Nippy Sweetie Posted March 5, 2020 #27 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) Booked on board would be direct with Viking. Gratuities included seems to be usual with UK ships these days. The long queues at the pursers to cancel automatic tips must have told a tale to the cruise lines. Cultural and economic differences at large. Drinks package not commonly included, certainly not by Viking. OBC to be negotiated. Some people are not comfortable bargaining and the sales staff know that.

We intended to book an Alaska cruise while on board to get the on board booking incentives. We received an email from Viking saying in effect - book now and we will give you the on-board booking incentives plus the current web incentives. We now are booked on an Alaska cruise in 2021. I really wanted to book Alaska with Viking, but the #1 complaint I read about so many tender ports has held me back.

old biddy Posted March 5, 2020 #30 Share Posted March 5, 2020 We did Alaska last year. 2 tender ports, handled very well, certainly not a reason to not book. Viking have now done a whole season in Alaska, they have learnt abd ironed oyt the wrinkles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nippy Sweetie Posted March 5, 2020 #31 Share Posted March 5, 2020 It's the Alaska cruise we're off on in July. Really looking forward to it but can't help worrying if we'll actually be able to go. This virus just hangs over so many plans for us all. 🙁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
