I do believe there have been other instsances posted here, where someone got a steal of a deal and paid in full at the time of booking, thinking that the error is pricing couldn't be corrected. I wonder if this is one of those instances? Why would anyone pay in full so far out?

I'm sorry to hear it was not up to par. Perhaps Journey has become the "training" ship?

Our onbard performances on the Scotland Intensive and the Ireland Intensive last year were the best I have seen!

Very, very well said!

Just received this email today; we're cruising on Quest May/June. Followingthe link though, the price is more than the email, so perhaps they have rethought the increase and it will stay 26.95. Oh, there's an IPA available, at least on the list; I hope it's onboard too!!!

only thing showing up is a tour to Padua ending there...

Does Azamara still offer the transfers onboard?

I thought that the upgrade to ultimate was only available for those who received an experience more package as a promotional offer from Azamara.

really makes perfect sense to me

wow, kind of harsh?

wow, that's great!

Yes, please let us know what you find out 🙂

Totally agree, in particular for the indulgence package for a cruise that long.

I've never seen it available onboard; a call in to Azamara may be helpful. I've never seen anything advertised through Azamara for it; may be that they cooperate in the sense that they work with the company for drop off and pick up?

That is a TA thing then, not an Azamara issue, so you can't blame Azamara for that. I'm very close to a TA that lost ALL commissions for 2020 and most of 2021. I understand why some would now have a cancellation clause, but the cruise lines don't.

I'm not one affected, but thought that the compensation is more than fare. The commission, that's on your TA, not Azamara.

The particular port(s) would be my guess too.

I've seen refreshments out every time we've been waiting to embark.

I have friends that got an owners suite for an excellent price!!

Is this the September 21st cruise? Prices were really low when the new itineraries were released.

Their messages on the phone have been in need of updating for a very long time…

I love your posts and your photos! I hope you will continue 🙂

I've never seen an IPA, even with the ultimate package. Azamara does allow you to bring as much of your own onboard as you like, when you embark or at any port you stop at; that may be something to think about doing.

If your reservation was made without your Circle ID number, you were kicked down to a first time cruiser. Did you use a TA or book directly? If TA that you have used before they should have your circle number. Have you searched through your old emails for something showing your loyalty level?
