Kids are welcome on all Regent cruises and the standard additional charge to put them in the parent's cabin is pretty negligible. This is more marketing than a big savings.
-
When things, and people, get older they are weaker and more prone to failure. I am certain this is a planned repair in the future but, for now, the issue has been solved.
-
Agreed...they are not sisters.
-
True - the shipyards are different but the toilet systems are very similar and Regent doesn't have a history of skimping on maintenance. Its like getting hot water tank from different plumbers - the systems they use can all be the same. The shipyard does not make all the parts installed in a ship....they build (assemble) the ship and source most parts/subsystems from 3rd parties.
-
Manufacturer's maintenance schedule is followed and Voyager isn't having the issue. When a system is mis-treated, it places additional stress on the system.
-
They are 23 years old - seals dry out over time. Mariner is in for a few nice upgrades next year and there might just be a surprise or two coming this WC as well. I am in NO way affiliated with Regent.
-
But I could be wrong! 😉
-
I know that the WL is not always first come-first serve...but I have never heard of the person releasing an actual position on the WL simply because it can change.
-
You might be surprised. Regent is aggressively making offers to booked guests on cruises that have deep waitlists in order to sell more cabins on other cruises.
-
It absolutely was blocked by a person who flushed an article of clothing to "hide" it. This blocked the system and caused the rupture of other seals which had to be identified and replaced.
-
In $5,000,000 worth of bookings, I have never had Regent admit what position a person is on the WL. Only 1 person runs the list and they will not discuss it. This news is very interesting - perhaps policy has changed.

Voyager - Rio to BA - Norovirus and Covid

Sorry, I do not know as we buy Allianz - cheaper and better coverage. I am sure there is a customer contact number in your paperwork. -

No...but yours should. -

I believe it was lifted... -

These systems tend to work better when guests don't flush articles that should be disposed of in a garbage can.
-
They will be available on the 13th, I believe.
-
All cruise lines miss ports due to weather. I've never seen Regent do it more than any other.
-
They had to reroute around the Red Sea and the Suez Canal...takes time to go around Africa.
-
You are not going through Suez but rather around Africa.
-
Navigator was in a soft drydock recently. Also, Regent will share the dates with you if you ask.
-
Mariner should be Nov 4 to Nov 25 and Voyager is just behind her on or about November 27 to Dec 21....this is 2025.
-
It was absolutely the guest's fault but having 23 year old plumbing didn't help. There are a number of surprises in store for Mariner including staffing changes, itinerary changes (coming very soon) and huge plans for her drydock next year.
-
It is installed but they are waiting for the current provider contract to expire before turning it on.
-
Sorry if you don't agree but not only was I told what the cause was, it was also told to the guests on board as well as having a special message in Passages addressing it.
