mstelly Posted March 7, 2014 #201 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Jane: Did the Panamanian immigration request hotel receipts/proof of staying upon departure? We were told that there may be a fine if you have no proof? If so, did you bring something from the ship? Review was wonderful and helpful, in Panama now, leaving on the Vision tomorrow.

Rare sailawaybellaluna Posted March 7, 2014 #202 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Jane, Thanks so much for this wonderful review! We're doing the same ship/itinerary in a few weeks and can't wait! We'll be staying at the Waldorf in Panama and were wanting to arrange a taxi to Colon, and probably a return trip back + a brief stop at the locks. Would you be able to pass along Eric's information? Looks like a wonderful time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only asked where we stayed, but that was all. Have a great cruise the ship is so nice. We liked to eat at Chops Grill whit Hernan as a waiter.

IF you are an American citizen you can stay in Panama for 180 days without any problem. There is no need for a visa. You only need to say why you came to Panama and where you were while here. If you didn't stay at a hotel but went to the ship and then back to the airport . . . just tell them that. We have people come and stay with us and they have never had to pay a fine because they didn't have a receipt for their stay here! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rum & monkey Posted March 8, 2014 #209 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Ate lunch in the Windjammer.....there was not a soul there.....wonderful. We had a nice afternoon of relaxation. HOWEVER!!!!!........In our new cabin....8568...we are just under the far end of the Solarium. They roll carts through there all day. Laundry carts, carts with towels, food carts, drink carts.....all kinds of carts!!! It sounded like a bowling alley above our heads!! We never had a moment's peace. It subsided in the evenings and over night a bit. But at least 3-4 times during the night I was awakened by this noise. More on this later.[/size][/font] Hate to hear that it was so noisy, we are in cabin 8570 (the connecting cabin to 8568) in three weeks. The only other JS available is 8552 which is 8 cabins closer to the elevators. Do you think it would be better or worse? Was the noise bad enough that I'd be better off upgrading to a GS?

maxs mom Posted March 10, 2014 Author #220 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Hello everyone! Sorry to be MI for so long. We had a horrible ice storm here in NC on Friday and we were without power until yesterday. We did OK, though. I was able to cook because of natural gas and a gas grill. Holly freaked out, but she is gradually getting better. The damage was just awful. Although we have power, the Internet is still down, so I won't be able to post until that is back up. We're at McDonalds right now!! So hopefully it won't be too much longer. Y'all please stay tuned......there is lots more to come. To the person who has cabin 8570......move!! The 8550's are better, I believe. We were in one of those on Grandeur and I don't remember any noise. You DO need the yellow copy of what they give you at the airport when you enter the country.....to leave!! So please put that in a safe place and have it ready when debarking. OK......back to my scrumptious lunch at McD's. hopefully I will be back soon!! Will try to keep you posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted March 10, 2014 #225 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Silly question, but did you notice if the Vision had the new Freestyle Coca Cola machines? No Freestyle on Vision. Currently, Royal only puts Freestyle machines on those ships based in the US year round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
