We are British but live in Spain and after mixed reports we decided to apply for our own visas for Egypt. While this was very easy and they came though in a few hours the changes were quite high and inconsistent,I had to pay approx 70 euros whilst my wife had to pay 109 euros. If Celestyal are apllying for the visa’s do you think we can get a refund.

Have cruised with them before on the Zenith and will be on the Sovereign next month out of Barcelona.
16th April.They are a very Spanish line and most of the other guest will be Spanish but don’t let that put you off,as all the staff speak English and tannoy messages are repeated in English. They may not have all the bells and whistles of some of the bigger lines but they are good at what they do. The shore excursions are mostly in Spanish this is true but they do some in English if they get enough takers or they may have a guide who speaks a couple of languages,say German and English and will repeat in both. The other good thing is all your drinks are included in the price. They also say the gratuity’s are also included in price but not sure about as I have read a few comments saying this is not the case and that gratuity was added to account at the end of cruise,will have to see next month. The entertainment is mainly dance based but the CD speaks mainly Spanish. But there are plenty of bars around the ship and the Spanish love to dance, ballroom and Latin.
Hope this helps.

Hi we were recently onP&O and took an extra case with (we were not flying) which we fill with incontinente pants and also inco sheets, if you have not come across these yet the are a sheet about 600x300 which go on top of the sheet you lay on with an absorbent layer which you lay on and a water proof layer on the other side. We just bagged them up in the morning and leave them in the bathroom and they were taken away. Are you in a accessible cabin because this does help as the except this kind of thing. We didn’t have a protective cover but did ask for a done was provided. Hope you enjoy your cruise.
