  1. Weird, indeed. Just wondering if that Regent gets push back that they “amend” policies to sell the suite? Been to Kapalua 9 times….love Maui. You live in Paradise.
  2. We ensured we got the $100/person cancellation fee in writing......had we not, we would have simply let the hold expire. Thanks.
  3. We have had a hold on a GS on a Grandeur cruise for July 22, 2024 that we had to decide on today. “Let’s do it” we said. Our TA came back and said our $6.5K deposit was, per Regent, non-refundable. We mentioned something about a “place where the sun doesn’t shine” and took the hold off the suite/cruise. Five minutes later, our TA calls and says “Regent have gone back to their original cancellation policy” which means if we cancel up til March 2024, we lose only $100/person. Regent….losing the customer centric appeal? Our last 2 Splendor cruises were also in GS’s and we never encountered this before. Hopefully this will be a great cruise….??
  4. We have a hold on Grandeur, July 22, 2024. Like the itinerary and the spend time in Rome and area post cruise. We found Splendor TA end of March a bit boring…..a cancelled port, not so nice weather and fairly rough seas did not help.
  5. Hope you are feeling better. Are you on Grandeur next year?
  6. Good luck with your Doc visit. While on our recent Splendor TA I came down with a bad upper repository virus that even after drug regimens my breathing is still a bit labored even today. Coughed so bad onboard during the night(s) I believe I coughed up a toenail.
  7. Columbia??? Let's hope your luggage is not delivered to you by 6 DEA agents.....
  8. Originally from Montreal....but a life long Bruins fan. Still have good friends involved in the NHL....one is Conor Bedard's agent
  9. Ah....the joys of travel. That had to be an infuriating trip home. We always book our own airfare and take the credits. The Bride has Platinum status on Delta and when things go South, they do a great job of looking after us. Get yourself a nice Sunday morning Bloody Mary and just remember what a great cruise and anniversary you just had.
  10. Originally from Montreal....but a life long Bruins fan. Still have good friends involved in the NHL....one is Conor Bedard's agent.
  11. Good memory, Camillus112….lived in B’Ville for 12 years. Moved from Toronto and now enjoying the South in Savannah
  12. Lived in Syracuse for 12years…..Caz is a very nice place
  13. Don’t want to brag, but I once went 12 seconds with Ali. Well….actually only 2 seconds if you consider the referee counting 1-10.
  14. Z…..looks like it may be possible you and I could be fighting for the pool bar chair, 4th from left, on Grandeur next August??
  15. We stayed there for a Splendor cruise in March 2022…..definitely not the best hotel in that area. For our March 2023 Splendor TA we were assigned to the Intercontinental….a huge leap up from the AKA.
  16. Great pics. Irina is a terrific bartender and Meridian was our favorite lounge also. While the Bride visited the casino (often) I would sit at Meridian bar, keep Irina company, and sway to the music. Unfortunately, I did that also when the band was on break.
  17. Marko.....that's right.....not Max. He knew my drink(s) of choice and as soon as he saw me asked....."which one"? And like you, regardless of time.
  18. We were on this sailing with you and thought daily activities were average for the most part. We did a Cruise Critic sail away from Miami that was a terrific way to meet people. Weather and seas were not great.
  19. An improvement from our Splendor TA this past March/April
  20. Just know that the Delta gate at YUL is the farthest point in the airport. Long walk…..then lines and wait at Customs. We fly to Montreal often (originally from there) and I doubt I would ever do a transfer flight on Delta with only an hour forty to an AC flight in Montreal.
  21. Hockeyken. We're heading up top TO Friday for 4 nights. Originally from Montreal and lived in the Big Smoke for 18 years....lots of family and friends there still. With reference to "hockey"....bud of mine I grew up with in Verdun (Montreal) and have known since we were rugrats is Conor Bedard's agent....he will look good in a Hawks sweater.
  22. Great seat. Max was the bartender on that TA. Our suite was on Deck 10....a short crawl back from pool bar.
