Happy you think so.  I don't.  

My stateroom had a half open bottle of tonic in frig.  Hairs  in a bath room  drawer,  dirty carpet and was missing airbugs for  Quitevox.  Perhaps half the crew acknowledge you with a hello.  The security crew always smile.  All the Jupiter  crew in Iceland  last month  did.  Bar service is good not great.  The food at dinner has been excellent. 

Enjoy the rest of your cruise. 

And do you know the real story why we didn't do Montenegro?

Curious to hear how they responded to your complaints.

On the Viking Sea. Arrived yesterday at 11:30am on the Lufthansa charter flight from Newark. Viking had a rep in NY to help with any concerns. The only items needed at the Malta airport were passport, vaccination card and that Malta digital health form. They never asked to see our negative covid tests in Malta but they did in Orlando (where we originally flew from).The whole process was easy peasy as long as you have everything together. It’s a short bus ride to the ship and the check in process was well organized and very fast. 
Hope this helps!😃

FF - A few questions if you don't mind. At Orlando did you check in with United or Lufthansa? At Newark did you have to claim and re-check your bags or did they automatically transfer.  Enjoy your cruise!

Just received in our room on the Sky; Viking's done a great job.

But I couldn’t find any that covered the quarantine costs….only the costs of missed cruise days which Viking states they will work with us to cover.  

We use the InsureMyTrip website to research trip insurance.  It allows you to compare several options.  They say they have a tool for Covid coverage, but I don't think it's there yet. 

I had to read the Trip Interruption portion of the certificate of each policy to see if quarantine was specifically covered when you're not actually sick.  They do not all cover that.  Actually, the paragraph that covers this in ours looks like it was tacked on at the end of a long list.

That website also has a number to call to speak to an insurance agent who can help with questions.  I did this to verify I had a good option selected, and was glad I did.  The agent also reminded me that the policies vary by your state of residence, so a policy that works for one of us may not work for others.

Hope this helps.
