No, they are added to your on board account.

Especially if you finish the first one quickly!

Enjoy your trip. Last time we were on for a short cruise, it was only 1 bottle of spirits/wine which is OK if you like the same thing!

That was my understanding as well @bluemarble.

Love the Easter eggs, thank you.

Very interesting, thank you for sharing them.

Great photos, thank you so much for sharing them with us.

There's no buffet in Princess Grill. Do you want to share the wording in the email and we'll try to interpret ?

I like Deck 4 for the larger balconies.

I've moved the food discussion into a new thread.

Customer Services will give you details before your cruise if you email but last year there was only one of those actually on board when we sailed!

They were built on the same Vista design but they are not the same ship.

These are from Queen Victoria last October to give you an idea

There are links to Daily Programmes in the Welcome sticky at the top of the board. Which ship are you considering?

Welcome to Cruise Critic. I would try a shorter cruise before jumping into a World Cruise, you might hate it !

@AntjeG I've moved your posts about Stockperks to a more recent thread about the app

Yes really.

Thanks for letting us know, hopefully it doesn't happen too often.

Thank you, is that because it's an embarkation day ?

Thanks for posting @ChrisMV, what time are they serving food?

Roll calls are for those already booked, general questions about a route are fine in the main boards. The OP can join the roll call if/when they book the cruise.

I've split the new questions into a new thread.

Thank you, I've had a lovely day with lunch in sunny Saundersfoot.

The duration will be shown before booking so you can choose a duration that suits you. Short excursions may also have a choice of start times. As long as you are back on board by the time shown in the Daily Programmes and at the gangway as you leave the ship your time is your own.

That was my understanding as well until we were given a table on Deck 3 on QM2 for fixed dining. We had requested a table of 6 and were given a table for 2. This wasn't a last minute booking and there were a number of tables further back in our section who were also on fixed dining. We were the only ones next to open dining. The only alternative offered was a move to early sitting. We declined the offer.
