Barecove

We are 4 senior couples booked this cruise. First time on Carnival for my husband and I. Looking forward to this cruise.

My friend and I are crocheters. We had fun attending crochet/knitting group daily meeting organized by NCL staff. 

It would be fun I there is enough interest to create a crochet/knitting group meeting on this sailing. 

If yes, do you know how to go about it? Who to contact to enquiry on this sailing? 

Thank you in advance 

Thank you the post. It is very helpful info.

We are looking for similar sailing on 2019 on HAL Zaandam and wondering if HAL offers day trip excursion to Machu Pichu while Zaandam docks overnight in Callao (Lima). No clear answers from EXE dept staffs.

My TA just confirmed that NCL offers $50 deposit starting 1/30/17 to 2/5/17

Thank you very for info. I have search for info about Nanaimo but haven't found much till I saw your post. It will be one of our ports stop on NCL Sun next May 2017 sailing. If you visit there before next May please post your thoughts and things you do there. Thanks again

Can someone recently sailed on NCL Sun confirm the following statement please ?

"A $15 charge if you want to use the Lap pool, whirlpool and the hydro pool inside the Spa room". How long are you allowed to stay in these pools? Thanks

Thanks

Hi martincath, thank you very much for your wealth information. We were in Vancouver just for day and we did city tour, had lunch at gas town and dinner at someplace in Chinatown.

Thanks again to all your answers. I printed them out to bring with us.

Hi xlxo, are you local? I want to go cruising with you :)

Hi xoxl, wow! Thank you thank you very much for your suggestions.

They sound excellent and so detailed.

I also want to thank all of you having me great suggestions.

I really appreciate for your time research and to write these steps to help stranger. You are good people.

I am so impressed and pleased. Thanks again.

I am sure we will enjoy our short time in Vancouver.

Thank you for all answers. I am very greaful.

Ok, So idea of dropping off bags ourselves to airport sound good. The take train to Aberdeen center where 'eat street'..We only want to check out some restaurants from that area, get some fresh fruit, pastries and dimsa. We are not interested on shopping or wondering around those malls. We may spend around 2 hrs there.

Any suggestions what we can do after and get back to airport for our 7pm flight to US?

Hop on hop off bus that that us to aiport? Husband is not a walker and adventure as I am.

What type of pass should we get to cover two of us from cruise port to airport, from airport to Richmond -birdhouse station and bach to cruiset or airport?

I read from Canada line website, it mentions about zones fare.

One more question please. What kind of imported tropical fresh fruits (like mangosteen, longan, rambutan,lychees )are available in May and are they available at Vancouver Chinatown stores?

Thank you very much

Thank you, do you know if we can take a train from aderdeen centre directly to airport if we decide to have CDS transfered our bags to airport? Thanks

Thank you also, because we don't know how long train rides both ways take and how long we need to explore Aberdeen center. we never been take this adventure before ourselves; always booked organized tours, we don't want to be late on our flight. We were in Vancouver before. Does any tour take us to airport by 5 after the tour from cruise port?

Thanks

Hi all, we will disembark at Canada place on 5/16 around 8 or 9 AM and our flight to US is 7PM.

We plan to drop off 2 big luggages and a carry on bag at CDS baggage service at cruiseport, take canada line train to richmond bc to a aberdeen centre to eat some good asian food, then get back to cruiseport before 4 to get our bags and take train to airport. This way we have to make sure we be back before CDS closes @ 4.

Another option is to have CDS transfered our bags to airport $40 up to 4 bags, $10 for each carry on bag to their location in airport, then take train to Aberdeen centre to eat some good asian food, then we take Canada line train from Richmond to airport without stopping by cruise port?.

I also found from this forum that taking lugguages on Canada line to airport require some planning what part of train to depart, etc...

We also can take taxi $35 per car from cruise port after get our luggages.

Which way would be best and what way would you do?

Have you used CDS service before? Are they reliable?

Thank you

Thanks

I.am with you on this.

Thank you very much jgmpuma for the info.

I am wondering if cruise ship RCI allow us to bring vacuumed packed peanut, coffee and beignet mix to cruise ship and carry home with us when we disembark.

I am sending this question to RCI to see if it is OK to bring them to ship and take them back when we disembark.

Thanks again

Hi,

A friend of us came back from NOLA and told us he had Peanut Trading Company Cajun Fried Peanuts while he was in NOLA. He said someone bought it near French Quarter area. These are so incredibly addictive.

We want to buy some of those peanut, Cafe Du Monde Coffee and Chicory and Cafe du Monde Beignet Mix while we are in New Orleans next month.

Can someone give us some suggestions where to get them inexpensive prices?

Any place near cruise port, French quarters are better choice for us.

We like to buy them and bring home as gifts to our big family.

We know we can order from internet but since we will be in NOLA to cruise from there, we must well get some and bring home ourselves.

Thank you,

I totaly agree with Darrel. w

we were on BOS repo last October from Boston and saw the problems

Do you have pictures of this cabin that you can share with me?

I am very sensitive with motion and I so worry that the location of this cabin (it is located on the starboard side on the forward of Deck Eight).

Thanks.
