    I tried online, but gave them a call went through the process to see what the cost came out at. Price is based on market value, unless you get it changed. I also got the same message above, but called them back again and got the quote resent via email which then worked fine. Suspect the issue is...

    Norwegian cruise, London, Bavaria and the Maldives

    I had the same tour director on my Polarlys cruise 2 years ago (same guy who was pouring the ice above). He made the cruise so worthwhile and made us all have a great time onboard!

    Norwegian cruise, London, Bavaria and the Maldives

    I found that when I did the Hurtigruten cruise on MS Polarlys 2 years ago, I found that to see the lights onboard the ship required a very steady hand when taking pictures (due ship movement). Best chance to take some good pictures I feel would be off the ship during one of the port stops in an...

    Flybuys British Airways Offer (Oct 2019)

    Flybuys are appearing to have a 50x Flybuys points on all bookings made via their website for British Airways. I've never booked travel via flybuys, but my understanding is that this would normally be 1 Flybuys Point per dollar spent, so (for example) a booking worth $2000 would get 100,000...

    Clothing and footwear in snowy and icy regions

    Having been to Iceland and Norway, I'd recommend a good quality pair of waterproof shoes for the snow etc, along with a good quality jacket to keep out the Arctic wind. One of my regrets was not taking a very warm beanie to keep the head warm

    thread for private health sign up bonuses

    Unsure if there is a thread or not, but may be worth holding off changing providers until all the policies for all providers are grouped into Gold, Silver, Bronze groups etc per new Govt regulations from April. I'm holding off comparing my insurance until then and sign-on bonuses would be a nice...

    The land of Iceland, Norwegian Coastal Cruise and a touch of Germany!

    The trip I had was an experience I'll never forget! Re your questions... If it was an official excursion organised by the boat, then you had to pay for that. Where stops at ports were long enough (approx 1hr), this was enough to get off the boat yourself to have a quick look around and then get...
