And it could change again. Fusina is closer to Venice and cheaper for taxi options.

We sailed Sept 8 from Fusina on Pursuit. We took a cab from Piazzale Roma, cost was 50 euros payed with a card. Very easy and much less than an Azamara transfer.

On day 3 of the cruise the correct OBC and premium beverage package showed up on our account.

If I spend the money on my personal CC, will it be a PITA to get a refund from AZ? I have emailed my TA about this, she may be able to get it resolved while we're on the ship.

Boarded Pursuit yesterday in Venice. My invoice shows I should have $ 250 OBC and the premier beverage package from my TA. There is no record of this on my booking. Reception is contacting HQ to straighten it out. How long is it likely to take to see these amenities on my account? I'd like to start spending the OBC on speciality dining and other things. Knowing the tech problems Azamara has will I see my amenities before the end of the cruise?

Just embarked Pursuit there yesterday. We took a taxi from Piazzale Roma, 50 euros flat fee. There are no public busses to get there, you will need to arrange for a pick up. As we were the first cruise ship to depart from there it is unknown if taxis will be waiting for ships that disembark at Fusina. It's a modern building set up with computer terminals for check in. There's a short walk from the terminal building to the ship, using a gangway. Easy peasy.

Oceania trivia on R ships is always in the show lounge. I'm a trivia buff and have always played on 6 Oceani cruises so will be interested to see how it compares on Sept 8 Pursuit cruise.

Pursuit is in drydock now. I'm scheduled to sail on her from Venice/Fusina in a little over a week, September 8. Will she be ready? Azamara wouldn't cancel a cruise at the last minute would they?

The voltaren is already packed for my husband. We hike frequently in National Parks and know to use it ahead of time.

Using the AZ shore ex credit to go to Krka National Park. it's using up $278 of the $300 shore ex credit.

That same tour is being offered on Pursuit Sept. 8 sailing, The price now is $139. We are there on aThursday Sept. 12 so maybe sights in Hvar Town will be open. I'm also looking at bike tours, knowing where we tender to will let me know which bike tours I can book.

Thank you so much, that info is what I was looking for. A friend told me to take the ferry to Mlini and spend some time there, then go on to Caveat, and then return to Dubrovnik. I have all day to do my own small towns tour.

Did the ferry to Cavtat leave from the Old Port or did you have to get to the main port docks? I'm not finding ferry schedules that show any from the Old Town. Do you have a link to ferry information?

I will be in Dubrovnik on Sept. 13 from Azamara Pursuit, a small ship. We are the only ship in port that day. We are tendering in. I wish we were docking as all the independent tours or ferries leave from the dock area. I've been to Dubrovnik 3 times and have no interest in the Old Town this time. I plan to take a ferry to Mlini for the day, get away from the city.

My Pursuit cruise will be in Dubrovnik September 13 from 8:00am to 10:00pm. We are the only ship there that day. For planning independent shore ex, I'd like to know where the tenders drop you off. Most tours do pick ups at the cruise ship docks. If AZ tenders drop off at the Old Town then I will need to take a bus to the cruise docks. Can anyone who has been to Dubrovnik recently tell me where we'll be dropped off?

All of the cruisers in the next few months are very lucky that your AzAmazing Evening is being changed back to an onshore experience. I'm sailing Pursuit Sept. 8, our AzAmazing evening is Sept. 12 while in Kotor from 8:00am to 10:00pm. We are the only ship scheduled in Kotor that day but will not dock, we have to tender. So our evening has to be on the ship. I'm quite disappointed. Having to tender in to a port where the ship is there late into the evening makes it difficult to spend time on land after dinner, to take a walk. Having been to Kotor twice before and always docked, I can't understand the reason why Pursuit isn't docking. I know there's plenty of space for a ship this size.

My Croatia Intensive cruise on Pursuit is coming up soon, departing Fusina on September 8. I received an email yesterday informing us that the Azamazing evening in Kotor is now being held onboard.If the onshore event is coming back it's not for my cruise. I'm very disappointed, especially since we'll be docked in Kotor and could have walked into the town for a performance. I was looking forward to the event onshore as something special that no other cruise line does. . Now it's just another performance on the ship in a small venue with bad sightlines.

Tony, I am on a Croatia intensive cruise leaving from Fusina Sept. 8 for 9 nights. I am interested in what you did at the ports you stopped at. The only ports I have excursions lined up for are Zadar and Sibenik. Thanks in advance for the info you provide.

On my upcoming Azamara cruise I have the Experience More Package which includes the premium Beverage Package. I enjoy craft and specialty cocktails that cruise lines have. Is there a separate cocktail menu that has the drinks I can order within the premium beverage package? The details on the Azamara web site just show the brands of liquor available but not the actual cocktails.

Since the OBC won't show up before I board I run the risk of the shore ex or dining plans I want to use it on being sold out or full? Since it is not refundable I don't want to make a donation to Azamara. I already have the Experience More package from the TA so there is nothing else I want to spend the $250 on. Other cruise lines I sail with put the TA OBC in your account as soon as final payment is made, Oceania and Windstar do this.

I am sailing on Pursuit Sept. 8, 2024. I made the final payment April 30. I am to receive $250 OBC from my TA for the cruise. When will the OBC show in my account? I'd like to book some shore excursions and make specialty dinner reservations with the OBC. Should I have my TA contact AZ to get the OBC added or will Azamara get around to it soon?

I figured it out. The Azamazing evening for my sailing is in Kotor, Montnegro. I signed up. I used the included $300 excursion credit for Krka National Park from Sibenik. I have $22 left of that credit and another $250 OBC from my TA. I'll likely use it for dining as none of the excursions interest me, plus they are very expensive compared to DIY.

Where on our reservation do we sign up for the Azamazing Evening as a shore excursion? I'm on Pursuit Sept. 8 Croatia Intensive. How do we know what port will have this event? On my reservation there is no place to book any shore excursions online. Do I need to call it in?

I don't think Oceania does charters very often. When they do, they give plenty of notice. I can bet that this cancellation is due to the Olympics using the ship as a luxury hotel for the 2 weeks the surfing event is going on. They have already arranged for one ship to serve as a floating hotel. https://cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/2023/08/cruise-ship-to-serve-as-floating-hotel-during-2024-olympics/

Have you quietly asked any fellow passengers if they have some prescription pain meds they could give you until you get to Marseilles and a doctor? I always travel with a few left over as a just in case situation arises. I would give them to you if you asked me. Since you are a nurse, you know what you are doing.
