Congrats my friend at turning D+!!! 🙂

Ooooh...I love that 3 hour thing....though half of the calories I am consuming there....is actually of the liquid libation thing. 😄 😄

He does look happy though. 😄 😄

And when there is a lack of toilet paper.....

Aww...thanks! 🤗 Funny....but no. I was posting my experience of simply hopping a flight to get to Sydney to board Venus for the circumnavigation of Australia in a few months. Then hop off for an overnight to connect to Orion to tour NZ. Flying back from Auckland after that. I have just returned from a World cruise doing the Chilean Fjords and Antarctica, circumnavigating all of South America. Wonderful trip. 🙂 Ushuaia, was one of my favorite ports.

I very often will cash the rest out to add to our additional cash tips, over the already prepaid tips.

From the Surety Company. Two different names, Hornblower and Argo.

LOL...I love that song! Thanks for the smiles! 😉

Agree. It really is terrible we have to go through all of this, when it should just be automatic that they refund our money. So sorry I ever booked this this company. They were a PITA from the very beginning. 😡

Indeed. The Viking Crown Lounge itself is our "go to" lounge for happy hour. Even though we had access to the separate Concierge Lounge on EX...we preferred to sit at the VCL bar. 😉

The points to upgrade...IMHO...was a total waste when I tried it. I am now keeping to just using them for OBC, which I happily love to use. 🙂

What? They didn't give you the bubbly??? Shame on them. We gave ours to our waiter. 😄 The stratum (once engraved), pins, tags, etc. kit will arrive much later. Took 6 months to get ours! Then the pins were wrong. 😏 Plus pretty banged up since they had been bouncing around in the box not being secured. LA on EX insisted she have them replaced, which they were quite quickly. Enjoy your new status and welcome to the club!! 🤗

We were shocked as well on the Radiance Alaska B2B some years ago. We had just over 350 points and were #2 cruisers! 😮 Really nice dinner in Chops with the solo Pinnacle (#1) and the couple with just under 350 points (#3) with the LA, the F&B, and the HD. Great time...sigh...though obviously ...sadly....that dinner set up is also a thing of the past. 😞

The same with us...but you were recognized then...like we were. Still have the photo from the Ceremony on my "cruise corner" cabinet along with the engraved stratum (now 2 and about to be 3). 😉

We were recognized at the Upper Tier on Harmony. Got the picture with Captain and LA, holding the "stratum to be" example, and the cheap bottle of bubbly! Was at the Aqua Theater on that ship. I think most of the Oasis class ships hold it there..if not all. The LA contacted us ahead of time to be sure we were going to be at the event
