hi jo am the next to ask lol, any cruises for 18th june onwards for 2 people that visits rome also a two week cruise for the same date. also do u if the prices have gone up much from last years ?

[millies]

Hi Arsenal4eva

 

Cruises on 23rd June - Moorish Delights B2B with Treasures of the Med which visits Rome - otherwise a week sails on 16th June for Teasures of the Med - Sardinia - Naples - Rome - Villefranche and Palamos - sailing from Palma - cost for one week £1059 - Two weeks £1759

 

I think the prices have increased from last year but I didnt book from the brochure so am hoping the price will be cheaper when booking over the Net? Also the AI package is now included on Summer 2012 sailings so I guess we are paying for the privilege of this :confused:

excellent news! thank you :D

[Julessmiles]

Jo

 

Thanks for all this info - you are great (bet you wish you hadn't told everyone you had the brochure now:D!)

 

The Destiny Itinerary looks good - we did the Spirit on similar itinerary last year and would be tempted to do again particularly as the Greek bit is very different but I'm not so sure about the Destiny - my parents were on her recently and said she needs a good refurbishment now and we so love the Celebration & Spirit!!

 

I do think the prices have increased somewhat - child prices are up by £50 each but I suppose fuel costs have increased and if they are offering free AI upgrade - hope the flight supplements haven't gone up by much!!

 

Where have you chosen to go, Jo?!

 

Many thanks for all this.

Hi Jules

 

I really dont mind doing this! Work at a school and so am on holiday and have nothing better to do! (Shhh! dont tell the OH!)

 

I am doing the Adriatic Explorer and Pearls of the Aegean this summer on the Spirit - thinking of Moorish Delights and Treasures of the Med for next year - have done both these before but want to go back to Naples again. Going to give the Dream a go!

 

The Destiny is smaller - the cabins are "compact" - we had cabin 3014 which had the beds converted to double - would hate to sleep in the usual L-shape - which made it better - although I enjoyed the cruise and the ship I do prefer the Spirit - on saying that I would go on the Destiny again if it came to it.

 

Where you thinking of next?

Lucky you going on the Spirit this summer - I absolutely loved that itinerary! I think we will probably end up doing the Celebration in 2012 - the itinerary you have confirmed looks good & I would love to do Istanbul; I like the fact they are doing 2 days there next year but a shame they are not doing Bodrum - we love the Bodrum Penninsula and would have hopped on a Dolmus to our favourite spot that we know!!

 

My parents did say the Destiny had smaller cabins and as there are 4 of us sharing (2 adults, 2 teens!), the Spirit/Celebration 4 berths are an ideal size with plenty of storage space! They did say the sundeck & inside lounge areas were better on the Destiny though.

 

Could I ask you one small (last, hopefully for you) favour being as you have been so helpful please??!! Do they fly to Marmaris from Exeter/Bristol or Cardiff? If so, which airport has the earliest departure time leaving the UK ??!!!

 

Thank you SO much - just wish I could have got my hand on a brochure!!!
