I agree with all of these comments. We have always got the best deal through Ez air and sometimes fly into one of their cities and take a separate flight to get to the cruise departure city in order to visit a landlocked city not available on cruises. We generally love ez air. One word of caution, last summer we flew on Eurowings Discover which was listed as an offshoot of United. It was not worth it, we had to pay for a glass of wine on an international flight and the seats had no room. I am 5 feet at best and I had about 2 inches of clearance between my knees and the seat in front of me. When the person in front of me put their seatback, I could not get out to go to the washroom. Only silver lining is because I had status on United, we did not have to pay for bags. Never again.

They had a show with traditional Greek dancers the night of the Pireas port (Athens). They were very good and the show was well attended.

Did the 28day last November on the Crown. If you have seen the movie Moana, that is the cartoon version of Moorea. Like a fairytale. We took a tour on a private company starting with a V and it is one of my top 3 tours of all time, maybe number 1. We took a small outrigger boat with about 12 people. Swam with sharks and rays, went snorkeling, barbecue lunch on a motu. When contemplating this trip, keep in mind that (although we had an inside cabin) with the Princess plus package the trip cost about as much as a round trip airfare to Tahiti. Plus that airfare included two stops and took over 24 hours.

Tell him to look down for me, I might crack 5 feet on a good day.😂 Verymuch looking forward to meeting you and for this trip. On the Tahiti cruise our CD was Olivia Guthrie and I see she is on theEnchanted. She is delightful and very hard working. BTW we have a wonderful private tour out of Livorno to Cinque Terre. If you are interested I can send you the details or you can look at it on the roll call. See you soon!

I recognize the names. Were you on the Iceland/ Greenland voyage last year or the 28 day Tahiti? See you guys in Take 5, so glad to hear they are not ditching it.

We are on the Enchanted 10/22 and we’re greatly looking forward to Take 5. We truly enjoyed listening to jazz in the Bayou Steakhouse bar on the Island and were planning on frequenting this venue often on our 22 day voyage. Will be be greatly disappointed if not there. We also spoke to some musicians on the Caribbean who said it was their favorite venue to play. Princess, if you are listening, remember your target audience. We are Elite on Princess because it is one of the last cruise ships that recognizes the desire for elegance.

When I look at the app it shows no packages, although on the website under travel summary they show. Any suggestions?

The Palm is at the back. I believe in the app you choose a time and you can pick from private or shared table, if not, you can just request on the first night and they will accomodate you.

I have to try that. We will be cruising on a ship with Take 5 for the first time in October, and am interested in any other suggestions of their specialty cocktails. In return, I am going to add my suggestions: DH is very fond of the 24K (rocks, no salt), Chairman of the Board, and Pirat and Gulden Draak Belgian beers. My favorites are an afternoon Aperol Spritz accompanying a good book in Crooners, Chocolate Mint Martini after dinner (not creamy), Espresso martini, and my secret menu addition - the Crouching Tiger Martini (vodka, lychee liquor, raspberry purée). Us wine drinkers need to keep filling out the surveys to get rid of the “generic” wine offerings.

How is the Take Five? We have not been to one yet and are really looking forward to it. Do they have specialty cocktails?

After almost 250 days at sea, I finally got it through my head, if you want the best dining experience, choose the rear dining room. The most experienced waiters are in that dining room and you will get the best service. We were on the Caribbean in April and had Agustin and he was terrific, as was the assistant waiter Greggy.

MDR menus can be seen on the app for every night once you board. You will go to the Dine My Way section - View or book daily reservation and there is a box to click with each nights menu. You have to have a reservation in the MDR to see their menu. If you have a specialty reservation, it will show you that menu.

Bon Voyage!!

Thanks! We will be on Oct 21 for the 22 day RT Barcelona. Would love info on the new restaurants and also, if you have time, the Take 5 jazz club and what kind of wines are being served with the Plus package now.

BTW - do you know if my husband and I each had a separate account, can we each get 5? Timing is short so we can't wait the extra month.
