I think if you are on the Thomson flights it is bonded, yes they take it to the ship for you. We booked through a different cruise company and flew Emirates (amazing airbus 380 flight!!)

Enjoy

Evening all, Well done losers! ;-)

I got weighed yesterday and have lost 6lb of my 8lb cruise gain, am more than happy with that, will get the rest off this week.

...16 weeks go til my next cruise!

Hope we all have a great week xx

it did vibrate yes but you got used to it! if you were sunbathing on the lido deck your bits wobbled lol.

Any cruise ship can get noro, even the best of em!

It was lovely to be on ship with wooden decks and railings, proper!

Some places were just WOW, Very impressed with Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Bahrain and Muscat I could have missed and not lost anything, same with Khasab if I had not done the Dhow cruise... Which was AMAZING!

Had a great week on her, a wonderful little ship! Any questions I will try and answer...

I'm back!!!!! Had a great time in Dubai/UAE and got weighed yesterday, drum roll... I gained 8 pound, was disappointed, I could have eaten soooo much more! Lol.

Not back at work til tomorrow so am not starting being good til then so making the most of it

Counting down to the next cruise now.. May 15th, Alaska!!!!

Got off the celebration 2 days ago, she is a great little ship! I have been on a massive one with all the bells and whistles and can't compare them, the celebration is what I call a proper cruise ship, you are closer to the water, can see it all the time, proper wooden decks, just wonderful! Enjoy

Thank you for everyones input, help and tips I have received and have read!

I will be back on here to share with you any knowledge I pick up regarding Dubai, Bahrain, Muscat, Khasab and Abu Dhabi.

EXCITED!!!!!!

Happy New year to you all!!!! Well done on the losses and the starting of being good. Let's hope, Well not hope, Lets MAKE this year our year for losing the lbs!!!!!!!!

I weighed in Wednesday and lost 1.5lb taking me to 32lb lost for my first cruise this year which I go on on MONDAY!!!! So will no doubt gain a few back when I return in 2 weeks!

Come on people, WE CAN DO THIS! x

just had a look in my notes for my Dubai cruise (NEXT WEEK!!!!) and I did a few routes on a taxi fare finder site months ago and they say 41d, £8.50.

I couldn't find anywhere that there is a free shuttle to the Dubai mall, I'll be glad if there is one! The nearest I could find was the free shuttle to city center mall which is also avery near a stop on the metro

133 according to ncl website.. (luckily I have another cruise in 7 days to tide me over!)

Happy Christmas to all!!!!!

I weighed in today, lost 3lb this week, was hard work over Christmas but I had still had plenty of treats...chocolate and alcohol mainly but made sure I was VERY good the rest of the time! 31.5lb lost, 12 days til next cruise EEEEK

Hope everyone has a jolly Happy New Year xx

thank you! am really excited for my cruise, my official wi day was the 21st (every Wednesday) so I thought that would come under the week before?

Hi to all

I lost 2.5 this week to take me to 27.5 lost, was hard work with all the parties and temptations this week. Am managing to stay on track cos I am focusing on the 'treats' I'm going to have on my Dubai cruise....17 days to go!

Happy Christmas!!!

Hi, what do they charge for a day pass at these hotels?

 

when I priced it up it worked out around £20-30pp depending which one you went with

I'm doing slimming world, joined the day after my last holiday, new I wouldn't make that much difference looks wise but just being on plan and in control makes a lot of difference mind wise! Have got lots of new dresses for Jan cruise, can't wait to get them on each night

just check if you can actually purchase them, When I went to Vegas last year I had found a groupon deal and I wasn't allowed to buy it, actually rang em up and was told I couldn't! Had to be an offer specifically sold to people in the UK

Season's Greetings!!!!

I had WI yesterday and lost 2.5lb, taking me to 25lb lost in 8 weeks. 3 and a half weeks til my next cruise, I want to hit the 35lb mark before I go, only a little thing called CHRISTMAS in the way... got 2 do's today, one sat, one Tuesday and again next Thursday!! can only eat lettuce leaves inbetween lol

Let's stay focused... x

am on the Hoonah website, I know what you mean now, ta.

Thanks for the input...

I have started jotting down notes from you all to look into, lucky I have a job that involves me sat at a computer doing nothing most of the time!!! means I get to do lots and lots of research....

F.I.S.H.E.S?

Hi to all, forgive yourselves, thanksgiving is a big deal for you, you enjoyed it!!!!

Can I introduce myself and join in this weekly weigh/shaming!

My name is Lorna, I'm 37, married and live in Derby, UK.

We are going to Dubai and cruising around there in January and today I booked a 14 day Alaska cruise in May... I NEED to lose some weight! I started slimming world 7 weeks ago and as of today I have lost 22.5 pounds.

I look forward to getting to know you all and join in your success!

Red - are you a fire fighter??

 

We live 80 miles east of SF - we offer help at anytime. We have cruised Alaske before and cruising again in 9/2017. Few years ago, we flew to Alaska - rented a Harley and rode around the state for a week - cruising is great but riding the interior was Fantastic

 

agreed on the price, if that includes air,,, GREAT. last time we flew to South Hampton last July, it was 1300 RT just for the air

No not a firefighter, I am just a big fan of them! Especially NY ff's, met a nice one in NY in 2000 but that another story lol... Got any pics of you in uniform??? joke ;-)

Love the Harley idea, I am from a family of bikers and the oh is one (well not since he last came off it!) My dad treated himself for his 39th birthday and had a brand new HD shipped over, its his pride and joy!

You understand why I had to book at such a great price then? when we went to Vegas last year I shopped around and got 'cheap' flights at £1500 for both of us, It's sooo expensive isn't it!

Is that including flights? I assume you mean the Norwegian Sun, 14 days from San Francisco to Vancouver, 15 May 2017. The current starting prices from NCL are £1369 cruise only and £2710 fly/cruise. So if you got the flight, hotel and cruise for £1499, that's an amazing deal! :)

Yes that's the one and yes does include that... you can see why I couldn't hang about and got it locked in! the funny thing was I rang my husband and just asked him if he trusted me, that I had found the holiday of our dreams and it would cost 3 grand... He said book it! not finished work yet and not told him where we are going!!!!!
