15 DAY TRANS-ATLANTIC

This cruise was advertised as “Boston, Broadway and Bermuda” which caught my eye immediately. This year DH and I were celebrating our 50th Anniversary and we wanted to do something unique for us. Never having been to London, NYC, or Bermuda, it was an opportunity to check these places off of our bucket list. Family issues held us back from booking early. When we finally called our trusty TA Donna in early July, we were concerned about where our cabin would be located. Thinking about booking a 2A, she was able to get us a one category upgrade for being Select members as well as a discount. Somehow we ended up with a 1-A, cabin 7264 on the hump with a larger balcony, my dream come true.

We decided to fly into London 2 days early so we would see the sights. United had a direct flight from Chicago to London and Donna was able to use Custom Air through Celebrity for a great price. We upgraded to Economy Plus for more leg room and a roomier seat. The plane was configured 2-3-2 and Donna reserved 2 seats with a window. Donna felt that leaving at 10 PM would make it easier to sleep on the plane. Arriving around 11 AM, she felt we might be able to check into our room earlier. Read more
