Chickvic Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I don't know what to say! Glad the cruise was good just a shame about the end of it. Hope it gets sorted quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebird Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 How distressing for you. My mum has been on umpteen cruises and has never had her luggage go overboard. In fact I'm taking my mum on a cruise 'up the Fjords' next year so I must remember to bring my snorkel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Gosh what a nightmare, I fail to see how they managed to do that I do have to say though - there are forums for cruise goers????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 What a shame . I suppose it's something that it happened on the way home and not the way out . Hope you get proper compensation . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jules. Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 I've had a phone call from Fred Olsen & they asked me to send them a list of what was in my suitcase & the amount lost I've also asked them to consider what they think all the hassle is worth to me is in pounds sterling Watch this space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura007 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 did you have a good time in norway?? iwent a few yers ago and loved it, i got mistaken for a norwiegen a good few times, long blonde hair a blue eyes. i think the give away that i wasnt a local was when i stood there with a completely blank look on my face when they started talking to me in norwiegen!! beautiful place to go in summer, plenty of day light. such a shame about the end of your trip. hope it get sorted soon.

Jules. Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Norway was lovely, really peaceful & people-free It rained lots in the mornings! On our last port of call on Saturday we were at Zebrugge & caught the train to Bruges. I didn't like it there as it was so flat & full of cars & people. Here's a couple of photos of my suitcase.....I'd even tied my scarf around the handle to make it easy to find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
