Re: Azura A409
Us as well.
There are a lot of web type people on this cruise, unless everyone is on the three sites I am as well
At this rate I may need the theatre for the meeting.

Re: Azura A409
Is this Smurfy's free CC cruise? Will there be any of the rest of us left?

No, there won't be any of us left?
In that case I think Smurfy is a jolly good egg.

Re: Azura A409
Have received my holiday information booklet now complete with luggage labels
It's starting to feel sooo much closer now!
Is it too early to start packing yet?

Re: Azura A409
Packing usually starts 2 weeks before we go - no sweat, no panic, be happy.
We forget things if we start too early. We once had a holiday in Hong Kong and packed the night before (!!!) so we have improved.
As we booked late we have no idea of which cabin or even which dinner sitting but it just adds to the excitement and keeps me locked onto the Cruise Personaliser.

Re: Azura A409
Looks like there are quite a number of this cruise now, but I cant believe I have only just seen this thread started by my OH Popeye, he did not tell me!! he reckons I should know how to use this forum by now.
Packing for me begins the day before we set off, Popeye meanwhile always asks me to advise on what to take and in the past I used to pack for him as well. however after a few training sessions he is now able to pack himself! (I will now wait for his response).
OBF - so you dont know the ship, no idea of cabin or dinner sitting. Do you find out before you go or wait till you board?
Anyway not long to go folks.

Re: Azura A409
CMG, I will probably hear about 2 weeks before we sail although it has been known to be allocated a cabin number at the terminal. It's a bit like playing roulette with cabin numbers. We have a guaranteed balcony cabin but it could be anywhere. Same with dinner sitting. They will allocate us wherever the gaps are. That's the joy of a late Saver fare. Fine if you are not worried about choosing where and what you want.
Good form from Popeye!!

colour schemes etc...
I tend to major on carrying the bags, driving and stopping as requested for bathroom stops... Basically this means
all services from here to Southampton

Not at home at the moment but I am certain there is one. But if there is not we could have our own. I will be taking at least 3 with me.

Re: Azura A409
Hi OBF,
Yes, there is a tropical night - or at least according to the holiday information which states: "We expect the following nights to take place during your holiday; 60s & 70s, Tropical, Black & White."
I shall be taking all my loud garish gear
