  1. Thanks everyone. Looks like just the Guarantee X will be a better choice than XP. We really love balcony cabins, so inside or window not an option.
  2. Anyone know the difference please? Approx $3000 AUD cheaper for the X than the Category V3
  3. Docking in Bodo tomorrow.. I believe there might be a RIB tour that takes in coastline and the Saltstraumen, but can't find it online. Also, that there is a ferry across to a picturesque island? Any experience or other ideas please ?
  4. Would there be a taxi or other transport? It's too far to walk. Thanks.
  5. Thanks so much! So , the cruise guest services is saying there could be traffic too , would you think there is a likelihood we get trapped in traffic around noon at all on a Monday? All going smoothly, a 12 noon drop off would be ideal for a 13.40 flight, but they recommend 3hrs prior!
  6. Hi. We had booked a ships panoramic 3 hr tour from ship to airport, but now the timing is too tight as we are told we need to be at airport 3 hrs prior. 13.40 flight. Are there any operators who take you and luggage from Port to Airport and do a little scenic tour along the way?
  7. Thanks Grandma. Getting organised! We are so excited 10 days until departure! Just also reading through the spreadsheet tips, it says you maybe ask for another keycard holder? Are these sleeps with a clip of some sort? We usually get our cards punched and put a clip on them.
  8. I know there is no kettles, but if there has been any recent tea drinkers on Pursuit, do you know if they have Dilmah? OH wanting to pack some, thought I would check first. Cheers
  9. I have a few tours booked that only require 24hrs notice of cancellation, direct with company. I figure we would know a few days prior if we won't be docking, however, I always have insurance coverage for any unforeseen events.
  10. We will be in Southampton from the day before , needing to check out if hotel big bags. Unfortunately given a late embarking time 3.30 to 4pm. So, even if we have checkin time 3.30pm, can we drop bags around 11 and return to town? Is it an easy process, security wise., to return to town from Southampton port? Thanks
  11. Hi. I can't seem to search a particular forum easily so sorry if answered already. Wanting a good night sleep, just wondering if the twin configuration is just the big bed split (I heard a generous width) , or they bring smaller beds in? We had twins on Westerdam HAL and they were very narrow. Also, are the curtains good at block out light? Thanks
  12. I tried these instructions and it just bounced pay to payment after i hit "canceL" Does the shore ex have to be less than the OBC amount?? The payment screen still shows I owe the full amount, and now the OBC voucher had disappeared as i selected the authorisation to use the OBC for Shore Ex 😞😞
  13. Excellent thanks I think we might stay in the town given the advice from you and hallasm
  14. Just reading over all the great tips as our trip in getting closer! In Svolvaer, I was thinking of doing a self guided walking tour to look at all the old fishing buildings and interesting scenery. Possibly the eagle viewing RIB or other tour..... Do you know if our ships "cruising " of the Trollfjord we would see similar as the electric boat excursions taken from Svolvaer? Thanks again.
  15. Just been looking online, there's some that are 2000w versus 1200w. 220 to 240 v here in Australia. Thinking of the 2000w to buy but will the ships voltage etc handle it, I mean will it be a waste to get the 2000, just go with the 1200?
  16. Thanks! Do you think they are equal to a travel hairdryer? Won't have room for my larger heavier one and considering getting a small travel one, but not if the cabin one is similar power.
  17. Thanks Darcy! Did you have to hold down the power button?
  18. I always have difficulty searching these forums, I can only find older posts, sorry if asked before. Is there anyone on Pursuit recently that has thicker hair that has used the hairdryer? Travelling a long way and travelling lighter so prefer not to bring my own. Thanks!
