I was in an obstructed view cabin once on a Sydney to Auckland trip. It was shockingly small; even the bathroom was smaller than the normal cabins. In addition to the lifeboat outside the window, they seem to need to light up the lifeboats, and the light made it through the alleged room darkening curtains.. They had to cover my window up with cardboard at night. In addition, there was a lot of noise generated from the lifeboat - possibly wind making it move about. A day after disembarkation I flew to Sydney and was on a Seabourn cruise from Sydney to Bali. My bathroom on Seabourn was larger than my cabin on Azamara. It took me several years to return to Azamara.

I think your TA could request some extra OBC or some other compensatory good will gesture. I am fairly sure that is what has happened to me in similar situations. (which seem to happen quite frequently)

I remember when Sycamore purchased Azamara this board expressed hope that these bogus sales would come to an end. I am surprised to be reading of the same old tactics.

If you want something a little different, try Villa Santa Teresa which is up in the hills in a nice residential neighborhood with cool older mansions and some interesting small boutique retail shops, and nice restaurants. The views are amazing.

Gotcha, Phil. I was going from the port.

I used Welcome Pickups 3 x on my recent trip and have only good things to say about them. I do believe OP was quoted a less expensive price than Welcome Pickups. Regardless, it is definitely a good idea to have a pickup. When I was in Athens airport a couple of weeks ago there was a very long line for cabs.

Thanks all who replied. I did send an e-mail to the azamara upgrade .com address and have not received a reply. I did clear my cache. My cruise is on June 29.

Anyone have advice for this issue? My TA, and her agency's manager have contacted Azamara, and Azamara "managment" say that I am eligible for an upgrade, according to all of the parameters of the program. They say to get this by going to the upgrade form and filling it out. I have done this at least 50 times, and repeatedly get a note saying I'm not available at this time. Anyone have similar problems or know how to trouble shoot? I am on a B2B and upgrades on the following cruise are readily available although it has more booked cabins than the one that I am trying to upgrade, which has literally dozens of cabins available. Thanks for any help!

I had a great haircut and blow dry when on board Quest in December. (I have long hair) Believe the cost was around $90 and because I'm discoverer the gratuity was a wash with my discount. no pun intended.

I received an upgrade offer for a July 10 cruise in on April 2. For some reason, I don't seem to be eligible for an upgrade on June 29 cruise despite it appearing that there are dozens of empty cabins.

I hope they also offer some compensation to the crew!

Thank you!

Is there a well illustrated deck plan available? I was unable to find one a few months ago. If so, would someone please post a link? thanks!
