  1. OK... I believe you expressed the opinion that the only action you saw that was wrong was cutting the line. If that's the case, then I don't agree with you.
  2. This is the sort of thing crying out for concierges and butlers.
  3. So, you're politely waiting your turn at the buffet to put a few chicken wings on your plate and a dude cuts in front of you and takes the whole tray so he and his buddies can continue the pool-side party... no problem, more wings will eventually show up.
  4. Well... there's an obvious difference between UK and Ontario health care systems! Publicly funded is available for those 65 to 70; otherwise thise over 50 can simply pay for it if they choose to do so.
  5. Have you had vaccination(s) for shingles? If not, perhaps you should ask your doctor about that.
  6. OK... use the website, that's usually my preference for this sort of thing. I'm sure you meant £, not $ for the currency. Don't know when you need to arrive at LGW, your schedule seems to be rather elastic.
  7. Unless you're hauling around four or more bags or have significant mobility issues Canada Line from YVR to cruise terminal area is likely your best choice.
  8. Canada Line is part of the Skytrain network: https://www.translink.ca/schedules-and-maps/skytrain
  9. I like the buffet but won't comment on the quality of the food there compared to the dining room; in my view, that's pretty subjective. I can say with 100% certainty that you will not see a lobster in the buffet.... ever!!
  10. I lived in Sydney for a few years.... Baddeck and AGB Museum are good, but I'd recommend Fortress of Louisbourg as a better use of your time in Cape Breton.
  11. Have a look at this site: https://fareharbor.com/embeds/book/blackwoodtour/items/99562/?flow=80144&full-items=yes
  12. From BCN to Hotel Gaudi - take one of the Aerobus routes to Placa Catalunya then either walk down La Rambla to your hotel or take the subway for one or two stops. https://aerobusbarcelona.es/?lang=en From your hotel to cruise port - walk down La Rambla and catch the cruise port bus (Blue Bus) near the Columbus Monument. https://www.barcelona-tourist-guide.com/en/faq/cruise-ship-terminals/shuttle-bus-barcelona-cruise-terminal.html https://www.cruisebus.barcelona/en/
  13. It doesn't. Wash your hands thoroughly with warm soapy water.
  14. How do you know any of that? About the only reason anybody knows much about noro on ships is because it must be reported. It's possible the local church social led to all kinds of problems you and nearly everybody else are unaware of. Iste mundus furibundus.
  15. I think people.... mainly passengers... became complacent about their personal hygiene with the reduction of Covid-related measures to reduce the spread of disease.
  16. What is the connection between being unmasked and norovirus?
  17. Yes, I see you're arriving in Bangkok on Feb 11, 2024. Perhaps they'll add more excursions over the next couple of months. Good thing is that the cruise ends there so that may provide much more flexibility to find a reputable private tour operator. I expect you are already on one of the Roll Calls for this cruise to find like-minded fellow passengers?
