Not sure I was ever really enthralled with them. But that is just me.

Lot of clamping down on cruise stops in Europe, especially Venice.

Free plus $25, consider it a donation

and then talk about the outrageous fares they charge to get this wonderful experience.

There is a message there

I think you are reading too much into it. It is as it always has been. They follow the money (like they all do). The economics of a bigger ship are real, significant and sitting in front of them. They simply are doing what the market wants.

Variety is the spice of life.

Enjoy, sounds like a great deal.

There are still plenty of ships for the smaller ships. The mega’s are the destination, not the ports. There a re plenty of ports for them to sail from and plent for the smaller ships. It is not a one size fits all.

Bingo, we have a winner.

Shorter, not smaller

Or stops it can go to.

So who is (making smaller ships? Certainly not Royal, in fact, the largest monstrosity of the seas is sailing at 132%. Must be putting them in all that free space.

Once you debark, enter terminal (either with bags or collect them) you go thru customs. Can be extremely quick and a pass thru (getting a “welcome home” comment) or a quick check.

Options are a good thing.

They were unique, tasty and very convenient.

I agree she is not doing the right thing. For the last time, her keeping money owed to customers might be criminal, and potentially fraud. It is NOT, in any shape, way or form Insurance fraud. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with Insurance, despite whatever she said or says. It is between her and her customers. You restating incorrect things does not make it any more true. If there is no insurance claim paid, it also has absolutely nothing to do with any insurance premium I will move on.

At the very least it significantly cuts down on the options.

There are 5 new ships on order now, 2 more Excel class and 3 new class (even larger).

Not sure what you are referring to, but they will be taking possession of two P&O Australia ships (and the third will be liquidated (so to seems). This will happen next March.

Almost all do, the leader of that pack is HAL.

I can virtually guaranty that no matter what it is or is not, it will most certainly have high exposure here.

What she submits to an investigator might be fraud (depending on the facts and timing of what she did or did not do). That would be between her and the customer and any legal entity, and only information to the insurance claim adjuster (for consideration in the adjudication of the claim).

No, she can tell them whatever she wants. It has absolutely nothing to do with the client and their claim to an insurance company. Might it be fraud to the customer? Maybe, but certainly not insurance fraud.
