    Collecting Final Payment is your Travel Agents job and part of what they do to earn their commission . 100% TA's error.

    "Some of the reasons that we didn't love our last cruise: the crowds, long waits to embark, and a fair number of pushy/rude passengers". That has not gotten better and a bit worse. However choosing one of the Older, Smaller ships on any of the mass market cruise lines will help you discover cruising again in early December.

    Port fees and taxs for him will be refunded to original form of payment.

    What ship can be more "Traditional" than Cunard's QM2 , the only Liner still sailing . Has a lot of the Formailty of the past if that is what you wish.

    Have a Good TA help you decide and set up a group for you to get all the benefits of your own group as well as taking over answering questions and chasing down the collection of deposits and Final Payments. Costs you nothing.

    Best to resolve your concerns Onboard before speculating here.

    Won on our 1st RCCL (Royal Caribbean Cruise Line) Sun Viking cruise in 1984 for participating in the showroom show . On that tiny 17,000 ton ship the cruise director incorporated guests in most entertainment. Nice 7 night 1 way itinerary Barbados to Miami and vice/versa. I can’t imagine ever giving out ash trays now a days 😉

    Great suggestion here . Have all the Gala Nights that you wish to have .

    We chose MTD on our Brilliance cruise. Since we generly show up when we are hungry appox the same time every night, they directed us to the same table each night. This has happened before on other RCI cruises as well as on Princess who invented Anytime Dining.

    That is a good point , but onboard activities are subdued while in port. vs a Sea day.

    So , did the OP get the Final Payment done in time ?
  12. MCC retired
    Nassau is a wasted port stop . Rather have the Sea day and Labadee .

    Your TA will receive the same commission % as they would have by booking it for you.

    Agree with the ice cream also. I usually go for one of the various other desserts but those 3 scops after ever dinner won out most nights.

    We got took! Purchased an 8 day pass onboard for our May TA for $199 p/p.

    Had to ask for our Diamond pins at the purser.

    I recall it was only mini suite cat MA and MB that are the Reserve Class Dining.

    Most memorable shore tour that we have ever done . Ship's Tour , 11 hours , included stops at Pont-du-Hoc , American Cemetary , a Museum , a walk on Omah Beach , French luncheon and talks along the way.
  19. MCC retired
    Yes

    Ballroom Dancing for an hour or 2 then open dancing beyond that , may allow more to experience the Queens Room . What an Idea !

    Could be that Cunard got bumped when newcomer MSC needed Brooklyn for so many more homeport sailings . More sailings = more $$$ for the facility?
  22. MCC retired
    Was always and still is Bermuda

    Although I have never seen a sign like that on over 100 cruises, I have seen a seating shortage on some ships on occasion. At times bad shore tours, weather , card games , readers and those reserving table before selecting their food can take tables out of rotation?
  24. MCC retired
    My guess would be Priority to the ship that Home Ports with weekly sailings vs a ship that ports less frequently ?

    The 7 night Independence Day cruise now departs on June 29 with a overnight added in Halifax.
