Sis, thank you again for all your hard work. I know what a job it is to switch a group and you and HAL did a remarkable job. :clap: :clap:

Glo, thanks for your mini review of our next cruise. We can't wait! :doubleup:

Now all we have to do is get our flights changed. Hopefully, we'll be able to get the same flights, just two weeks sooner. And hopefully, they'll cost the same mileage or we're going to have to start selling things to buy more miles!

Would anyone like to buy a slightly used built-in stove and oven?

I managed to get our air moved this afternoon after several calls. We had booked with Priceline, so I had to pay the airline change plus the $30/pp Priceline change, so I hope Holland America will refund the $429 change fees or add it as a shipbard credit. At least the airfare was the same! I might have to rent Bandit and Cocoa out as "on call" squirrel exterminators. They do good work, as evidenced by another "gift" for me this morning. Sooooo I guess we'll be QUACKING two weeks earlier.

How do we edit our countdown clock to reflest the new dates?

Jacquie - please keep all those airline/Priceline receipts while we handle Step 2 of the moveover.

Sis and Lisa - thank you very much for your kind comments. They're very much appreciated.

Glo - I also thank you for your detailed comments on your Amsterdam cruise!

I'm contacting our dear Elves for help with the countdown clock.

Keeping receipts and everything else I think we might need! I'll have to say, Priceline Customer Service was much easier to work with than I had imagined. They even had lower airfares than the airlines themselves right now and there was no airfare increase. The only inconvenience was that our return flight was later than the one I had booked, but not horrible.

Glad everything work out for all of you

 

[ShipMaven]

Thank you, Jeanie. It took the good will of the Group and of HAL to allow this to come together so quickly. As I remarked a number of times previously, moving an entire group is not a simple matter. But it happily all turned out in the end.

:spyglass:Change your Cruise Tracker Entries :spyglass:


​

If you want to update your Cruise Tracker entry for this cruise, go first to "Your Cruise Tracker Entries" and delete the July 13th cruise. Then go to the proper place in the Cruise Tracker and enter the June 29, 2012 cruise details. Done!

I hope to have Elfen help to amend our Duck Crew countdown clock within a week.

 

[Charles]

done, and thanks for the directions.

Thank you to the Elf who very kindly modified the Title of this thread after the date of our cruise changed. Much appreciated. :cheer:

 

[JacquieP]

Could the elf please delete my old Cruise tracker entry of July 13, or tell me what I'm doing/not doing right? It won't go away for me!

 

[ShipMaven]

Jacquie - did you follow my instructions above to go to "Your Cruise Tracker Entries" to delete the July 13th cruise?

 

[JacquieP]

Yes, I did, but it didn't want to go away. Wait, wait, a completely different box popped up this time, and it worked. I don't knw why I didn't get it last night. Too tired, probably.

 

[ShipMaven]

**THANK YOU** to whichever Elf changed our Duck Crew countdown clock to reflect our June 29th departure. It's very much appreciated.

Woooo Hoooo! We've got our flights for Seattle for the new dates. We're flying out on Wednesday, 6/27 and flying home Saturday, 7/14.

It cost 20,000 more points. We had to transfer miles from Mal's to mine, plus pay change fees, but at least we got the same times. :doubleup: :doubleup:
