  1. £1,000 cheaper! We may just have a look at that as well. Is there an option to buy a drinks package? Also are tips included? That can really bump it up, and i have read that some put 20% on each drink, which is quite horrendous. Thanks for any advice you can give. We don’t want to make an expensive mistake.
  2. Thankyou very much for replying .It is much appreciated The dining seems to have excellent reviews. We feel Marella have downgraded a bit with both food and drinks since we first sailed with them. We are still mulling things over, but don’t want to make an expensive mistake. A change is as good as a rest as they say 😉
  3. Anyone had an experience of Azamara cruises? We have only sailed with Marella but are interested in trying another cruiseline. Any advice good or bad much appreciated.
  4. Anyone advise me on this? Should have said 6 cruises as 2 were back to back in the Caribbean. Would really appreciate some advice on comparisons with other lines compared to Marella. We do like the freestyle dining. Don’t think we would like to be tied down to certain times and tables, seems very restricted, and sometimes you get hungry earlier or later 😉
  5. Hi inside cabin, Just read your post and am very interested in trying another cruise line. We have had 4 cruises which have all been with Marella. We like the fact that everything is included, e.g. tips and drinks. We have noticed that the prices have really jumped up, so would like to try another line. Could you please advise on what line it was £10 a day pp for a drinks package and waht was included? Also, which lines include tips? I have seen some that charge 20% per drink and also 15% -20% pp per day for tips. This really does bump up the price a lot. We would prefer a fly cruise. Any advice you can give is much appreciated. Thankyou.
  6. Lucky you. Unfortunately my hubby tested positive the day after we came home, and me 4 days later.
  7. We leave on Friday and ours came theough this morning, so you should get yours tomorrow. 3 days before departure.
  8. We are on it from 7th and cannot book restaurants either 🙄
  9. Hi Dinglebert, Can you tell me how you know your cabin has been allocated? Have you been given the number? Thanks.
  10. The cabernet sauvignon and prosecco on the a.i. were lovely, without the upgrade.
  11. Our luggage labels are ready to print 2 weeks before as said by Miller Cruiser. We have not prebooked our cabin. Hope you get it all sorted,as it is stressful when you cannot contact them. Have a great time!
  12. Thanks for replying Dave. We got them from Randox with a discount so £12 each to be delivered.Just hope they are both negative 🤞 Hope you feel better soon.
  13. Hi all, Just about to order covid tests. Marella says Chronomics or Randox for £13.50. I came across this Medicspot who says Tui customers get 5% off and also it costs £11.99. Not too sure about though, so would appreciate any advice. Thanks.
  14. It is also 1st of October. Just got an email saying between 1st and 31st.
  15. Hi Brummiejam, Thanks for replying. We have had 2 jabs and a booster but are not sure whether to get a second booster or not. There seems to be a lot of bad publicity about them, though i know you can’t believe everything you read…and i don’t read too much of the bad stuff tbh. We wondered if maybe it would stop at the emd of September, but i suppose Marella may not have reached a decision yet.
  16. That is good news. Do you think they may stop the covid testing soon? We haven’t been away for nearly 3 years, so still a bit wary.
