zetarose Posted September 12, 2008 #5 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Woohoo,just rang travel agents about my tickets and they are ready for me to pick up.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crinkle Posted September 13, 2008 Author #6 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I booked and paid for the holiday last Friday, so I've no been waiting long. Just wanted an idea before I started to stamp my foot! They said up to a month, but usually within two weeks. I will give it another week before I chase and pretend I don't know any better ;) . Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happidaze Posted September 13, 2008 #8 Share Posted September 13, 2008 There will be an excursion desk on the boat for you to have a look, also they will have an excursion meeting earlier on. You will also have the cruise news pushed under your door each day telling you what will be on. All in all you will never miss excursions available! I bet you cannot wait now! Happy Cruising!

zetarose Posted September 13, 2008 #9 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Hi Happidaze,thanks for reply,Im really looking forward to my cruise,will be interested to see what other excursions they have on offer,dont fancy doing all day ones all of the time,be nice to go on an excursion in the morning then come back to ship to chill out and sit down with a nice cocktail or 2 and watch the world go by. Mary is also coming on the same cruise,so hoping to meet up with her and help her start at top of the cocktail list and work down;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagalout1954 Posted September 14, 2008 #10 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Got confirmation of everything we did relating to our cruise within days of doing it. Booking confirmation, deposit confirmation, cabin booking confirmation, payment confirmation - you name it, Thomson confirmed it......and usually TWICE. I've got more paper confirmation from them than you can shake a blinking stick at!!!! Tickets arrived a couple of days ago for cruise on 3 October - nearly threw it away it looked like junk mail, a sort of 'tear out' voucher book style thing.

Swerve Posted September 15, 2008 #17 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Hi allWhen you've booked your cruise, when did you all get your letters confirming the booking? Thanks When I booked last November I had a letter of confirmation about a week later. Today I had another confirmation letter. I saw they had us down for an early sitting, we wanted a late sitting so contacted customer services and they changed it there and then...........................well I hope they did ! Less than 12 weeks to go and counting down the days ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crinkle Posted September 16, 2008 Author #18 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'm getting twitchy to nag them, but I've said to myself wait until friday evening, and if no letter, then give them a ring. My mom said she usually gets all the info and confirmation within two weeks, and sometimes within a couple of days. She is also waiting this time though.

Alsacienne Posted September 18, 2008 #23 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I am getting a bit twisted off with Thomsons, because I had my son added as a late edition, and they couldn't spell his name right and when the confirmation came they STILL couldn't get it right. I seem to speak to the same young (?) lady every time and she sounds as though she's had too good a party the night before because she NEVER copes with the concept that I'm CRUISE ONLY and don't need to have tickets to get on a flight!! We go round the houses several times, and after having had to hold at least four times today - that song is beginning to grate - I asked to speak to her supervisor ...... held again! ......... and then she says that her supervisor is too busy to speak to me, but she (the supervisor) says that ......... exactly what I had told this lady at the beginning of my call!! GROWL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
