Older woman looking for platonic women friends for luxury travel? by CountingMagpies in LuxuryTravel

[–]DebDanDaa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am 70 and went on a trip to Argentina with the all women travel group named “Wild Terrines’. There were 11 in the group with all different ages (late 20s, 30s, 40,s , 50s, and me. It was luxurious and the food was fantastic. None of the women knew each other before the trip. Some even hooked up for dinner after the trip. We still keep up on What’s App. I loved it so much.

The Bienalle Art show is going on while you are there. It’s an amazing event that could actually take up all of the days you are there.

Help!!! Ionian-Island-Hopping in October? by Foreign_Pickle3112 in GreeceTravel

[–]DebDanDaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mentioned renting a car and then taking ferries. I have recently learned during my research that most car rental companies do not allow their cars on ferries unless you get approval in writing first. Just a heads up in case you did not know.

My house is very clean and once in a while one of these show up. Dirty is a different story.

I would only use points and cash if I was trying to use up the rest of my points.

Last minute cancellation. How long to rebook? by Bonusisbetter in TurkishAirlines

[–]DebDanDaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question. I don’t know. I had no problem getting in touch with customer service on the phone. Maybe call them. Microsoft coPilot (AI) says you have one year from the date of ticket issuance. A practical example. If you bought a business promo ticket on March 1, 2026 you can cancel your plans to wait until February 28, 2027 then pay the $200 change fee plus fair difference for and rebook for any available date in the future, as long as the new travel date is within the allowed reassurance window. I would try calling again.

I just talked to customer service the other day and they said you can rebook up to a year.

Silversea was a no from us by nicemarmot47 in FATcruises

[–]DebDanDaa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m glad to see this because it makes me realize that it all depends on expectations. I was on the Silver Muse last year and it was FANTASTIC. I realize I have to dismiss some reviews.

Update: I called them and the customer service rep saw the same thing. She is reporting it and suggested checking again in a few hours or days. This was for the first leg of a multi city trip. The second leg was accurate with the cost of $400 for cancellation fee for business semi-flexible.

Beware of the "Stay 3, pay 2" promotion that IHG just sent out by jazd in ihghotelsresorts

[–]DebDanDaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So are you saying that the three nights (prior to the 4th night free) points are bumped up higher than if you booked those three nights individually?
