  1. We are booked on this sailing, we are Owen and Brad from Chilliwack, BC. Our first time on Pullmantur, but we are experienced cruisers on many of the major lines.

     

    Great to here from someone else on this ship. I just posted in the correct place. Other cruise lines roll calls. Navigating here can be confusing.LOL.

    Will you be here on Grande Canary before the cruise? I just arrived yesterday, Jan 7 and am staying in an airbnb walking distance to Old Town.

    This will be my third cruise with Pullmantur and I know you will enjoy it. My phone #is 12085363255 and I have whatsup or can text when I have wifi.

  2. I was on the crossing in May to Lisbon. This was my first Pullmantur cruise and it was GREAT!

    Drinks from 10 am to 3:30 am! Almost all included a few premium names that cost $1 to $2 to upgrade. I was drinking Baileys and cola on the included list. Mojitos, pins coladas and tequila sunrises all included! At dinner in the dining room they pour red, white or rose wines.

    Bars at the pool and the lounges, so enjoy!

    Thanks, for the help on smoking policy. I will keep an eye out for folks going on the May through September monarch cruises to see what they have to say.

     

    I know that the concept of cheap airfare is different for everyone but for me the splurge to business class (with a lie flat seat) is one I value since it lets me be up and running when I arrive across the pond. I don't remember the cruise critic policy about posting things like this but I got a Lufthansa business class one way from Tampa to Frankfurt and then on to Bilbao for $2500. I used an online flight aggregator called alpha guru.

     

    The one way coach flight from Panama City to Tampa on Copa was $283.

     

    Also, I second the request for more info about the all-inclusive drink service. Is it only at meals? Only at meals in the main dining room?

     

    Does anybody know if other packages are offered (for a fee, of course) that allow one to get soft drinks and or drinks at other times?

     

    Thanks,

  3. I took the cruise May 28 from Cartagena, Columbia to Lisbon, my first Pullmantur cruise, and had a wonderful time. I expected that the drinks would be low grade and was very pleased that even Baileys is on the list. Even if you want something not on the included list, the premium you pay is $1 or $2 .

    The food was good, be prepared that there are breaks between meals that the buffet is closed.

    The later dining was actually nice. And the language (my lack of Spanish) was not a problem.

    When I found out the ship returned to Central America in September I wanted to take it back but my original plans had me back in the states at the end of August. I just found out I don't need to be back then and was thrilled I could still book this cruise.

    I'm looking forward to making many new friends.
