WeeCountyMan Posted May 17, 2016 #26 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Thanks, yes it is and very excited, but there are a lit if negative reviews on other sites, not that I really take much notice. We are doing the Mediterranean Medley. Any helpful info would be great thanks. 1. Ignore the negative reviews. 2. If you like a G&T (or whatever) in your cabin you'll not be able to buy a bottle onboard as the duty free shop can't open on this itinerary. See my observations on "Bringing Alcohol On Board" thread hereabouts. No duty free on flight, so source locally in Palma - or stash a bottle in your main hold luggage prior to departing UK.

.harobed18 Posted May 17, 2016 Author #27 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Hi, thank you for your tips, not really drinkers so not a problem there, how come they can't open the duty free? Also did you notice in the Morning, tables for 2? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeCountyMan Posted May 17, 2016 #28 Share Posted May 17, 2016 (edited) how come they can't open the duty free? All ports of call are within the EU. The reason why Gibraltar is a stop for nearly all western Med cruises is to include a non EU port of call to allow the duty free shop to open. Same with American cruise lines sailing from US locations - a visit to a Mexican port does the same for them. Didn't see tables for 2 in the main dining room at breakfast - all sixes. We went self service buffet in the MDR - maybe tables for 2 in the waiter serve area ? Edited May 17, 2016 by WeeCountyMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.harobed18 Posted May 17, 2016 Author #29 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Oh I see, thanks. Was meant to say the MDR, not morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
