Cruisergal Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Joey, Great reduction!! I doubt we would qualify since we booked as a package deal. The price was pretty well set because of what all it included. I checked this morning with Delta about when we would have to reclaim luggage and was told it would be in the first city after leaving the US. For us that will be Milan. Sure hope there will be enough time between flights to do so and get rechecked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Hey thanks for the heads up Joey - will research this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikieF Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 We, also, are going to have to claim our luggage once we arrive at Heathrow before heading to Barcelona....We have 3 hrs., but think that will be pretty much taken up with waiting for bags and re-checking, and going through security again! NOT a day we are looking forward to!! Wishing us all "good baggage re-check karma"! :) Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love2Travel Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Joey what is considered senior for the discount? anyone 55 and over? or is it 50 and over? thanks...Gail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love2Travel Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Tonia, this is just an opinion because this is our first time to the Med but since the time element is longer to get to and from St Paul de Vence (assuming you are taking public transportation), i would start out going there first. nice will be the hub. You need to take the 100 bus to nice and then transfer to another line for SPV (400). Return trip to Nice where you can take the 82 bus or 112 bus to Eze and then on to Monte Carlo. you can take the train back to VF for the fastest route back. i think I read that Oia is about a 20-30 minute bus ride from fira. i guess it is on a narrow road on edge of cliff. Should be beautiful and nail biting. we plan on takig the bus out to Oia. I think it only cost 1 euro. hope this helps. Congrats on getting close to the vacation hrs you need. We work on the accrued hour thing also- so many hours are accrued for so many hours you have worked. i like the method. Gail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
