Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Hi, I know there are a few deluxe cabins at the aft that are wider than the standard cabins, but are all the midships deluxe cabins , the same width as standard cabins, but a little bit longer? Thanks
  2. Hi Wonky and Winifred - thanks, I thought about this, but would have had to upgrade two deposits as the change triggers a full deposit. Decided to leave for now, but may come back to this idea later. The on board person told me you can sometimes split into two bookings, which together have a higher value, so I’m thinking about this too. However we would end up with even more cruises then! I think a lesson to the wise is to book the longest dates Cruise at the lowest value as a placeholder when on board, and then bring forward. thanks again
  3. Actually I wasn’t, - part of the reason for the disappointment in Cunard in this respect. I booked on board on both QM2 and QV, so I think there are gaps in their information provision process.
  4. Hi, just bear in mind if uk booking the deposit increases to the standard percentage you move the cruise you booked on board. Also you have to book within a year. In our case we weren’t told about either when on board. The date issue is extra annoying as we had two further cruises booked in the year already so wanted to move it by 15 months. I am still thinking about what to do about this?
  5. Hi, I’m on Sky right now, and suite breakfast will be in Sabatinis. Hope this reassures fellow passengers, whilst allowing those who prefer other options to enjoy them.
  6. Hi, I am in a similar situation - I would save £1125 allowing for the deposit to be lost, and loose $800 OBC. My plan is to book with the 10 percent offer, even though I would need to pay a higher deposit. Then transfer my on board booking to a new 2025 booking when they come out which will mean I can reuse the £350 deposit and get the $800 OBC on that cruise. Hope that makes sense, maybe worth thinking about?
  7. Concierges were always busy on my trips.
  8. Hi Panama, that’s something I will try if I ever travel on Oceania again.
  9. Hi, I had a lovely time in Queens Grill in December last year, it was very special, for context we were celebrating it being 35 years to the day since we had previously sailed with Cunard, we even had the Grills Menu to show them. I liked it very much, but some people may prefer something less traditional. If you have a specific questions I would be happy to help.
  10. Hi Ron, yes, the added complexity of requiring an accessible full suite must make planning more difficult, and potentially more expensive.
  11. Hi, by fluke we got the same one we have had for our other Sky Princess sailings - R611. It means my feet know the way to the concierge lounge on their own! There’s an irony in having the laundry so near when the full suites offer a free service - but we actually find it’s a really good route through the laundry to the port side of the ship.
  12. Thanks everyone, managed to pick up a cabin with an early morning sortie.
  13. Hi, I am lurking on the Princess site at the moment trying to pick up a cancellation for my preferred cabin type. Please could someone who is in the know advise if there is a particular time of day when their system updates, and or when travel agents holds elapse? thankyou
  14. Hi, I almost got an S4 today, but it was snapped up before I could book it! Will keep trying.
