pwake Posted July 15, 2017 #51 Share Posted July 15, 2017 We were on the Caribbean Princess with you. We were told the reason for the long delay for tenders at Queensferry was a medical emergency that tied up operations for some time. We enjoyed the cruise very much and I enjoyed your review!

Rare Suskies Posted July 16, 2017 Author #52 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Suskies Thanks for all the great info, very helpful for our BI cruise next May. Can you tell us about how much your "full English" breakfast cost at Patisserie and if it included tea or coffee? Trying to decide if we should use hotel breakfast or not. Also, how bad was the hill leading to the train in Greenock? It sounds really steep and long (from other reviews), so not sure we could make it! ML We didn't go up to the staiton, because we took the shuttle, but the bus went up it and it was quite steep. Glasgow and Edinburgh are also quite hilly, for what it's worth.

Rare Suskies Posted July 16, 2017 Author #53 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Hi, HOTEL HOPPA. Does it pick up on every terminal or just a specific terminal? We will be coming on Delta. Thanks ChattTenn I can't say for sure. There are a few different Hotel Hoppa buses. Check with your hotel--ours gave us the bus numbers that serve it and their schedules.

cricketts Posted July 17, 2017 #55 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Just finished our wonderful British Isles cruise on the Caribbean Princess. I'm reporting each day separately so you can jump to whatever you're interested in... Thank you so much for this fabulous review! I love how you reported each day separately - it makes it so easy to use your information as a guide in planning :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cricketts Posted July 17, 2017 #56 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Thanks for your review! I am looking at doing this cruise with my family on the Royal next June. Trying to figure out how to afford balcony cabins instead of interiors (no oceanview option on Royal), so with the weather you had do you think the balcony expense was worth it? Thanks for the review, we booked the British Isles on the Royal next June! Sent from my iPad using Forums We're on the June 30th sailing of Royal Princess. If this is your cruise also, come join our roll call - it's not very active yet! http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2454811 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easyboy Posted July 17, 2017 #58 Share Posted July 17, 2017 HOTEL HOPPA. Does it pick up on every terminal or just a specific terminal? We will be coming on Delta. Thanks ChattTenn You can check on http://www.nationalexpress.com/airports/heathrow-hotel-hoppa.aspx the hotel stops by the Hoppa bus from Terminal 3 (Delta). Just click on "Download a pdf copy of our Heathrow Hotel Hoppa timetable." Depending on your hotel, it may also require you to transfer to another terminal to get to your Hoppa Bus Stop while using the free airport train shuttle.

Posaune Posted July 17, 2017 #59 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Thanks for the great review. We have done this cruise three times and have it back up on our list again. We have always brought a power strip for charging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare trbarton Posted July 18, 2017 #60 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Curious if there was a Meet & Greet on your cruise & if so did you go & how was it? Thanks for your review & taking the time to report everything. I use my IPad for posting & set up my headings in advance using pages, then copy & past into CC to save time on my internet minutes. Luckily everything came out fine. Thanks again. Tom😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
