Azamara transfers from Chioggia to airport are around $29 per person, according to my online booking summary on the website.

I am booked on the Baltic Capitals cruise from Copenhagen on 26 June. We had communications from Azamara about the situation in Ukraine before Putin invaded, saying they were still planning to go ahead with adjustments in necessary.

Then we had an email with the new itinerary about 4 weeks later, no price cut offered. The cruise has dropped significantly in price however, which I have benefited from by ringing Azamara and having the price adjusted. We are happy with the new itinerary, given the situation we knew we would not be going to St.Petersburg, we have an overnight in Helsinki and new ports of Gdansk and Visby.

We have not done a Baltic cruise before so we did not have the problem of re-visiting ports. Our flight was booked with points so can be adjusted. Overall I am happy with how Azamara handled this, and we are looking forward to our first cruise with them.

Lovely to have you back posting, Norris. Have followed your adventures for many years. Our next cruise will be on Azamara Quest in June 2022 - Baltics, (fingers crossed, third time lucky etc.!) Michelle

Alla will refund in full if your ship does not port, or if you cancel your tour with 72 hours notice. 

We we are on the May Silhouette sailing, rather worried about possible port closures. Other than that we are happy to cruise. We will also just have to wait and see.

Thank for the tips. Yes we have an overnight in Stockholm as well as in St. Petersburg, so will try to watch the sail in. We will be DIY in most ports but will book one of the two day tours for SPB with one of the local companies. The idea is we do these intensive trips while we are still fit enough to manage them! We are late 40s/ early 50s.

Just booked an OceanView cabin on Silhouette 16 May 2020 sailing to Russia and Scandinavia. 14 nights with 10 port days, so fairly intensive, but that's what we like. This will be our third cruise, first two were on P&O Ventura to Norway and then Spain and Portugal, about 8 years ago. Looking forward to learning more about the cruise line and the ship. Also can't wait to see the refit post-Revolution, as this should be done on Silhouette before we sail.
