  1. I second the opinion to split up Vatican and Colosseum.  Vatican tickets go on sale 60 days prior and sell out in less than an hour.  Colosseum tickets go on sale 30 days prior and sell out just as fast.  We have used Romeinlimo for transportation every time we visit Rome and they are superb.  We will be using them on our visit in September.  You didn't say when you will be visiting Rome, so I hope you have at least 60 days to go.  Romeinlimo has also arranged a city tour for us before heading to the port, visiting Trevi Fountain, Spanish steps, and other spots.  Romeinlimo will arrange for a guide but they do not purchase entrance tickets.  I was referred to a business partner who procures tickets.  I intend to use her services and not have to fret over missing the sales.  

  2. We are new to Princess.  Sailed Celebrity and Royal Caribbean for many years.  Can someone simply explain the dining room scenario?  Is there old time classical cruise dining with same table and waiter and table mates each evening where you just walk in to the dining room and go to your table? If there is no classical dining, must we make a reservation each evening?  

  3. I have been through several travel agents, some through recommendations, some just through a random google search.  Some were gems, a few were duds.  One absolutely made a mess and thank goodness I am now with a fabulous agent who I have known for 30 years.  I have always booked through a travel agent over my 30 year cruise history.  

  4. Thanks for the help.  Tried under my login, and under linked reservation login, and said "only original person who booked can cancel."  Had to click on the link in the confirmation email to get to the correct login.  I only have one login!!!  After I got there it was easy peasy following the instructions above.  Thanks very much.

  5. I would never dream of booking a cruise without also booking outside travel insurance.  If I had to cancel and a nonrefundable deposit was involved, travel insurance claim is prudent.  

     

    While the above takes care of the loss out of my pocketbook, it still galls me that Celebrity is keeping my money and adding to their pocketbook.

  6. We have used Ocean Explorers the two times we dove at St. Maarten.  Wonderful crew and very attentive and safe.  They picked us up at the designated place for private transportation and returned us afterward.  You have to walk all the way through to the other end of the shopping area, 10-15 minutes.  Fabulous experiences.
