laurieb Posted December 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I am really, really happy with the new Air program! Consolidator pricing for business class seats for our May 2024 cruises, and easy to pick our own flights and times. Since the flights are flexible, no need to pay for them until final payment on the cruises, and they can easily be changed. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberts2005 Posted December 1, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 1, 2023 How do you book the air? Through your TA or is there a website? I have August 2024 to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds very like what we’ve had all along in the UK where we have no control on airline or flight times 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portland to Seattle to Frankfurt to Nice and then a bus to Monte Carlo. We had to run in Frankfurt to get the next flight as the distance between gates was so far.

That’s still how it would be for us if we left air to Azamara they use low cost hubs like Frankfurt every time we ask for quotes. Worst still is those who don’t know you can delay booking a with flights option so get locked into the UK flights lottery too early 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr H Posted December 5, 2023 #23 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Hi gang, sort of a follow up. I just called the customer support team number as directed (833 292 2292) and got through immediately. The lady at the other end was very helpful, unfortunately, all navigation needed to go through her, I had no access to the web site to view choices or prices. We are on the April 1, 7 nite Lisbon to Barcelona cruise on Quest, and was given a quote of $535. rt Atlanta to Lisbon via Boston on March 26, returning to Atlanta April 12 on Air Canada via Montreal. (I think the departure out of Atlanta is with Delta, please don't quote me.) That was economy, economy plus was $1300,pp, and a mere $18,000 business. I was asked for the Azamara confirmation number, and the dates I wanted. I can't give you any further details, I will, if friend Marge takes them up on the deal. Delta is asking $1088 regular economy, $2622 premium economy, and $3576 business, round trip. Business is almost reasonable, but I know who I would be using for economy! Hope this helps.

john1970 Posted December 5, 2023 #24 Share Posted December 5, 2023 I know Princess is not comparable but they make it so easy to book and add air on their website. I hope Azamara eventually get to the stage where you can just browse online and add the fights that suit. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
