A great experience!

Embarkation:

The cruise line had placed signals through out the city, no risk of getting lost! We found the parking lot and paid about 55 dollars for parking in a gated and supervised parking lot. A great deal for parking in Stockholm! We loaded our luggage on a bus and was shipped of to the terminal. The baggage tagging procedure was really bad, we got a few tags, but no pen and was left to figure out ourselves how to procedure. Getting in to the crowded terminal we got in line in the VIP line. When greeted they told us that we have to have copies made of our passport for our visit in Russia. That have never been mentioned before, in that case I would have prepared for that. The lady pointed at a line long as a marathon run and asked us to make our copies. I found a lady working the line and asked if there was a VIP line for us there to, and the girl, bless her made our copies right away. Back off to the check in and finally, we got our cabin keys and could walk on board.

Cabin Review

Cabin FS

Our cabin was excellent! Missed hooks and hangers and maybe a shoe rack for our hall though. Lovely balcony but people abouve us could look right down at us! Nice bathrooms but cheap soap! Comfy beds and lovely towel animals delivered to our beds every night! It would have been nice with a bottle champagne as a welcome, the friut platter we got was a bit manky looking to be honest. We never figured out how to use the entertainement set though! Great closet space!
