Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I hope it's ok to ask a different question about basic wifi. I want to purchase it for my Summit sailing to Alaska, but the only option available is premium. There's no option to purchase basic. Anyone know why?
  2. Is traffic more manageable early Saturday morning than on a weekday? We travel with only carryon and have TSA precheck and are currently weighing our flight options from Pier 91.
  3. Is the marathon going to be an issue for disembarking passengers going to the airport?
  4. I wanted to try deck 9 so it had the coverage overhead for shade. It did get hot in the daytime on those lower balconies with no covering. But I will have to decide if that is more valuable than Havana. We are not lay by the pool people though, so we didn't use Havana all that much. We will probably just stick with deck 9.
  5. I noticed on Horizon the Havana aft extended balconies are on decks 6, 7, 8 and 9, but on the Vista they are only on decks 6 and 7. Has that always been the case? I've been on the Horizon in one of those cabins on deck 8 and went to book the Vista and found they were not Havana cabins.
  6. Just coming back to give an update. The key apparently is not to call in the evenings. I tried the general phone number for the PVPs during the day, and I was able to get another PVP on the phone who took care of everything. In the evenings, that number must roll over to the foreign call center.
  7. I emailed my vacation planner to book a cruise, but her email reply states she is on vacation and won't be checking email. She stated to call the PVP phone number and whoever answers can help and to tell them I am working with her. When I did that, I got the foreign call center and someone clueless that I wanted to book and keep my PVP of record. Any idea how to go about this? She won't be back for over a week.
  8. We will be sailing soon from the Manhattan terminal returning on a Wednesday. We will be parked at the pier. Any advice on where to move the car for parking and then lunch before a 2:00 matinee? Also need to take into account we will probably want to stop at the TKTS booth for our tickets. It looks like recently there have been tickets available for several matinees on Wednesdays.
  9. I've done one Viking river cruise a few years ago and was recently looking at the Paris RT itinerary but want to look at alternatives because of their ridiculous final payment terms. What company would you say is most similar to Viking that I could look at?
  10. With the road closure at Denali, would you recommend skipping a visit while the road is closed? And if so, do you have suggested alternatives for 2 - 3 days post-cruise from Seward?
  11. The cruise I was looking at yesterday to Alaska went up $300 pp overnight with this promo.
  12. Yes, today I see it says "refundable", but yesterday when I booked, it said "non-refundable". I wonder if it was the promotion that ended yesterday that didn't give the option. The price is higher today.
  13. I'm reaching out to a CVP now that was referred to me, but does anyone know if they still receive credit for a cruise that's on hold with deposit not yet paid? I know Carnival recently changed the policy regarding that issue.
  14. I'm tearing my hair out with the Princess customer service reps. How does one choose a refundable deposit? It didn't give me the option at booking, so I thought maybe I had to call. As I've read in another post, the customer service is atrocious. Is the refundable deposit sometimes not available, depending on the cruise or the category you book? I'm trying to book Sun Princess.
  15. I'm looking at this small boat tour to Hubbard through Celebrity also. It is offered for May 16 next year, but for the whopping price of $425.99 pp. What glacier does the Kenai Fjord cruise from Seward go to, and how does it compare to Hubbard?
