gizzie4 Posted March 19, 2012 #1 Share Posted March 19, 2012 We received our cancellation notice in the post today, along with a copy of the confirmation of our original booking on the Dream and our new booking on the Celebration. For starters, on the Dream confirmation, the total price was showing as £300 more than our confirmation email, irrelevant, i know as it has been Cancelled. Secondly on both confirmation forms, it states " Thank you for booking with Thomson, we hope you enjoy life onboard Thomson DESTINY" Well i hope not as we are going on the Celebration, but i had to laugh.:D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizzie - have you heard who the Cruise Director will be on Celebration this summer? I have heard rumours that it will be Ray Bauers - would be good if you can let us know when you do - he was great when we were on the Spirit!

Julessmiles Posted March 20, 2012 #4 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Hi,Second that,he is a very good CD,but I think he is on the Dream. I copied this from the Thomson Website (Not sure how up-to-date it is) Stephen Guy Cruise Director, Thomson Dream I've had the pleasure of being the Cruise Director on all the Thomson ships – Spirit, Celebration and Destiny. And I'm really looking forward to continuing my role on Thomson Dream. Being at sea is brilliant. I love meeting new people and seeing them come back time and time again – it lets you know you're doing a good job. Being able to sing and perform as part of a great team is fantastic, and it's an honour to know we all contribute to the enjoyment of our passengers' holidays.

CRUISIN LINDA Posted March 20, 2012 #9 Share Posted March 20, 2012 You can stay on board until the coach takes you to the hotel. You will get details a couple of days before the end of your cruise, telling you what time you will be picked up.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran48 Posted March 20, 2012 #10 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Thanks Linda, had visions of us being tosses off the ship first thing in the morning, we might get our lunch onboard then, depending when the pick up is.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISIN LINDA Posted March 20, 2012 #11 Share Posted March 20, 2012 That's the American ships that throw you off at 9am! :rolleyes: I see you have been on Fred Olsen. We have been on the Braemar and love her! What are the Balmoral and Boudicca like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran48 Posted March 20, 2012 #12 Share Posted March 20, 2012 We enjoyed both the Boudicca and the Balmoral, the reason we thought we would try Thomson is we thought it might be a bit less formal.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUISIN LINDA Posted March 20, 2012 #13 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I think you will like the Celebration. It was our first cruise and got us hooked:) I expect you have heard of the "wobble", but you won't notice it after a while. I have to say that the Braemar really vibrated as we docked in Havana last year. So much so that people's plates fell off the table in the buffet:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran48 Posted March 20, 2012 #14 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yes I've heard about the wobble, we are on deck 7 in a suite, but from a lot of the comments I've seen the suites are not worth the extra. Too late its booked. We were in a lovely suite on the balmoral, although don't think we will book suites again it adds too much on to your holiday.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
