  1. Halifax has some fantastic restaurants which you may need after all those sea days
  2. It’s not available to Canadians either! Oh wait we get a 15% off sale
  3. For cruisers sailing out of Ravenna in the next few days, you’d better double check with the cruise line. 7Italy Posts
  4. She might have been better to disembark in San Juan. One of the kids could have flown there to help with paperwork & logistics
  5. I’ve had fantastic private shore excursions for 1/2 the cost of Celebrity one that comes to mind is Istanbul. We went everywhere in the city. Even Hagia Sophia which was supposed to be closed! We had a delicious lunch in a local restaurant of Turkish food. The guide then took a few of us to the spice market. Things got a bit tricky when he couldn’t find a cab (the bus took the rest of the group including DH) back to the ship. Luckily we agreed to pay a cab driver double the fare. We made it! Celebrity was charging $250 a person. We paid $100 for a far better tour.
  6. Love another great review by @GenerationX…but puh-leese post about your Catalina excursion
  7. Montegue on the Gardens (part of Red Carnation Hotels). Across the street from the British Museum. Excellent service, comfy beds and a lovely bar.
  8. You’re a very good wife and deserve an expensive trinket for your generosity 🤪
  9. If you’re fit and have carry on it shouldn’t be too much of a problem to walk…look at Google maps first. We were there last year but stayed the night before.
  10. With that your husband should have reported him to security
  11. Great review but don’t forget to tell us about your day in St Thomas…
  12. Yes there is self disembark. 12:35 isn’t too bad but try and get off as soon as you’re able. I’m not sure about Uber but there are taxis. The airport isn’t too far from the port.
  13. Hong Kong is very easy to get around on your own. It depends how far the ports are from the sites. Perhaps check tripadvisor as well.
  14. I hope you told guest services about Carol’s cold shower…
  15. That happened to me in Lima when we were on a repositioning cruise on the Celebrity Infinity. We were dropped off on a street. I saw a chocolate shop which I knew would have the kind of souvenirs my friends & family would like. I was happily shopping up a storm when the guide came to drag me out to his chosen store. He & the manager nearly got into fisticuffs! DH just stood there gobsmacked. I was very firm and finished my shopping. Then just stood outside he chosen store!
  16. Hooray, another Charla review! Can hardly wait to read. I’d do your MSC review on that board but post a link here to it.
  17. Likely the place you ate. Most restaurants bring the card machine to you to use. Enjoy your cruise!
  18. When you’re jetlagged and dragging luggage, a taxi from Paddington to your hotel is not a splurge but a necessity
