  1. Agree. Did not trust SS for our 1/13 /25 Tokyo hotel so booked Tokyo station hotel for 3 nights . Stayed there 15 years ago so don’t remember much other than great location
  2. We stayed at the Sofitel for 3 nights after our cruise down from Hawaii. Well run hotel , Booked a number of local tours. We enjoyed the food etc. stayed in an overwater room . Only swam form the beach because the currents at the point were swift.
  3. Terry agree on the Oberoi in Agra . Where else can you lie in bed and look at the Tag over your feet! We just booked the guide you used in Tokyo. Thank you for the name
  4. One would think they would not repeat what they did to us on the 1/6 trip from Aquba .
  5. We have 90 days on SB and 30 some on SS with an upcoming one on SS. They are variations of a theme. . If I had to pick one I would pick SB but barely . SS was not very forthcoming with their handling of our recently cancelled Red Sea trip but they had a lot of ships in the air. Both have the same clientele but SB peeps seem a bit more relaxed. Can’t go wrong with either.
  6. We have asked for the charge for canceling our bus class tix to Jordon and back from Dubai , only $400 luckily and no answer in theory we have $100 fcc for the trip we transferred to. Back to Seaborne after we take the trip. Glad the Moon is cruising again .
  7. You will enjoy it and the red fort nearby . We were staying at the Oberoi nearby and once you work thru the phalynx of vendors outside the gates it is serene inside. Arrive early if you can
  8. Sounds like when they told us the Moon for our 1/6 trip would be in 2 places at once . The Moon is star crossed it seems
  9. I think SS is doing a decent job on this one. Better than what we got for our 1/6 Moon . We stayed once at the Oberoi there and had a drink at the Trident which is basically attached and it is a nice property
  10. I truly hope some of the crew is enjoying our silver suite 1005 . I am glad they cancelled us but maybe the crew can enjoy sleeping in nice quarters as they keep trucking around Africa
  11. It was cut out 10 years ago. The Benefits were the lounge and occasional upgrade. I was/am a UA flier so rarely used them
  12. Same for me at United at 2mm . Had a delta flying colonel card for years (because of using a lot of Dl airfreight) great benefits but they dropped it a few yers ago. Good thread
  13. A lot of fuel burned with no revenue. Airlines can swap planes can SS swap ships ?
  14. The good news I guess is you got 20% and your money back. When we backed out on 12/8 fir the 1/6 trip from Aquba we got credit for another trip and if we took a trip less than the $29 k investment no cash back just credit again
  15. You have provided a great and measurable service to future SS travelers headed to the region and beyond
  16. Glad that SS may be getting their act together and treating passengers well? We had till 12:8 to decide on the 1/6 trip on the Moon the choice was cancel with credit( not refund) for the $28k we paid or go or forfeit . No consideration for air visas etc
  17. SS is Spirt airline it seems. This was to be our return from SB
  18. Wow. I now am very glad we cancelled. What a mess for all on all levels. They probably will sail empty to Dubai as they must have a full ship from there headed to Mumbai ?
  19. I hope they have a great and safe time. I’m sure they will be well treated by SS. In many ways sorry we canceled on 12/8 but too many (red) sea days
  20. Great stuff looks like Drake lake so a quiet 2 days ahead?
  21. Our deadline was 12/8 we tried just doing the second leg etc . The trip was obviously fully paid for but we had to make the call stay or move by 12/8. We did it on 12/7
  22. We were told if we did not do the 1/6sail we would forfeit .they would not give us credit for first leg even if we joined in Muscat . So we moved the funds to a 25 trip.Royal Jordanian refunded our bus class tix minus $200 per ticket .
