Great help! Have an awesome trip!

It's going to be chilly on deck up north, so a sleeveless tank will likely have you shivering. Ships are usually air conditioned quite well, so having a jacket or sweater handy is always a good idea, no matter where you are cruising

Head nets aren't a bad idea. They are cheap, don't take up much space in your bags, and are environmentally friendly. We did 2 nights in Myvatn awhile back and the bugs were annoying but that was about it. Didn't see many insects at all in the rest of the country and we've been there many times

I'd pick the noon flight.

Vigur for Isafjordur or any of the Nature trips (Myvatn, Dettifoss, etc) for Akureyri. But really, it's all about what YOU want to see, not what @janetcblor I want to see. Why did you pick Iceland?

Yes. That is a reseller that looks legit. But it isn't. That website "neil simon theater" IS NOT THE WEBSITE FOR THE THEATER. Please read my prior comments about how to find the Official Seller, which I will repeat here. If you start at Playbill.com and click the SHOWS link then pick your show (which is MJ) and Box Office Tickets you get taken to the ONLY LEGIT SITE to buy tickets, which is Ticketmaster. There are many other safe places to buy your tickets, but you will pay extra fees for zero extra benefit. I don't know why anyone would do that intentionally. When you go to any other site you are paying too much, plain and simple. Seat Geek is the official seller for some shows but not this one. They are likely doing resale here, buying tickets themselves and then reselling for more money, or they are facilitating resale from folks who bought tickets and can't go or who are trying to make a profit.

Good advice. And the safest way to FIND those official sites is starting at Playbill, as there are lookalike sites for shows as well. Ticketmaster lost most of their Broadway contracts to Seat Geek about a year ago. They still do Hamilton but not much more

Most theaters sell tickets at the box office. What @Lois R is trying to do is buy tickets online, and websites that appear to be theater box offices are usually resellers masquerading as the official seller. You shouldn't buy tickets at www.richardrodgers.com or gershwintheater.com, etc.

No! The theaters do not sell tickets. Start at Playbill.com and click through. Most shows are officially sold by Telecharge or SeatGeek, but there are a couple other smaller official sellers, including Ticketmaster.. I believe the Hudson Theater is the only one that sells their tickets on a website named for the theater There are companies who buy websites like "neilsimontheatertickets.com" that are TOTALLY not legit!

Best way to know if you are buying from the OFFICIAL seller is to start at Playbill.com and then find the list of shows and click the Tickets link there. Lots of "lookalike" sites that do sell legit tickets but add big fees to the price without adding any extra service. Avoid things like Broadway.com or any site with "Newyork" in the name as they are not the offiical sellers

@Momma Mojito, you have quoted 2 posts but not added any information. If the replies have helped you, please let us know, if you need more information, please let us know, also.

I've never heard of anyone having luggage rejected on Amtrak. No checked luggage just means it all has to go with you, as I think you know. There is room for storage of larger items at the end of each train car, and smaller items can go over your head As long as you can manage it all . . . You might want to use the services of a Red Cap if you are boarding and/or detraining at a major station (Boston/NYC/DC). Tip them $5/bag or so and you will get early boarding and not have to worry about wrangling all those bags

City to Airport is about $125-$150. BL is near the airport so I would expect this fare to run about $100. There is a decent "Taxi Fare Finder" website for Iceland taxi prices that you might want to check

It's Massachusetts. Things move slowly there. They may not know the location of the ship until a day or two before.

Can confirm that non-flash photos are ok in the mansions. In the daytime they are full of light anyway, so a flash isn't needed

"You could rent a car, take a taxi (expect it to be very costly) and I don't know how you would get one back if the driver does not wait for you (even more costly if you spend several hours there) Renting a car is really the only way to do this. Unless you are REALLY accomplished bicyclists!

There is also public transportation near the port that can get you to the North End Boston's Chinatown hasn't been a "war zone" in at least 25 years. I've been there multiple times a year back to the Mid 1990s Maybe a Fenway Park tour would be of interest?

You can walk to the Cliff Walk or take the trolley or a cab/uber

Goðafoss isn't part of the Golden Circle or the South Coast tour. It is in northern Iceland. I've done both tours 3 times. Both are exciting to us every time. If I could only chose one it would be South Coast, but we are more into the spectacular scenery and glacier you see there, you don't get a glacier on the Golden Circle

Can you find others to share the tour on your Rollcall?

That’s the difference between a country with a gun culture and one without a gun culture, We can only dream of something like that here

Why would there be armed guards there? Iceland is one of the safest places in the world.

You can post the name here. We are allowed to ask questions about providers, otherwise what is the use of the forum?

I agree with Princeton. If you are sailing from Manhattan and can STAY and SEE Manhattan for a few extra dollars or points, you definitely should do that, instead of being stuck in a bleak area near an airport

Maybe the BL bus picks up at the pier? I haven't looked at their options in a few years.
