Grand Turk, just walking off the ship onto the beach, swimming in the sea with your ship in the background - just perfect. We were there on the Noordam.

Interesting, thanks

On our last celeb cruise we had a number of Smithsonian speakers relating to the ports we visited in the med. They were excellent and spoke to packed houses. A real shame to see them go.

She looks lovely, I can't wait. Hopefully some new and exciting things will be on board...

That's a great pic!

Go for short, with one or two long sleeved just in case....

It cost us £14.50 to go from the cruise port to the airport in June this year.

Loved the Solstice, can't wait to go another S-Class.....

It does depend on what you want.

We've done a few different lines over the years. P&O we have sailed with twice. The food isn't as great as others, but still very good. Think of direct flights, transfer to the ship from the airport, everything in GBP, etc.

If you get a good deal it often makes up for the other things that other lines do better.

Any cruise is better than no cruise....

We can afford to cruise due to Getaway fares, so we are totally up for them. Pay the price you are happy with, if you can cruise for less then go for it. Thankfully our circumstances allow us to book with a month or twos notice. So we are fans of the current pricing policy.

The coffee in the main dining room on the Solstice, it was the worst coffee I have ever tasted.

Way too many, not even booked yet!!

Have been in Barca twice pre-cruise overnight, staying in hotel and touring the city. Never had any problems. Left valuables in the safe in the hotel safe. Kept camera in hand at all time, stayed vigilant and came back to the hotel in the evening about 8pm ish and had a quiet drink and an early bed. Nice relaxed start to the cruise.
