It’s probably because Encore has no passengers onboard as it’s relocating around Africa, no guests no need to publish daily menus,

Only a few items change daily, not the whole menu.

The Solis menus are posted daily on Source along with the other restaurant menus.. Log onto your booking and you can explore all the menus for that day.

Our last few cruises have been on the Encore. However as our Dubai cruise has been cancelled we are now on the Quest from Barcelona. We are looking forward to being on the smaller ships again. The only drawback that I see is that we don’t have the benefit of dining outside in Solis. The advantages are that the top deck is for all guests, unlike the Retreat and padded sun loungers .

That info was referring to BA.

You can always book business class seats on European flights at no cost, If its long haul they charge unless you are a certain status, not sure if it’s gold or platinum now, you pay until 24 hours beforehand. Be aware that seats paid for in the event of cancellation, the money isn’t refundable.

Another suggestion is Jim Thompson House Museum. No need to take a tour, we took a boat along the canal/river and alighted right by his house. Google him and you will find his history, his influence on the silk trade and his eventual disappearance in the Cameron Highlands.

Hi Julie. We are on the quest from the 26 April so we will be able to comment then; It really appeals to me but Alf is more of a carnivore!! Update soon..

You book Solis under the TK section. It confirms on your itinerary as Solis.

They are not available until one month in advance, do you have an estimate of how long the tour lasts?

That’s my next thing to do, thank you.

Booked, thank you.

Thank you all for your suggestions. None of these hotels mentioned have come up in Booking.com search. We only need a hotel for one night, flying Madrid to Barcelona arriving 18.45. We are boarding The Quest the following day. Our must go to visit is the Sagrada Familia , we haven’t been for many years. i shall start looking at your suggestions.

Oh that’s great news, not that I really need it. I’m not often in the UK these days. How does the € to £ work out in the pricing? I spoke to Seabourn in Southampton yesterday, spoke to a lovely lady who booked Solis for me on our forthcoming cruise in April. Currently we cannot access our Seabourn account to book trips, spa or Solis, even though she could with our log in info. She couldn’t understand it, neither can we! We have tried all the normal routes of rebooting, closing down history etc, We have completed Guest Registration etc but then access stops. Next now we will email Seabourn Club. Happy sailing.

Any recommendations for an overnight stay?
