pepperrn Posted May 31, 2006 #3 Share Posted May 31, 2006 must be someone coming?dave Dave, Looks like the whole of Britannia will be a single seat(ing) resturant for this crossing. You'll have no trouble getting a reservation in Todd English. I'd ask to be up-graded to the Balmoral Suite the first night, the Sandringham the second. Then try the four royal suites near the bow the next. You decide which nights will be formal. No-one pushing in front of you in the planetarium to get the centre seats. They will start the show in the Royal Court Theatre only when you are ready. No trouble getting a table in the window bays in Kings Court. You'll be off the ship first (and last!). No trouble getting a cab. :) Enjoy your unique crossing! Bet my next one is sold out and crowded, worst luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Båtnes Posted June 6, 2006 #7 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I don't remember the cabin no., but it is on deck 6 as well. Yes, Ålesund is a great place on earth - yesterday was truly magnificent, blue sky, sun shining, cristal clear air, and some snow still on the mountain tops... had a great time all yesterday riding my Triumph trough this scenery.

Portrait24 Posted June 7, 2006 #8 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I have an obstructed view balcony on 18 July crossing. What are your observations since you had one? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seabourndt Posted June 7, 2006 Author #9 Share Posted June 7, 2006 the balcony was nice but personally i wish we had kept the window at least we would have had a good view. the lifeboat though it wasc the small pilot one totaly spoiled any view. we werre in cherbourg wheree it was a holiday to celebrate the ship coming in. hopefullly the view will be much better. batnes what sort of cabin do you have? not a hull balcony is it? i envy you of the great views of alesund i reALLY ENJOYED MY TIME THERE. i went to the 2 islandsone with a church and one with a lighthouse. dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Båtnes Posted June 8, 2006 #10 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Our cabin comes with in-hull balcony, cat. B1. The island with the small church was Giske, in fact it is a chapel from the 11. century. The island with the lighthouse is Godøy, and the lighthouse stands just outside the small community of Alnes.

One can sit the whole day surfing on this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
