I know this is by no means even close to a scientific poll but no one on here seems to care about this new "order what you want, when you want and get it delivered" feature so why not just eliminate that and reinstate the AIBP , which people DO care about.

 

 

 

Is that too simple a solution? :confused::eek:

That is what I care about. I like the ability to try different things and not worry about the bill at the end of the day.

The reason we booked our cruise was to give the Ocean Medallion a try, however we won't do it without the AIBP. I have confidence they will get it figured out.

So happy to have found this thread. Booked on June 18 Amsterdam to Basil. Have cruised many ocean cruises, but this will be my first river cruise on Avalon Felicity. I am a solo cruiser and this type of cruise sounds quite different than what I'm used to but I am quite social and enjoy experiencing new adventures. Anyone else on this one?

I will be on the Ruby April 1-14. I could pick you up one.

Nice to see your review of AMA. They offer some solo options and rooms. That intrigues me. Many of the lines offer 2 for 1 fares which does me no good. Thanks for sharing.

As stated in a previous message, we were told you could purchase up to 30 days after returning from a cruise. We were able to purchase one time so when we tried to do it another time they said we couldn't do it because it was past the 30-day mark.

Thanks for the great tip. Booked mine today. Missed out on my last cruise cause they were all booked up.

Would have been nice to know that there was an identified problem rather than being told it was our iPads that had the problem. Happy it's fixed though. Nice to be able to access the personalizer.

Favorite cruise. Enjoy. Good to do research to figure out how this cruising thing works, but good attitude, going with the flow, and being treated like a princess (or prince) will make it a wonderful experience. Worst part is when it's over and you have to return to reality.

You can eat anywhere you like, the entire atrium is available, or you can get it to go and take it to your room. I've had many mcmuffins. Like the protein option.

One week without access on my iPad. My droid phone works so I coule finally check on my account for upcoming trip today. This is not right.

My iPad has all the updates available, and it's an iPad 4. I tried Google as well. No luck.

It's been nearly a week of not being able to access Princess website to update cruise info. Finally called them today and was told that it appears to be an iPad issue where you can only access the website using chrome not safari. I finally tried my antiquated Windows computer and it worked fine when I tried that. I told him I wasn't too happy about the solution offered and he suggested I contact customer relations.

Good for you. Take a break and come back rejuvenated.

Magnets for holding tickets and notes on the wall, and magnetic door decorations for fun!

Since you've only done one, you may not have the answer. What are the names of the newer ships? Are the drinks pricey?

If you take a traditional cruise ship all the way to the North Cape (few actually include this in their "fjord" cruises) it is very likely that you will be far off-shore between the major ports they visit, perhaps only Tromso and Trondheim in the far north, for example. They will have longer port stays, but on Hurtigruten you will have many more ports, and travel on more protected waters, between islands, and fjords, between these ports. Of course, as above, if you have to have bingo, production shows, art actions, etc. on a cruise, like dressing up for dinner, or need to eat 24/7, and are not happy with the glorious scenery alone to entertain you, you will probably be happier on a traditional cruise ship.

Don't need bingo, production shows, art auctions, or dressing for dinner. Guess I was more interested in the food options, and options in ports for checking out the area. Also wondered about the crew. Are they locals. What kind of service is offered? I've read there are 3 meals, two buffets and sit down dinners. Does this sound right?

Interested to know what you think about the differences between taking the ocean cruise and the Hurtigruten for this area. Preference?

Attended a AAA cruise show yesterday. Asked many different cruise lines about solo fares. Sounds like they are few and far between. However AMA Waterways offers solo cruising and doesn't increase their fares. Has anyone tried them?

My first was on the Regal as well. Wonderful crew and they took very good care of me. Enjoy!

I found myself traveling solo for the first time last fall with one do notice. My friends that I was traveling with had to go home for family emergency.i am a pretty independent person but my husband had passed away two months before and we had done 17 cruises together. I knew I could do it, but had to figure out how I was going to do it. I Signed up for traditional dining thinking I didn't want to eat alone and there were two other ladies at my table traveling alone. I signed up for some shore excursions at the last minute and met some nice folks on the excursions. I ate breakfast a few times in the main dining room and shared my table. All in all I met some very nice people. The crew was great and I really was comfortable traveling alone. Thinking of doing a Mexico cruise alone this spring but it's dang expensive to travel solo if you want a balcony cabin. Go for it!

Did it back to back this year starting September 24. Really enjoyed both weeks. Would do it again if I had the chance.

Thanks everyone.

 

 

 

But how to get a ticket for the tendering boat? Any tips?

We lined up as early as possible. It was my bucket list and. Was not going to miss out! My cruise buddies were not as excited about this as I was but they followed my passion.
