  1. It has been reported that all of the pools on the Sun Princess have ladder entries vs. gradual step-type entries. We're sailing with children (9 and 11). I wondered just how deep the pools are? Will the children be able to stand once they enter the pool or will it be over their heads everywhere?
  2. So I think the OP's question was, if they DON'T respond to the email will they receive the old pleather luggage tags, rather than the paper ones. I read that email as not really giving them a choice. Regent just wants to confirm the address to send the tags ,which will be paper instead of the older(nicer!) ones.
  3. So first and last days are Pool Grill only?
  4. There's a Regent rep at the hotel? (We're at that same hotel and didn't expect dinner but it will be nice to have someone to answer other questions that might come up)
  5. Anyone know anything about the other regent ships?
  6. We'll be on the Mariner in the fall for a big birthday trip for my husband so I'm SO happy to hear that everything is wonderful! Thank you!
  7. Yes we arrive the day before and I'm planning on hiring a private guide for that day. The hotel site I linked looks like we're within a mile of lots of sites for that final morning. I just wondered how early the bus would be picking us up - if it's earlier that 9 or 10 we'll just hang around the hotel.
  8. Palazzo Montemartini Rome (It looks like it's right in the middle of everything!) https://www.radissonhotels.com/en-us/hotels/radisson-collection-rome-palazzo-montemartini/attractions ***
  9. We will be sailing on our first cruise out of Rome. Does anyone know the approximate time the Regent transportation leaves from the Rome hotels? Is there time for any sightseeing that morning? ***
  10. What makes you think you won't get airline points for you flight if you book through Regent? We have a flight on Delta and it shows on my Delta app as a normal booking so I expect to get points. I also chose my seats and expect lounge access. We had to make an adjustment ot our booking (the Regent rep booked the wrong day) and I didn'y have to pay a second $75. ***
  11. Thank you. I added Blanton's to our request form. I hope there is more availability than Booker's.
  12. Thanks. Already did that. I really appreciate all of the replies. This won't make or break the cruise. I just thought it would be nice if my husband could possibly get his preferred brand.
  13. And how does one find out what they "supply at a charge"?
  14. I don't know Regent's rules but most cruiselines don't allow you to bring your own liquor on board. (Just wine)
  15. Certain costs are fixed for the cruiselines. I think the profit margin on the luxury lines is higher and it would be unwise business practice to lose those customers. And, as far as cuts, we started cruising on Sitmar. Things that were "mainstream" then aren't even done on the luxury lines now. It bothered me for a while but it's just the way things go. **
  16. I remember that!!! But it was on Princess - I actually saw someone wearing one. (Does that age me?)
  17. Thank you!!!! We embark in Rome and I was thinking maybe we could do some touring before embarking. Is it safe to leave our carry-ons (with medications, etc.) in the room for them to take? EDIT: I just checked and Civitavecchia is an hour from Rome. Guess we'll take the bus. ***
  18. That's what I expected (if you read my original post) but I guess it can't hurt to ask. Everything except the Buffalo Trace was on the original list of choices.
  19. I thought the same thing . 🤣 Will do. Thanks!
  20. He likes Bookers but I know that's not going to happen. Yellowstone or sometimes Buffalo Trace..
  21. I just looked at the choices for our in suite beverage choices and none of the bourbon choices are what my husband usually drinks. Are there more choices at the bars or dining rooms? Can we special order something not on their list? Thank you!
  22. I know gratuities are included in the cruise fare but we usually tip the crew something extra. Are dollars ok for that or should we get Euros?
  23. I had a similar question, although we DID book our flights through Regent. Also, the next morning will a Regent transfer coach be at the hotel to take us to the ship?
  24. If they asked how many it might be possible they will be sending you "special" tags to attach so that you'll get priority delivery.
