  1. From you I'm hearing "Save the fifty bucks" --- thanks.
  2. Some friends of ours (of Swedish descent) have highly recommended Sjätte Tunnan Medieval Restaurant in Stockholm. Has anyone here had an experience?
  3. "Free" mini bar is of no value when you have SS. Except for the tiny snacks that is.
  4. Are the "premium" wines worth the extra $25 pp? We are not wine snobs but don't mind spending "well spent" $$$.
  5. Maybe changing "gratuities" to "service charge" - which is what "gratuities" really is.
  6. You're assuming that something in writing from Viking is worth the paper it's printed on. Bad assumption.
  7. I wonder how to find out. You damn sure aren't going to get a straight answer from Viking.
  8. Two of us were hauled in a van from the hotel in Vancouver to the airport at about 3am. So much for air plus.
  9. The aircraft is configured by the airline - is it not? People blame the aircraft for how the seats are positioned/cushioned?
  10. On a clear day you can see Denali from Anchorage. There are, however, very few such days.
  11. Push the button - save 3.3%. Watch out for Viking's accounting system though - it was developed in the Middle Ages and hasn't changed since.
  12. Don't remember how far it went before but don't be thinking you're going to see a mountain.
  13. Where did the sea route maps come from? Very interesting.
  14. Very good advice above. All I can add is: Research thoroughly, prioritize and be ready. Check MJV often.
  15. I'm guessing our post extension in Iceland will be well attended but probably no way of knowing. Much appreciate the info. Thanks!
  16. Last day of extension (heading to airport)? Any cost? Where?
  17. Maybe will run more smoothly in Iceland? Thnaks!
  18. We will need a Covid test to return to the US following an extension in Iceland. Does Viking make any provision for this or are we on our own?
  19. They haven't been filling up their ships since this whole deal started .
  20. When did the $250 pp for the loss of Gulf of Finland ports happen?
  21. It's been suggested elsewhere that Europeans in what Americans consider tipped jobs consider themselves professionals and might even find a tip insulting in that it suggests they have a "lower paid position."
