I believe it is CD Eric that leaves in Lima. Capt G will start with us in Tahiti. I could be wrong but Capt G has told us this since sailing with him this summer and in FLL just a week ago.

Thank you so much for letting us know. We were really really hoping Iwan would be the F&B on the WC.

You can call Azamara and ask for an updated invoice. It will show your excursions and what you paid for them. They can email you the invoice unless you have a TA and they will have to email the updated invoice to them. Once your TA receives it they can forward it to you in an email. Hope this works for you. I did this several times recently. Good luck.

Who is the Captain (Captain G or Smith)??? Thank you

A question for you...just curious. We booked our 2024 Azamara world cruise on board on Nov 2021. What benefits did you receive for booking your WC on board? Thank you.

We will be going on Azamara WC. I recommend using your TA if they give you a large rebate, OBC etc. If they dont find one. You will be leaving alot of money on the table. Even if you have a TA we have been able to contact Azamara direct and ask alot of questions, book excursions, book flights, etc. If you have more specific questions you can email me at florida.mvr1 at gmail.com Best wishes.

I can't comment and be sure if the refund would be OBC or your original payment. Obviously inquire with them once on board. It might be different because your purchases would be for only a single voyage. Mine was very complex because of the number of excursions we booked. You are so right. I was hoping they take the 10% off the total and then I would pay instead of months later getting a refund. Again, mine was very complex and I was working with the excursion manager for weeks while I was onboard to book these excursions. Not all had been loaded to the system etc. I was truly grateful of his efforts. I guess my reply was to give a little hope that as of July they were offering 10% off future excursion bookings. They even left an advertising flyer in the cabin. There were a few that are excempt from the discount...overnight excursions, grand prix.... Hope it works out.

Yes, as long as it is not an immediate back to back cruise. In July I purchased the majority of our January Azamara World Cruise excursions. Once I arrived home, I called Azamara to pay for the excursions. I had to pay the original cost of all the excursions (which I paid with OBC and personal credit card). Once on the WC in January....I will be refunded 10%. I hope that helps answer your question and I hope it works out for you.

If you have time can you post F&B Manager Dejan Silavski background. Thank you

We could not agree with you more. You are 100% right. We were on the Onward for 33 days this summer. We were so disappointed in the included generic Azamara label wines. We were going to upgrade to the Ultimate package and realized that the wine options were so limited and not worth upgrading. We spoke to the FBM, that we have known for years, because we are on the Onward for the 155 days world cruise. We were told the wines were going to be changed very soon. Might sound weird but we really enjoy our wine and our biggest concern is bad red wine for 155 days on the World Cruise. IOHO we really don't think additional cost for wine and corkage fees should have to be paid on our 155 days of a World Cruise. We are very loyal to Azamara and are seasoned cruisers but bad red wine on the World Cruise will be the red line wether we return back to Azamara.

If you have a chance and you are still onboard the Onward....can you tell us about the Red wines that are included and not upgraded to the ultimate package. Are they still using the generic Azamara label for the wines? Thank you for your time and any information. It is greatly appreciated.

Oh ok. Sorry. Ill ask FFMilesJunkie. Thank you

On 3 back to backs June and July 2023 (Onward)....yes for all three segments. I would ask the cabin stewart if you dont get one.

Thank you very much. I really appreciate the assistance.

Thank you for the assistance with the Australian Visa. For travel to New Zealand does anyone know if cruise ship passengers should obtain the $17NZD Visa or the more expensive visa? Does anyone have that webpage or app info so I can obtain the New Zealand Visa. I think in early 2020 I made a mistake and paid for the expensive one. Any help with the New Zealand Visa for cruise ship passengers would greatly be appreciated.

We went to visit the "luxurious" Casino de Monte-Carlo in July. They really could have used this sign in the fancy woman's bathroom. A Chinese lady had squatted on the toilet bowl to use it. She left her shoeprints on the seat. You can't make these things up. An attendant was called to clean the stall. Thank you for starting this post. I got a chuckle from the many photos posted.....and a good education .

We were on Azamara June/July this year (3 b2bs) but because we had to move rooms we had to go twice to the muster drill. We moved room because there was an issue with ours that they could not fix in two days. They eventually fixed it. Anyhow in June on the Onward the muster drill was done with everyone attending at one time in the dining room or theater. On the Onward in July a few passenger sat a time in each designated muster station (dining room or theater). I have no idea why it changed but we prefer a few passengers at a time.

Thank you...good to know.

Below is the form we filled out even though we have a TA. We just returned from being on 3 b2b in June/July 2023 (33 days). The benefit was applied after I filled out the form earlier in the year. After a week I did call Azamara and they had to "link" all 3 different booking numbers before we received the $400 per leg extra of OBC. Hope it works out. https://www.azamara.com/cruises/back-to-back-cruises

On the Azamara Onward: June 17 - approx 480 (Venice to Rome ) June 28 - approx 570. (Rome to Barcelona) July 8 - Approx 520. (Barcelona to Venice) July 21- Approx 330. We left on July 21st and the numbers were very low (Venice to Istanbul)

Kevin and Nan. We will be in the living room most nights on current Onward ship around 5ish pm. Usually on starboard side. Kennedy is an excellent bar server that Usually helps us and knows us by name. . My husband is bald...so hopefully you can find us and join us one night. Vicki and Ron

I call customer service. I live in the US. I use the following phone number 1-855-292-6272. Their hours start 2pm Oslo time. I hope it works for you.

Can I please ask how you received this promotion. We get an email every day from Viking and did not get this one. If it was not for a post several days ago about the CSA23 promo we would have missed it. We booked the Sept 26th Montreal to Ft Lauderdale cruise but we had no idea until your post about Chile, etc. Thank you for the info on how you received the promo and thank you for posting all the specifics on this promo.

Thank you so so much. Just booked Canada and New England Scenic Shores Sept 26, 2023 Viking Mars.
