Sept 18 2010 WB TransAtlantic Pirates/Capt Jacks Re-Repoing Repossession Cruise Pt.3

BA economy return UK ro Barcelona is quite a good price and you can pay for an extra bag for £28.

Ok, will just book BCV for us.

I booked Hotel Continental Barcelona. There were some bad reviews, also some good reviews on TripAdvisor, but based on several emails with the manager we decided to keep it. The price is right, location right and they seem committed to assuring that we have a positive experience....and it is only for 2 nights.

That's where we are for just one night.

That's the one we've got and used it the other day. Worked really well and the weight agreed with the virgin scales at Westside yesterday.

We've booked a one-way flight with BA and will have to pay for the extra piece of luggage.

It looks like I will be joining you all on this cruise! I was originally booked on the EBTA, but it turns out that the trip coincides with the school breaks in my area. School breaks are a busy time for me (I'm a pet sitter) so I decided to jump over to the WBTA. I'll be sailing with my dad (Mark). I look forward to meeting everyone, and will try to sift through the whole thread in the next few days.

Welcome Aboard!!!!

Welcome onboard! Lots of dicussion right now on flights and hotels. Do you have yours booked?

I love your name...certainly fits your profession.

For the EBTA we were planning to take Aer Lingus through Dublin and spend a couple of days there. My dad lives in Orlando, and Aer Lingus only has flights to Dublin from there a few days a week. I did look at the flights in reverse (I'm coming from JFK) but I'm not sure what the best schedule will be yet. It looks like he can take a flight from Orlando to Dublin Tuesday evening arriving Wednesday morning, but there is a ten hour layover in Dublin before we can continue on to Barcelona. I'm not sure yet whether we should spend one night in Dublin and two in Barcelona, or just suck up the ten-hour layover and spend three nights in Barcelona. I hate to lose that much vacation time in an airport, but adding another hotel makes it more complicated. As long as I have the air confirmed before final payment I'll be happy.

Hi to everyone old and new.
We have managed to book upper class seats back to the UK using our air miles only we have to fly from Miami, so now we need some help. We will fly to Miami from Orlando so looking for info on carriers and how soon we could book this. Any help would be really appreciated.

No windows???

Not in our rooms....the singles from reports. I don't know if PJ actually checked with the hotel to verify or not.

Another couple of weeks before ours become available. Well we have to decide how long we are staying first.

I'm beginning to get worried about rough seas and hurricanes now.

Put it all in prospective. Being on the Magic with all your friends, entertained by Disney, not having to cook or clean for two weeks and not having to entertain the lil ones (if any are around) since they are Disney's problem now.. Compared to being stuck at home in a (insert applicable bad weather here), can't watch TV cuz the power is out (no entertainment), having to cook and clean, keeping kids entertained.

Bring on the bad weather. Besides we can come up with new games on board. For example when the boat is rocking we can all gather on one of the upper decks with office chairs (they ones with rollers). The goal would be getting from the starting line to the lobby without getting out of the chair. It would be like a human pinball machine

Hi Sarah, have you tried phoning the frequent flyer number. I noticed as well that even though the calender on the book flights page is up to date, when you try it says sorry no flights available for your dates. Good luck.

me too - I am going to have to be VERY co-ordinated with outfits and shoes on this trip to try and fit everything into 2 cases. I will be looking for shoes which are capable of multi-tasking.
