  1. Remind me not to stand downwind of you.
  2. As AK mentioned above, there are many people on this forum that claim exactly that.
  3. This would be best put on your Roll Call. I guess you're assuming anyone that needs to know will know what ship this is on.
  4. It does happen all the time with Travel Agents. As reported for people that have the right connections, or are staying in one of the top rooms can tend to make it happen.
  5. My experience has not been like others are saying here. I generally always try to get an early reservation, usually 6:30, we generally show up by 6:25 and are seated by 6:32 or so. I just don't see these long lines, or at best it's a 5 minute wait.
  6. Couldn't be me, I'm more a rum and whiskey guy. đź« 
  7. Exactly, I ran in to this situation on my most recently booked cruise. The two segments were already on sale, but the combined one wasn't. I wanted to get two credits out of it anyway, so it worked for me. I have one booking number, 2 Cruise ID numbers. I have double Oceania Club credits, $500 each segment as well as $250 SBC per segment for booking onboard. The real bonus though is that I get TWO bottles of that delicious Oceania Club wine, one for each segment.
  8. But how did it compare to Regent?
  9. Are you familiar with the Roll Call section of cruise critic?
  10. The only people I ever publicly correct are those at Terrace that try to serve themselves. I always tell them, "They'll get that for you". Fortunately my wife is generally not with me as she would crawl under the table when I do stuff like this.
  11. I was on Regatta last Sept with Jan and for the life of me I don't remember Carson Turner. Or maybe it was 22, not 23. At any rate whenever it was the CD was Leslie Jon.
  12. I've cruised with English John before, I think his last name is Clelford, or something like that. I do hope he's done at the end of this cruise. I'd almost rather have Dottie. When we last cruised with him he had a tendency to have the speaker system turned up so loud it would literally knock you out of your seat when he did the announcements. Oddly enough I have never, in 15 years of cruising on Oceania, not seen the CD run the daily Trivia team games. Including when I cruised with him before. I'm wondering if maybe he might have something and not be able to interact up close with the public.
  13. I was actually asking Traveling Gert which one they were talking about. For people new to Oceania they don't realize the difference in rooms and bathrooms between the R ships and the newer ones. All of the noise in this post about the small bathrooms and showers are moot points unless you're going on an R ship. That's why I keep asking people which ship. After reading your first post I would say you might want to consider how much you might want to eat in the room. The Concierge cat really doesn't have an acceptable place for eating, where the PH will.
