Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. My wife & I always take a walk throughout the ship, checking everything out even though this will be our 4th time on an R-Class ship. We always take a walk through the casino taking note of what slot machines we will play on a few of the nights (wine in hand) after the evening show. Since this will be our 2nd Oceania cruise, we have some items we didn't experience the first time that we want to try this time: - Afternoon Tea - Breakfast in the MDR - A wine tasting
  2. Did they automatically send it after the cruise? Or did you have to go to the reception desk to request the refund?
  3. Our TA has contacted Oceania about the sale for our Regatta cruise in September. Our fare has now been reduced to match the sale. Our refundable OBC was reduced slightly, but we still came out quite a bit ahead.
  4. Thank you for the information. We will likely head there on embarkation day to see if there are any tables available for that night.
  5. Great information. Where is the reservation desk on the R-Class ships?
  6. We are booked on the same cruise in September. The itinerary looks fun. We are in an aft A1 Concierge. We previously cruised with Celebrity on the S class ships & had a great time. After trying Azamara & more recently Oceania we won't be going back. We love the R class ships.
  7. Has this policy changed? For my previous Oceania cruise on the Insignia 15 months ago, we had to wait until we were onboard before we could upgrade the drink package.
  8. We are currently on Insignia and very much enjoying the food and service. Definitely a step up from our other cruises on the likes of Azamara (which we enjoyed). Toscana was not to my liking 2 nights ago, but I look forward to trying it again. The lamb curry in the Terrace Cafe was fantastic last night. We have witnessed a certain gentleman complaining multiple times about the food and service. His wife seems embarrassed each time. It seems that some people just like to complain.
  9. I'm glad Robjame asked these questions. This is good education for our first O cruise on Insignia that boards this Saturday. I would have assumed that we couldn't have wine delivered with our room service lunch. On our Azamara cruises I have had to run to a bar with our 2 cards to bring glasses of wine back to the room. Is alcohol included as options when ordering room service using the interactive TV? We will also have the prestige package.
  10. The concierge at our hotel said there are locations throughout Manhattan by a company called LabQ. They do not require an appointment & bill your health insurance. You are not responsible for any amount your insurance does not pay. We plan on using them for an antigen test in early September before our cruise. https://labq.com/covid/
  11. I just completed our online check-in this past Saturday for our upcoming cruise on September 10th. Times beginning at 11:00 AM were available in half hour increments. We are in an A1 Concierge cabin.
  12. Since you are embarking in the U.S. I don't believe you will need to provide a negative Covid test at embarkation. If you were embarking in Canada, or if your cruise was visiting Bermuda within 4 days you would have to provide a negative test result.
  13. That's an interesting observation regarding the O class vs. R class ships. September will be our first Oceania cruise, and we plan on eating dinner at least once in the Terrace Cafe on Insignia. Our comparison as far as food quality will be with the Azamara R class ships. We have had some very good dinner buffets on Azamara, especially their Indian themed night.
  14. Good to know for our cruise in September.
