    VISTA

    Hi Lyn - I think the big lineup at the GDR the last few nights might have been because of the O Loyalty parties and everyone rushed to the GDR from there.....all dressed up and so decided to go to the GRD instead of Terrace
  2. The TVs do not move or turn....you can sit on the couch and watch the TV from the side....I can't answer your question about the speakers
  3. You will have chocolates on your pillow every night and there are pretzels, potato chips and nuts in the bars that you could take a bowl of to your room for snacking later...
  4. Vista is same as O ships - laundry on each cabin deck ...free to use and detergent provided free of charge
  5. We have brought hard liquor onboard many times and, in fact, brought hard liquor onboard this Vista cruise at embarkation and at a port... I am sorry you received bad information.
  6. I am currently on Vista and it works!!! You go to the channel guide, choose your channel, press "OK" to watch channel in full screen and then press "diamond" button to the left of the "0" button and it will show CC enabled" . This works on all channels....
  7. Red Ginger indeed does have a whole bank of windows down one side of the restaurant, the same as Embers on the same floor opposite side. Polo and Toscana are on a high floor and at the back of the ship so have windows down the side of the restaurant and around the back.. Red Ginger on Marina and Riviera also have windows but they are covered with black curtains so never knew there were windows.
  8. we are currently on Vista and no white cloths on the floor at turn down so for those that disliked them - your voices have been heard
  9. On Vista and it took 2 days - turned in on Tuesday AM and was on our bed o Thursday AM....so timing can vary depending upon length of cruise and number of people turning in laundry the same time you do...plan on 3 days and be pleasantly surprised if it shows up sooner
  10. Concierge level cabins and above have 3 free bags (20 items per bag) for each sailing. It is wash and fold only and up to a 3 day turn around.....
  11. We are currently onboard Vista and were unable to connect via bluetooth to the TV. We have heard nothing from the cabins either side of us...
  12. Was this for an Oceania cruise? There was a bit of an excitement when someone did not read the email they received from O on the upcoming Vista Panama Canal cruises. The email was noting that there was a change to arrival in a port or two and since the day we will be transiting the canal was listed as a "sea day", she automatically jumped to the conclusion that the canal transit had been canceled. But, as people pointed out, unless O is going to pick the ship up and lift over the isthmus Vista is transiting the canal to be on the Pacific for a port and on the Atlantic for a port 2 days later.. The itinerary on the website specifically shows our canal transit as usual,
  13. On the 24 ATW, the luggage is picked up and delivered back to your residence. There are transfers from the airport to the pre cruise hotel and then from the pre-cruise hotel to the ship. On the return, there are transfer from the ship to the airport. This is for those taking the free first class air from Oceania offered for ATW
  14. We are currently on Vista and some fellow passengers are wearing mask and all the crew....no odd looks from anyone. Also, at least so far, very little coughing being seen or herd...
  15. Yes - they still have happy hour in the early evening in Martinis and Horizon and late night in Horizon - just enjoyed the HH drinks and live music in Horizons on Vista last night.
  16. Yes - the key cards were given to us when we checked in at the terminal (basically the same as always) and then were scanned when we walked onboard
  17. I just checked and it only for 36 cruises over 2023 and 2024 so not many itineraries/sailings.....same as offering "Ultimate OLife" for cruises not selling well...
  18. Interesting, as we commented that our large suitcases fit under our bed without having to lift up like usual.....appears DH happen to find the right spot without the lowered railing or our bed has a different bed frame. We have 2 large and 1 carry on under our bed closed (in fact we have a carry on inside one of the large cases and a medium case inside the other.). apparently bed frames differ on Vista...will have to get down and look under there to see.
  19. Isn't this a "promotion/sale" offering so not fleet wide...with SM everyone has the select beverage package and $$$ shore excursion credit on the select cruises listed so this is adding onboard cash/credit that can be used for anything. It is basically like the "old OLife" ultimate sale where you received all 3 perks on select sailings. Another way to fill up slow selling itineraries/dates...
  20. As they say location, location, location - same as the WIFI but so far it has been amazing...
  21. We had just got up and could barely hear the announcement - went and opened door and could just hear Ray's voice
  22. We also have been enjoying lunches at Aquamar - so fresh and so yummy!
  23. On Vista - our large bags closed slid under the bed easily....another great upgrade on this beautiful new ship!
  24. Oceania does not monitor any of the FB pages so you will not get any response from O on FB
  25. We received the credit for the canceled excursion for Sagueny...glad you got yours fixed
