  1. Hello :)

     

    We are going on A Cruise from Port Canaveral but we arrive to days before the Cruise and need transfer from Orlando int. Airport to our hotel in Port Canaveral.

     

    Are there transfer Companies you can recommend? And what is a fair price for this transfer?

    Most hotels in the area have a FREE shuttle you just tip the driver depending on how much luggage you have $1 per bag would be a guideline each way

  2. Thank you for this post Dave... Hubby and I were just ready to book our next cruise because it includes Amber Cove as one of its Ports and having never been there, wanted to go... Think we will pick another cruise for now and hold off on one to Amber Cove until we know for sure that Carnival will be stopping there and it's ready for us... Don't think Carnival will go to HMC if Amber Cove is not ready as most days its already busy with other ships and I don't want to go to Freeport or Nassau if I don't have to...

     

    I have spent 2 years here over the last seven years mostly in a non tourist area.

    i have been here for the last 2 months

  3. I am going (hopefully) in late October. It is also one of the reasons I chose this cruise. But from photos I have seen of Amber Cove recently, it does not look like it is anywhere near completion. HMC would probably be the only acceptable sub for me at this point, but I will have to take whatever comes my way.

     

    The buildings are all built i passed it today I posted those pictures 4 months ago

  4. I saw in a Puerto Plata English Newspaper that the opening might be delayed because a widening Program from 2 to 4 lanes for about 4 or 5 KM only about 25-30% is leveled now as of 3 hours ago when i passed on a bus, with only 96 days to go if because of the traffic that will generate when the ship arrives most of the tourist attractions you want to go to are in that direction.

     

    this is the main road to Santiago & Santo Domingo the 2 largest cities in RD

  5. It's $20 discount, not credit - so you wouldn't get $20 credit even if you paid for it. Since you won't be paying for the package, there is no discount to be given. Also the discount would be from the package price so there won't be a $20 discount from the possible gratuities either.

    I saw on the NCL page that it ends with july sailings

  6. Wanderingjew, how did pricing for that cruise compare to Carnival? Are you going to write a review? I'd be interested in reading your trip report and hopefully view pictures that are focused properly. Watch out for the one armed bandit and be careful with your selected excursions.

    for the 10 day adding the tips it was 1851.30 the 7 day glory for a cheaper suite it was 2760.75 including my 100 stockholder OBC and i dont need air and hotel and transfers in miami :D

     

    brilliant

     

     

     

    I am on a NCL cruise not with him the only excursion im doing is to Walmart in San Juan

  7. These are still 150% of the per person cost when the room is occupied by 2 people. I want a TRUE single rate!! I don't like paying so much more and getting the same product!!

    I got a 10 day on Norwegian Gem for 1720 in a Mini with a free alcohol package over thanksgiving

     

     

    BRILLIANT

  8. Curious if you are sailing in a studio on Getaway? I saw those and thought they were pretty cool. I had seen the promotion you are talking about so I looked into it. Unfortunately, I am really restricted for this next trip s to time frame and for when we need to go, just booking my kid's cabin was more expensive than the cruise including the cabin for my husband and I on the Breeze. And Getaway has one less day. I want to go on the Breeze. Looks like an awesome ship. Glad Getaway is working out for you. Someday when I have more flexible dates I might try it.

    Studios are BRILLIANT

  9. I also was looking at NCL. I travel solo, and one of those little solo closets:D, look pretty good to me, who does not spend much time in the room. Their newest ship Escape, solo cabin actually is working out cheaper than the Carnival cruise that I was eyeing. I am definitely going to wait a bit longer to make decisions for next year.

    I've done 3 cruises in a studio they are BRILLIANT :D :D

  10. I don't care what people wear on Elegant night even tho i wear my tux.

     

    My dissatisfaction is all the BRILLIANT cutbacks and the decline in quality of the product ( food & entertainment) When Uncle Bob was in Charge CCL had a great product at a great price.

     

    Now CCL has a so so product at a low price that might not be so good for what you get.
