Naples transfers

[Pensioncruiser]

Just noticed on our booking for next year that it looks like Naples arrivals are the same as for Barbados 

'IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT NAPLES

To check in your bags in the UK you'll need to visit the Marella Cruises stand. We'll security seal your bag and attach your cabin number to speed up the process at the other end. There's no need to collect your bags when you land as they’ll be sent straight to the ship. You will be directed from your plane onto the transfer coach, without having to enter the airport building.

Hope this doesn't change after brexit

Ooh, that's interesting.  It certainly makes for an easy start to the holiday. Thanks  for letting us know.

I have just telephoned TUI and there is no bonded luggage for Naples at present. Only Dubrovnik and Caribbean.

Pity because we are sailing out of Naples in June.

I thought it strange but it's definitely printed as above on my booking confirmation perhaps it's for next year who knows 🙄

Strange that it categorically mentions Naples

Maybe its because we should be out of the EU next year and we'll be classed as in transit after Brexit??

Croatia is in the EU but doesn't use the EURO and isn't in the Schengen Area so maybe this is why bonded luggage is allowable there as you are classed as in transit as in the Caribbean 

Any other ideas

Can't get my head round why they make a point of not going through the airport, as you know that's the case with Barbados but not Dubrovnik, all will become clear eventually😊

Curiouser and curiouser 

is it TUI in Wonderland?

Have just checked our paperwork for the cruise this year from Naples and on the original booking done last year there is no mention of luggage and Naples but I did book a cabin last week and on the updated paperwork it now says exactly what Pensioncruiser said. Can’t find anything about that on TUI/Marella website.

Looks likely then which is great news hopefully we should have a report in a few months time👍👍👍👍
