  1. How do you get the headings to go along in a line? Mine are always in a drop down list under the downward arrow
  2. That would be me posting that ! I have now escalated this to Bayley's team to investigate why there is no shuttle, and why guests have not been informed that there is no shuttle!
  3. Iceland 🇮🇸 and Ireland 🇮🇪 But personally I’d do the North Cape one which you haven’t listed!
  4. Friends on Symphony TA boarded yesterday - Deluxe onboard being sold for $80. With d+ discount this worked out at $64pppd.
  5. Why would you leave lights on in your cabin at night and why would you leave a/c on in a room you weren't in? What a waste of energy resources.
  6. I use Monzo, Clarity or my new Chase account - all convert fx at market rates.
  7. Wow! Good question. There’s nothing under Gifts and Gear… I guess call them. You used to be able to buy in $25 chunks as you say at favourable exchange rates!
  8. They charge our UK phones etc much faster then the USA plug.
  9. The UK minimum wage in 2023 will see further increases. Beginning on 1 April, 2023, the National Living Wage will stand at an hourly rate of £10.42, the rate for 21-22 year olds will be £10.18, for 18-20 year olds £7.49 and for 16-17 year olds it will be £5.28. £10.42 is $12.34 ! Just for comparison! You guys earn more. Would Americas tip in a macDonalds? Just asking out of curiosity?
  10. No - only USA/European plugs on all RCI ships. Suggest you use the European outlets as they charge faster.
  11. You can now see the status of your Up in the Planner. Not sure if this is only visible to those who have bid? I’m thinking this will push Up prices up as I’m sure not everyone received the email or even knows what Up is before?
  12. It’s been like that in 🇬🇧 UK for several years. It was very quietly introduced with no announcements
  13. Late summer she’s doing the Limassol routes apparently
  14. Has anyone had clarification yet as to how many vouchers, if any, are redeemed to get 40% off a bottle of wine?
  15. No, it’s 3pn in a JS or above. 1pppn for a regular cabin 2pppn for a JS or above 3pn for a solo in a JS or above.
  16. I haven’t bought a drinks package since I became D. Now P. If I really want a 7th drink I can buy it. Ashamed to say I sometimes go to bed with unused vouchers 🤫
  17. @seb530 with a drinks package - you need to do approx 8 drinks a day to make the drinks package pay for itself (not a problem for any true Brit lol). However remember it isn't only booze, it covers fresh squeezed juice, posh coffees, waters to take ashore too. Not sure if you are on Wonder (you mentioned the biggest) but if you are then she is truly incredible, mind blowing, has some amazing venues (namely the Mason Jar) where it is great to sit in a rocking chair listening to music and not worry about the cost of drinks. Or sit in Central Park under the stars. RCI is far superior to P&O in everyway. You will not be disappointed. And if you pay for the drinks package in advance then it is out of the way and you can forget about it! It will be much more expensive to buy the package on board. Not sure when you are sailing but there usually is a sale around 4/7 weekend. You can buy the package now and if it is cheaper in July you cancel and rebook it at the lower price. Caveat is that it can take a few weeks for the refund to appear.
  18. The last UK promo was £60pd but it ended at the end of February. It was only for European sailings so it wouldn't have helped the OP. This one was bookable via the Planner, unlike the one prior which was £40. I think it is £78pd now. Outrageous.
  19. Who said anywhere that you will be asked for more money? You have bought a package and that is it!
  20. I have called 3 times and I have been told 3 times they only offer a shuttle to/from BLQ airport or to/from VCE airport. They are not offering shuttles to/from the city centre (Tronchetto). I do not know if this is unique to our cruise on Enchantment or not, and if transfers on Explorer are operating. It is all very frustrating.
