  1. On the transatlantic crossing and that panel still hasn't been replaced yet (March 26, 2024).
  2. Has anyone had a hydrafacial done while on board?
  3. Currently and there are two hooks on the wall in the bathroom, not the bathroom door as it is sliding.
  4. Had the lobster thermidor and chateau brian tonight and the lobster dish was anything but the thermidor version and the beef was cut into very thin slices. Not impressed.
  5. Check the follow up message on tv. The flyer was delivered to our room last night. Guest relations didn't know anything about it when we checked this morning.
  6. Anyone know of more detailed info on the tapas tour that is being offered as part of the post excursion to Madrid?
  7. Has anyone taken the evening optional tapas tour in the post Madrid extension by Viking?
  8. While I believe in tipping for service given, personally don't think people should have to tip wine stewards on the side to get wines that they are holding back in reserve.
  9. Had the disaster of the New England clam chowder on the Star yesterday in the World Cafe. It was watery and definitely separated. Didn't eat it.
  10. Agree with your assessment. Probably will be looking at Regent or Silverseas as we don't really want to go to the trouble of carrying wines on board.
  11. Actually the ES1 cabin is a little larger than the ES2 while the ES1 balcony is smaller than the ES2
  12. Glad that someone got a decent one. Order ours medium rare and both times they came out well done. After that, just gave up and ate the veggies and bread.
  13. On the Star right now and the food is marginal at best. Lamb chops were so tuff that I couldn't cut them with a knife and the famous ribeye was probably between 1/8 and 1/4 quarter of an inch at most and vastly overcooked. Was expecting better.
  14. Purchased the silver spirits package expecting decent red wine by the glass. Big mistake. Not one California cab, took away the Australia cab by day three, the French Cote de rhone also now is missing. If we had known this up front, wouldn't have purchased the package and just bought decent wine by the bottle instead. Not interested in their house pours.
  15. Had the ribeye from Manfredi's in the restaurant the other night and it was horrible. Tuff and very thin, probably 1/4 of an inch at most. Chef told us they are cutting back on the size of the steak.
  16. Also did the bus tour and while the bus was cool; the driver was really hard to understand. Waste of time.
  17. Big feet and big legs. With so many men wearing nail polish today, who knows what they do with their feet.
  18. If they are trying to copy their grandkids fashion trends; then they are too old to do this. Also have seen people fully sprawled out on the seats in the lounge on the river cruises (with shoes on or shoeless) on the furniture while sleeping instead of using their rooms.
  19. And the person in this picture whose feet are on that table, they look like they belong to a man.
  20. Has nothing to do with Covid. It's the same people who say that they can wear whatever they like because they paid big money for their cruise on Viking.
  21. Should not expect to have to find your stateroom in poor condition after paying good money for the cruise. Ripped arms, worn carpets are totally unacceptable.
  22. I would be more dismayed if after spending big money for a room to find it not in tip top shape.
  23. Take the money and run. Don't get caught up in the voucher trap.
  24. Still a relatively easy airport to fly in and out of.
