  1. Well I’m onboard Grandeur in May. Can’t wait.
  2. oh my goodness…the one and only Ho Hum????
  3. I’ve boarded many ships in BCN and got a taxi every time. The taxis all know once you tell them which ship you’re embarking asks the security at the port entrance and they will take you straight to the terminal..just have your travel docs.
  4. completely correct. It’s actually very well organised
  5. Hotel Miramar..would be my go to hotel in Barcelona…stayed maybe 10 times and 5 min taxi ride to the port.
  6. I just arrange my own flights, hotel, transfers etc and use the cruise only fare credit and fly in 2-3 days in advance…same on return..
  7. No..Two adults, 2 extra large suitcases, two medium and a couple of carry on..
  8. I used Rome-airport.net. €130 was waiting bang on time in an E class merc straight to FCO …HOWEVER, think the driver thought he was on a F1 racetrack..
  9. 😂😂😂..no, they embarked in Burnie and disembarked in Hobart.
  10. There’s a tram stop right outside the port stopping in centre of Melbourne..
  11. I had guests on overnight..boarded at 11am in one port and disembarked 4pm next day in the next port. Was on the Spirit in Tasmania…
  12. We did this on Crystal but did the seats etc independently..I’ll try to find the info and get back.
  13. Wouldn’t even bother. The whole SA visa website is dreadful.. I just gave up and stayed onboard….and don’t think I missed much judging by the comments of fellow passengers who did go ashore or did tours.
  14. I eventually received my final cruise docs on Monday, fly out tomorrow ..
  15. I was on this cruise too and the NYE Sydney harbour catamarans…I enjoyed the fireworks and well, it was an experience 😂😂..looking after a crew members mother who had a few toots…but the queues to get back onboard through the port terminal must have easily taken over an hour ..think I got back onboard about 1.45am. Oh well we laugh about it now..
  16. My email from SS about change of itinerary went straight to my junk folder for some reason. Unusual as they normally arrive straight into my inbox..
  17. I booked a last minute vista suite for a cruise August just past..I booked cruise only and vista guarantee was the only suites available. I was happy enough with the price and location as it was only for 7 days…A week before departure I logged onto MySilversea to reserve restaurants and noticed I was allocated 814 veranda
