Does anyone recommend  a restaurant near the port of las palmas that we could walk to from the ship? Thank you

Soon a port new to us will be Las Palmas, Canary Island. Plan on having a special 80th birthday meal while in port.

Please recommend a restaurant near docking area. Is it possible to walk or will we need to get transportation.

Thank you for anu suggestions.

I'm assuming you're asking about Barcelona. We stayed at the Le Meridien. See post #35 for pics and more info.

 

From the airport to the hotel, we used Welcome Pickups. They have an app to pre-book. Driver was waiting outside baggage claim with a name sign, and his van was a surprisingly short distance away. 

 

To the port from the hotel, we had the hotel get us a taxi. Next time I'll pre-book welcome pickups again for a van. It took a bit for the hotel to get a taxi big enough to fit all our bags.

Thanks for the information

Hello everyone, and welcome to another one of my "Live" reports.

This time it's the brand-new Sun Princess, sailing on a 10-day voyage from Barcelona to Rome. Our ports include Mallorca, Sicily, Athens, Kusadasi Turkey, Santorini (maybe), and Naples.

 

We just arrived in Barcelona after an overnight flight YYZ-EWR-BCN. We'll be seeing some of Barcelona including the Sagrada Familia before boarding tomorrow.

 

Stay tuned for lots of photos and videos of the new ship. Hopefully they'll have the entertainment venues open this cruise.

 

Steve.

Wondering what hotel you stayed at and what transportation you used 

Thanks

Help last time we booked a transfer from Heathrow terminal 3 was a bad experience.  If you are pleased with a company, you have used, please share your experience.  Our driver did not meet us in terminal.  Noticed while waiting over an hour to connect with driver other companies had reps just out of security area with signage.   We are 4 adults traveling together. Thank you

How do I change my flight on line? how do I get to the page to change it or just price another flight? When I try something it says I already have a flight. Do I have to talk to someone at carnival tin order a new flight?

Thank you for any input

Is it easy to get a taxi at Barcelona Airport and cost or is it better to hire a private car?

Sure, just go to the different airlines websites and see what they offer.

Is air cheaper on the carnival site? and can I choose my flight?

Thank You 

Is there a way I can check available air for a cruise before I book a cruise?

can i cancel my cruise and get my deposit back if I cancel before the due date?

Does the carnival Glory have production shows on the trans Atlantic cruises?

Does the Glory have self laundry rooms?

If I cancel cruise before due date will I get all money back Evan if I payed for airfare? 

How long will it take to get from domestic to international on united at Bush international Airport 

First I have heard of this surprise call!!  Is it only regarding certain ships?  Is it tied to passengers who are on casino offers?

Thanks for info

Recently I heard but wonder if there is anyone that can confirm the following?

That Elite passengers or anyone having the benefit of free laundry service can if thy choose go to customer services and get tokens to use in laundromat to do their own clothes.  If so can passengers use both options?  Items not willing to have shrunk do their own.  And send other items out at no charge.  Sounds good maybe too good to be true.

Thanks,

Does anyone know how long it takes to get through  customs in Athens  coming from  the US? 

Thanks
