Dominik,

See the interior of a LUX cabin on Blue Star 2 on this clip:

 

Hi Nicksy58,

thank you for the video link which I've seen already but this LUX cabin has no double bed - I will give it a try and report here if it will have a window or not

[Queries in English for our non-Greek speaking members.]

Hello,

has anyone sailed on Blue Star 2 in a LUX cabin?

I am interested in the "2 bed cabin Deluxe (double bed) - Category L2DB2" but in their booking system it's marked as "cabin without window"? - Could this be the case a LUX cabin without a window?

I've contacted Attica Helpdesk but so far did not get a reply ...

Thank you,
Dominik

Hello,

are there any news/assumptions about possible summer routes from Piraeus to Samos (Karlovassi/Vathy) from Blue Star Ferries (apart the ones from Ariadne)?

Thank you,
Dominik

@George...f & @Champion Jet_2 Thank you for your replies - so far Golden Star does not reply ... really frustrating as it seems they do not want to refund...

Kind regards,
Dominik

Hello, does anyone might have heard an update if Superrunner will operate this summer? I have a reservation for 2nd of August from Heraklio to Naxos (according to their booking system now all schedules are canceled) but Golden Star Ferries do not want to refund my money.

I've sent them two Emails (no reply) and also called them by phone but they told me to wait, which is no option for me due to limited connections (only Seajet).

Kind regards,
Dominik

Hello,

Does anyone of you know when Blue Star Ferries will publish all their summer timetables?

They have removed the online pages with their timetables (like Hellenic Seaways last year) and so far they only replied that timetables will be published "very soon"....

I am interested in the routes from Naxos to Astypalea....

Thank you,
Dominik

Hello fellow cruisers,

I was wondering if anyhone has news about Vitzentzos Kornaros - I would like to book a trip for July but it's still not possible. Even June is not open.

Thank you,

There is nothing official yet, but 17/6 is rather... ambitious

 

Thank you very much for your answer!

[Queries in English for our non-Greek speaking members.]

Hi all,

 

Does anyone of you know if the published timetable for Nissos Samos (Start at 17/6) is realistic? It seems there is still a lot of work necessary...

 

Moreover, HSW has pubslished the timetable for Lavrio - Limnos - Kavala route with Express Pegasus during July-August. Two of the 4 departures per week are not open for bookings yet. Does anyone know what the reason could be?

Thank you,
Dominik

[Hellenic Seaways]

Thanosp, thank you very much for your swift reply

 

Hopefully they will update their website soon.

Kind regards,
Dominik

[Hellenic Seaways]

Kalispera,

Thank you,

Hello,

 

Does anybody know why Kriti I is taking over Elyros timetable to Chania instead of El Venizelos?

Has she a problem?

 

Thank you,
Dominik

[Queries in English for our non-Greek speaking members.]

Thank you very much - I'll keep my fingers crossed to see her back during summer on the Crete route

Kind regards,
Dominik

[Queries in English for our non-Greek speaking members.]

Hi all,

 

Does anybody have news regarding the charter of Elyros to Algerie Ferries? Will El Venizelos replace her on the Piraeus - Chania route?
 

Thank you,
Dominik

[Minoan Lines]

You can find the timetable for the winter period on:

http://www.exposa.de/faehrpreislisten/minoan-winterfahrplan-09-10.pdf

it is from a german website. Minoan will use from 01.11 - 06.01 only one ship on the venice line.

It is said that Cruise Europa will not offer Camping on Board, which mean not an advantage for Minoan Lines. Many people from Germany or Austria (traveling with a caravan) will probably book Anek or Superfast.

[Cruise Europa (IMO 9351490)]

Yassas,

The Cruise Europa is listed in the booking engine from openseas.

Tomorrow the Europa Palace will go to Venice and the Cruise Europa will leave Patras on 15.10 at 17:00.

On Minoan's Website there is a picture at the top of the site.

Hello,

The German automobile club "ADAC" made this year a test of greek ferries.

They tested:

- Ionian King

- Sophocles V

- Theologos P

- Lato

- Theofilos

- Superferry II

- Prevelis

- Mytilene

- Aqua Jewel

- Vitsentzos Kornaros

- Penelope A

- Phivos

- Nefeli

- Sardinia Vera

The winner of the test was the Ionian King which good the best mark, the worst was the Sardinia Vera.

Here you can find the german website: if you need help to translate, feel free to ask me

Kali Spera,

Thank you for the comment to my question. I am really suprised about this mistake of the booking system.

I have another question:

Today I checked the Endeavor Lines Website and I noticed that on the timetables the Erotokritos T. will arrive at the port of Igoumenista at 2:00 but the disembarkation is at 6:00.

Does anybody know of what reason?

Best wishes,

Dominik

[Queries in English for our non-Greek speaking members.]

Hello,

Is it possible that Minoan Lines offer a "new" line from Ancona to Corfu?

Because i checked openseas.gr and found that for on 20/7/09 Olympia Palace will call at the port of Corfu and then she will go to Igoumenitsa and after that to Patras. This is also listed in Minoan Lines Booking Engine, but it is not possible to book.

On 21/7/09 she will also call at Corfu at 01:00 and will then go to Ancona. Europa Palace will also call at the port of Corfu.

So what could that mean?

Best regards,

Dominik
