Going to Orthopedic Surgeon on Thursday to see when I can schedule the first knee replacement.

Just returned from a 26 day cruise of the Baltic and Transatlantic to NYC. Booked our air through Princess Cruises, Albuquerque, New Mexico to Copenhagen, Denmark. All went well until our leg out of Madrid, Spain to Copenhagen. Iberian Express service, 3 hour flight. Less that six inches of leg room for all seats. At six feet;4 inches: needless to say I was :Stuffed: into a seat. Did physical damage to both of my knees on this flight. This is a "No Frills" airline where a plastic glass of water will cost you 5 Euros. Spent over $1,300 in medical expenses aboard the Regal Princess. Anything to kill the pain in my left knee!! Used a cane for the entire cruise and had to disembark in New York City in a wheel chair. Went to my primary doctor today for more pain meds and referral to an orthopedic surgeon. Looks like a knee replacement is in my future. Bone grinding on bone thanks to my airline flight with Iberian. Just wanted to alert all my fellow cruisers to avoid this airline at all costs. Been flying all of my life and never run into a situation like this.

Shari, just a low light but it sure does the trick. Been using it at home too and it is for sure going on our 25 day cruise later this month.

Why you Need to Make Viking Ocean Your Next Cruise
TheSkipper replied to Jan115's topic in Other Cruise Lines
Just booked the Viking Sun for New Years Cruise 2018/19. -
Used one of these on our recent Equinox cruise. If you have every stumbled around a cruise ship stateroom in the pitch dark you might want one of these. Using it at home now too.

Make Safety the #1 Priority After Boarding Your Cruise Ship
TheSkipper commented on Jan115's blog entry in Tuesday Travel Tips
Like the "grab and go kit" idea. That one was new to me. -

Have a red, white and blue strap that goes around the bag and it has my name woven into it. Kind of hard to miss. LOL -
Wish I could get "refurbished."
