Thanks for all the responses. A couple more questions: is there a cost savings to booking a beverage package before a sailing? Also, it it possible to upgrade the Classic pkg. that comes with All Included to the Premium?

Thank you. I didn't see it mentioned in the descriptions.

Am I correct that bottled water isn't included in either the Classic or Premium beverage packages? I see there's a "zero" package with different waters, but having to purchase two packages seems pretty pricey.

I plan to be onboard in a couple of weeks and was hoping to book the cruise just before mine. Seems far too soon for a refurb, so possibly a few charters in a row? I just checked my account and my current Oct 2023 cruise still appears.

I've just been online to look for a possible B2B using this promo with my current Onward booking in Oct 2023. All Onward cruises from Oct 14 through Nov 18 have disappeared, including mine. Belfastman, could you possible inquire since your onboard? I'm hoping it's a website issue.

That is quite a story! I do have similar coverage just in case, but would prefer to avoid the drama.

I'll be flying Delta with one stop, transiting through Atlanta with a fairly long layover which helps somewhat. I will be using an Apple air tag which would tell me that my luggage is onboard, but it will be a long flight to Barcelona if I don't get that "ping"!

Thank you.

I'm considering using carry-on rather than checked luggage for a couple of upcoming trips. I'd much prefer to check it, but obviously concerned about all the problems over the past few months. I'm researching online, hoping to find if the situation is improving, but I'm only finding old data from up to early Summer when things were really a mess. Does anyone have recent information or experience with this? And if your luggage was lost, how soon was is returned to you?

Does the Onward have "regular" hairdryers that don't require a button being held down during use? I think this was posted previously, but it's not coming up in my search.

Thanks, Beatnix. I'm staying at Eurostar Grand Marina next to WTC and was hoping to just walk to the terminal. Hope to meet you on board.

Can someone point me to an accurate source to find exactly which pier the 10/29 Onward will be departing from? AZ has told both me and my TA on separate occasions (most recently 2 days ago) that we will be departing from Moll Adossat, but someone on our roll call has posted that portdebarcelona.cat is showing a departure from "Barcelona 18B". Is that different from WTC and Moll Adossat? We haven't received our final documents yet, but I'd like to know as soon as possible. Thanks for any info.

Thanks. This is my first HA cruise. I'm just getting familiar with the board and didn't see any recent discussion about it.

Can the Signature beverage package included in "Have It All" be upgraded onboard to the Elite package for an additional charge? Right now, the current Elite list does not show additional vodka choices from the Signature, but I'm hoping I'll find Absolut vodka available once I board .

I'm new to Holland, taking a TA next year. I'm considering purchasing either the Signature or Elite package. Can someone direct me to a list of which brands (including waters) are included in each plan? Is there beverage service anywhere on the ship other than the restaurants and bars, such as common areas or where performances and lectures are held? Also, it looks like the price is less if you purchase online prior to the cruise. Any chance of any additional promotions before sail date? Thanks.

Have you tried calling American, since it seems they're the booking airline?

I had similar problems with Choice Air and Lufthansa. I doubt you'll have any luck with Choice Air now or later. If you have any receipts or prior emails showing the word Premium or even just the seat no. (that would indicate that it's in the Premium section), bring it to the airport with you. As blag says, Premium is NOTHING like business class, so you won't be missing that experience. Still, I get it - you paid for an upgrade and want particular seats.. I hope you get some satisfaction but don't stress too much. All will be forgotten when you arrive in BCN and board the ship.
