rafinmd posted a topic in Cunard Line,
My big bag sitting in Luggage Forward's Red Hook office.
E -ticket, Cunard Health Questionnaire, and ArriveCan Code
Proctored Covid test printout
Amtrak Pre-travel health check completed
And advance checkin to my hotel
I hope to be on the road early, on my train before 10, and in New York before noon.
This will be my first time on Cunard since I was thrown off QM2 in Perth 2+ years ago and I hope everything is ready.

LauraS,Live from SoA 8-19 Jul Melodies of Ireland
Tothesunset posted a topic in Saga Cruises,
By way of introduction we are both 65-year-old retirees with over 200 days on Silversea, a QM2 crossing and a 14-day Seabourn Caribbean cruise under our belts along with a couple of river cruises. Saga has drawn us for this trip because we, at the time of booking last spring, didn't know what the international travel arena held for 2022. In addition we haven't done a British Isles itinerary and felt that Saga's all inclusive sailings would fit our needs.

LauraS,Summit 6/26/2022 Bermuda Sailing – Live Blog, Cat Blog, Vlog!
David Kane posted a topic in Celebrity Cruises,
Good Morning.
After 2 years away from Celebrity (I wonder what happe…oh, wait), we are once again ready to get back on Board and see what has changed post-cruising-apocalypse. Lingering suspicions remain that this ‘Live’ Blog will quickly become a ‘Recap’ after day 3 as is usually the case, but until then, we’ll try to keep things tight.

LauraS,Live from the Silver Spirit, Venice to Venice seven days.
fudge posted a topic in Silversea,
So where do we start? Well after a tiring journey from the UK via Paris we finally reached Venice.
We reached Venice around mid-day, got to the baggage reclaim, its always an anxious wait to see if your luggage appears on the belt, thankfully after about 15 minutes the cases popped their heads up.

LauraS,Seabourn Sojourn 5229A Rome-Rome June 26-July 10-Live
texanaust posted a topic in Seabourn Cruise Line,
We departed Trieste and another cruise for Civitavecchia today. I thought taking three trains and spending 8 hours traversing Italy would be fun…I was wrong. The Regionale trains (4 of the 8 hours) were packed and not very comfortable. However the Frecciarossa 1000 from Venice to Rome was excellent. Definitely splurge for Executive class. The carriage has 10 seats total and full dining/drink service included. For perhaps a $50 upgrade, it was well worth it. Tomorrow we embark!
PS. This live review will mainly focus on the ship, the food and the service. Don’t expect lengthy port reviews from me…I will be comparing the current quality to what we experienced pre-Covid.

LauraS,Live from Quantum of the Sea's June 20th.
whitshel posted a topic in Royal Caribbean International,
But here we are finally. Our 1st Alaska cruise but probably our 20th overall. 15 or so with Rccl. We have been on 3 cruises since Dec 2021, Carnival Radiance 3 day Baja, Odessey of the seas over new years and the Celebrity Edge over spring break. (1st time on Quantum class and Edge class) so this is Numero #4 in 6 months which is crazy for us. Usually once per year.

CC Help Jenn,LIVE Carnival Ecstasy 6/20-6/25
MeganGC1983 posted a topic in Carnival Cruise Lines,
Once again, it’s my pleasure to take you all along on a fabulous getaway via Carnival Cruise Line. This time, it’s a kids cruise on the Ecstasy from Mobile, AL to Cozumel and Progreso. My kids are 11, 8 and 7, with the 7 yo getting his blue card this sailing. So pull on your responsible parent pants/hoochie daddy shorts, pre-purchase cabin booze, budget time for plenty of bathroom breaks, and fill up the gas tank for an overnight road trip to ALABAMA! Hope you’ll follow along!

CruzerDeb posted a topic in Princess Cruises,
Booked this cruise on 12/24/20, thinking that surely Covid would be a thing of the past in a year and a half. We all know how that went. This trip was a surprise Christmas gift to my mom; gifted Xmas 2021, so I successfully kept it a secret for a year!

LauraS,Same Ship Different Season: An Equinox LIVE Solo Review (6/18/22)
GenerationX posted a topic in Celebrity Cruises,
Guess what I’m doing in 3 days?
Flying to Florida to sail away again on the Equinox! Anybody in the mood for another GenX live review?
When last we spoke (at the end of Gen Z and I’s wonderful mother-daughter Millennium cruise in March), I was due to stay on land until hubby and I sail together again in late July.
But then came a series of both fortunate and unfortunate spring events including…

LauraS,Radiance Live Review 6/10-13/2022
Wanna_Cruize posted a topic in Carnival Cruise Lines,
We're back onboard the beautiful Carnival Radiance for a live review! I'll go over new stuff we've learned, since this is our first time in an Ocean Suite (got an upsell offer I couldn't refuse)
On this trip is my DH (63) and myself (62). We're newly-minted Diamond cruises, (as you can see by my signature) and this is actually our 49th Carnival cruise. For those who are math aficionados, it becomes obvious how we got to this point. We live in SoCal (North San Diego County) and are great fans of the 3-4 night cruises. Ws cried a bit when they retired Imagination and Inspiration but we've made Radiance our new home, and are happy to have you join us.
I'll add some of the questions I wanted to answer on this trip, but if anyone has something they'd like to know, just post it here and I'll try and find out for you. Keep in mind that this is a 3-night cruise, so it goes by pretty fast. So, post your questions quickly.

CC Help Jenn,Live - Sky Princess - Norway Fjords - 11 June - 14 nights
Airwavey posted a topic in Princess Cruises,
My wife - Pip - and I are on our first ever cruise (though we are somewhat 'experienced' travellers since retirement 5/6 years ago, travelling, pre-covid, for up to 6 months total per year. And as a point of reference too we haven't put a bag into a plane hold all that time either, travelling with one 40 litre and one 30 litre rucksack with max weight of 10 kgs, so packing for this with proper luggage was an experience in itself)
