Great cruise but due to unpredictable weather in the Baltic Sea we missed stops at Berlin and Tallinn. St. Petersburg was beautiful but President Putin delayed our departing by an hour and a half jamming the ships GPS systems while he attending a soccer match in St Petersburg.

Make dinner reservations on-line in advance to avoid waits on the first day and sea days to avoiding longer waits for tables.

@Itopley when they skip a port itâs either because they canât dock or it can put people in danger. If itâs really windy and horrible seas the would skip it only if they canât dock if they can they would

If you don't mind me asking, you said weather is very unpredictable and you missed two ports. Was the ship not able to dock because of the weather? my husband and I go mid September. We were just wondering how bad the weather has to be before they make the decision not dock at the port thanks.
