  1. It sounds a nightmare. I hope you both recover soon and get home safely, and can recoup your unplanned expenditure,

    How can you make a list of the itineraries when the website isn't showing them all? Also, if you've pre-registered, you will have already have the same emailed link as we all have had today?

    Try clicking the individual cruises ..... I hope you do better than me! (See above)

    For the ones I'm looking at, there's not a lot of point. Only one cruise that I've selected so far takes me to the 2025 page; the rest take me to the generic 2024 search page. Having worked in IT for many years before retirement, I cannot believe this incompetence.

    There isn't really an e-brochure, unless I'm missing something? I seem to have to click on each cruise that I could be interested in to see its detail. To compare any, it looks as if I'm going to have to take screenshots and paste them into a document. What a palaver! If anyone's found a solution, please tell me.
  6. We also got the free Saga shuttle to Porto. A scenic ride and very efficient.
  7. I advise that, if you want to do the Flam railway trip, book it yourself. We did it through Saga and were crammed into carriages like sardines, and this was when Covid was still an issue. Our guide shouted at those who tried to board an empty carriage. She lied to everyone, saying that it didn't matter which side of the train we sat because it turns round at the top. It doesn't! We were NOT allowed off the train at Myrdal, despite the excursion details saying we would be. People we sat near at dinner that eveing had enjoyed a leisurely trip by going it alone.
  8. I had the bed under the corner cupboard. I'm only 5 feet tall so no problem at all for me. Not sure what you mean by extra storage unit. Each bed has pull out drawers underneath so when pushed together, one set is just inaccessible.
  9. We've had a cabin with a 3rd bunk, which was annoying so we ensured we didn't book it again. Next time we did have a cabin with the corner cupboard. Neither of us can remember it being a problem. However we did have the beds as 2 singles because it provides extra drawer space. Photos of both cabins attached.

    Maybe they're waiting to see which ports are actually going to allow cruise ships to dock at all.
  11. I was just going to say the same. Maybe we were on the same cruise (11 Sept, 5 nights).
  12. I'm not sure why you want to use the App when, what you appear to want to access is available via MySaga or Manage My Booking. You don't need the App to access these. Go directly to it/them via your browser. You'll just need to set up a simple login ID and password. If I'm missing something ...??
  13. We've never had an issue on Royal Clipper with ciggie smoke either. We're both non-smokers.
  14. What is the App for? I wasn't aware of one either, but do use MySaga on my laptop.
  15. What do you mean by the "balcony has openings on both sides"?
  16. If the lunch buffet has finished (around 3.30-4pm, I think), there are snacks in "The Living Room" and also room service. Dinner service starts at 6.30, but you'll be assigned a restaurant and dining time on the first evening. If worst comes to the worst, I think you can speak to the Maitre'D and get it changed. Hopefully you'll be fine.
  17. When Saga let you know the pickup time, there's not really an option to negotiate a different time. Remember that, logistically, they're moving about 960 persons off the ship and the same number on again. However, let us know how you get on with your request, as our pickups seem to be getting later?
  18. I had to look up "Anna Navarro" but could only find an "Ana Navarro" who seemed to match your comments. Is that the one? Clearly I've never heard of her. I don't do Insta and so won't be watching anyhow. Azamara seems a shambles and I'm ignoring all offers until there's positive news on here. Such a pity as the itineraries are so tempting. Ah, I've just seen that Ana Navarro is on "The View" prog. Question answered,
  19. We were about 3.25 hours away from Dover and were picked up on Monday at 11am.
  20. Hi Kinniegirl, Saga will inform you of your pickup time a couple of weeks before your cruise. If you have booked direct with Saga, it will possibly appear on "MySaga" before you receive the documents via the post. Unfortunately, you cannot choose your own time. I hope that helps.
  21. The face cloths/flannels are replaced twice daily! Cabin service is amazing.
  22. We're on Spirit of Adventure now and are using WhatsApp daily. Sometimes it's a bit slow, but it's not blocked.
  23. Unfortunately TUI Flightextras show it as "full" for the date we want. I tried Flightextras via another travel company too, in case it is a glitch, but it returned the same message. MoBay airport's website and both TripAdvisor and Viator show availability.
  24. Do you have a preference between Tripadvisor and VIATOR? I was looking at booking direct with the airport because it seems to be a bit cheaper. Have you done it that way at all? I am a bit wary of the "reserve now and pay later" options on Tripadvisor and VIATOR. Is that the way you do it? If so, it must work?
