You know ECCruise?  I hope we get to meet on a future cruise. Some people on this board I never agree with, some I do occasionally and others mostly always. You are one of the latter and you say it how it is. 

 

The library is used for a number of functions other than a reading room. I've been to religious services there, vow renewal ceremonies and they also use it for the special Best of the Best meals each cruise amongst other things. Not least Cruise Critic gatherings if the numbers aren't huge.  I often walk past with a "Special Function" sign outside and the room can be curtain divided In two. Definitely leave the library as is.

What is the Best of the Best meal?

My husband and I wish they would go back to doing in person port talks rather than the recorded sessions so that people can ask questions. We’d also like a return to an early and late evening show. Many times we miss the show because we’re still at dinner.

We’ve taken 4 AMA cruises. The friendliness of the officers and crew reminds me of Azamara.  Other than the Mekong cruise, the ones we’ve taken have always been the wine cruises with hosts that were winery owners-a lot of extra tastings and a dinner paired with those wines included. We took one Uniworld cruise but the captain barely spoke English so didn’t spend much time interacting with the passengers.

The last few posts led me to check my own Azamara account on their website.  After signing in, your Initials in the top right corner is a drop-down menu.  'Profile' has a further choice 'Offers & Communications' - and surprise! I was opted in for Royal but not for Celebrity or Azamara.  That's backward!  I fixed it, let's see if anything changes...

I just checked mine and Azamara is the only one I’m opted in for. However, I only receive emails from Celebrity and all of a sudden from Royal in the past couple weeks.

Is anyone else booked on a Journey's cruise and noticed something going on?  We are/were booked on the June 21 sailing which should have ended on July 3.  That cruise is now gone and there's not room in the schedule for it anymore.  Now there's a June 3 13 day cruise and the next cruise showing is a June 30, 16 day.

 

Has anyone heard anything????

 

 

We were booked on the 6/21 cruise too, along with the 7/3 one. I called Azamara after seeing a post in the roll call about the 7/3 cruise. They advised that the dates/itinerary of both cruises were changed because of a charter voyage that was moved from 2020 to 2021. We can stay on the altered sailings and receive an OBC, rebook another cruise and receive reduced OBC or cancel and receive a refund.  Since there are 12 days now between the two cruises we won’t be able to do both.

Does anyone know how the value of the complimentary nights is determined?  I had booked a 2021 cruise using two complimentary nights while onboard a cruise last fall, but ended up switching to a regular booking because the 50% off second passenger worked out to be less expensive.  We're moving up to Discoverer level after our next cruise, so I'm thinking that 4 nights would be a better value than a 50% off promotion?

Currently in 8011 on the Journey on B2B cruises next year.  I’m a little concerned about elevator noise and was wondering if anyone has any insight. Considering moving to a P2 category.

Our first cruise experience too - we took our children on a Fall Foliage trip from New York to Montreal around 1985.  Ship was in terrible shape then-broke down in Quebec and they had to bus us the last leg to Montreal.

Thank you! I've put it on my list. Did you stay an extra night in Budapest? We are thinking of doing that then training back to Munich.

We've done Danube cruises with Ama twice, and have spent 1-2 extra nights in Budapest. There is a company called Eat Meet Hungary and we've gone to dinner in their home twice. It was fantastic! http://eatmeet-hungary.com/

I noticed that Pursuit is not showing up as a ship option when you look for Azamara's roll calls - that could be part of the problem.

We're booked on the Xperience in November (southern loop). I've been trying to find a roll call for a few months, and finally just searched by ship name.

We usually take the train from Civitavecchia to Rome - cruise lines usually shuttle to right outside the pier and train station is an easy walk from there (some shuttles will take you right to the train station).

Does anyone know which pier we are docked at in Cozumel?? I found 2: San Miguel Pier and Puerta Maya (mainly used by Carnival). Last time in Cozumel (early 2000) we were right near the town but can't remember the name of the pier.

 

Thanks!

It looks like we're docked at the International Pier.

It shows up if you go to the page to check in or book excursions.

Azamara's website now shows Ocho Rios on December 16, but no shore excursions posted yet.
