  1. When booking the cruise my TA asked if I wanted the airfare. I said I would like only the air from ship to home. That is what she requested and that is what I got. No question. Of course the cruise ends in Ft. Laud but the flight departs from Miami so I assume they are busing me and many others to Miami as transfers are included. I am happy. Marilyn
  2. Much thanks! I found the statement as an attachment to an email my TA forwarded to me from Viking! Just what I was looking for. Marilyn
  3. Is there any way to print my cruise itinerary with the ship arrival and departure times? I found one itinerary but it only lists the day and the port, not the actual hours in port. Times would be very helpful for excursion planning. Thx in advance for any assistance. Marilyn
  4. Thank you for your thorough review! Marilyn
  5. Thank you for all this great information! Marilyn
  6. I am considering a Viking Can/NE cruise this Oct. I will be attending a family wedding in Vermont and can make my way to Montreal on my own. If I accept the free Viking Air, can I choose to use only the return flight from Fort Lauderdale home to Tampa as I do not need the initial flight to Montreal? Thx in advance. Marilyn
  7. Thank you, thank you for your replies and pix. Had a great meal at the sushi bar on the Breakaway and this looks like the same menu. Very excitied! Marilyn
  8. I will be on the Oct. 9 Can/NE cruise on the Sky. This is my first time on this ship. Recently while searching all things Sky I saw a reference to the Pinnacle Bar and Sushi. Going to the NCL website I see it on the deck plans but there is no mention of it under specialty dining. Does anyone have a copy of a sample menu for this venue? Not a lot of specialty dining on this ship so I was excited to see what they are offering. Thx. Marilyn
  9. Good luck! We had lovely weather in the gulf today.
  10. Thx to all for every tip in this thread. On NCL Breakaway now after 1 night stay at Hilton Riverside. Followed all instructions and boarding went beautifully. Would like to add that both sets of escalators in the outlet mall were not working. However I was relieved to find an elevator near or beside each escalator. Stopped at food court for a bite then went down in the elevator at 12:10 with a 12:30 boarding time. Could have gone earlier. No one seemed to care. Soon as elevator door opened, a porter was right there asking for my bags. Walked across the driveway, into the terminal and 25-30 minutes later I was on board looking for a drink. Effortless. Thx again.
  11. Did you do self assist disembark? What did you do with your luggage when you went to the dining room? Can you leave your bags in your room, go eat and then get them and leave? Thx. Marilyn
  12. Got a very good price at Blue Horizon Hotel on Robson last summer. Great walking neighborhood with lots of restaurants and shopping. Not too far from the port and Stanley Park. Stayed one night post cruise and found a tour company that gave us a deal on port pick-up (indluding luggage) tour of Vancouver and drop off at hotel. Next day pick up (with our luggage) North Shore tour (Capilano, etc.) then airport drop off. Very convenient, very good price. Excellent 2 days in Vancouver. Marilyn
  13. Will the fill a bag offer happen even on a 7 day cruise? Marilyn
  14. Sailed this past summer on Koningsdam with CO. While enjoyed an upgraded balcony, CO dining room and preferred check-in, one of my favorite benefits was the CO line at Guest Services. Often the line for Guest Services went down the hallway and I could walk up and be no later than 2nd in the CO line! Valuable perk! Marilyn
  15. This was my experience when I did the same thing on Azamara. Mariyn
  16. On Koningsdam this past July. No Half Moon bar. No Pinnacle Bar in the Pinnacle Grill. Ocean Bar closest to CO DR. Very busy at prime time. Get there early or late to get a drink quickly. No live pre-dinner music anywhere on the ship that I could find. There was a piano in the Ocean Bar but it was mainly used by photographers as a prop. Personal experience on HAL and Celebrity ships is that it is smart to get a cocktail or wine and take it to the dining room with you if you want to be certain to have a drink with your starter.
  17. I have always used Cruise Timetables | Cruise Schedules | Cruise Ship Schedules You can search by ship or port. Marilyn
  18. After clearing cookies and using Chrome I was able to get in and look at flights. Ended up booking elsewhere as choices were limited but thank you to all for advice on how to manage the issue. Marilyn
  19. Clearing cookies, using Chrome and only accepting necessary cookies finally allowed me to look at flight. Thanks! Marilyn
