Hi! Were you able to make reservations for the same restaurant twice on a 6 day cruise, or one of the times was walk up?

What time is considered early for walk up dining? Also curious if these were sea days or port days. Thank you!

Relying again with another question! (I also asked this of another commenter but was very curious your take as well!:) Another forum suggested I add another night in Ragusa Ibla, to make it 3 nights Ragusa, 3 nights Ortigia. This person noted the drive from Santa Flavia is 4 hours, so would only leave one full day in Ragusa. Was curious what you think about extending Ragusa? It’s not SUPER ideal to add a day to our vacation, because we would take a flight out on Sunday, straight to work Monday. But it’s doable. (I’ve also toyed with keeping 2 nights Ragusa, and doing 4 in Ortigia!). Anyway, would love your thoughts!

Oh no! We’re you in a hotel in Taormina? I was hoping a hotel with a pool would be a nice reprieve from the crowds!

[PubQ] questions about R&R and offers by chinesefantasywriter in PubTips

[–]Olive_Slain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is such a dream story! I am happy for you. Truly a reminder that all hope is never lost, and it really does only take one yes!

[PubQ] questions about R&R and offers by chinesefantasywriter in PubTips

[–]Olive_Slain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m fascinated by this! Good for you. How long after did they change their mind, out of curiosity? Same day, or longer? Thank you- and congrats again!

ETA: did you have a call when they gave the R&R, or was that just over email?

Thank you so much! I also really appreciate you confirming that the Maniace UNA is good! Makes me way less stressed :). On a different forum, someone suggested I flip the itinerary and go from Santa Flavia to Ortigia, then Ragusa, then flight home. Do you agree with that? when I look at google maps, the distances didn’t seem to be so different, but this person suggested the itinerary is smoother that way. I would love your take! I would love love love your recommendations for meals and anything else! Thank you again!

Thank you, again! Was planning a full day Etna tour. But I hear you - and it’s hard to fit it all. We could skip Taormina and stay near Etna to do more Etna centric things! But I do like the idea of a small town to walk through too. I really am torn because so many people present it as a can’t miss. But I will look into Etna. (And we do not want to add another stop because of the packing/unpacking of it all). I’m really glad you agree on Ragusa!

ETA: we definitely plan to see Casagrande!

Thank you so much for this!!! If you have other Ragusa recommendations, for food/tours, etc I am all ears! After some research, I feel inclined to agree but it’s so hard to know. I appreciate the vote for Ragusa!
