Blue Eyed Belfast Belle

Oh I do hope not!! There is life in the old girl yet!! I do prefer the Radiance class over the Vision class but if Brilliance is not replaced it only leaves 3 ships in the Med next year (Symphony from Barcelona, Odyessy from Rome and Explorer from Venice if you don't count Rhapsody since she is moving between Cyprus and Hafia. Not much choice and the prices will skyrocket so a 4th ship in the Med will be welcomed.

Oooooh - I hope that means we are getting Enchantment in Europe next Summer instead!

I rang Crown & Anchor (only on hold for 15 mins!) and the agent said that the Wonder blocks are on back order with no date of when they are expecting them.

I liked the package deal from Cyprus on Jewel last year. The sailings on Rhapsody from Hafa must not be selling well as they are very cheap.

It was me and I use the Aircoach from Belfast to Dublin so no parking required ut an additional £22.50 My last DUB-BCN roundtrip was £257 but I was able to get a multicity DUB-FLL then BCN-BFS for a TA for £330. For me the sailings from US are always a lot less expensive compared to Europe

Mitch Merucci has said on the socials that he is boarding Oasis of the Seas tomorrow (Friday 22nd July 2022 for 5 weeks

Our prices in Europe have become so expensive, especially with flight prices these days. It is usually less expensive to fly from Ireland to US for a cruise than it is for me to sail from Europe.

Anyone received a Wonder block yet? It is 11 weeks since we disembarked the Wonder TA and we were told it would arrive in 4-6 weeks.

Yes it was, the entertainment staff were up on the stage above the pub. It was a good night however COVID was rife on the Wonder TA after the New Years Eve party and the 70s night!!

There was a 70s night on the Wonder TA in April/May time

Is this the offerings for the Fall TA?

I noticed that @bigeck but only on cerrain sailings. Not as easy to navigate 😳

No worries...some day I will get to sail with my namesake 🙂

I am afraid I am not Hello Clo...just regular Clo from Belfast! 🙃

Mike Szwajkowsk was on another Cruise Critic thread and said he joined Ovation today.

Mike - I sailed with you on the Wonder TA and you really made our trip. So much to do and you were very visible around the ship...I loved the Music Festival and the Crew Talent Show. I look forward to sailing with you again in the future.

Mystic Meg says you would be right since it is time for her 5 year dry dock...just keep her away from any cranes!!

Ooooh....any hints for Europe 2024? 🙂

I keep checking for the new thread!! 😉

Just off Vision on Friday. The Loyalty Ambassador says that there is a major supply chain issue and blocka are taking 8 - 12 weeks for delivery.

Just left Vision on Friday. Michelle Oliviera was as absent as she was when I sailed with her last year...only seen on TV, in theatre and at 70s night! My friend is currently on Jewel and the CD is Clo O'Connor.

If anyone is interested there is a Monarch block on ebay...postage is a bit steep though!

On the Wonder TA we were given a form to fill out to get the blocked mailed out as they had none in stock
