  1. I do not believe so I have seen other post that they took more tours than their spouse in the same cabin Best to check with O just in case
  2. it can still be nice in Sept/Oct in the Maritimes Check the weather from previous yrs to get an idea & pack layers along with a rain jacket https://www.accuweather.com/en/ca/halifax/b3l/september-weather/49538?year=2021
  3. What is the departure port? I am only seeing Amsterdam as embarkation port for Oct
  4. You might ask on the West coast forum https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/315-west-coast-departures/ There are day use rooms at some hotels you check in early morning & the kids could use the pool etc...
  5. Yes the Brazillian farce Other lines also have pianists & piano players that are very good Is that what Luxury is? 🤔 The one thing we did like was the coffee place you could get something to eat when dinner was not that good we often had some snacks after dinner & before the show
  6. https://www.oceaniacruises.com/value scroll down to Shore Excursion packages Lots of discussions on the forum about the deal
  7. Where do you want to sail to? What ports are of interest to you ? Any of them are good if the weather is good The Montreal to Miami may be cold in the Northern ports in November
  8. When we did Scenic river cruise they had restriction of 1 suitcase & one carryon PP it was in the fine print You had to be able to store them in your cabin that is probably why they have restriction ..river boats do not usually have extra space for storing suitcases like ocean ships Even then I think most cruise lines limit the luggage to 200lbs I manage with 1 26" bag each & 1 carry on YMMV
  9. Many people just get used to what the line offers & do not want to see any changes I guess I am just not sure what luxury is ??
  10. I did not find Crystal to be luxury no classic cocktails in the included drinks, do not ask the bar staf to make one unless it is alcohol with a mixer they do not know how evening buffet closed ... the farce of the meat buffet was just annoying You sit there waiting for the skewers of meat to come around to the table that is not luxury Luxury?? What is Luxury anyway?

    wifi

    Better stick with Viking then I would not book a cruise just for the WiFi You can use more than one device at time you just need to pay the 2nd account
  12. Do you get OBC just for booking a cruise or is it a loyalty OBC/promo ? We did get $100 OBC from AQSC for our first booking but that was the only time
  13. They may or may not increase The wording has been used before & some cruises do increase but some just stay the same If you see something you like book it & it no increase then cancel if you are not sure you really want to go As long as you are not in the penalty period for that sailing
  14. maybe contact them they might be able to have transportation waiting for you
  15. If you are not happy with your Butler talk to the GM or the Head Concierge They are trained the same way but human nature not all people will do their job the same way I have read that people get their butlers replaced If you do not report a problem it will not be fixed JMO
  16. So they should 🙄 Only so many reservations are booked at specific times so if you change your mind please cancel & let others on the wait list dine in the specialties
  17. I do not believe it can be used in the casino but we always use cash (so I can control my donations) Also cannot be used for deposits for future cruises You can use it for upgrades to the Prestige package or other alcoholic drinks not covered by the House select 0 Life deal
  18. I always ask what new shoes he has this trip LOL Some are quite humourous
  19. Depends on the port but usually taking a taxi , Uber or private car service is cheaper than the bus & you have to wait for the bus to fill up before it departs
  20. Why was he standing in the room ??
  21. Peter Roberts He usually has about 80 prs of shoes plus some funky outfits LOL They had a video of behind the scenes & showed his cabin for his shoes & outfits
  22. I think when we did the private tour we were there 2-3 hrs we did stop for lunch in one of the restaurants there some went to the top so it may have been a little more than 3 hrs We also went to Dinan & spent an hour or so there
  23. I am not sure if the cruises are still capacity controlled still due to post/current covid The Ultimate O life deal is sort of new they did have the same deal on some sailings pre covid for usually South America maybe due to lack of participation on those itineraries ..not sure If the itinerary appeals to you then I would book it & the price is right for you JMO
  24. You can see if your TA offers any OBC as an incentive I have not seen O offer any unless you have had an issue onboard
