Look at post #115

We board it after you

Last year we did 2 cruises on Silhoutte. First one was Scandinavia in July 2023. We had a concierge cabin on deck 9. Excellent. No issues what so ever. Clean, nice steward, happy smiling faces all over. Staff morale seemed really high. And we even told Hotel Manager how wonderful the crew were. September 2023 Iceland and Belfast cruise. Still on deck 9 but in Prime veranda about 20 cabins from our last one! What a bloody joke! Stateroom had supposedly been cleaned at it was about 2.30pm when we had checked in. Crumbs and litter in the drawers, mirror in bathroom with water stains, toothpaste stains in vanity units and the balcony looked as if it had not been touched at all. There were hand prints on the glass of the sliding doors. We lodged a complaint and one of the senior staff came with room steward and I had to show him all the issues. After that, he made sure he cleaned all everyday but never had time for balcony. Since weather was not in our favour we were not utilising it much initially but you could no see the sea as the glass panels in balcony were covered in salt water stains! a few days into our Iceland cruise, we noticed a big fan outside one of the cabins near us! And the smell!🤮🤢🤮🤢. Turned out that that cabin had major sewage issues. The poor couple in there asked to be moved so many times and were declined each time. Felt so sorry for them! That fan was on all day, everyday for the rest of the cruise and the smell got worse every passing day. So OP it is not just you. There is a serious issue on that ship and it needs to be in dry dock for them to do a full system cleanse on it. I was not happy with that holiday and on return home I was very ill. Do not know if it was to do with the water or Covid but I had to be signed off work for 3 weeks. I did email CC and was given £200 fcc.

That’s a personal choice. I found that my ankles were swelling from drinking the ships water and halfway through my last trip I switched to bottled water and swelling went down.

Yep. We got one of the target reusable bags and tied up the handles tightly and stapled the luggage tag to it. Gave the porter $5 tip to ensure it got on

Yes. Just put one of your luggage tags on it.

It is because they are rubbish.

We are on this one. All Veranda are now showing sold out. Really hope it doesn’t get cancelled as will be booking flights soon

You have to put me in touch with her. I could do with agent like her
