LHT28

Interesting Did the prices go up since you booked the cruise? The BROCHURE FARE listed is double what the O fare with air/O life is for my cruise The Cruise only fare is $1150 less than The OLife fare just an example

The fee is no longer applied to another cruise Your TA may or may not be able to work out something to have the Admin fee transfered but do not count on it now

On the invoice they use the "Brochure price" then do their discounts but my bottom line is the same as the cruise only fare listed on the website

It could be handled in such a way not to distress more people this close to the schedule changes Most are on the RTW cruise so they do not have much choice but go where the ship takes them But for those maybe joining the ship soon they could just say "due to the situation in Myanmar we will cancelling that port & we are working on an alternative itinerary" Yes some will be upset & some will understand but to leave people in limbo is not doing anyone any favours But the silence & denial that anything is wrong is just making people angry JMO

Good work 😉 I wonder if they will allow you to give the extra Oceania supplied OBC to the crew ? I tried that a few yeas back & they would not do it Anyone donate their Oceania OBC to the crew with success?

yes https://www.oceaniacruises.com/special-offers/land-programs

Vacations should not be this hard You have to drive yourself nuts with O before you get to the ship I need a vacation just booking an O cruise these days 😃🍷

You are paying for the non refundable OBC you could just skip the O Life perk & pay as you drink or buy the Prestige package Do the math & see what works for you

Just get the luggage tags at the port Check you Blue bin incase someone tossed them 😉

I am sure Windsor will have other things to keep you busy Enjoy

Fingers crossed I would not book p/u before 8 am though that is just me though 😉 What time is your flight?

maybe it was the previous ports We came from France before SOU But on other cruise we had stopped in Falmouth before disembarking in Dover that time we were on the bus at 6:30 am but it was many years ago

Thanks did not think Carnival required passports for all

They usually do the refits in Italy (not always) & somewhere someone posted it was scheduled in for the shipyard in Genoa Italy Maybe someone who was on Riviera will comment if their were fed scraps from the pantry before she headed into dry dock This year it seems all lines were having supply issues, shortages of food & staff

It reminds me of a Wendy Frosty only coffee flavoured

Do they require a passport to sail?? Good to have but usually US citizens can sail on closed loop cruises with BC & Government issued photo I.D. Or has that changed ?

Winter is back 😲 Yes probably better to ask the porters just to be safe for quick luggage delivery

In 2019 it seemed to take forever to get off We had to do a F2F with the authorities I would not book a pick up before 8 am We were stay in Southampton so were not rushing but it was after 9 when we disembarked

Call whoever you booked with & ask

my guess is Prepaid grats but who knows 😉

Deck 6 will mostly be Blue you could put your new cabin number on them or just get new ones at the port Cabin type may have different colour coding OS may be different than PH same as the room cards

What deck are you on? Tag colour? Sometimes you can just put the new cabin number on the tag you will still get your bags

No usually one of the entertainment crew or other staff member They will also have the needle point classes in the morning in Horizons

I guess I clicked on the wrong part of your post yes sometimes CC is a bit difficult 😃

Not sure how up to date this is but you could contact the harbor master https://santabarbaraca.gov/things-do/waterfront/cruise-ship-visits
