  1. Yet sometimes agents are cheaper than cruise line DIRECT? And who says you can't chance your arm within reason with 2 weeks to sailing date?
  2. If someone does me cruise/flight for me which is the package and totally fair and cruise only second bed if no solo cabins are available I will bite there hand off. Lots of time yet. As I said one of the main agencies in UK had great deals on with 4 days to go to sail.
  3. You MIGHT be able to deal a cruise agency down on price if it comes to sail against no sail I think. Last year Anthem T/A was still for sail 3 or 4 days before it departed.
  4. My thing is though with fly cruise you DON'T need the second flight if travelling solo. If they would do th second bed at cruise only I would bite their hand off so to speak
  5. Or would a solo person have to share or would they be a supplement on a fly cruise (the T/A 2024) Thanks in advance guys.
  6. And who would take over the QM2 if that happened? She was cruise director August/Sept last year
  7. I see some posts have been announced but not the cruise director yet. I kind of want to see Declan St Ledger get it.
  8. Hope the passenger has insurance.
  9. Do you know how much power those ovens use when on 18 hours a day perhaps? The ovens in Windjammer are only on a few hours a day.
  10. I am not surprised they are considering charging. They do use a hell of a lot of cheese and other ingridents and a hell of lot of power in those ovens. I have seen 3 full pizzas gone in 10 minutes on Anthem.
  11. Most expensive one outside of the super luxury ones from what I have seen.
  12. Those 3 countries to my knowledge are not on the U.S Visa Waiver Program. There are countries in Europe that are not and I think it is those three.
  13. We shouldn't be moaning about the cost. The UK is lucky to be on the visa waiver program 3 eu countries are not to my knowledge. And the refusal rate for the ESTA is like 10k of 1%. No way tourist visa refusal rates are 10k of 1% more like 5, 10 or even higher.
  14. It aired on channel 5 but then they axed it. My mum thought the yanks had ruined the kids fairytales because they had no history but Davey Crockett đŸ¤£ Was quite big in America though I think despite beng up against the football and the walking dead on Sunday nights
  15. I wonder how much of this world cruise is an attempt to cut into a segement of the older cruise focused lines by the duality of not only a world cruise -seeing if a world cruise works for Royal - with the twist of being the longest ever to draw people in. But also the thinking that by doing so they might cut into the Cunard, P&O and even MSC world cruise market segment at least for a year or two.
  16. Of course they are not exempt from the ecnomic factors but to my reading of this thread some people seem to be arguing that the entire upper tier of Royal loyalty be cut away in favour of something new. and have that past loyalty mean nothing. Do that people might walk away from Royal? Royal can turn nothing away if they make money on it. No one can to be fair
  17. I think a big problem is they jus don't have th venue with bar access spare. Olsen does a lot of group event bookings they had least 4 different booked groups on my cruise who took a private section in the observation deck on deck 9 and they also did their own things. They simply don't have the space to give a nightly meetup.
  18. Royal like any line will take what it can get in these post covid times. They are not going to cast any cateogry adrift.
  19. Also one Once Upon A Time the tv show Dorothy was gay and in love with little red riding hood.
  20. So you are saying they are tired of having Mario onboard are they? After all he only eats in the buffett doesn't gamble and doesn't upgrade to al inclusive and works to pay for this cruising. Before answering back please bare in mind no matter what they tell you the ships are NOT FULL
  21. As in Dorothy Gayle the wizard of Oz? I never understood that reference. I always thought it should have been one of the icon like Ellen DeGeneris. These days on most other line it is referred to now as the LGBTQIA meetup. Perhaps on Olsen they don't have venues with bars in them as well and the time to dedicate to it. They do dancing in the evenings and piano as well with breaks for the performers. On QM2 it has gone 90 minutes or more in the commoedore club on 9 deck nine.
  22. I am just off the borealis. Not that I am of either eilk but I am just curious as to why these where both absent from the daily programme especially when they have been every other line I have ever been on
  23. I board the Borealis tomorrow. My father was supposed to go with me. Can I claim something back from his travel insurane because of his death?
  24. Because people forget and go back to what they know and where they feel comfortable.
  25. I am thinking of what to do in the city before boarding the ship. They want me on at 1.30pm but that is not really enforced they won't care if I am late will they?
