WhitlocksEnd

I asked the question at the Q & A with the Captain about the postponement of White Night.  The Cruise Director confirmed that it was her decision, but showed no contrition in making such a crass call.

The really sad thing is on the planned date for the party the evening in Puerto Madryn was beautiful and Golfo Nuevo was like a mill pond.

This certainly reflects our recent experience on Journey.

It would appear that sourcing and pricing are proving a challenge to Azamara to the detriment of some food offerings.

Obviously disappointing and hopefully just a short term hiccup.

Brand new to this discussion.  Someone mentioned that there is a spreadsheet of upgrade bids and whether successful or not?  Can you direct me where to find it?  We just submitted 2 bids for our Intensive Ireland cruise on the Pursuit on May 24, 2020 and would like to see what our chances are.

 

Thanks

Have a look at post 657 on this thread.

No need to walk you can take the shuttle.  Link below:

Sadly the APP is even more dysfunctional if you access it on an iPad.  On our recent Pursuit cruise we were unable to see any account information or menus which currently are available on both Journey and Quest.

I spoke with the IT officer on board who was aware of the situation and had reported it to Miami, but his suggestion that upgrades were necessary appears to have fallen on deaf ears!

The best advice he could offer was to put my concerns in writing which I duly did. 

Periquita was available on the Lisbon Rio transatlantic.

Couldn’t agree more, been severely burnt with prices on two of our three upcoming Azamara cruises.  

In future our preferred  modus operandi will be to make any more Azamara bookings at the last minute.  All extremely disappointing and seemingly driving many other loyal clients like ourselves to look at alternatives.

Sadly the one in Petropavlovsk in August has also been removed.

My query to this email address has also remained unanswered.

Despite my continued custom, with 3 future cruises already booked, it would appear that Azamara is somewhat disinterested in my future business.  

So disenchanted with the poor onshore service provided by Azamara has resulted in the cruise booking I have made today is with one of the competition!

NO!

Has anyone experience of the above following November’s changes?

From what I can glean we should not be disadvantaged by these adjustments.

Interested how these changes are being implemented.  Do I need to go armed with a copy of which specific drinks were offered in the Classic Package, if indeed I can find this, or have MSC have increased the ‘up to amount’ in this particular package?

Any updates would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi

I wonder if anyone could help me with an email address of Customer Service in the UK.
I have an upcoming cruise booked with Aurea experience and keen to find out the impact this will change will have.
Tried using the online Form to no avail.  Despite completing the Form it will not accept any entry in the 'Type of Request' field!
Having just hung on for 20 minutes awaiting someone to answer the phone I'm losing the will to live.
Any help, much appreciated.  

Probably because the weather can be very cool in April. June is an ideal time to visit the Mediterranean. It certainly won’t be too hot or humid.

All is not lost!

Thanks to the good offices of Host Grandma Cruising you could copy, paste and print the image contained on post 170.

It would appear that the complimentary spirits list has been reduced from 31 items to 9.

In a moment of boredom this morning I have compared the two lists and the results are as follows:

Anisette

Apricot Brandy

Beefeater gin

Blackberry Brandy

Blue Curaçao

Butterscotch Schnapps

Cherry Brandy

Crème de Almond

Crème de Banana

Crème de Cacao Dark

Crème de Cacao White

Crème de Cassis

Crème de Menthe Green

Crème de Menthe White

Cutty Sark scotch whisky

Finlandia vodka

Gordon's gin

Jim Beam bourbon

José Cuervo Especial Silver tequila

Kirsch

Mount Gay Eclipse Silver rum

Orange Curaçao

Peach Schnapps

Peppermint Schnapps

Seagram's Seven Crown whisky

Sloe gin

Smirnoff vodka

Sour Apple Pucker

Triple Sec

Vermouth Dry

Vermouth Sweet

All are included in the former list and the ones in bold in the new list.

Hopefully, it may just be a case of misinterpretation by those who were responsible for putting the list together as the majority of removed items are liqueurs. As someone has already noted the most obvious omission is a vermouth.

From a selfish perspective the only disappointment is the removal of

Just look at the first post on this Forum

Sounds an eminently sensible idea to me.

I’m in the U.K. and experiencing exactly the same problem. Now looking at using local agents for shore excursions on our upcoming cruise.

Indeed a different survey, but questions based on the same topic.

... but strangely not in the U.K. Yet again divisive marketing from Azamara! :*

In these circumstances it’s usually best to look for multi city flights, rather than two singles. Being so far out prices will not yet be available for winter 2019, although you could do some ‘dummy’ enquiries using Skyscanner for winter 2018 which should give you some indication of prices.

In that case a steal. ;)
