    We are back from Greece (actually back Monday night) and had a great trip! Saw so many amazing things and was so glad to visit in October versus summer because it was still incredibly hot. As always, Virgin Voyages just hits - we had a rockstar suite this time and that was awesome. I kept...

    Checking in after a long time. Just wanted to stop by and say hello to everyone! Things have been crazy busy for me the past few months. But can you believe it - in one week I will be leaving for my Greece cruise that I originally booked BEFORE COVID WAS A THING. lol.

    Cash prices for travel = insane. Points prices for travel = insane. I broke down and booked my flights to Greece for October. I've been tracking for a few weeks and prices were only getting worse. You may recall I was supposed to take the trip this past October but Virgin Voyages canceled the...

    Just been thinking of all my old Disboards friends from this thread during the holidays. Hope SW isn't causing too much chaos for you all. I've been shocked watching it all on TV! We did our Vegas trip earlier in the month. Elara was excellent since I was working from the room all week. Good...

    You can add me to the list of DVC owners not able to get the dates they wanted - easily at least. I do have a reservation for the summer at a time I don't really want but it is what it is... maybe something will open. Also passing by to remind folks to get a flu shot. I got mine in September...

    I'm kind of considering the CSR for DH. He is eligible. We are talking about getting new carpet in the bedrooms but we are not quite ready just yet ( need to paint, etc first) so I will need to lineup my timing. You may recall my Virgin Voyages cruise to Greece was moved to next year and I was...

    I use PayPal a lot and I just get pushed offers via the app. If you log into the PP app, you should see offers.

    Goodness the last three weeks or so have been bonkers fo me between work and sick family members and friends. Things seem to be leveling off again. I need to book all my excursions for my Med cruise in October still. I did grab a Cap One Savor just so I could have a MasterCard. I have to say I...

    A few thoughts / details: DH and I are back from our first Virgin Voyages cruise. We did the Fire and Sunset Soirees cruise out of Miami, Fl to Key West and Bimini, Bahamas. The private Virgin Voyages beach club is on Bimini. Flight from CVG to MIA was on Frontier, paid cash and it wasn't...

    I feel like I've spent the last 10 days furiously making travel plans / then changing them / then changing again. But it seems at this point I have my travel for my surprise cruise in 10 days finally sorted for good AND I got my flights fixed for Barcelona, Spain instead of Athens, Greece due to...

    Well I'm on way to reworking the canceled Greek cruise, so an update and then a question for the hive mind here: With the 200% future sailing credit and free access key offered since my October cruise was scrapped, I was able to add a Bahamas sailing next month (surprise trip!) and I moved my...

    As I sit on hold with Virgin Voyages, I'm reminded of the good old days when travel was easier and fun. :( Remember when you could buy an AP to the World and just go whenever, with no reservation? I digress. I think we have a new Virgin plan now - book a short cruise next month out of Miami...

    Well there is one other cruise that is a match for my dates, out of Barcelona. So that's an option, maybe...

    Yep, that is one option I'm considering. DH has heart set on a Virgin cruise and he's digging in on that, so who knows where we'll end up, vacation-wise.

    Welp I've got a travel pickle now. Today Virgin Voyages pushed back the entire sailing season for Resilient Lady (their newest ship) which means my Greece cruise in October got canceled. I booked it well over a year ago. Flights have been booked for ages via points (of course). The cancelation...

    The Biz version is offering 110k miles for 6k spend. Same fee. Just FYI in case you didn't see that one. The Plat is offering 90k miles for 3k spend. $250 fee.

    It's a tempting offer... only a 5k spend in 3 months... But man I hate that annual fee. It is tempting tho...

    I won't be making any more payments until the final due date, which is mid June. If there's a shooting war in Europe with NATO countries involved all bets are off and we won't be going to Greece. I booked the cruise so long ago, it is covered under special COVID terms from the line. Our flights...

    I caved and bought the cruise protection from Virgin for our Greece trip. The quotes for insurance from outside providers seems absolutely insane expensive and I wouldn't say it was "cheap" from Virgin either. Aerosmith announced new Las Vegas residency dates today, so we might go in December...
