PH8 Posted May 10, 2012 Author #1926 Share Posted May 10, 2012 No surprise that was coming :D . Anyway, do you know which ports its doing right after the repo? That's a B2B that might indeed be calling me. Thanks! St Croix St Martin Antigua St Lucia Barbados sea day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mabers Posted May 10, 2012 #1927 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yikes! Have read all the posts here because I am waiting for the repo Boston to Tampa Oct. '13, and I just have one question.....can someone tell me what the allure of San Juan is? Isn't it quite expensive to fly there? I have tried to avoid any cruises leaving from there.....what am I not getting? Thanks, M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not2old Posted May 10, 2012 #1928 Share Posted May 10, 2012 The Enchantment leaving Baltimore and possibly being replaced by Grandeur is like a dream coming true!! We travel an extra 4hrs to Bayonne to sail on the Explorer and would love to have an unstretched non ovrcrowded ship just two hours away! Even if nothing is final when we sail at the end of May, we will purchase future cruise certificates for which ever ship will be coming to Baltimore. Absolutely the nicest port we've ever sailed out of and love the Harbor area downtown and walking around Fell's Point. Maybe patience will pay off in 2013!

needabreakcanada Posted May 10, 2012 #1929 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I called and asked who was in san juan - the guy tells me adventure and serenade - but he was positive on serenade but not adventure why even both paying these people if you are not going to inform them?

OMG, nothing could be more hilarious . .

Cruzin-K Posted May 10, 2012 #1933 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yikes! Have read all the posts here because I am waiting for the repo Boston to Tampa Oct. '13, and I just have one question.....can someone tell me what the allure of San Juan is? Isn't it quite expensive to fly there? I have tried to avoid any cruises leaving from there.....what am I not getting?Thanks, M. For me, it's the ports and lack of sea days. Also, just for grins I looked up the price of flights from San Antonio to San Juan next January ($463) to sail on Brilliance and they are only about $70 more than flying to Orlando to sail on the Freedom, which is a MUCH more expensive cruise and would require the hassle of getting from MCO to the port via cruise transfer (in San Juan it's a quick cheap cab ride). Overall, the San Juan B2B on Brilliance is going to be a lot cheaper than a B2B on the Freedom, and I like the itineraries better. (I am considering a trip on the Freedom with a friend, but we may also do Brilliance so I'm checking prices for both) I'm imagining a similar scenario for January 2014.

We are about 45 min. from the port of Baltimore and love not having to fly. With the updates on Grandeur it will be a new experience even though we have been on her a couple of times.

#1packerfan Posted May 10, 2012 #1942 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I thought Adventure is out of drydock by Feb 2,2014 Maybe that's what it means??? I just saw on the schedule that it's Feb, 2014. If that's when it's out, that would be great, then no worries if we want to go toward the end of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, we love cruising out of San Juan for the islands and not having so many sea days. It's typically only about $100 pp more for us to fly to San Juan than it is for us to fly to FL. We are definately doing San Juan in Feb/March 2014, just trying to decide which ship and which itinerary or maybe a B2B on one of them. By the time we can actually book, we'll know what we are doing!
