  1. We were on the TA before you and was surprised at all the free movies We thought the section was good S class does feel very comfortable, E class is just loud some repositioning cruises are still very good value
  2. Use the search function , there are a threads already in general tell your waiter she is gluten free , they listed what is gluten Gree on the menu as ask for the next day menu and than she can pick what she wants
  3. 🤔I find most people in Suites complain the most atleast on the Celebrity section Suite on most ship are at 10% of the ship , but on the forum atleast 50% of posts are about complaints in the Suite category
  4. Sunwing has always had a limited on carryon , like most carries , it been listed on their website for years
  5. @CDNPolar Imagine that person now that has a carryon, a backpack, a shoulder bag, and a duty free bag? Why would they have a backpack ( if it small like in the post ) & shoulder bag, that would be 2 personal items to go along with the carry on ? one thing AC should do is have a weight restriction for carry on, AC has no weight restrictions for carry on
  6. maybe because of this 🤔😁 There was a woman who had a meltdown in Elite breakfast which was pretty funny on the Equinox TA The woman and her partner had left a window table long enough for the staff to clear the table and reset it and sat another couple there, and everyone knows the staff does not move fast their , but who would on a couple of hours of sleep , so they were gone for a long time The woman return with some food and started to yell at them that they took their table it went on for over 10 minutes
  7. We have done 8 westbound and 5 eastbound TAs Much prefer the westbound TAs on a Southern route as we like to explore the EU first than relax on the way back to NA and arriving in our home time zone Having 25 hours days is a lot better than 23 days The one Northern route was an Arctic TA with stops in Iceland & Greenland We done 2 RCL TAs which we will try not to do again , unless we have a lot friends on it Our usual cruiseline is Celebrity , we find it hits the sweetie spot between cost and quality They have speakers in during the day , food is very good banquet food we also prefer Celebrity old ships We have Lisbon to Argentina for Nov 2025 15 night in a balcony for $3700 USD for 2 in a balcony with drinks and wifi And in Nov 2026 Rome to San Juan 15 night in a balcony for $2500 USD for 2 with drinks and wifi
  8. Most companies are doing this now a days No nothing to worry about
  9. Expensive does not mean good 😉
  10. On our cruise , that ended earlier this week our steward usually clean the room around noonish , he thank us for not complaining to have it done earlier It never upset us that it wasn’t done earlier, as really only the towels need changing as we had use to towels to prevent water all very the wc floor we also signed up for Go Green Also he was always working very hard
  11. Ok , I forgot about your other cruise , Checking BA to YYZ flights home , PE is $1600 CAD on AC , it is direct with a stop in Brazil, 14 hr flight our Equinox TA this year was $1666CAD for in a balcony with basic fare 🤣
  12. I would go with gigsky eSIM if I didn’t have a WIFI included There is a lot YouTube video about gigsky online now
  13. They do have business class https://www.flytap.com/en-ca/tap-experience/fly-business-class?_gl=1*ecwb5r*_up*MQ..*_ga*Nzk5ODM1NDA0LjE3MzA5MzE1NzI.*_ga_MN85FYPN4N*MTczMzUxNDg4OC40LjEuMTczMzUxNTAyNy4yOC4wLjA. I found their Econ class to be pretty good on a 7 hour flight from Yyz to Lis and a good selection of movies
  14. since we were in Lisbon in this November for 4 days , we were thinking of going to Porto for a couple of days At the moment it is $599 CAD for basic Econ to Porto and $699 CAD to Lisbon on Air Transat from Toronto , AC is about $1200 CAD it did get down to $340 CAD this pass summer on Air Transat and TAP I believe I read TAP will have direct flights from SFO to LIS starting soon
  15. Just off the Equinox, if we had a drink package I wouldn’t of gone , the service is so slow Wife’s coffee 9 of 10 days was just maybe ok Gluten free selection was terrible not that any where on the ship was much better it was also noisy
  16. I wonder if you are a vet will you get a free carryon and have the number of check bags decreased ? Also with an Aeroplane Credit card will you get free carryon and decease?
  17. Difference is tips are included in the price on cruises from the UK
  18. Drinking 5 Sodas a day is bad for you 😱 unless it is water down with Alcohol 🤣
  19. It was the AC app not Find Me app
  20. It was some section in the app about luggage , don’t know exactly where in the app
