This is my first Princess cruise, having previously cruised with Carnival 7 times.

We arrived at BWI on Sunday, May 9th around 10:00am for our 1:23pm flight to Atlanta and then to Copenhagen. I tried to check in on line the day before, but received a red flashing notice across my computer screen saying that I needed a visa. WHAT???? I called Delta and the first person I spoke to said that I did not need a visa, but he would transfer me to the international desk to confirm, and after talking to the young lady there, she said that I needed a visa. I am leaving the next day, how on earth would I be able to get a visa. I am getting very worried at this time. I told her that was not so, only visits over 90 days required a visa, and after having me on hold for a long time, she finally said that it was not necessary and that Delta did not specify in their data base how many days required a visa. I needed a stiff drink after that, I can tell you. She said that she would make a note in my records, and she did because I was able to check in the next day with no problems. I was also charged $50.00 for excess baggage and not $55.00 since I was unable to check in on line.

Our plane in Atlanta was supposed to depart at 6:15pm, but did not leave until 7:45pm, and after a 10 hour flight, we arrived in Copenhagen around 9:25am on Monday. Read more
