ok, Thanks - I am trying that approach (Not a Facebook user, so missing all that activity!)

Seen various social media posts and forums on this, without seeing much clarity. If anyone has any information from Azamara, that would be helpful. Using the excellent Gov.UK/foreign travel advice I have gleaned the following "entry requirements" (current July 27th) but it doesn't mention cruise ship visits - maybe not a lot of those to some of the nine destinations, and of course is written of UK nationals Maderia, Tenerife - normal EU entry rules, so no visas required Dakar, Senegal - No visa required Banjul, The Gambia - No visa required Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire - VISA REQUIRED, no exemptions Takoradi, Ghana - VISA REQUIRED (also Yellow fever certificate) Luanda, Angola - VISA REQUIRED, no exemptions Walvis Bay, Namibia - No visas required Capetown, S Africa - No visa required Hopefully Azamara will get exemptions for the 3 visa required stops and/or clarify well in advance! Any corrections to the above ?

We have never had any problem with getting wine topped up at lunch or dinner - except you may have to ask a few times and/or make ot clear you enjoy your wine - and don't wait until your glass is empty! In "normal" times the waiters are all quite busy. Also, I think those who treat the waiters as people not servants do OK too.
