We came back from our Greece & Croatia cruise yesterday. We didn't see any refugee boats or people trying to reach the coasts by swimming.
We did a bridge tour and I asked about the ship's handling about refugee boats. They told us that this season they didn't see any refugee boats, last season they did twice. They assisted the refugees from the overturn boat and brought them to the next port, where the authorities were informed in advance.

Only 8 days until our first cruise in a suite. :D
-
Thank you very much!
Ok, stick to the plan and ask for some soy milk on the side. ;)
-
Oh that's a pity. :( But maybe I can ask the Concierge to keep some soy milk available?
Does the coffee machine have the milk inside and makes the special coffee by pushing a button? Or does a waiter steam the milk and prepare the coffee like a barista at Starbucks?
-
We're in a Grand Suite on the Vision OTS in a few weeks and I'm wondering about the coffee machine in the Concierge Lounge. I have a dairy intolerance and usually drink my coffee with almond or soy milk. I know I can get my soy latte from Cafe Latte-tudes, but is it available in the Concierge Lounge, too? It would be very nice to start the day with a soy latte oder soy cappuccino in the Concierge Lounge. :)

We've been to Ephesus during our Med Cruise in 2011 and loved it. Thinking about coming back, with a better camera ;), we'll decide spontaneously.
Earbuds... It's been almost 20 years since English lessons... :cool:
-
Ah "earplugs", ok thank you, I don't know it's the same word for those things on the iPod. ;)
Yes, we're from Germany and we use a German travel agent. Funny, that you made the same experience.
We're sailing out from Venice, going to Kings's Landing, Kusadasi (other cruise lines removed Turkey from the itinerary, RCI doesn't), Santorini and Katakolon. Very nice ports. :)

Yes, that's the only issue for DH. He is a very light sleeper. But he always uses "ohropax" (don't know the english name :confused: ), at home, at vacation, in the plane/train etc. The Ground Suite ist placed under the Windjammer Café, one of the staterooms in the middle.
-
Yes that's right, we've booked a balcony gty at the end of march for our upcoming cruise at the end of may. Stateroom was assigned the day we've booked (D1, deck 7). We're platinum C&A members, cruised 6 times with RCI, so no upper tier C&A member. Our travel agent said it's because of our C&A status, but come on, with 47 completed cruise points I don't believe it. But no matter what, we're very happy and excited and looking forward to our first cruise in a suite. :)
Thank you all. :)
-
Thank you. :)
Ah... I didn't have a look on deck 11. So nice, I think we will enjoy the Concierce Club. We love the Viking Crown lounge and it's nearby. :)
Cruise documents still have the old stateroom number written, I called our TA to clarify and to send us our new documents incl. new luggage tags.
-
Thank you very much. I'm super excited, can't think about sleeping (it's 11 p.m. here ;) ).
Checked out there is no Concierce Club on the Vision. Are we allowed to join the Diamonds Lounge instead?
-
Hello,
we've booked a balcony guarantee stateroom for our med cruise on the Vision OTS, stateroom was assigned some weeks ago on deck 7 (D1). Very nice.
Now I just wanted to check-in online, having a look into the booking dashboard.
:eek: :eek:
Stateroom number has changed into Grand Suite on deck 8.
:eek: :eek:
We've never ever got upgrades. We've never cruised in a Grand Suite before... interior, outside, balcony... but never a suite.
What does it mean? Any amenities and services we don't think about, beside a lot of more space? What about gratuities?
Tell me everything about suite life on a cruise ship please. :D
Many greetings from Cachecruiser :)

Nice review. :) We'll cruise on the Vision OTS in 4 weeks. Can't wait, your pictures are getting me more excited.
Do you have a picture of the menu from Cafe Latte-tudes and Ben&Jerry's? Do they offer the new vegan ice cream flavors in Ben&Jerry's? Do they offer soy milk for the coffee? Thank you.
-
Any ideas?! :)
-
Hello,
I have the same question. Just booked a cruise on the Vision OTS and got assigned stateroom 7120. Any pictures oder reviews would be nice.
Thanks in advance. :)
-
I've asked the customer service from resort for a day about it. They say, for the Freedom OTS, the shuttle departs at 10:45 am and picks one up at the resort at 5 pm. Hope this helps. :)
-
Ok thank you, that help me with the starting time. I hope somebody will remember how long one can stay at the resort while cruising on the Freedom OTS.
-
We will be in Falmouth on the Freedom OTS from 10 pm - 7 pm. Does anybody know by what time one is picked up and returned to the port by booking through Resort for a day?
-
There is no geocache within the gated area in Falmouth. This would be against the guidelines of Groundspeak. We tried to publish an event in Coco Cay but the reviewer didn't allowed this. Because this is an exclusive, private area by the cruise line and only accessible to cruise ship passengers, so others couldn't attend. He said we have to find a spot not on a private island nor on restricted cruise docks that is accessible to all geocachers (Local geocachers, geocachers arriving by plane, etc.) not just cruisers. In my understanding this applies to Falmouth too.
-
Does anybody have any new experiences to share? Thanks. :)
-
We're cruising in November and are considering this excursion. Does anybody have any experiences to share? Thanks.
-
Thanks for the review. :)
What is the name and booking number of this RCI excursion? How long does it take? Is the ferry service going all day, or is there a certain fixed time to be at the ferry quay to return?
-
Thank you. I'll tell our tour provider to pick us up at International pier.
-
Ok thank you. I hope "should be" means "it is". ;)

Just came back from our Vision OTS cruise. Mangesh Jambhulkar (MJ) is back from his vacation in the Concierge Lounge, Patricia Dcosta is in the Diamond Lounge now.
