Thanks everyone. I think we are also going to do the Les Calanches excursion. Get to sign up for them soon so I'm just hoping to get on the ones we want! Good luck!

I am almost positive I would love to go on your Rome tour - I have a call out to my husband just to double check. I cannot send a PM to you yet (too low of a post count - hee hee newbie!!) I will let you know hopefully VERY soon.
Thanks so much!!
Melissa

Hi Cindy!
Just wanted to make sure you have us (Randy and I) down for the Rome tour with you guys.
Thanks,
Melissa

Just made my reservations and am happy that I got everything we wanted (well, except from the fact that I was wanting to do Palo High Tea and that was fully booked, but I fully expected that to happen).

I'm especially happy that we got Palo dinner on the evening of our wedding anniversary

We are booked on three DCL excursions, "Les Calanches" (Corsica), "Italian Countryside & Olive Oil" (Civitavecchia) und the "Cinque Terre Scenic Boat Tour" (La Spezia), is anybody else here doing any of those?

Okay, time for breakfast now (it's 6:30 in the a.m. here)

Made our reservations. Mostly Palo, spa, and nursery ressies. Malta's Blue Grotto was the only excursion we booked as the others we either have guides or are doing them ourselves. They didn't have anything for Palermo up.

I still have 6 seats available for the Brunch on 3 June (if I'm able to get the reservation).

If anyone is interested in joining us (DopeyFan1966, htmlkid, nhmomofson) please PM me or email me your reservation number and I will add you to the brunch.

Cindy,
Did you have any luck with the brunch reservation? I was able to get a dinner and our Florence/Pisa excursion. We are doing private tours or trod on our own for the other ports. I am hoping to get high tea on board, but we shall see. Thanks for all that you are doing!!

If you go down the list you will see the Palermo excursions. It isn't listed as a port to click on, but if you list all excursions and then go down alphabetically by port you will see the Palermo excursions.

Only one problem, I'm trying to book the Selinunte and Marinella excursion, but once I click on it and try to reserve it I get a different excursion. One I don't think they can provide, being it is for Juneau, Ketchikan and another Alaska port. There must be a problem with their system. I'm currently on hold with a waiting time of 18 minutes, trying to get it booked.

On the phone now, trying to get this booked.

I can't book a group brunch at Palo until I have at least 12 guests. If anyone is interested I need your information ASAP so I can book the group room for us. They will not book the room unless I have 12 or more.

Currently I have only 7 people wanting to participate. Please let me know if anyone else is interested. I would love to be able to do this. Currently their are no brunch reservations for any tables, but the room is available.

Even if I request the room, there is no guarantee that we will get it. I have to fax the request in with everyone's name and reservation number, then 30 days before the cruise they will let me know if we got the room.

The sooner the better though to get this information to them.

The good news is, I just made a reservation at Palos! Yippee! Our first time there...Woo-Whoo. My question is...how long is dinner? Our reservation is at 7pm and the farewell show is at 8:30. For those who have experienced Palo diners, do you think we will have enough time to make the final show? If not, I will change it to 6pm. Thanks for your help. Rachelle

You should be able to make it, especially if you tell them you would like to see the show afterwards. However, to make it more relaxed for you, it might be a good idea (but not absolutely necessary) to change it to half an hour earlier. Anyhow, enjoy Palo! It's great!

When we had our Palo dinner, I had a slight migraine and our server could probably notice I wasn't feeling too well and did not want to linger, and she had our dinner over in about 1 hour and 15-20 minutes and it did not feel overly rushed (I couldn't eat that much, but DH definitely got everything he wanted )

I'm learning daily on how to use the website. Today I just figured out how to add contact information to the website. If you are on the website and would like to send me a comment or information, you can go to the bottom of the home page and fill out the contact form. I will receive an email with your information/comments.

So far we have 12 for the Brunch. I don't know what the maximum is allowed, but I'm sure it isn't much more than that. I'm figuring 14 at the most. So if there is anyone else that would like to join us I only have 2 seats left.

Currently I have enough to send the request. I will send it one day this week. Keep your fingers crossed that we will get the room.

Not sure if anyone else booked Air Europa to get over but I just checked the Airline today and the canceled my Thursday flight out of Miami... I was in a panic for a short time but then found a great deal on Delta and was able to extend our stay 2 days.

Please check your flight if you booked on Air Europa!!!!

The good news is they gave us a full refund with no problems.

 

[DopeyFan1966]

I currently have 14 people for the group brunch. So the brunch is full, if others would like to do it on another day please let me know and I will fax in 2 requests.

Keep in mind that there is no guarantee that I will even get the booking. They review all requests and pick one for each day requested. Hopefully with 1 wedding anniversary and 1 birthday in our party we will be the lucky ones.

I would totally freak out, it's a good thing you checked. Did they send you an email or did you just happen to be checking on everything and found out your flight was canceled. What poor customer service if they didn't email you.
