    Onward Miami Embarkation Questions

    in Azamara

    Posted 

    I have already read a lot about this topic, I find the 2 pm very late and not comfortable, other companies have long since
changed this back to 11 am. A lot of Azamara fans think this late period is great, I don't see any advantage. Is it possible 
to drop off your luggage in the morning? In Miami there is a shopping center nearby, 
depending on the location it is a short walk or an affordable Uber ride.

    Boarding For Lunch ?

    Why does this rule still exist? We have done some cruises since Covid with other lines, we were always on board around noon.

    What else is to be cleaned here, It has been proven that the transmission over surface surfaces is very unlikey

    Wine prices were between $7.00 and $9.50 per glass with beers up to $8. Draught Heineken at $5.50. Did not take picture of bar menu.  As for taking wine on-board, they allow 2 bottles per cabin at beginning of cruise only and really do check the bags at each port to ensure no liquor gets brought onboard.

    Thank You! This gives an idea ....

    Just got off the Wind Surf yesterday and can provide an update on drink package situation.  The packages changed 2 weeks ago and I find them to be of lower value than they used to be.  There are now only 2 packages instead of 3. Previously there were 3 priced at $32, $42 and $52 respectively. The first one included wine only for wines at less than $8.50/glass plus beer, the second one included wines by the glass under $11.50 plus beer and the third was all of the above plus all liquor (15% gratuity added to these prices).  There are now 2 packages with Topmast Discoveries priced at $49 including all wines offered by the glass, (33 in total but all priced at $9.50 or below so much less value) plus beer and the Captains Exclusive package which is the same as TopMast plus all liquor at $59 (plus 15% gratuities) There were 4 of us on this cruise with 3 on TopMast Discoveries and one on Captains Exclusive  This created some confusion on our bill throughout the cruise as liquor would get charged to our room although it was taken by our friend who was on the Captains package.  They refunded everything but it was just a hassle, but you can have one party on the package and the other one paying a la carte or on a different package.  Hope this helps

    Thank you for your report. That really helps. Did you maybe take a picture of the bar menu? I am very curious how the offers and the prices are.

    Just got off her on Saturday. We had a great trip there are a few things that will be taken care of on her next dry dock in a couple of months and she is scheduled for a long dry dock in 2020 when she will be stretched 100 ft. But I'd go back on her in a minute

       

    I am glad to hear that. We are on an ocean crossing in a month and have been very worried. Unfortunately, the reports were really shocking. How were the drinks prices? Was there a deck party?
