Free Bergen cruise 14th Nov for 2

Options
Hi there

I posted this once on the original thread but had no interest apart from one person who then had to withdraw.

I've booked a 3 night cruise to Bergen departing newcastle on 14th Nov. I cannot go now so if you want a double bedded room with sea view pm me and someone will get it. I was tempted to try ebay but thought I would not have got it without MSE so I should put it back to the site for some lucky persons.

As far as I can tell there is no charge for name change but if that info is wrong I would expect the person to agree to pay any charges incurred.

No meals have been booked but I guess you may be able to still book in advance or when you board.

This is not first come first served as I want to give a few peeps the chance to get it but pm have to be with me by lunchtime 11th

no refunds for poor weather or sea sickness mind

    not for me but a lovely gesture.
    Every day above ground is a good one ;)
  • best pack a raincoat though, sure when I went on a cruise there they said it rains for 300 days of the year!

    Lovely offer.
  • I wish we could go.

    To anyone interested I did this crossing about 15 years ago. It was brill. The views are brill. They used to call it the love boat due to the number of drunk Norwegians carrying on like there is no tomorrow. The drinks although expensive to us were like freebies to them.

    This is not a cheap trip by any means. If anyone can take up this generous offer then they should.

    If you try to book this now it is about £340.

    Nice one for someone.
