L. on 19 Apr, and will continue with the ship to depart at Rome on 3 May. Let's see if we can all get together, either for a lunch or to have an adult beverage (or both), and talk Space-A, past and future. Not sure if I will be flying my red bandana or not, but we can contact through the guest assistance desk.

We are now actively looking at another crossing from Ft. Lauderdale into the Med or northern Europe also with Princess. We can't quite agree on the final destination. We'll Space-A back home though.   Phyllis DeLancey Senior Member Username: Phyllis Post Number: 2522 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 08:28 pm:    William, we did the cruise to Rome too. We took the train from Civitavecchia to Naples, stayed on basee waiting for the weekly flight back. Since we live in Texas we kept an eye on Ft. Worth and saw one coming to Sig, so we hopped down there for a few days than got it right back to Ft. Worth. We ron in Lajes, stopped in Brusnwick for fule than right to Texas. It was wonderful American Airlines could not have got us closer to home. We did buy first class tickets for the train to Naples, and were glad we had.   William Dimsdale Member Username: Mebillyd Post Number: 24 Registered: 03-2009 Posted on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 - 02:32 pm:    Sorry the Cruise we are taking is Fort Lauderdale to Rome (Civitavecchia) Italy on Celebrity lines departing on April 19, 2010. Senior moment!!   Phyllis DeLancey Senior Member Username: Phyllis Post Number: 2515 Registered: 06-2003 Posted on Monday, January 18, 2010 - 02:29 pm:    While I have cruised into Barcelona twice on repositioning cruises, only once did it end there. We came back commercial, most folks took the train to Rota to come back. If you are able to search back to last year you should find lots of info on what you are looking for.   William Dimsdale Member Username: Mebillyd Post Number: 23 Registered: 03-2009 Posted on Monday, January 18, 2010 - 12:35 pm:    Another Retired Navy , his wife, my wife and I are booked on this cruise. We opted to fly back commercial as the fare was about $600.00 each and transportation and lodging could eat that up before we got a hop. Would like to meet any Spats taking this cruise please send me a direct email so we can set that up.   Roger Johnson Advanced Member Username: Rwjohn6 Post Number: 264 Registered: 05-2008 Posted on Monday, January 18, 2010 - 11:00 am:    Owen I am looking at this as well. I assume it is Princess cruise. We have upgrade, free, to balcony if we go. I think with two couples a car would be the way although it is 800 miles so train may be way. I have driven some of this last year as we were in Spain twice last year.
