Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I beg to differ on this point. We were in Argostoli in June this year whilst cruising on board Onward. Everything else you wrote summed up our experience of the day there.
  2. Did you book direct with Az and let them arrange your flights or did a TA book flights for you? It’s defiantly worth clarifying. I have had poor experiences when using both and now book my own flights. I agree with you re the bus journey to Ravenna, no comfort break as advised, (thankfully not required). Check in for a Suite was straightforward and we were onboard with in fifteen minutes from arrival at Ravenna.
  3. I Googled Le Union de Vignerons and got a link to Yapp.co.uk who are well recognised UK wine merchant. They are selling three of Le Union de Vignerons wines for £12.75 ($15) per bottle. This is what Yapp wines said “The Union des Vignerons Cave Co-opérative of Saint Pourçain is a benchmark example of a pioneering modern operation producing well-made inexpensive and reliable wines.” Having tried all the Az house wines (not all are made by Le Union de Vignerons) I think the description above nails it, they are well made and reliable, who cares if they are not expensive.
  4. Has Ruby returned to a bar onboard any of Azamara’s ships? Just curious as I’m onboard Quest in four weeks.
  5. I have over 40 cruises to my credit on nine different cruise lines, and I would have to say Oceania was the biggest disappointment despite the fact the fact they were the most hyped. The ships were dead at 10:30pm at night as everyone was wrapped up in bed.The crew were uninspiring,, but the biggest disappointment of all was the food. I found the food very dated, stuck in the 1970, and 80’s. Yes it was well cooked and well presented but when you have a consultant chef who is well in his 80’s the food just lacked imagination and flair cross the ship. I have been a regular Az cruise and cruised Az post Covid twice in the past 10 months and have found the food and the new menus to have what is almost a cutting edge. There are lots of ethnic touches and flavours filled with the spices and discoveries that Azamara is all about. I know not everyone is thrilled by the infusion of spice, but I think the new approach is clever and setting the mark for destination immersion brand.
