They do have a really good App though.  And ordering drinks on your phone - amazing.

Thank you Cathygh.

Thank you for the review - much appreciated.  We are sailing on Millie in a few days time, around southern Japan and South Korea.  Can I ask how dressed up the evening chic nights are?  I’m slightly confused with the dress codes tbh.

I’ve just checked the price - it’s £9.27 (35%) to upgrade from classic to premium.

I believe there is a flash sale on now - check and see the price.

Not sure of the % but we upgraded from classic to premium for £6.99 pppd.  Was a really good deal.  Keep your eyes open for deals.

We are on a Japan cruise April 2024 on Millie.  Cannot wait!  Thanks for posting your beautiful pictures.

Thank you so much for posting this LadyBerard.  We’ve just upgraded our package for £6.90 per day so a great saving for us (this is for a Japan cruise on Millie April/May next year.

We had this done on a Princess cruise for our 30th wedding anniversary.  Very pleased with the photos.

Jenizor - we’re currently in Southampton Ibis awaiting our cruise on Iona tomorrow.  Really looking forward to it,

Incidentally it took us 8 hours to drive down from Preston to Southampton today.  Every motorway was queued.  

Thank you Welshmanatsea.  We are currently in your beautiful country in our caravan.  Mind I am biased, both my parents were Welsh.

We had our bid accepted 3 weeks before our cruise.  This was for an upgrade from an inside to a balcony.  We bid about £20 over the min bid - so £160 each.  Considering we only paid £499 each for our inside we’ve done very well indeed.  This is on Iona, 7 night Norwegian Fjords cruise.

We’ve sailed on two Princess ships - the beds are the comfiest we’ve ever slept on.

All flights to Italy for today were cancelled, so I’ve been told.  We’re currently sitting in our hotel awaiting transfer to the ship.  Had nice dinner, a good sleep and pleasant breakfast.

thefer - I hope everything goes to plan for you.  RC have really looked after us.

So we got a call from RC at 6.45am to get a flight today for Vienna at 13.15, then another flight to Bologna this evening.  They’re putting us up in a hotel in Bologna but we don’t know which one yet (currently sitting having breakfast at the airport).  Happy holidays!!

Still awaiting news from Royal Caribbean re new flight times/day.  Luckily we are both retired so can be flexible.  One day strikes very common over here in Europe.  

alexgtp - the strikes only for one day 4/6/23.  It’s just typical it’s the day we were supposed to be flying to Italy.  

Thanks - will do xx

We are due to take a 7 night cruise on Explorer on Sunday 4th June.  We’ve just been informed our flights been cancelled (Italian airport workers strike on Sunday).  Luckily for us our flights where arranged by RC so they are trying to sort it out for us (and I expect a lot of other people).

Anyone else in the same boat?  (Forgive the pun).

Thanks for all the information.

moposh - thanks for the info.  Will bring my own.

Good afternoon everyone.  We’re off to sunny Croatia and Greece in 16 days time on the Explorer.  Can anyone tell me what the hairdryers are like onboard (hoping to leave mine at home if they’re ok).  Thank you in advance.

Our ship was Explorer sailing on 4th June.

Mykonos is so much nicer than Athens - true.  But RCI have switched from Mykonos to Athens.

We are just on to our TA to book this drinks package.  Our cruise is next June on the Explorer.  It’s a good price!!  Thanks little Britain, we owe you a drink.
