Thanks for the reminder, Jim. We have decided on the excursions for the first 3 ports.
Also, we have booked the b2b. So, we're continuing on from Hamburg to Lisbon.

Well last evening I got on line and booked our own business class air for this cruise. United/ Lufthansa. Billings to Denver. Denver to Munich. Munich to Stockholm. Hamburg to Frankfurt. Frankfurt to Denver. Denver to Billings. Saved a bunch of $$$$$ don't have deviation charges, and we get the mileage points!

When the air is done it feels SO GOOD. Fortunately Ken does all our air and he is good at it for sure.

Jeff, Helen, Jan, and I have made our shuttle reservations from Stockholm airport to Hilton Garden Inn on the 16th. Well I should say we each made our own since our arrival is different. We all do have are shuttle reservations from the hotel to the ship. Still working on the ship to hotel in Hamburg. Do have our own shuttles lined up from Hampton Inn & Suites to Hamburg airport on the 4th. Now to figure out what to do in Stockholm August 17th-18th. and also Hamburg September 2nd - 3rd

You are a planner Jim! We are quick on flights but not transfers. Ken works on the day that the flights open. Usually do a taxi or an uber finding ubers all over the world. On occassion with a tight flight connection we set up a transfer.

Now we have everything booked and ready except. Disembarking the ship in Hamburg. The 4 of us would like to be picked up, ( with luggage), from the ship. Given a 4 to 5 hour tour, before taken to the Hampton Inn & Suites where we are staying. So far cannot find anything. Even chatted on VIATOR and they had no idea except to have a shuttle pick us up at the ship. Take us directly to the hotel. Put luggage in storage, then find a tour or maybe hop on hop off.
Still working on it.

Jim,
June and I saw a travel show recently that featured Hamburg. One of the things mentioned on the show was a harbor cruise. From what June and I saw that looked like another option to the hop on hop off.
As you may recall June and I are booked and doing a back to back, going on to Lisbon from Hamburg. We thought we might do the harbor cruise while in the port for the turnover.
See you and Jan in August. Lookin forward to a great cruise with super cruise friends.
Ralph

Looks like Jeff, Helen, Jan & I are trying to figure out how to get from the ship to our hotel when we disembark September 2nd in Hamburg.
Hampton Inn & Suites is a couple of blocks from "old town" so plan on going there after checking in or storing our luggage.
September 3rd Miniature Museum is a must then also plan on HOHO bus & boat tour.
September 4th Jan and I have shuttle arrangements to Hamburg Airport for 11 am flight Jeff & Helen have a late afternoon flight so did their own.
Have not heard what Tim & Miriam have planned. They are slightly busy right now with February wedding plans.
