Archipelago

This was the cruise that I would have disembarked yesterday . So I guess there was a silver lining to the Blacklane debacle .

20 months away for cruise btw

Can Club Orange be booked when booking a cruise ?

Sounds good ! I am someone who likes to socialize and will join in the fun . The voyage I am looking at though does not have a good Single Supplement but it is a voyage that I like regardless .

Okay great ! I dress nice and just want to fit in !

Do solo passengers have a cocktail hour on voyages ? Are there are hosted tables etc. ? How is it as a Solo passenger on Regent ? Seabourn has hosted tables and Silversea has a cocktail hour that is popular if there are a group of solo passengers on board . Inquiring minds want to know . 😊

So are polo shirts with a sweater okay on an Antarctic cruise for most nights ? Don't mind a coat and tie for formal optional . Just wondering about polo and sweaters . I like that combo but do not want to be turned away or shunned.

Okay good that gives me a reference . I would just wear a dress shirt and jacket every night as I have done on Silversea .I dont wear the loose shirts ....Just wear the polo during the day then .

Are polo type knit shirts okay ? A nice polo shirt and slacks with dress shoes ?

Looking at OOsterdam for Antarctica ,,With the elite beverage package can you order a bottle of wine for your dining table to be used ? If not is there a discount with the elite ? It is being included with bookings . If not I guess a glass of wine would be okay ? Don't know how it works . Was on Amsterdam years ago but no package then. Thanks!

Barbara was great ! She helped me with our failed Shadow cruise. She was personable , humorous , and she valued SS guests. She exemplified the very best that was the Silversea brand. I called her "Babs" . Very interested to see where she goes . Thank You for everything Babs !!!!

Okay sounds good .. I have just had one voyage so not much to compare . I did meet some great guests on the hosted tables . The food was really good too ! Thank You for your responses !

I have traveled Seabourn before but it has been a while . I am asking the solo travelers if Seabourn has a solo cocktail hour in addition to hosted tables ? I liked the hosted tables a lot but that does not help with meeting other solo travelers to have a great time with . Thank You for your responses here . I am a former Silversea guest that is ready for a change .

Well ...Door to Door is "At your own risk ' I had a 22 day Antarctica with 3 day Buenos Aires and business class flights booked and also 18 day Los Angeles to Fort Lauderdale booked . I cancelled them both . If Blacklane is unreliable Barbara Muckermann and her team need to know . This will hurt their business from loyal guests . I was planning a world cruise as well and will do it but will look elsewhere now . Thank You for your post and I hope others have a better experience with them than I have .

Silversea not Silverseas...
