Your steward can always bring you more. No problem.

I was responding to this question: This was to explain that Barcelona, for them, was just a port stop. So, no worries about immigration, as it shouldn’t take very long. On 6/1/2023 at 10:23 AM, cms2001 said: We are taking this cruise - Athens to Rome. We wanted to go to Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. If we have to go thru immigration, what time should we book our tickets for?

Or, the cabin steward could just give you a sheet for it.

We’ve seen that on Carnival and RCCL with the service dog in the stroller, dressed with a bow to match the lady’s outfit! 😳 They have puddle pads for the dog and there was also a place on the promenade deck marked for dog’s relieving station. They walk them on the promenade deck or upper sun decks.

No, nothing to do with this question. The person asked about a port stop in Barcelona. Of course you can disembark in Barcelona, we did many times.

You can ask for a new mattress, if in stock…or a mattress topper. Ours was worn on one side on the Crown also.

Let us know what works. TIA

Disposable spa slippers work. Or, Dollar store slippers.

Depends on what tours are offered, what time the ship arrives. From Athens…Barcelona will just be a port stop, not a turnaround or disembarkation, so you should be quick to get through the port. Maybe 30 mins tops. From the time you leave the ship. Our arrival was very early, 5 or 6 am. Sagrada tours probably don’t even start until 9am? Don’t remember. I would get off, grab a taxi and plan to be at the church at least 1/2 hour early.

Same one. It will automatically be updated. Batteries last about 30 days. If you need a new battery, GS will change it for you.

Were you on a turnaround? Were you coming from a non EU country? I think it was because it was our first major EU port coming in and they wanted to stamp our passports. I bet if you’re embarking from a EU port and doing a turnaround or b2b you wouldn’t have to get it stamped, Regardless, if you were on a tour or wanted to just get off, you could get off with everyone else. Might have to take passport and get It stamped though. That’s what some of the b2b’s did, instead of waiting around to be escorted off and back on.

No. Reusable baggage tag holders. https://www.amazon.com/Highwind-Suitcases-Compatible-Celebrity-Essentials/dp/B017BVF8L6/ref=asc_df_B017BVF8L6/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=198102652462&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2545479506281473019&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9010904&hvtargid=pla-407616990154&psc=1

That’s ODD! 😂😆

@Steelers36 is spot on! Great suggestions. I’ll add Gibraltar…get on your roll call and see if others, maybe 6 of you or 8 can do a taxi tour of the Rock. It’s perfect, you see everything. Walking around town, would not show you anything. We used this taxi company. Great tour. http://www.gibraltartaxiassociation.com/

On the App, 1st page…ocean ready, payment methods and packages…

Ditto

Could this have been the 1/2 off beverage package sale, recently offered in the UK? Almost sounds like the old package. Your TA/CVP should be able to check on it for you.

Maintenance?

Here’s the kicker… They should give you the BA category or better… They could assign you in a deluxe balcony and that could be in an aft area, but a bigger cabin. So, that is possible or a mini suite aft or fwd would also be an UG. Good luck!

Thanks for the feedback. Do keep us updated.

No, not any limit paying for a cruise. Never had a problem. I no longer try to add GC as OBC precruise, do to the lack of training of PCL agents. I just take a printed copy of my egift cards once OB to GS. No problems.

Please do give us feedback. Best if you post your resolution in this same post, so others can see it. TIA

That’s the maximum you can purchase of OBC. On PCL website. Cruise personalizer- Onboard Credits Onboard Credits cannot exceed $1,500 per booking. Review confirmed packages Credits appear on your stateroom account and are automatically applied to onboard

Those are not allowed to take OB. 😂

No, that does not sound right. The CVP is Exactly the one who should help you! They work for PCL, who made the errors. I’d call the CVP back and tell them, you need them to sort this out. Since this was a GTY rate, is the deposit non refundable? Sounds like the agent put in the mini suite cabin and called guest services to see if they would honor the mini suite, and instead of ignoring the transaction with the mini suite, they ended the record, which booked the mini suite cabin. The CVP should be able to check the history on this record and straighten it out. They may not have midship open right now, they should put you back to GTY and honor the midship category later then. Are you sure the category of balcony that you chose is only midship and not other decks or areas? You can look at the deck plans and check the decks that would be available in the category you paid. You probably did already, but to be sure.
