Just booked our BA flight Toronto to Rome for Nov.16th,2011...was able to get Business Class seats without any problem.
Regent's hotels,though very elegant,are just a tad to far from the center of Rome(IMHO). However, they do provide free shuttle service down town.
Think we will stay more centrally.
Hard to believe that this time next year our cruise will be over (OK still have 1 more day).
