Hi,

have only just booked this cruise(on-line), last minute decision 20th Wedding Aniversary , and we have to collect our tickets etc at the airport.

We have cruised 4 time before ( P&O and Princess) so are used to cruising etc but does anyone know,

Where at the airport do we collect the tickets.

What time does the cruise sail away from Tenerife ( day 1)

We take it theres one formal night ( hubby has D.J) BUT, is there and "informal" night requiring a normal suit.

We guess the other nights are smart casual.

Are we going to be able to get a table for two? not being unsociable, we have had some great tablemates and some not so great.

Hi,
At the airline customer service desk you are flying with, or TA desk if you do not know airline. Failing those go to airport service desk. Hard to tell you not knowing whom you booked with.
One formal night all the rest are smart casual/casual no jacket required, about 50% will don a DJ or Tux.
Sailing according to my schedule is set for 5pm, subject to no delays on incoming flights.
Dining is not set so you turn up and are seated each night, you may have to wait for table for two, but you would be very unlucky to be seated with same people each night unless you asked to be seated together and turn up all at same time. So worth trying the bigger table meeting different folk each night.

Have a great cruise give us a review on your return

Thanks,
today I got a confirmation through and I have just found out that we go to the Thomson desk at Gatwick South Terminal.

We have had to choose late or early sitting, we chose late but it says early on our confirmation, I'm not fussed either way seeing as we dont have the kids with us. So going by what you say, you dont get a set table for the entire cruise, well thats ok with us then.

and just the D,~j not other suit needed, great, thanks.

Returned from the Destiny this morning. We had our tickets well before we left so I cannot help you on that one. Destiny sails at midnight. We had one formal night and this consisted of D.Js, lounge suits, kilts and even just smart shiit and tie. Othe rnights you can really please yourself. I dont this you will get a table for two as we did not see any. Breakfast is open sitting and is either buffet or waiter service, you choose. Lunch is the same, but dinner is two sittings on rather large tables. Anythig else I can help with?
