Thanks so much everyone!

our flight arrives in Auckland 11:30am but our cruise has 10:00pm departure. I have called HAL to inquire what time we will be allowed to drop off our luggage and have gotten conflicting answers. we were hoping to drop them off at the terminal early and then do some sightseeing. can anyone offer their experiences with this? Thanks so much!

Princess has a gift card promotion this week until next Monday.

 

Buy a $500 gift card and get a free $25 gift card (which must be used by the end of next February).

 

So if you can make use of that free card by the end of February, you may want to look into this promotion.

Can the $25 free card be applied to an existing booking?

Cafe du monde is open 8am inside the Riverwalk, next to terminal.

Beautiful photos

I used twice. Carnival & southwest , had no problem using the credit card associated with my paypal account.

I used to do that when I got 1 point/$1. Now that it is .5/$1 more rewards are had using ebates.

just go through a portal...ebates or airlines..

We buy them on eBay @ discount all the time.

Tip: go through southwest rapid rewards portal first & get extra SW points in addition to discount!

Got mine, used them to pay for our excursions same day easy peasy !

Looking for feedback and recommendations on horseback riding with 2 children who are experienced. thanks!

Thanks

We were hoping to book this cruise during the Fall of 2017 but doesn't look like Princess will be offering it. Wondering if the schedule for Fall 2017 is complete? Or perhaps their still deciding ?

St Peter Port crossings into town from where you land at the end of The Albert Pier are changing next week. The crossing by the Town Church will close as that area reverts to two lines of traffic Southbound.

 

 

 

That means going via the Bus Station into town, or walk along the Old Harbour and up Pier Steps bring you out in the middle of the High St, much nicer but steps.

 

 

 

Picture on the blog if you want to see what is closing.

Nigel,

We will be on the next sailing of Royal Princess arriving on Friday the 14th..are their any special activities to look for that day? Thanks for your informative posts!

Hi All

Have cruised quite a few times with noro code Red etc, Have always found Princess to be very professional in the handling the situation, so find it odd that passengers were treated in an inhuman manner, we need details

 

Yours Shogun

Shogun, thanks for updating us. We are on the next sailing.

It is my understanding from my own TA that you can upgrade, but doesn't hurt to call & ask :)

New Orleanians hate it when people call our streetcars "trolleys". :eek:

Agreed, their streetcars ;)

I would add Johnny's for overstuffed poboys for a late lunch,enough to be shared😜they close 4:30pm

I'll add Elizabeth's for those who don't mind/like getting off the beaten path.

Praline Bacon! ;)

Elizabeth's has been there a long time,definitely a locals hangout...I highly recommend their praline bacon also but it will require a cab ride.

We were planning to spend the day here but someone in our group is interested in jet ski? Does anyone know if there are jet ski rentals closeby?

Looking for suggestions on a nice beach with jet ski rentals & inflatables for our teens to enjoy?. Thanks

If you like scavenger type walking tours, strayboots dot com does offer tours that are fun. We took our granddaughters on the garden district tour over the summer, they thoroughly enjoyed it.

If you are familiar with Anne Rice, she recently restarted her famous literary walking tours.. you can google both

It's great to so many SASA PEEPS!

Gambee, I am a new fan of your reviews. I also own Sony NEXF3K & i love your fisheye pics. What type a lens do you have, is it a sony lens?
