Egypt Post 10/29/11 Cruise

[vakamalua]

We are booked on the Istanbul-Safaga 10/29/11 cruise (first on Regent). We are also booked on the included 3-day post-cruise stay in Egypt.

 

When I try to bring up the details for the post-cruise on the Regent website link (below), nothing comes up. I emailed Regent a week ago asking to be forwarded the details since their link doesn't work but never heard from them. I guess I will contact my TA but was just wondering if anyone else has been able to access the details (also, is ignoring emails is SOP for Regent?).

Not sure I understand the problem unless your computer has issues downloading direct links to PDF files. The link you provided opened a two-page PDF document explaining the itinerary. The "meat" of the document for the one you (and we) are on is...

As to the ? of Regent responding to emails, I have given up. I have emailed them on at least 2 occasions, and they have never responded. The last time was over 2 weeks ago, and I have yet to hear from them.

 

I'm glad the on-board experience far exceeds their land-based communication!:)

Why not have your TA do all this research for you?

Why not have your TA do all this research for you?

 

While that is a good idea and will probably get an answer sooner, why does regent have a way to send messages directly to themselves and then fail to respond. Know regent is trying to make their communications more user friendly and responsive to their customers but, appears at this point that any improvement is very slow in coming. Still waiting for any response, apology, or explanation for the debacle in Beijing a month ago.

 

Hope we hear somethng this year to resolve the issues for about 350 of us.
