a la carte menu (fantastic) which we could indulge in for a few euros extra - 50 euros extra, as it turned out :-(
6. Late Check Out come on, we've spent over £2k with you, can't we just have our room for a few tiny extra hours to change out of our swim wear?? Nope. Late check out charge: 55 euros
7. Thomson Day Trips We decided to treat ourselves to a catamaran trip, which was described as a 'VIP champagne catamaran cruise'. Hmmm, not sure how Victoria Beckham would have got on with this one. The catamaran nets were out of bounds for maintenance! So no sunbathing on the nets, VIP somehow included 32 people huddled onto hard plastic seats and not an awful lot of room to move around, given the 'out of bound nets'. The captain and skipper did not speak one word of English, and we stopped at a grotty beach for lunch ...

that they are the same company too. I wasn't too impressed on the outward flight at the lack of professionalism of the staff. But we got to our destination in one piece.

But the rep called Stuart was great and gave us a few pointers of what to expect, all about the weather and on our way we passed Universal and he pointed out the rollercoasters. He also told us what to expect when we arrived at the hotel and about our welcome meetings. There were 2 hotels on the bus and we were the first drop off.
Inside the hotel was ...

Thomson Destiny -Tropical Transatlantic Dec 2008
We booked this cruise in October 2007 and obtained an all inclusive deal as our last cruise cost us an extra £600 pound, mainly in drinks costs! We had previously cruised with Thompson last year on the Celebration and think that I actually prefer the layout of the smaller sister ship for a number of reasons, which I will probably touch on later in the review.
The early flight from Manchester to Lisbon was on time and uneventful but on arrival at Lisbon I could only describe organised chaos. In all 5 flights had arrived from the UK with cruise passengers and all landed within a very short space of time and due to a malfunction of the baggage handling system, all the luggage arrived for all the planes at the same time, which had a knock on effect on the rest of the usual embarkation ...
