PRMinx We have used FlightEase several times in recent years and I remember I was panicked the first time when our names were mushed together…but, it’s fine. It really is.

We have used FlightEase a few times and saved a great deal by doing it, never paying until the cruise money is due. We are Executive Platinum on American Airlines so the mileage is important to us. AA has announced that starting May 1 travel on a ticket bought from outside the AA approved network will no longer accrue mileage. No one can tell me if FlightEast is an approved agency until April. I plan to pay for my tickets before May 1…. Just in case.

Isr45 Posted Wednesday at 04:45 PM Just received an email re November 25 Seabourn Ovation transatlantic crossing to Barbados has been changed to San Juan due to “deployment changes” Is this the Barcelona to Barbados crossing in 2024? we are booked on it, but haven’t heard anything yet. Personally, I’d rather end in Puerto Rico. I’ve heard that Barbados airport is a nightmare.

We are just off the Sojourn after a glorious 44 nights beginning in Monte Carlo. We had a wonderful time and found the staff was extremely attentive to us. I never had to ask for my coffee with almond milk after the third morning and at Trivia a glass of water with no ice appeared before me without asking. The entertainment was wonderful, the food was tasty and the staff was always smiling and asking what we needed. This was our fourth Seabourn cruise since Covid and we found the staff very well trained. Our first Seabourn cruise was only in 2019 so I don’t know what it was like years before, but I can say that nothing is the same as it was years and years ago!

@bradatbradruben That seems like a good plan. We used Luggage forward for our cruise in May/June and we were quite pleased. But, you can only pack clothing and shoes. Check out their website.

We join the Sojourn next week and stop in St Tropez on Oct 11….just missing the big sales. My husband is thrilled. Me, not so much.

Or, stay on board to Miami and fly home from there!

James Templeton is the CD and Olivia Stearman the ACD. Both are incredibly talented, fun and outgoing people.

Hello all. We are also currently on the Quest and we are having a fabulous time. We are a bit over halfway through our 21 nights and we have found the staff, food and entertainment to be wonderful. In fact, I would say the entertainment (the Seabourn Singers and Dancers) to be the best group we have ever encountered….Such talent!! David and Tabitha (Entertainment Director and Entertainment Manager….no longer CD and ACD) are beyond lovely and fun. The weak link (for me) are the excursions. One really horrendous one was a boat excursion from Vis to H’var. Very disappointing, unsafe and uncomfortable.

That’s not good. We have an 11:40am flight out of Venice that morning. We hope to be the first ones off the ship that morning…. Fingers crossed. 🤞

Rebels82 - Really odd. That’s going down to the Caribbean. We get off the ship that day in Miami! Call your TA tomorrow and ask.

Covepointcruiser - Good Suggestion! Thanks…

Vineyard View - Yes, many of the ports are going to be just walking around in the old town. I did book going to see the Lippazzaner Horse Farm for June 16. We did something similar in Hungary years ago and it was really fun and different.

Rebels82 - I must admit, that sounds odd. Nothing at all on any day? What ship and what dates?

Vineyard View - I think we are on the same cruise….Venice to Venice 5/27-6/17 I just went over all the excursions yesterday and basically took most of the ones that had a boat involved!
