Norwich Cruiser

Symphony

Morning

I’d definitely pay and think the extra is worth it for the dinner menu it has many more options that I think the additional cost over lunch is worth it.

Our favourite is deck eight

1. Southampton 2. Barcelona 3. Fort Lauderdale The proper Venice via the people mover was also pretty good.

We’ve never been charged even on the occasions the waiter has opened a bottle for us.

I’d definitely book 150 Central Park.

No

I mentioned $500 as another poster gave that amount and said that you could pay it down once on board.

The completely unnecessary step to the process maybe isn’t. The reason I suggested it as an option was because a few years ago we were cruising on Mariner of the Seas and we were speaking to some people on deck who’d had a problem with their on board account as they hadn’t kept a check on there spending. I’ve really no idea what they had spent or what the limit was back in the day. But they’d obviously gone over whatever it was and hadn’t realised. They went to purchase something on board again no idea what but were refused and asked to contact guest services. When they went to guest services they were informed of the reason. So they then went to their stateroom took however much from the safe and gave it to guest services to clear the account. On checking their telephone messages they did have a message from guest services telling them they had reached the permitted limit. So I was really just trying to be helpful.

That’s right no need but you also have the option as I said of giving them some money if you so wish.

Go to guest services on embarkation and have them remove the credit card. You can then give them say $500.00 in cash to hold for you and go against your final account. If that runs out and they need anymore money added during the cruise they will call your stateroom and ask you to add some more.

We’ve only eaten there twice once for lunch and once for dinner. They were both good on each occasion but nothing special. If we went again would maybe go for lunch.

Chops Grille

On Vision class ships we would board early and head to the windjammer there really isn’t to many options.

Only need to book 270

On all our cruises this year the staff served you the ice cream.

Chill Beach at Coco Cay is far better than anything at Labadee.

Hotel Carlton on the Grand Canal is excellent and superbly positioned about a three or four minutes walk across a couple of small bridges come out of the hotel and turn left for Piazza Roma.

Depending on numbers I’d book a private transfer or taxi.

Dined in BLU on Edge yesterday it was pretty good that’s all won’t go again.

The last time we sailed on Wonder we had to dine the first and second nights. We’ve had success on other ships using it the first or second night and then later in the cruise.

Edge class is our favourite

Yes exactly what we do also. Its just so easy and the modern world same as airline tickets. When we see people with folders and such we to always avoid them. No printing off passes at home no papers or folders to carry.

Thank you for taking the time and trouble to write such a fantastic honest review I think your style is great.
