What would you suggest we do if we wanted maybe a beach day at this port?

Grab a taxi? There are 8 of us...

We are there1pm - 8pm on May 14th...is it even warm enough for us to hang out?

What beach closest to port would you suggest?

Thank you so much

Options....

 

The easiest option is the train - 1.... it's reliable 2.... reasonably priced (granted we have a surcharge on it).  Sadly - if you are in peak times - you might not get a seat... that's out pathetic rail system that combines suburban trains with the airport ones.

 

If you are in Sussex Street - the stops are with Wynyard or Town Hall - and the airport train stops at both - so no need to change.  Just google maps and check the closest one.

 

Getting to the Circ Quay departure..  depending on the time... it might be easier just to walk than trying to get an Uber to navigate all of the one way streets.. road closures.. Sydney has become a maze. 

 

At the end of the cruise - that's FAR FAR EASIER.. just walk from the Overseas Terminal over to Circular Quay - a few min walk.. and catch an Airport Train. Don't bother with a taxi from that part of town... the cost.. the time..  it's just going to be a pain in the ****  Just have an Opal card and get to the airport in about 15-20mins.

 

It all really depends on the time that you get out of Sydney airport.. and the relative convenience.

 

Sydney Airport and the surrounding areas / streets get CONGESTED... and it's getting worse. Arrival on a Sat / Sun will make it worse... the morning peaks are the worst.

Hello!

Trying to figure out if we should pre book a shuttle or how the best way to get from the Sydney airport

to our hotel on Sussex.

The from Royal Caribbean to the airport after our cruise.

Should we pre book?  Get a taxi?  And the taxi fare searches aren't working for me.

How much should we be paying?

Hoping you can help.

Thank you

Hello!!

Looking for  a one day tour of the LONDON area.

We want a smaller group if we can.  Not a bus full of people.

Any ideas as to where to look or who to contact?

Krista

I have reached out to CREW MAIL SERVICES and for $5 a bag they hold your bags until 6pm.

That seems pretty good?

They are 5 minutes from the port and 10 minutes from the airport

and about a mile to the beach walking.

Hello!!

We have a late flight  -10:30pm after our cruise.

Any advice on how we can still enjoy a day...even though we'll have luggage?

Storage place?   or Hotel that would help us?

What did you do or what do you know of??

Thank you so much

Thank you so much. I have been wanting to see this cabin as we are in 9003. You've made my day :D

Do you know if this room has bunks or just a sofa bed?

I have 2 boys. 7 & 11.

Thank you so much!!!

why do you want a few hours to explore Naples?

 

there are so many other interesting areas on Amalfi coast to enjoy

Hello!! looking for a shorter 1/2 day tour on our stop in Naples.

Of the Amalfi coast. Any recommendations?

Thank you!

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!!!

Very Helpful.

Hello!!

Looking for advice on where people PARK while cruising? If you just need to park.

OR

Is there a hotel that allows parking while you cruise?

We may need a hotel pre cruise so that would be great too.

Thank you so much!!!

Hello!!

We have done Dunn River Falls. This trip we are bring seniors with us.

Does anyone have advice on something to do besides a beach day?

OR...what beach you would recommend is thats your main option?

Thank you so much

I am furious!!!! Our cruise will now go up by $1800 if my husband wishes to purchase the drink package.

No notice...no email explaining? And our friends just paid in FULL. They can't back out now....and

didn't budget an extra $800 plus for this already expensive vacation.

I fly in and out of that airport a couple times a month

 

Are you looking for a place to eat

Place to drink

Place to shop

Or just somewhere to walk ?

Shuttle from airport

Ideally a place to grab a few items pre ship.

Fast food.

And then a quick scoot to the ship. ;)

RIght now:

still have to add 18% gratuities but posted for me are:

wondering if my new cruise friends will get this price

and if this IS A GOOD DEAL or not? :)

DELUXE BEV PACKAGE: $55 Canadian per day

DELUXE BEVERAGE PACKAGE AND VOOM ONE DEVICE

67.50 CAD per day

DELUXE BEVERAGE PACKAGE

I am a PLATINUM MEMBER.....and we are taking a Holiday cruise..

so sales haven't seem to be eligible on our ship.

Am I better off buying the drink alcohol / voom BEFORE the ship.

Are my NEW CRUISING friends better to wait until on the ship or

do before as well?

Any advice would be helpful :)

Also...can we still bring on a bottle of wine each and a case of water?

Hello!

We are 12 people arriving all at different times of the day before our cruise.

It makes more sense to stay in the same hotel with airport shuttle...

and then all of us catch our transfer to the port together in the morning.

Anyone have a recommendation? Ideally with an airport shuttle.

I like this one...but have read its not safe to walk around outside?

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Houston Intercontinental Arpt

Aldine Bender Road Houston TX

Any advice would be great. Thank you

I contacted them to get a quote for the CRUISE transfer through the ship.

Price: $105 round trip pp.

Cheaper to arrange a taxi or limo etc.

We used Galveston Express Last time.

Does anyone have any recommendations for private tours in Ho Chi Minh City?

Thank you so much

thank you so much :) :)

We are wondering what we can do in the Falmouth area with little ones?

They will not want to shop....is this more a day we get off the ship..walk around ...grab a quick bite...then get back on the ship for the day?

Or are there little kid things to do? That aren't a super long drive away?

Thank you:D

thank you!

I think we will have to cncel our trip to St Lucia.

Very disappointing but a huge risk to take

if only this week they are prepping the grounds.

Thank you. St Lucia is BEAUTIFUL :)

I am a frequent Cruiser ..leaving again in a month.

I have been to St Lucia twice by cruise...loved it so much we are booking a week at a resort there.

Papillon by Rex Resorts st. lucia - Gros islet.

I have encouraged a group of people to go here with us..based on reviews and

my own experience. It APPARENTLY is undergoing MASS renovations

and should be open Dec 2015. HOWEVER we have read that renovations haven't started and that our Feb trip there may not work out at all.

Do you know anything about GROS ISLET and if this hotel renovations

are started and looking good?

Hope you can help. We don't want to cancel...but realize we may have to :(
