Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We're booked in an Aqua Suite on the Ascent Oct 30 sailing from Barcelona to FLL. I know we can’t predict the weather but I wouldn’t want to pay for a suite if I could not enjoy the Retreat outside pool deck.
  2. Have you sailed yet in cabin 1601? We are on the Eclipse in June 2024 in cabin 1606 right across from 1601.
  3. Thank you for the great suggestions. I can’t wait until we can plan a more extensive land trip in Europe so we can see more. This time we only have a few post cruise.
  4. No, we have not been on a Rhine River cruise. It’s definitely on our bucket list. Thank you for the great suggestion. I will definitely check it out.
  5. Hi, We will be disembarking our cruise on Sat, May 4th in Kiel, Germany. We got an excellent deal on Delta One from Frankfurt to JFK on Tues, May 7th. Then we’ll fly JFK to DTW arriving late on Tuesday, May 7th. We take care of our grand babies a couple of times a week and hubby really wanted to fly home the same day we disembarked to have time to recoup from our vacation before having the grand babies over. I’m trying to put together an interesting itinerary for the 2 1/2 days we have before we fly home. I think this will convince hubby to keep our Delta One flights. Do you have any suggestions on interesting sights between Kiel and Frankfurt? We’re both retired and not too interested in night life. We both enjoy historical sites, museums, nice restaurants, hiking, and beautiful sites. We are also ok with taking small group tours in any of the cities we visit. I’d really appreciate your feedback. Thank you!
  6. How's the weather been so far? We’re thinking about doing the Dec 2024 LA to Miami on the Bliss but I really like warm weather.
  7. How was your cruise? Did you purchase the vibe or thermal suite package? I have this cruise booked in reverse from Miami to Seattle in April 2026. I was able to get an angled balcony cabin 12180. I have plenty of time to watch for price drops. I'd appreciate any tips you could share. Thank you.
  8. @Two Wheels Only do you know if cabin 13178 on the Encore has a much bigger balcony since it’s angled? Do you get a bigger balcony if you get an angled balcony on a lower deck? Thank you for your feedback.
  9. Thank you for so much help. Which hotel would you consider the best location next to the waterfront? I’d prefer if it was Hyatt, Hilton or Marriott so I can use points.
  10. It doesn’t have to be the absolutely closest. I have points with Hyatt, Marriott, Hilton and Choice. I’m trying to find a mid-range hotel where we would be comfortable for one night and convenient to the port. I was looking at Hilton locations near Exchange Place and Canopy by Hilton Jersey City Arts District has great reviews. I’m not sure it’s worth 70K points. What do you think of this hotel? Thank you for your feedback.
  11. What is the closest mid-level hotel to Cape Liberty for a 1 night stay?
  12. We leave next Tuesday and I’ve had my grand babies all day yesterday and today. I’ll finish packing tomorrow. I have one more question about restaurants. I was able to get an 8:00 PM reservation on Tues, Oct 10th at the Oro Bistrot Rooftop for Cocktails and Aperitif prior to our evening tour of the bottom floor of the Colosseum. It looks like a great place for photo’s of the Colosseum. But the prices look super expensive, 25 Euro for a cocktail. Do you think it’s worth the cost?
  13. @Pantheral, do you remember the company you used for your private limo tour in Naples? I’m booked with a ship excursion and I’ve read some negative reviews that they spend too much time visiting touristy shops. I’d like to cancel the ship excursion and get 6 other people from our sailing to join us on a private excursion like you’ve described. I found this tour through Trip Advisor and it mentions "The only Tour Among all of the Operators of Naples that Allows your Group to Visit Positano's Downtown”. The tour provider is Thebayofnaples. https://www.tripadvisor.com/AttractionProductReview-g187785-d25077156-Private_Tour_to_Pompei_Sorrento_and_Positano_with_English_speaking_Driver_Guide-Na.html
  14. Could you please share what company you used for the private limo? What was the approximate cost?
