So I assume that's San Juan Cruise Terminal. Thanks....I have to drop my rental at sju, and then I'll Uber there 🙂 I just noticed I booked this cruise 1/9/23, so over a year in the making.
-
Please post which San Juan terminal you dock at on 1/25. Thanks

I've been on Nova and going on EJ next week. I was wondering how the cabins compare to Seabourn, Regent and Oceania mentioned in #61.
-
Would you be able to rank them on entry level (balcony) cabins? I know EJ and SS are ~300sqft interior + 70sqft balcony. Thanks
-
The $200 pp penalty can be applied as FCC to your next cruise. I had it done twice.
-
I booked a cruise last January before the price increase, and then was able to apply the 2 cat upgrade and get 500 euro OBC. Then during the black friday sale, I booked 3 more cruises online at 40% off, without any problems. I have an EJ agent that promptly takes care of my requests, (although other EJ agents, well, no so much). I'm really happy with EJ.
-
The escalation and pull with EJ is just the story your TA relayed to you, right?
-
Thanks for the review. I have my first EJ cruise coming up in 3 weeks (and 3 more EJ after that, the sale was just to good). What restaurants should I make reservations for ahead of time?
-
The new schedule was available last week, just a little tricky to access on EJ's site. I booked a 2026 cruise (on sale and on their site) last Tuesday.
-
I have, I just cancelled and rebooked, but I don't use a TA.

I agree, and hotel reservations have always been easy to cancel. For several years now, airline reservations have been refundable too. Even Explora's $200 cancelation fee is available to use as a future cruise credit. The sale is just too good to pass up. I hope the extended schedule becomes available at sale prices. -
Looks like Explora 1 is back in the Caribbean for winter 2024-25 and on sale.
-
It seems from pictures and videos that OT's don't have a "desk". (a space in the counter with a chair or stool convenient for laptop use). Is that correct?
-
I departed Nova on Friday instead of Saturday, and walked of the ship with my luggage about 7:30am. Breezed through CBP, got and Uber to JFK for 11am flight.
-
More than twice the size of the regular ones. More than 10' from the door to the railing.
-
The creaking in my cabin #8091 was so bad, even in calm seas, I had to switch cabins. I think the ship is unbelievably stable. BTW they had a special on the premium wifi and I got it, so I never tried the free wifi. It has been close to perfect, although for some websites your need a VPN to change you perceived location.
-
Thanks for doing that and posting. I appreciate it.
-
Thanks so much. I really appreciate it. I wish I had 100% confidence in the butler's claim. Obviously the problem in your cabin on Explora and mine on Nova was known before we boarded. There is no way it could have gone unreported, and yet, with both ships far from full, they put us in there anyhow. Thanks, again.
-
I'm in 6090 in January, I'm guessing that's next door to you. If you happen to see the current occupants please ask if they are experiencing the same problem. Thanks
-
Oh no, I'm on SS Nova now with the same problem, really loud creaking. I finally had to switch cabins. I on Explora in January.

I got a check in email for my 1/25/24 cruise today 10/25/23. It took only a few minutes to complete the check in and I received my ticket and luggage tags within 5 minutes after that.
-
FYSA I don't have and haven't had any problem signing into and accessing my reservations on either cruise line.
-
Many people have had and are having problems with Silverseas as well.
-
I have never had a problem. Are you using some kind of apple device? Try using a regular PC.
