GOQ Posted April 12, 2019 #27 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I have had my flight numbers and flight times changed for both my Dream cruise this month and my Explorer 2 cruise in July. I don't know why both cruises are affected , maybe 737 Max problems or Brexit ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecttr Posted April 12, 2019 #28 Share Posted April 12, 2019 News from elsewhere Explorer has shower doors, these are well liked. Explorer 2 has shower curtains, Marella cheapskates! However Some passengers on current cruise are reporting that when they return to their cabins after excursions the curtain has become a door. Apparently there was a delay in the door delivery so they are fitting them as they go along. no more cold assaults in the nether regions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ28 Posted April 13, 2019 #31 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Hi everyone, I have posted some comments and pics on this thread below. Delay is because we spent a few days in Palma afterwards... https://boards.cruisecritic.co.uk/topic/2565550-anyone-booked-marella-explorer-2-yet-dont-know-what-to-do/page/4/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why both cruises are affected , maybe 737 Max problems or Brexit ?? On our return trip from Palma to Manchester (from maiden trip with Explorer 2) on Friday there was a delay because of some sort of issue and we had to change planes to a really big one (8 seats across, not 6). It was sometimes used by military and very spacious, also not full (due to increased size). However, it meant that ppl who had booked specific seats were not honoured although did receive letters explaining that they would be refunded charges for booking seats in advance.

davecttr Posted April 13, 2019 #33 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Late changes of flight times and flight numbers very possibly due to TUI grounding their 737MAX short haul aircraft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget AJ28 if your delay was three hours you can claim flight delay compensation 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare 2BACRUISER Posted April 14, 2019 #37 Share Posted April 14, 2019 The changes of planes are where Tui operated the Boeing air max which were grounded so have had to hire in replacements Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
