AF-1

These pics were taken in Tracy Arms. I have not been to Glacier Bay; but don't think Tracy Arms has nothing to offer. It is breath taking just the same. The naturalists are onboard telling you all about the glaciers and bay.

Hello, my wife and I are about to put a deposit on a AMA Waterways river cruise. We have never been on one; but our friends say they are great and close to all the action. They told us they are pretty much inclusive with everything except gratuities; and some booze. My question to all those who have been; what can we expect; we are nervous since we have only been on the Big Cruise Lines; such as Royal Caribbean; NCL, and Princess. We are looking to Book Ama Serena for a 7 night Enchanting Rhine river cruise; with four days in Zurich and Lucerne prior to Sailing. Any feedback and tips would be much appreciated. Thanks All. We plan on going 6-17 May 2020. We are working with a travel agent; but have not put the deposit in yet. We are going to book french balcony with outside balcony cabin. BB on Cielo deck. Our agent is getting us about $400 off the Ama brochure price plus a $300 gift card.

Thanks jtheile, appreciate your reply

Good to know; thanks for the tip

If you stay at the Embassy Suites, Courtyard Marriott, Hyatt Place in Secaucus; there is a bus stop to NYC right across the street. The hotel can give you all the info. Hope this helps. You could then take taxi, uber/lyft to cruise port when you leave. From Secaucus to Cape Liberty; maybe 20 to 30min.

The ferry from Manhattan to Red Hook Brooklyn cruise terminal leaves from lower manhattan; in the financial district. If you are asking about ferry from any other part of Manhattan; I think a taxi would be more suited to get to the Brooklyn cruise terminal

someone has posted a video of the ferry to Red Hook Port. You get off the ferry and it is about and the cruise port entrance is right there to the left

how long was the van ride to the cruise port?

I am sure someone will post pics prior to December; It's maiden voyage and sailings start this Oct; is that correct? if so, then I am sure that the two suites have bookings; everyone wants to see what that suite and the window suites look like

You can book thru Princess or online. I used EZ Air in Feb; had no issues like you mentioned. Call EZ toll free number and see what happens

13cheermom, you should be fine. I used it earlier this year RT to Fort Lauderdale. The price was great and no issues; Seems like int'l trips can get confusing; you should have no worries with booking EZ Air

Why not keep the two cabins and switch people around when you get to the ship. That way you will be able to book your flights with no problem. It may be too late to book the family suites; they go pretty fast. I stayed in a family suite and they work great for the kids; they have their own bedroom and bathroom

There is a gas station two blocks from your hotel; it is quite large and they sell stuff like that; its across the street from Carl Junior's burgers. If you walk; when you leave your hotel turn left away from airport. You will pass the Marriott and Hilton hotels; right past the hilton will be a traffic light. Carl Juniors is at the light and across the street is the mini mart

This is a story that no one wants to experience. Things like this should not happen; it is frustrating to go thru such a hassle, and telephone wait time. I do hope this gets fixed quickly
