Which Docking Location in Chania, Crete for Princess Sun?
pickypicky replied to pickypicky's topic in Princess Cruises
Thanks. Yes, I realize that we are going to Chania, but a local tour operator is asking which pier we will be docked at in Chania...Souda or Chania. I know nothing about it but that is the question I am trying to answer. -
So is that $20 the corkage? May I take it to any dining venue no charge after that?
-
Can anyone tell me what the corkage fee is if I bring my own wine?

This happened to me after our last cruise in September. I filled out the request support form and had no reply or result. I called the Loyalty Support number and was able to get someone (I'm in the States) who uncovered that the problem was that I had two email addresses on file. The rep was able to correct it, had me sign in again and voila, my points were correct. I'm not saying that's your problem, just that they were able to correct it without my having to provide "proof".

I can highly recommend Henri Challeau of Bordeaux wine tours recommended in post #5 by Laurie B. We took his tour this past September prior to embarking an Azamara Spain Intensive cruise. He is a sommelier, very engaging, very responsive, and worked with me to format an itinerary that suited us, including three choices of restaurants for lunch. The link is in the post, but here it is again.http://www.bordeaux-wine-travel.com/

Interesting. Does this include individual specialty dining reservations? I am currently unable to see my future cruise.

We've just returned from Spain Intensive Bordeaux to Barcelona on Pursuit. Not sure where they were sourced, but lunch the first day (we overnighted in Bordeaux) was fresh tempura battered soft shell crabs, cooked a la minute. Delicious and soooo special!

Thank you. Is the personalizer on the App? I'm totally in the dark here and could be one of those with an assignment at the pier lol!

We are Princess newbies, but not new to cruising (we are Azamara devotees, but excited to be cruising with our family), traveling with kids and grandkids. We have a guarantee mini suite M2. Any ideas about when we will get our assignment? Just curious. There are only 40 suites in our category and none of them is in an unappealing location, AFAIK, so I'm not concerned at all. New build, not lots of info. Can anyone tell me how this works?

Thank you. I think something new and different is always fun!
-
At least we’ll be going in eyes wide open! And we do have six incredible 20 somethings to keep us company if the food isn’t memorable. Thank you so much for your input. I think we are going to take the Princess plunge!
-
Thank you! I have no doubt that we will enjoy traveling with the kids. It's only a week, but I wouldn't mind having decent food and wine. Comments?

We have an "opportunity" to go on the new Sun Princess next summer with our children and grandchildren. By "opportunity", I mean that they are all paying their own fares and we are invited to tag along!!! The itinerary will actually take us to a couple of places we have never visited and the grands are all young adults in their 20s with whom we rarely spend quality time, so it is a tempting offer. We primarily sail on Azamara and have never cruised on Princess. How are we going to like it?
-
Are reservations required for Suite guests to breakfast in Aqualina? And is it crowded?
-
We are on Journey now in a standard veranda and there are no outlets on the wall where the bed is. Our room attendant brought an extension cord that plugged in at the desk, then he taped it down for safety. Not pretty but it works.
-
We have never attended one. The ship is really quiet and we enjoy a nice dinner.
-
Can anyone recommend a car service for transfer from Dublin port to a city hotel?
-
So have they changed it? Last I knew it was in Seville but I haven’t looked in a few days.
-
Thank you so much! You are most kind to have taken the time to provide me with your schedule. Now that I've heard from you I plan to book with him ASAP.
-
Thanks for this link. I have contacted him and have received a prompt and thorough reply to my questions. I am considering the St. Emilion tour, but hoping to hear a little more about your experience with this company, please, before booking it if you have a moment?

Hope you’re enjoying your trip. We are booked on two Azamara cruises this year after an almost five year hiatus and would really enjoy some photos, esp. food. Appreciate your time spent on this review! -
Agree. Excursions on our upcoming Iceland Intensive had a huge price increase after Jan. 1. Because I had some OBC, I had booked several before that time and am happy that I did. Now I'm hoping they won't be cancelled because of the outrageous prices/lack of participation!
