  1. As per Dads army “Don’t tell them Pike” 😂😂
  2. Hi Spence. why do they ask for cabin details when customers order included drinks? I asked this question to a waiter last time I was onboard and his reply was Stock control.🤷🏻‍♂️
  3. Hi Brizzle. My take on security is good quality locks and burglar alarm but more importantly proper all inclusive insurance. I can think of nothing worse than being on holiday and getting a video alert that a burglar is ransacking my home and would I care to watch. If it happens I will find out when I get home, Let the insurance sort it. I have been victim to burglars in the past and it’s not nice so why let it ruin your holiday. Keep well.
  4. Hi Brick1. I really can’t see how this would be an issue if you want to disembark early, Marella can’t really force you to stay on the ship. Obviously your flight home becomes your problem. good luck.😉
  5. Hi Ki. Have a look here, taxi is app €30 from the airport area. There are a few ways to reach Palma de Mallorca port from the airport. Taxis can be found outside the main airport terminal. The fare to the cruise port costs around €25-30, but it’s always worth clarifying prior to departure as some taxi’s operate on a meter system. The journey time is approximately 20 minutes, and the same costs apply returning from Palma port to the airport. Private Transfer Palma de Mallorca Airport to Cruise Port It’s also possible to arrange a private transfer shuttle from Palma de Mallorca airport to cruise port. They are often cheaper for groups travelling together. The vehicle prices range from €25-30 for four people, to €37-40 for up to six people. Bus from Palma de Mallorca Airport to Cruise Port If you are arriving at Palma airport and wish to travel by bus to port of Palma de Mallorca cruise terminal, there are currently no direct public bus services. The A1 bus will transport you from the airport, firstly to Passeig Mallorca in the city’s Old Town, and here you transfer to bus no. 1 at (stop 19) “Instituts” or (stop 20) “Jaume III”. This bus takes you directly to the cruise port and the cost for the entire combined trip is €8 per person. I Would think a taxi would be the easiest option.😉
  6. Last time that we were in tenerife my wife was struggling to walk (She had twisted her knee a couple of weeks earlier) At the check in building/ tent there were four or five crew with wheelchairs and one of them approached us and offered the wheelchair which we accepted and he pushed the chair all of the way to our cabin.🙂 I must agree the walk from the coach drop off to the ship is decent especially if you are less able.
  7. That’s a shame, can’t you book assistance at the airport? Dont know where you are flying from but at Birmingham it’s a pretty good service.
  8. From a quick google search. Unsure how recent this is but it’s exactly the menu that we had last September.
  9. And as I recall no bar. 🥲 It’s an outside seating area for the market place buffet.
  10. That’s disappointing, we always went back to the cabin after the turndown service and picked our copy up so that we could muse over the following days offerings,☹️ Hi RR hope all is well with you and yours.😉
  11. Our trip on June 3rd has dining and spa treatments but no excursions as yet.
  12. Fortunately for you paying the extra cost for a private car isn’t going to break the bank, The original poster has a 300 mile plus journey so a private car would be astronomical. Your reply hasn’t really helped the topic being discussed.🤷🏻‍♂️
  13. Included return chauffeur service A chauffeur will pick you up from home and take you to the port at Dover or Portsmouth. 2024 cruises: A private chauffeur if you live up to 75 miles of the port each way or a shared chauffeur service up to 300 miles. 2025 cruises: A private chauffeur if you live up to 75 miles of the port each way or a shared chauffeur service nationwide As a previous poster has said everything is always negotiable. Worst possible scenario is you end up paying for the few extra miles.
