It’s in the directory somewhere or possibly on a card left in the room - can’t remember exactly. Yep - great idea. I used it every day for dinner wine order - and it worked ! Not sure when it was introduced.

Telephone number (line) to order your wine

It’s possible to make calls and texts over the internet without a sim - WiFi calling - text can be received and sent via iCloud if you have iPhone . Your phone may have an e-sim built in if it’s not too old - that’s probably how the SOS call works. What phone is it and model ? all phones have either an e-sim built in or a SIM card slot or both.

Transatlantic is great - did Southampton to Barbados via Azores and Barcelona to Barbados via canaries and cape Verdi. loved the Azores - love to do again some time.

I wish ! Enjoy 😊

Yes that’s classed as fully vaccinated - original 2 plus 1 booster regardless of how long ago. (Probably because extra boosters were not pushed out to everyone like the first one)

Thanks for posting jessybell - I’m interested in peoples feedback - especially on Aurora and Arcadia as those are the 2 ships we always go on.

Good to hear. Wish p&o did the same - consistently.

Thankfully both ships are adults only now !!

Rubbish

MB - Would you recommend MSC ? It’s not one I have thought about trying.

People have had bad experiences and have genuine concerns about problems with drunk and or abusive behaviour. It doesn’t matter even if it just happened once - it is distressing for those concerned and would spoil the holiday. I sympathise and hope something is done about this as it’s becoming more frequent. To laugh it off is an insult to those affected.

That’s really sad

Dreadful - I would have seriously considered getting off next stop and flying home. Well done for not saying anything - that must have been difficult. I might have lost it.

Can’t get the picture out of my head from the first definition in the urban dictionary - must be an Americanism😀

Right - I’m going to assume it means a reference to lowering of standards - the etymology being cheesewheels were around once and replaced by an inferior product. thanks for replies - I will try and incorporate it in a post sometime !!!!!!!

Yep I did that yesterday ! Bizarre

I’m still none the wiser ! Is it an insult ? and if so why and how is it related to cheese ?

Is that good or bad ! ?

Sorry - just new to me and I don’t understand the meaning !

Can anyone explain what cheesewheel means ? Can’t find any etymology and I’ve never heard this expression !

Great service !

Going in May on Marella Explorer 2 to Croatia Italy and Greece - great itinerary . Will report back. I wish they did a few ex UK instead of always fly cruises - but like you said TUI are usually pretty good with flights and connections - in my experience anyway. But we did go on one ex uk one when cruising started again - again on Marella Explorer 2. Newcastle to Scotland immediately after Scotland allowed ships in again. It was brilliant - and the excursions were really well organised and top quality. Really nice welcome back from the crew and we were welcomed by pipers on arrival in Dundee.

Incredible - the wedding fight !! Great start. Good to hear they were all ejected.

Yes all inclusive - I’ve only been on Marella Explorer 2 which is adults only and it has always been very good. No problems so far. Excellent service - checkin and all bars and restaurants and good entertainment. Great staff. Very friendly and helpful. Never done a Christmas or New year though.
