Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We are off to Zaanse Schans during our upcoming cruise in May 2024. Any experience with purchasing tickets in advance or its one of the entrances, you can purchase day of?
  2. Is Amsterdam Central Station considered the same as Amsterdam City Centre?
  3. Are there any Woolen Mills or Woolen Shops in the town of Cobh? We are opting to do Spike Island, Titanic Museum, Cathedral in town and would love to shop local at a Woolen shop
  4. We are coming into Amsterdam cruise terminal. Looking at all the transport options to buy the bus and entrance tickets. Which would you say is easiest walk to Central station and take the ferry over to the bus, and/or get to the airport and hop on the bus. Or is there a means we aren't thinking of? Thank you
  5. How easy did you find it to get to the Tulip Festival taking the bus? Did you go to the airport and hop on the bus or go to the ferry location and take the bus there or neither?
  6. Yikes, we may have to strategize how we eat...LOL Ours are 7 days, 14 days. So we should get reprieve from the same menu on day 8 of the 2nd cruise?...lol
  7. That would be amazing! So blessed to be able to check that off the bucket list. Your comment me realizing a comment I made to my husband, if we are going to Australia we cant skip the Barrier Reef. Just added that onto our trip. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. You just brought ours up to a whole new level!
  8. So you can get off the ship once but not a 2nd time, is what youre saying? Since Ill be in Melbourne for a few days prior to the 1st leg of the cruise, and the rep said we wouldnt have to check back in for the 2nd leg of the cruise and youre added tip, I think its best we stay on the ship if we can...LOL I would have never known that. Thank you so much.
  9. Great tip. Most of us may not think thru that. Thank you
  10. We've opted to wait until we get onboard, after we see it. We just weren't feeling it from online info.
  11. I am fortunate to have the hobby of traveling on points & miles. So business class is the only way we fly internationally. For this trip, we were able to catch 2 business class flights from the states to Auckland for a killer deal in points, and $97.00 in taxes. We will spend 7 days on the North Island New Zealand, fly to Melbourne spend 4 days prior to the cruise so we can do the Great Ocean Road. On the way back we will book business flights with a 5-7 day stopover in Fiji, also on points. So very excited!! Happy to share info on traveling on points/miles.
  12. Would they ever upgrade if you didnt bid?
  13. 1st one goes RT Melbourne (various ports around Australia) - 7 days 2nd one, leaves the day we get back from the 1st one. Same ship, Melbourne to New Zealand back to Melbourne. - 14 days I was able to call and they linked the reservation, saying now I didnt have to disembark. They put our Amex benefits on the reservation as well. And we were able to get the same room for the full 21 days. Love the idea of seeing Australia & New Zealand!
  14. Hello Hope everyone is doing awesome! We are looking at booking our 1st B2B. This will be for Australia/New Zealand on the Diamond Princess. Is there any maritime laws we need to worry about? Any easy way to book or are the normal channels fine (ie TA or direct)? Any price breaks when booking a B2B? Anything we should consider and or ask for when doing so to make the trip convenient (ie staying in the same cabin)? Thank you
