  1. Fair enough, but you might have to wait for some considerable time. As an alternative visit the Panorama, order a cocktail and have waiter bring it to the Obs Lounge.
  2. Not unless there is a private party.
  3. Firstly, it’s good to see the Atlantide MD sticking to the dress code. I trust he was polite. The issue with cilantro probably has more to do with the fact that the meal has been partly pre-prepared and the galley hasn’t time to make a new one, especially early in a busy service. It’s a shame but probably a fact of life. BTW what was the dish? One of the things about fine dining is pacing, so the times seem reasonable. Hope you are having a good time and thanks for posting.
  4. Happy to go for lunch, but the dinner is not worth it it IMHO.
  5. It has been mentioned a number of times on these boards since the restart.
  6. There will be morning and afternoon lectures, cooking demonstrations, bingo, trivia, golf putting, bridge lectures in the morning, duplicate in the afternoon and of course the highlights of an ocean crossing, eating, drinking, relaxing and making new friends.
  7. Thanks for providing the Celebrity package. A couple of comments, the wine is rather US orientated and the Villa Maria SB is cheaper here in the UK than SS’s standard pour of Tiki SB. If your are a spirits or beer drinker I get your point.
  8. You thought a previous comment was a little harsh, but my, a broken record comes to mind.
  9. Are you aware that there is now an alternative?
  10. Alternatively why not try a number of segments. We have have been on multiple segments on 5 WC’s, usually 2 but sometimes 3. We like the vibe and choose based on ports. As for weight, well maybe I’m lucky but I have yet to come home heavier. Eating sensibly, exercise and avoiding the lifts seems to work. Agree with @mystythat trying a GV may be worthwhile.
  11. It’s pretty unlikely you will have to wait until you get on the ship, but even if you did would it really matter?
  12. IMHO you are totally wrong and your continued attempts to change what makes it special are tiresome at best. You are part of a very vocal minority who seem to believe that repetition will wear us down and make SS conform to your point of view.
  13. Can’t see why not, my wife uses her Dyson curlers without issue and she loathes her hair being straight. How nice to have a thread that doesn’t include mens attire 😎
  14. IMHO unless you have one of the very small number of conditions that mitigate against COVID vaccination then you shouldn’t be allowed to travel internationally and certainly not on a cruise ship.
  15. Agreed, this is a backward step when Omicron and it’s variants are as transmissible as ever. If SS remove the vaccination requirements then it’s goodbye to SS.
  16. Moon on the Grand Voyage around South America.
  17. Not that I recall, they are basically ‘dumb’ sets. Best to bring an iPad or tablet and use that.
  18. Sorry to hear that, even though it was expected. Any sweetners offered or just a straight refund?
  19. If it’s rough you will need to be a good sailor on deck 9. Check out the roll call.
  20. Possibly Cloud circa 2011/12 with Kashena and Anastasia.
