If you have a cruise coming up ,its advantageous to book on board and use your free nights with this booking. There are several limitations when using free nights but we used our 6 nights when we booked onboard and came out of it very well.

Just found this on the new website, goodness knows how ! Ive always thought it was 2 free bags per 7 days. If you in suite and Discoverer I think thats confirmed. 6 on the 23 nighter and possibly 2 on the 12 nighter?

Thanks, I was hopeful ! 3 nights it is then !!

Im probably trying to work the system Denise ! 🤦‍♀️

We have purchased the 3 night speciality dining packages on board many times and have bought them per person. 2 x 3 nights. Later this year we are travelling with another couple. We would like 2 nights each in the Speciality restaurants. My Question is, can each cabin book the 1 x 4 dining package when we get on board and then the four of us then each have two nights each? Or does it not work like that? Are the packages strictly per person or per cabin ? Never crossed my mind before because we always had 3 nights. There would obviously be a saving this way, than if the four of us each booked 2 nights. I’m sure they can let me know onboard but wondered if anyone has done this recently. Many thanks.

Is one of these the email you received ? Ive received 2 emails today for our b2b . Although I completed both check ins before the upgrade, one said it wasn’t completed but the other does ! There are different check in procedures for loyalty , although to be fair the second leg doesn't affect us as we will be on board anyway ! I think we have to turn up at the allotted time and just bring along plenty of patience with us !

@Riocca @travelberlin These discount have been for a while now. This was the paperwork from our cruise when we booked on board last October and I believe it had been in operation a fair few months before that.

In the past we did leave the ship the evening before departure day in Singapore to secure a late night flight home to UK. The only place to get a definitive answer now will be to contact Azamara.

Ah , but was it as good as Liverpool and Manchester United yesterday Denise !! 😂

Hot off the press…. $20 and taken from obc. They did ships tours and thoroughly recommend them in HCM, they did Journey to Mekong Delta.

Of course, I will ask her to ask for you. There might be someone that may also have those details for you as well.. She has just been telling me that Ho Chi Minh was fantastic and the Azamazing evening was one of the best ever.

Hah 😂😂 ‘our friend’ just replied to my message Phil ! Yes the ship can do the visas but they did their own from home! How good is it to have a finger on the pulse !

@jkhneuber I wonder if anyone has any experience of being allocated a different guarantee cabin nearer the cruise date, after their initial allocation ?

You mentioned previously that you would look to see if the price was worth the risk of getting an obstructed cabin. I do not think any part of the allocation was misleading. It was a chance you were willing to take. Do you have the same cabin for both cruises? On the positive side are no sea days on your b2b and hopefully you will be off enjoying the ports and not sitting in the cabin . You may be fortunate that one of the lifeboats immediately outside your cabin may be used for tendering which will allow more light in , if you return after lunch. Really hope you enjoy the cruise and live with the obstructed view.

Agree Phil. We've had an obstructed on a port intensive cruise. We weren't in the cabin much. Yes, there is no sofa but that didn't bother us as we've never orderded room service. The layout is better as you dont get hit by the bathroom door if you are by the wardrobe or the dressing table ! 😂. Great location and if need be ,we would choose again on the right itinerary and price.

A quick google search will bring up several taxi options. This one is airportstaxitransfers.com and provides an address

Yes you are correct. Patio scheduled to be open until 5pm and then again from 6.30pm. Individual cruises may be different and there have been alot of changed times over the past few months on several of the ships, but I think where possible they aim for the extended opening times.

If all the stars are aligned this represents the best days offerings for food and drink available or any combination depending on sea days, white nights Azamazing evenings or weather. The main dining room is not open for lunch on port days but there are often brunch/lunches there on sea days.

You will have to do a little work yourself to find the best value for your free nights, but it is doable. We had 6 free nights last year and I booked whilst onboard so was eligible for my 7% discount with Discoverer Plus and $300 obc. I was armed with the cruises we were interested in and the prices. You have to book a cruise within one year of getting the free nights but dont have to travel within that year. The discount is on fare only, not taxes and port fees. They cannot be used on Cruisetours. There are more details on Azamara web site. Whilst prices paid are a bit of a taboo subject ,it might be helpful to know that we booked a 7 night Greece intensive in a V1 balcony for £385 per person . We paid for flights separately as we always do.. The price never got anywhere near that low from when we booked in January till when we sailed in October. We could well have been the exception to the rule but it worked for us!

We are disembarking in Chioggia . Azamara hopefully will be doing their usual pay for transport to the airport 🤞.

Sadly I dont think any of us can help you until at least April, when Azamara starts docking there. April 22 is the first non overnight and docks at the same time as your September cruise. I personally will be disembarking there in May but its an overnighter and we can usually leave so much earlier. Hopefully guests will be able to let you know as soon as possible the set up and times of disembarkation, so ask again in a couple of months, if you haven't found an answer before then. 🤞

Always more than one of each type of wine. We had four reds offered in October, I believe similar with white. There’s a sparkling and a Rose also in the included wines.

Would agree. We would never have experienced the wonders of Ravenna if not for the change of port and we were fortunate to have a day and overnight there at the end of our cruise. We are taking the same view with Chioggia with an overnight there and intend to explore the town also. Of course it helps that we have visited Venice a couple of times and I do understand that for some it would be a first time to visit.

Cant answer why you've not had a reply to your points enquiry but I received a reminder update email last Saturday re the 1st February changes, with a link to frequently asked questions. Not much has changed since their first announcement but the email stated it was now a go. Have you checked to see that they have an up to date email for notifications and you are registered.
