I may have drunk all the BJ HW!!!!

Exact departure times of all the shuttles to various destinations- September 2024

Make that 10 years! There is a delicious Bon Jovi Hampton Water rose wine. Or Whispering Angel rose ( but that price varies by ship any may not be within your allowance)

Do you remember the 18n round to Venice and back? Now that was what I call an itinerary!

The same boring itineraries from Southampton that they do every year I suspect. A few up to Norway, a few down to Spain ..

I’m on Voyager now: she’s going in for a short 2 week dry dock at the end of this October prior to her TA crossing

Update: September 2024. Price has increased to €1.60pp e/way. The ticket booth mentioned previously is actually outside the further port ( where the ferries are). If you dock nose in - facing the buildings you are at that one. Otherwise the other dock you are parallel to the land and they should have a manned ticket booth.

We hired a car and drive to Orvieto for the day. Allow 2hrs each way. Beautiful scenery

Yes this was info on board the ship. Note they “fib” saying there is no public transport in Ravenna, when we all know there is a bus 🚌!

Sea bus prices September 17th, 2024

Boarded yesterday: one of the quickest processes ever. Straight through and onto ship within minutes. We arrived about 11:20am RCI Voyager of the Seas.

Totally agree! VV is so refreshing with outstanding food quality and presentation, the staff are efficient and friendly and simply Doing Their Job; they aren’t trying to be your best friend to get tips or begging for a 🔟; it’s so nice not having to sign any paperwork 📑 when you get a drink or finish your meal. I think they will shake up the cruise market - especially here in England where we Brits generally hate all that faux friendly stuff.

7.30 and 9.30

@caribbeanboy - perhaps you can contrast and compare to our recent review!? The food wins hands down! I’m actually thinking in my upcoming RCI cruise this weekend I’ll be saying “ it’s not like this on Virgin”!!

Tea bags are PGTips and plenty of skimmed milk. for a comparison with RCI…

Her dry dock has been slightly extended as she now arrives in BCN on 23rd April so she only has to get round to Cadiz. She desperately needs decor and furniture 🛋️ upgrades!

We also commented on the ridiculous amount of times we were asked for a 10 whilst on Anthem in June and we complained it was ruining our holiday experience. The “10” song in the WJ was the final straw.

It is well documented https://www.peta.org.uk/features/donkeys-on-santorini-abused-and-used-as-taxis-please-help-them/ Overweight tourists are the main problem to this continuing abuse.

My shore ex only shows 1 person booked. I’m hoping that under DHs account it shows him as booked ( but of course he doesn’t have an account!!). The amount of shore ex OBC remaining has not altered either 🤷‍♀️

No one should even consider to ride the donkeys: they are kept and treated in appalling conditions. I personally had witnessed barbaric treatment of the poor animals. Do not support this.

We booked brunch at the same time as our dinner reservations

Sadly no diet tonic!! Don’t they understand we Brits need Fevertree in our gin?!

If we take the 8% you can guarantee there will be a 10% deal next - lol!! And if we don’t take the 8% then the next deal will certainly be 5%!

Just received 8% offer. Not sure whether to leave money earning interest … we are not spa people and we don’t do shore ex, so not sure what would we do with OBC and there is no longer a casino where you can cash it out 🤔.
