My apologies, the last item of the Stateroom Services section shows D+ and Pinnacle members getting one free W&F bag for 5+ night sailings.

It must have just changed.  We were on EX a few weeks ago and got the "free" W&F laundry perk.  If this holds true I will be very VERY disappointed.  This is one of THE most important perks for us.  We use it EVERY time.  Won't be paying for it though.

Just boarded Explorer and discovered that the free $34.99 bag of laundry for D, D+ and Pinnacle has been removed and replaced with $10 discount. So the “free” bag now costs $24.99.

We are on that cruise as well. Travelling from Scotland to Southampton by car the day before the cruise. Staying overnight in a Hotel.
Congratulations on your milestone wedding anniversary. We celebrate our 50th in August and go on b2b cruises on RCI Explorer from Venice (Ravenna) in September to celebrate.

My daughter Olivia and myself will be on this cruise also. We are first time cruisers and are really looking forward to it. I've always wanted to do the Norwegian fjords and this was a Christmas present from my daughter. We are from Swansea in Wales so haven't really got far to travel to Southampton. 

Yes, sure is Scotland. No place like home for me 😄👍🏻

Looks great.  But it's not raining and it doesn't look cold.  Are you sure this is Scotland?

The photo was taken yesterday which was a beautiful sunny day. Yes, you’re correct, it can be wet, windy, cold and sunny - all in the same day in the West Coast of Scotland. We do get the occasional good spell of weather, and it is happening right now.

Oh, I know. Born and bred in the west end of Glasgow. I always joke that you need to have both an umbrella and sunscreen in your bag any time you set foot outside the door. 😊
One of my besties is from just down the road in Port Glasgow, although we both live elsewhere in Europe now.

Congratulations on your 50th anniversary also!  We are looking forward to Norway.  I plan to hike/walk each day before the cruise to prepare for hikes in Norway that I scheduled,  but it might be to late.  

There is a chance that RCI may offer an excursion to Bologna with airport drop-off on the day of departure from your cruise, similar to that currently on offer for Venice. Keep an eye out for it in the cruise planner. You may also be able to book it onboard. Best of luck.
 

Just booked this cruise for our anniversary! It'll be my first time to Europe and our first non-Caribbean cruise

Hi Bazza
We now have our transfers included and we received an updated Booking Invoice from RCI today. Transfers from Bologna Airport (BLQ) to the ship on 17th September and return transfer from the ship to BLQ on 1st October after our second (b2b) cruise. Our TA, Cruise Kings, arranged it for us.
Best try to arrange it ASAP in case the coach fills up and they run out of seats.

My TA has confirmed that RCI will be providing coach transfers between Bologna Airport and the Port of Ravenna on cruise days. £37 per person each way. Flight details are required by RCI to make a booking.
