Thank you!

Question???? If our cruise doesn’t leave Copenhagen until 9pm, can I do the 

earlier check in and then get back off the boat to enjoy Copenhagen?

Thanks everyone for the info, yes I discussed all my concerns with TA and

went with TravelGuard. I also did some comparisons on insuremytrip.com which

came out compatible to what TA was giving me.

thanks all

Can anyone tell me if they have used Travelguard for there travel insurance for 

international cruise? Also if you could tell me what you think if you did use them?

Troublechef,

Some questions……

did you test yourself for Covid? Is Oceania still quarantining people with Covid?

did you have travel insurance and did they cover your hotel and expenses when you

left the cruise and quarantined?

Great thanks for info, I’m on the Riviera in September and I’m trying to follow the

boards regarding Covid and the protocols  Oceania has in place.

Has there been any Covid issues on board? Great reviews and pictures

What is the Covid protocol. If you test positive do you go to the dr and then they

quarantine you for 5 days? Or is there a protocol for testing on and off the ship?

Or is it the honor system if you test positive? Just wondering because some people

get it and have no symptoms and some get mild symptoms, just trying to figure 

things out. Appreciate any input.

thanks

Thank you Pete and everyone else for you input. I appreciate it and will rethink

 My itinerary for London. Pete you were very helpful 

Need some advise…I will be in the Tilbury port overnight and wanted to take the train to Fenchurch station and wanted to know if it was safe to travel on, even at night?

Also this was my itinerary I’m planning would

appreciate any import if I’m crazy ha ha or if doable as I’ve never been to London before, i

want to get the most of my time there………..

Regarding OBC~ my travel agent said, he can not transfer OBC from one cabin to another

but you can use your OBC to purchase something for another cabin.

I’m going to reach out to my travel agent and ask him, see if I can get an answer

Can I use obc to pay for upgraded beverage package for another cabin?

Thanks for your response, I can see it will be a crap shoot if people aren’t feeling

good, to get tested and be honest or not. I do agree with you about being honest and

able to sleep better at night 🙂  I do have another question, do you know around about

if there were a lot of Covid cases on board?

Did you voluntarily go to get tested at infirmary or did you have a home test with you

and tested yourself? I’m tying to find out if you feel sick is it now more on the

honor system of getting tested for Covid and being quarantined or what is Oceania’s 

protocol?

thanks

Sending prayers 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Yes- do a mock booking. Check the O Life price on top page.

On next page, check “w/o air.” On the following page you’ll see a new price. The difference between them is the “air credit.” 
No transfers w/o air (unless you do their way overpriced “per person” [rather than per room] hotel too).  Not that big a deal to. DIY.

thank you

If you are using their Hotel package  I would check with Oceania 

some have posted  that they do even if not using their air

thank you

If you fly Bizclass, even their Air Department will tell you to DIY.

If you book your own airfare, does Oceania give you a credit towards air?

and also do they still give you all the transfers ? Airport- hotel, hotel to ship etc….

Hi! Going on my 5th NCL cruise (2nd on Breakaway) this summer. Here are a few tips I can think of:

 

1. I always bring 3M hooks (they don't damage the walls and come in so many varieties).

 

2. I bring a few collapsible bins (fabric ones that fold flat and don't take up too much room in the suitcase) to use on the closet shelves, etc. to keep my socks, etc. organized. The smaller ones are great for the bathroom too!

 

3. I'm a scrap booker. I also try to bring a large manilla envelope for each day so I remember what I did. I put the dailies, tickets, etc. from each day and write the date and any memorable moments on the outside. It's amazing what you forget with all of the fun you're having.

 

4. Definitely go to the cruise director's activities on the first night and introduce yourself! On my first cruise we did this and 12 years later I am still in contact with Colin (our first CD) and he is actually one of my best friends! His parents even stayed with me when they came to the US!

 

5. I always pack a few extra hangers - just an FYI.

 

6. I always pack too much! Lol!

 

7. An over-the-door shoe holder is an amazing organizing tool - especially when traveling with a family. It can hold toiletries, toys, chargers, etc. (this is where your 3M hooks help).

 

8. I ALWAYS bring an extension cord and a surge protector strip. There are never enough outlets in the cabins.

 

9. Ladies, one word - wristlets! Great for your card, phone, and all of those receipts you get throughout the day. Lol!

 

10. Have fun and enjoy every minute! It always goes by too fast!

I loved Colin, he was my first CD on the Dawn back in 2005!

I did pay for early bird check in so I guess I don’t have to worry

Thanks

Do I need to have the internet package to use there computers to check in for my flight? I’m flying Southwest and would like to be able to check in right at that 24 hour mark and we will be at sea our last day.

You mean lack of elevators! Everyone says you wait to long for elevators, I don’t know but I will find out soon. I’m sailing on her in 3 weeks

Thank you for the quick response and your great review! oh and by the way I read on these post that basket with liner in it, is for used towels

I used Marylou last May on my Hawaii cruise. I thought they were great used them
