Thank you. I called Azamara a few days ago and got the same information.
-
I just called Azamara and the rep said it was in the cruise documents sent out to me, but then realized it wasn't-- only day of embarkation number in case of travel emergencies. After putting me on hold for a while, she found the number for me. The number is specific for Azamara Onward, is available 24 hours a day and incurs a $7.95 per minute charge. The number I have is for calls originating in the US: 866-459-8990

Does anyone have emergengcy contact phone numbers for Azamara? I would like to leave that information for family memebers to be able to reach us if necessary. Other cruiselines we have sailed with have that in the cruise documents. TIA

Ours is a few weeks earlier.

We’re doing that with Spain Day Tours in a few weeks. They will book the Alhambra tickets for you in advance.

We booked with bellaitalia tours for a private excursion from Livorno tomCinque Terre for our upcoming trip.

I’m happy you had a good experience. We have booked several with them for our cruise in the fall. And I agree, Cristina has been great so far. -
Impressions of First Time Oceania cruiser (on Nautica)
gracebest replied to KathyL2537's topic in Oceania Cruises
We first cruised with Windstar about 2 years ago, and have been on 2 more since then. We have also cruised with O. We really enjoyed WS. Yachts only have about 300 passengers and sailing ships about 200. The motor yacht cabins are so much larger- OV cabins are 275sq ft. With nice bathrooms and walk-in closets. The downside is the balcony cabins are just French balconies. The highest category cabins have real balconies. Specialty restaurants included- you reserve when you board. We’ve experienced friendly staff. In fact on the last cruise, the captain had breakfast and sometimes lunch in the terrace and always joined passengers at their tables. They have a great bbq night on the deck, weather permitting. One time it was held in the dining room because of bad weather. -
We were there about a year ago and also stayed at the Skuggi Hotel. It was a few blocks from the city center, but we don’t mind walking. The breakfast was very good. We booked our own flights and booked a shuttle with Air Direct. I can’t remember the price but it was very reasonable. Choose the option for hotel drop off. We weren’t sure how long it would take us to get luggage and clear customs, so we booked a shuttle time over an hour an d an half after arrival time. However, we got through quickly and just went to the Air Direct desk in the airport and they were able to get us on the earlier shuttle. However, get there quickly, because the people behind us had to wait for their scheduled time because the van was full. We booked a Golden Circle tour and a walking tour pre cruise. It was an awesome trip. Enjoy!

Hello I have so enjoyed your posts. I noticed that your next cruise leaves from Nice/ Monte Carlo. Have you worked hotel/ transportation logistics yet? We will be doing the same in October and are just starting to look at the options. We’re not sure if we’ll get a hotel pre cruise in Nice or Monte Carlo, but are leaning towards Nice.
-
We will also be on Onward in October. Please post if you find anything to do there. I haven't found mucha and the few ship excursions don't really interest us.

Can we rent bicycles at the Rangiroa dock?

When will you be there? We would also like to rent bikes, so would love for you to post your experience? Thanks! -

gracebest replied to Piaa's topic in Pacific Islands, All
Did you end up going with Ato on Fakarava. I am having a hard time finding excursions for our upcoming cruise. Do you have recommendations for Ranigiroa, Moorea, Raitaea, Nuku Hiva? -
I know you are asking about 404 , but we had friends in 403. Their cabin was the same size as ours, but configured a bit differently. They couldn't see the tv from the bed, if that matters. They also had a lot of anchor noise when we were tendering. But, they said it wouldn't be a deal breaker if they got that cabin again.

We were just there yesterday and it was rainy and foggy. We did take a bus tour that we bought tickets for in town. Because lots of the upper roads were closed, we only went to two viewpoints, one being the waterfall. We met some people there who walked there from the cruise ship They had to walk on the side of the road and it often didn’t have much shoulder area. It is a steep walk, but doable. There were several mini rental cars still available when we were there. You can’t miss them, they’re right in the town center.

We are doing Windstar in a few weeks and we overnight in Dublin and Belfast.

That is interesting as we are booked on a cruise the end of May and have 2 grandchildren with us in a 2 bedroom and thought they would get the soda package, but was told no.
-
We received ours 58 days in advance and they were the same flights we would have chosen.
-
I’m glad it worked out for you!
-
I did mine while I was on the phone with my TA and about ready to book my cruise. It showed up on My NCL almost immediately. Now whenever I look for cruises on NCL there is a little banner that says military discount will be applied.
-
I think so, too! It seems to be the only date that has that itinerary, and then later in the month they start rotating between Mexico itinerary and ours that include Tortola, St Thomas, DR, and GSC. I love Tortola, but hate the port time!
-
There are no port changes on the Escape when it changes from Port Canaveral to Miami departure. The only difference is a few changes in port times and Miami is Sunday to Sunday.

Yes, that’s what I thought. Thanks.
