Review summary

Activities for kids. Need to ad quality shows for adults. We skipped Turkey and got a $23. Credit!

We ended in Barcelona but had a 6:30 AM departure!' No time to see Barcelona.

That make two ports never seeing!

As a result of our 6:30 AM DISEMBARKMENT, we did not get

a final bill. Please mail one for my eleven people on my charge

Flights that were rebooked due to Air France Striking putt my son's family of 5

stranded in Chicago for 30 hours!!

The ships have kiosks so you can print and/or email your statement at any time. Or the customer relations area could have printed it for you.

Would you rather be in Turkey during a military coup? As for Barcelona that's planning. Book an extra day. France always has strikes. Fairly common and they have security issues as well. Planning and trip insurance is key.

Travel is always a risk, especially with the current world situation. Turkey is unsafe! The Captain has to choose safety over hurt feelings. The strikes in France have been going on for awhile as well. If you are going g to take a chance on a vacation where there is unrest, get trip insurance or rethink your plans! Some people live in a bubble and have no SA!

Do you think someone on this site will send you a final bill? Trip insurance should cover your problems with Air France.
