  2. Our flight on AIR TAHITI was fully refundable that's not the issue at this point as I said before extra 3 days in paradise not so bad
  3. I'll be on Nautica in January I'll let you know
  4. on our Vista cruise last January we asked the room stewards to remove soda cans and replace them with small bottles of Perrier in our refrigerator. At dinner and lunch we requested Perrier rather than water to pour. This was before SM.We booked the cruise before they implemented SM.
  5. AIR France has a flight out Tuesday but it fully booked. United flies to SFX and then to Newark not JFK non stop.We have trip iinteruption insurance so I will try that when we get home.
  6. All passengers on AIR TAHITI booked for this flight where rebooked for the 28th or 29th Air TAHITI flies to LAX were we staying overnight then flying to JFK the day after on Delta. We have traveler insurance and besides what's so bad stuck in paradise for a few days.
  7. We sailed the R2 Renasance in June of 1999. Spain and Mediterranean
  8. If I understand it correctly I have Gold and my invoice shows $250.00 credit and I. will receive $250.00 credit when I board in addition to my gold status is that correct.
  9. Our cruise arrives into Papeete January 26 2025 the flight from PPT to LAX was cancelled and we are booked 3 days later. on January 29th had to make 3 day reservation at IHG HAD NO CHOICE
  10. Back in the old days, O had a strict no tipping policy 2008 our first Oceania cruise if you stood on your head and spit wooden nickel no-one took. Very disappointing LOL No restaurant manager head waiter or waiter would accept graduates That changed around 2012.
  11. When we first meet our room stewards we ask for a few requests. To keep our top sheet and blanket untucked and to remove. bolster and leave only the pillows when making the bed. To remove the soda cans and replace with Perrier and request a new hairdryer and give them a few pence for our requests.
  12. we always request our room stewards to fill refrigurater with small bottles of Perrier and remove soda cans.
  13. We did a 7 day cruise on the Windsong in 1993. First time in Tahiti. Fantastic only 110 passengers and men wore sport jackets to dinner every evening. We tendered on a Motu for lunch and the captain set all the sails up and cruised so we all could take pictures with our cameras as she sailed around. No cell phones LOL
  14. it's not Oceania who books the car it is the tour company that does it. They have a few car service they use. We did the same thing in Beijing about 10 yrs ago worked great
  15. We have been sailing Oceania past 15 years In 2014 we cruised from Papetti to Sydney and Nuku Hiva was a fantastic tour by 4x4 jeeps don't miss it
  16. The Intercontinental does not offer a day room rate anymore. We had one in 2017 but for our upcoming cruise in January they offer a Lotus pool package with lunch from 10 am to 5 pm I think they let you use the spa to shower and change but not sure
  17. We used Oceania private . car service in Miami to airport was $200.00 We had left over shipboard credit so it was either use it or loose it.
  18. We are sailing on our 15th cruise this January and we are now gold $400.00 SBC per cabin still don't see advantage We are on SM for this cruise. The cruise before SM we had $500.00 sbc for booking on board and another $500.00 promo and $250.00 for being silver. We used those credits for wine bottle purchase and a few excursions and got a $600.00 pp credit for booking our own air.
  19. Think you might be better off in Long Beach. More choices and not too far to port.
  20. We requested the small bottles of Perrier replace all the cans of soda in our cabin fridge and replenish every day. The room stewards are. very accommodating
  21. The OP is talking about a pre cruise ship excursion. For peace of mind the excursion will arrive at the cruise port on time and know the ship will not leave without them.That's worth the price.
  22. I would think Oceania would offer a post cruise excursion in Sydney that you can take
  23. We have done pre and post excursion with O in the last 15 years You should look up cruises that O is doing in 2024 and 2025 to Cape Town they will list all the pre and post excursions with prices
  24. I've never been on Carnival but don't they have soda on board?
  25. We are staying overnight at the Hyatt next to LAX and flying out the next morning to JFK.We have done this flight over the last 15 years but getting a little older to wait for connecting flights
