skings Posted June 19, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Hello, I am booked on MSC Meraviglia next May 2020 and would like to reserve MSC Preziosa before this cruise. Both end on a Sunday. Have seen that train and flying would take approximately 6 hours between cities. I am 76 and would be using a walker, also traveling solo. Any help on itinerary or suggestions would be appreciated.

skings Posted June 19, 2019 Author #2 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Would it be too stressful traveling from one ship to the other same day. Thanks, Sandra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hallasm Posted June 19, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Agree - might be a bit stressful. Train from Kiel to Copenhagen is 5 hours with change of train 3 to 4 times - then you of cause need time to get to Train station in Kiel and to Oceankaj cruise terminal in Copenhagen. For flight you need to go to Hamburg - 2 hours by train with change at Hamburg central - flight time to Copenhagen is one hour - for sure flight is faster and more convenient and faster. And doable. Do not know specific options for May 2020 yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frederik123456 Posted June 20, 2019 #8 Share Posted June 20, 2019 DSB will likely run a new direct service between Copenhagen and Hamburg in 2020. So it could be possible to do Kiel-Copenhagen with a single change of trains. Not sure if it will be much faster though. The new timetable will be available in December 2019.
