Really do not know where to start with this one ?.
The initial Cruise was book to depart from Tilbury on the 16th February 2017 for 15 Nights in the Land of the Northern Lights (P704).....................however, the Departure port with then changed to Bristol Avonmouth and the Cruise brought forward to depart on the 13th February 2017. We booked this Cruise with CMV because we live in Kent and Tilbury is around 40 miles from us.............excellent departure port. Now it begins to fall apart. We are travelling with my totally disabled Mother In Law whom is wheelchair bound, so we have booked a disabled taxi ti get us from Herne Bay Kent to Tilbury Cruise terminal at a cost of £50 return journey.
We now have to contact the taxi Company and tell them that we now need to get to Bristol Avonmouth some 200 miles from our home address and this is now going to cost us an extra £500 on top of our Cruise costs to get to Bristol Avonmouth, is that fair ?. I spoke with CMV and explained the situation regarding the extra mileage and costs and where they interested....................NOT REMOTELY !!!!, and refused to even assist with any help regarding the cost of the taxi fare, nothing at all, so now I have the Cruise to pay for plus an additional £500 taxi fare on top of that. CMV were not interested at all, they have your money for the Cruise, why should they worry, they have Got You !!!!. Eventually, after many long and protracted telephone conversations, they did concede to pay part of the taxi fare, well, no they didn't, they offer to pay us £75.00 towards the taxi fare, but this would be paid as 'Onboard' spend to my cabin. THIS NEVER HAPPENED, they got away with not paying anything. This really is a rubbish Company.
Terrible, dark and dingy, antiquated fixtures and fitting, uncomfortable small beds
