Grandma Cruising Posted July 21, 2016 #3 Share Posted July 21, 2016 My favourite port, so far, is Muscat. It's a lovely town, the palace is lovely, the souk is great and the people are nice too. I also loved Halong Bay. Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare uktog Posted July 22, 2016 #8 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hvar and Zadar in Croatia are very high up on my list. I also love Bergen And I can never get enough of Gaudi in Barcelona Nice article - just wondered given a crew member said Bermuda and Azamara have not been there for years, was this a soft signal of a new itinerary (or have we a crew member still waiting for their favourite, I hope he is lucky as I did enjoy Bermuda on Celebrity) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, still can't but I looked the article up on your website - very well interesting. Sydney and Chania seem to be favourites!

Lottie A Posted July 22, 2016 #10 Share Posted July 22, 2016 (edited) No, still can't but I looked the article up on your website - very well interesting. Sydney and Chania seem to be favourites! Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app I often can't access links on CC with my IPad either. I think it's a Safari issue. So Phil recommended downloading the Opera web browser and all the links work fine when using it. A lot of crew, when asked their favourite port, say Kotor and Sorrento. They happen to be two of my favourite ports too. Also Barcelona, despite having been there over 60 times. I think my absolute favourite port has to be Sanary sur Mer though. I do wish Azamara would do more calls here and not to boring nearby Marseille or Toulon. I just love Sanary, such French chic....and there is a wonderful handbag shop there!

BBMacLaird Posted July 22, 2016 Author #14 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Did you get the link to work?I have no idea what impact using an app would have. The blog is up on our website under Blog. I asked our web guru why some people have trouble opening the links I post. She did some testing and found the CC app doesn't like hyperlinks to external sites, eg our Azamara website. So to test this finding, here's the full URL. Would those using the CC app test by clicking for me? https://www.azamaraclubcruises.com/blog/azamara’s-crew-has-been-everywhere-these-are-ports-they-love-most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare uktog Posted July 23, 2016 #18 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) Thanks Bonnie you did a good job but it's nothing you can fix though Works fine on iPhone etc so long as you don't use the forums app. The app is the issue. It's so much of a pain now I've disabled it. It's not a problem unique to cruise critic. It's an issue on most forums. It's not a service provider issue, aol, EE. cisytem and open world all give the BT Edited July 23, 2016 by uktog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spursgirl Posted July 23, 2016 #19 Share Posted July 23, 2016 We are all so fortunate to be able to visit so many beautiful ports. Think my favourite is Sete in the South of France. Unspoilt and authentic it is not featured on too many cruise itineraries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBMacLaird Posted July 28, 2016 Author #23 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Bonnie, both the links work for me through the app on my Android phone. It's a mystery why some links work for a few while other links don't, and some people can't get any links to open? I was buoyed by the reported discovery that those that use the app can't open hyperlinks but that's been debunked. So back to ground zero. I'll try to remember to use both a hyperlink and the full URL which should cover the majority of the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good suggestions but I think all, with the exception of Japan, are one-offs...meaning now and then we could include them in the rotation but not regularly. They each require a big 'geographic detour' and thus need to be planned far in advance, with plenty of marketing to back them up. I'm not privy to what's being planned for 2019 but there may be a surprise or two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
