millie1953 Posted August 14, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Can anyone help with the times from Marco Polo Airport to the cruise port please. Also, we are booked into a balcony cabin 9084 on Radioso Deck - can anyone let me know if this is a good place to be. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on what mode of transport you use 1) land taxi 20 - 30 minutes 2) Water Taxi 30 - 40 minutes 3) water bus 2 to 2.5 hours 4) airport bus and people mover 1 to 1.5 hours If you want more info about a specific mode just ask 9084 has a steel balcony (not the best) , you will see the top of a life boat when looking down image by cruisetrail STEEL BALCONY Pete Edited August 14, 2014 by Skier52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skier52 Posted August 14, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) Which ship are you on? Radioso is not a deck on Divina it may make a difference to the type of balcony you have as not all the Fantasia class have steel balconies as far back on deck 9 Edit:- I've checked and you're on MSC Fantasia Your cabin WILL NOT have a steel balcony so all is good Pete Ps sorry about the confusion but most enquiries on this forum are about DIvina Edited August 14, 2014 by Skier52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millie1953 Posted August 14, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Thank you Skier52. From the airport we are going by coach arranged by TA. Our original booking was for an internal cabin and I presumed we had been upgraded to a balcony - which in theory we have - at least the life boat will not be directly in front of our view. The holiday is what you make it so as long as the ship and cabin are fine I'll be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millie1953 Posted August 14, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Thanks Pete have now read your edit. Thanks for taking the trouble to check this out for me. I would have put up with a steel balcony - not one to moan - but a glass one is so much nicer. Never been on the Fantasia but so looking forward to the trip.

ann2201 Posted August 15, 2014 #14 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Hi Pete Many thanks. We are over the moon to have an upgrade and a balcony from a gty inside:) Out of our last 3 cruises, 1 was an outside cabin and the most recent 2 were inside but didn't detract from our enjoyment of the cruises. Last year's cruise was the Splendida, so expect similar standards and will be chuffed, even more so because Alegrissimo already paid as opposed to paying at the time:) Thanks again Annx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millie1953 Posted August 15, 2014 Author #16 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I agree with you, it was so good to get helpful advice and also to have a fellow cruiser go the extra mile to answer queries. It is so good to be re-assured however small or large your question is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
