jd-mac Posted May 2, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Wondering if Marella provides some sort of air from Canada to connect with Med cruises. As a veteran of Marella D2 Cuban fusion cruise which we were very pleased with,we are interested in a Med cruise in the future on the ex Celebrity Explorer. Not all TA's in BC are up to speed yet.

Vitalsign Posted May 3, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I don't think so the deal is with Sunwing to fly you to Montego Bay You will probably have to arrange your own flights to the UK and return then book the cruise with TUI which includes the flights to and from the UK Your problem maybe paying as you live outside the UK However we met. Norwegian on our recent Transatlantic who has done a number of TUI cruises from the UK by using a UK address and his card was accepted for payment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jd-mac Posted May 3, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted May 3, 2018 You are probably correct re the air inclusive. As for the credit card , visa is visa,as I previously paid for a flight from London to Rome so I don't think Marella would have, any trouble taiking payment from Canada via Canadian credit card.

Vitalsign Posted May 3, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 3, 2018 The usual problem encountered by US citizens wanting to book has been entering their address on line as it's not recognised and you can't proceed to payment Have you relatives or friends in UK whose address you can use?

jd-mac Posted May 4, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted May 4, 2018 This will not be a factor as like my previous Marella cruise it will likely be booked through a Canadian TA.I can get a flight from Vancouver to Malaga and return with Transat if all else fails.

davecttr Posted May 4, 2018 #6 Share Posted May 4, 2018 All Marella fly cruises are available as no fly as well. You arrange and pay for own flights and just arrive at the port. I don't think you get a discount from the cruise price though so the simplest solution may to fly trans atlantic to the UK and use tha Marella flight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SausPud Posted May 4, 2018 #7 Share Posted May 4, 2018 For the length of flight and it is not linked to the ship, I would arrive a day or more before. 2 days would give you plenty of time to adjust to the time difference and then you are shipshape and ready to cruise. I do this on the cruise's the other way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
