CanWeGoYet? Posted January 9, 2011 #26 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm looking for a Europe cruise for 2012, would love to cruise with Carnival as that's the line I'm most comfortable with. Actually had been looking for a transatlantic, or possibly british isles or baltic cruise. Not so hot on Mediterranean but I'd consider it. It would just mean making my way to London for a bit after the cruise & before flying home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bb2842 Posted January 9, 2011 #27 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Hi Pugs and Everyone, I'm interested in the Carnival Breeze. Would love to do the 2012 European itinerary. I sailed the Carnival Splendor in the Baltics and really enjoyed that cruise and ship. Bev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugs Posted January 9, 2011 Author #28 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Keeping an eye on this but I think it will be out of our budget... You never know Gary!!!! The price for Europe cruises is way down I know the air can be a bit pricey, but you can always use an air consolidater and get a good rate. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan on this Cruise and am very excited about it. Looks like it is a little less to fly into Barcelona the best I can tell. This will be a once in a live time for me and my hubby and our boys ( 20 and 30 at cruise time), after this one my adult sons are on their own for vacations!!!!:D!

hubofhockey Posted January 9, 2011 #31 Share Posted January 9, 2011 If we do the same plan and ports as Magic is doing this summer , that will be GREAT!!!!! Does anyone know any thing about the Spain port ??? I wounder why Carnival does that depat.port and no Rome for its new ships? :confused: Barcelona is a great city. Many cruise lines are using it as original embarcation and ending disembarcation ports. The port is convenient to the city (unlike Civitavecchia, which is an hour and a half away from Rome) and it's a great city as well. Also, it is generally cheaper to fly to Barcelona from the US than it is to Rome. The port might be easier for cruise lines as well. What I like about the Magic's itinerary is that Carnival is giving an extended day in Rome from 7 am to 10 pm. Good luck to all of you. There is nothing like a Med cruise and it's great that Carnival makes it affordable for everyone, including families. Can't wait to get on the Magic in Barcelona in 200 days.

Pugs Posted January 9, 2011 Author #32 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I know not anyone can really say yes to this until we know details, so just keep peeping and you will know as soon as I do, however we can chat and get to know each other. My name is Barbara and my Husband ( mr.pugs) is Joe. I have been a Group leader a time or two . On this cruise our sons John , 19 now is in his first year of college, our older son Joey is 29 and works in his father office. We live in sunny Tampa Florida Now tell me about you!!! We do have a lot of time to get to know each other and make a lot of plans, I have a few contacts in Italy, I have met a tour director that I will use while we visit Rome. I also have the name of a few in Barcelona. I think this should be a lot of fun.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugs Posted January 9, 2011 Author #35 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Looking forward to more info !! As soon as I get it you all will be the first to know... I am really excited about this and hope it will pan out to be a CC group cruise. If for some reason it does not become a CC grope cruise the thread will move to roll call and we can then do some Cruise planning. I do think it will be a CC group since I have been a group leader in the pass, it depends on if Carnival wants to do groups on a Europe cruise, I don't know why they wouldn't. We will see, I will keep you all posted, now lets do some cruise chatting!!!!:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Pugs, We might be interested in a cruise to Europe in 2012...However we have to make sure the Aunt/Uncle both like cruising first. LOL Me, My cuz, Aunt and Uncle are scheduled to do the Western Car on the Valor in March. Can't wait. Providing this all goes well and the price is right we just might be interested in the 2012 Cruise. We were throwing around a international trip for Vaca next year. And I LOVE Europe!

Pugs Posted January 9, 2011 Author #39 Share Posted January 9, 2011 If you would like to look at the ports visited , see the Carnival Magic for June or July 7 night and it will give you an idea. Pricing for this summer is not bad at all and if we can get a CC group that would be great, it is almost always a couple 100.00 less.:eek: And somtimes you get perks like OB credit... I can't wait.. :eek: Now to look at air, I know there are some good consolidates for international flights you just have to sruf the internet, I think Cruise Critic has some boards on that. Let me check them out ...:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugs Posted January 10, 2011 Author #47 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Looking at the ports that the Magic visits it looks like only one sailing included Venice and it was the May sailing , does anyone have an idea why?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logie Posted January 10, 2011 #49 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Hi Barb, Got the email this morning about the cruise-thanks. I may be interested. I have done Europe a few times (on Princess) and I am more than ready to go back. Depends on price, how many days and the itinerary. So keep me posted. This was a great group back on the Liberty. The only downfall to that cruise was all the kids running down the halls all night. :( I really liked the poker run that was fun!! The speciality dining was one of the best ever. We just did RCL for New Years and it was not good. Keep us posted!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
