Today I received an E-mail from a TA saying that the prices of category 10 and 11 cabin had go up because they have balconies .
I suppose they have the same add-on balconies as the NCL sistership.
Anyone more info?

Got the same mail.

Departing from Savona on 14 or 25 February.

Two for one!!!

The first person pays the brochure price, starting at EUR 1.370,-- for an inside (EUR 1.770,-- for an outside), the second person pays only porttaxes of EUR 120,-- (prices are cruise only!).

Regards,

From Lloyd Werft's press release

quote:
Cruise & Ferry Info Dec 2003
Costa Victoria back in Bremerhaven
Lloyd-Werft Bremerhaven has won the contract to undertake major modifications at the Costa cruise ship COSTA VICTORIA. The ship will leave her base port of Savona an January 6 for a 30-days visit to Lloyd-Werft where 242 balcony cabins and four suites will be added on decks 9 and 10. COSTA VICTORIA was jointly built and fitted out by Bremer Vulkan shipyard in Bremen and Lloyd-Werft Bremerhaven in 1996.

So it looks like work is already done!

No, not completed or even started yet. I believe VICTORIA is on her way to Germany now. Currently, according to her webcam, she is off the coast of Vigo Spain.

Quite a coincidence: I saw Costa Victoria today on her way to Bremerhaven. I was on a KLM flight from London to Amsterdam. When I looked out of the window about halfway the flight there she was!

Great sight... Unfortunately she was too far away to snap any decent pictures.
