We are on the 18 September cruise. We have checked in and have received the boarding passes and luggage tags (electronical).

yesterday 7 day new year cruise, balcony for 399€

 

The Americans are afraid and did not book/cancelled. Ship will be full of Brits and Germans. And Norwegians!

I booked 5 weeks b2b. Here comes the sun.....

We arrive Venice (Azamara Pursuit) at 7 AM on a Saturday. Our flight to Oslo has been changed to 8.55 AM😟. Do we have any possibilities to reach this plane? I know that the recommended check-in time at Marco Polo is minimum two hours, but when do they actually close the check-in desks?

Are luggage tags that important any longer? Just tell your cabin number when you check in, and they put it on manually and handwritten.

As you can see from this photo, this is the closest beach. The ship is QE2.

This is the beach in Katakolon:

At sea, AT&T's international package probably doesn't cover normal service. However, in Norwegian ports, and in most of the fjords, even while on board the ship, I believe your package should be OK - or?

Why do you call these islands for Loften?

The Speed train leaves every 10th minute and takes 20 minutes into the city centre. The station is situated next to the Oslo Opera which is a must to visit!

We'll be arriving on the Viking Star in late July. We want to visit the VASA museum during our time in port. Is the Oslo Pass worth it for the entry and transportation to get there? What else is close that we might enjoy during our day in Oslo?

I believe the Vasa museum is in Stockholm!

I got my Leffe in the fridge this time also - and Duvel in the bars!

Bergensexpressen informs me by e-mail that €, $, £ and credit cards are accepted!

Hi,

You can't buy tickets on the road train (Bybanen) any longer. You have to buy the tickets in advance from a ticket machine (using a credit card) or on Internet.

When I go to Bergen I use Visa everywhere - including the fish market and on the train. I'm quite sure that other cards are also accepted.

Screwcork

I would not bother with getting NOK before going to Norway. Everybody accepts credit cards - and we have ATMs! And as pointed out above, Norway is 20 per cent cheaper this year than last years - due to the exhange rate!

I used the preference form - and I got my Leffe Blonde - in the fridge!

The choice is easy: Istanbul!

I have a certain preference for Leffe Blonde. I informed Seabourn in advance about this preference, and I found 6 bottles in the fridge the first day!

Hi,

Forget about Pisa! You need at least one full day in Cinque Terre (five villages). Next time you can combine Pisa with Lucca or Florence!

Due to the high port fees:
