It would help to know which ship you are asking about. I've looked at answers below but did not see which ship you are asking about.
Until Vista arrives only O class ships have OS on the decks cited, I.e. 8, 9 and 10

InsGuy3…we regularly sail the O class ships in either 8143 or 9147. The two suites are virtually identical. One of the replies offered the higher the deck the size reduces. True but bring your micrometer re finding differences 8 versus 9. 10 the size difference is certainly noticeable in comparison to 8/9 but still a wonderful accommodation. All without any noise but that created via the wake. Host Jazzbeau question not an issue. 11 deck a stairway connecting with 12. We’ve never seen used in over 25 cruises. 7 access area to ship’s aft flag, security cameras, etc. when in 8143 never knew anyone was there.

Likely 17 to 27 October 2019. That is the only break through 2019
FYI Regatta in Seattle Sept 6-23 for its Next refurbishment. Source: GM in charge of the R class refits....Nautica still set for June 2020

We are also on this cruise. I booked at the Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel. It is right next door to the train station which I thought would be convenient. I gave up on the roll call because the person who is organizing the meet and greet keeps posting the same statement over and over every time someone new joins the meet and greet.
And will continue to do so...

Islandwoman....this still applies. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2226398
Particularly note Hondorner input.
We regularly bring case(s) aboard. Impounding an alien concept to Oceania.
-
Mom Kaplan...here is a discussion from a while ago but most remains revenant today. Particularly note hondorner (Don Horner) input. Always accurate.

OBC available for corkage. Just returned from Riviera and brought cases of wine aboard. Never an issue over seventeen cruises.

Does anyone know the hours of the fitness center since it is above Oceania Suite 12017? Thank you.
Believe it’s still 6:30 am. Was in Oct ‘17. Can’t help on closing

One butler, normally the Head Butler, covers the three owner suites on the O class ships.

Both Marina and Nautica overnighted in Bordeaux end of May, 2017. Friends were on Marina....

For the video(s) see post 3. You will observe:
Deck 10 entry foyer/bar area smaller than 8/9. Bar by approximately 1/2. Built in cabinet space great reduced. Upright piano vs, 8/9 mini baby grand. Chaise lounge gone in 10. Bedroom and Living room not as deep to balcony in 10. Video shows placement of vanity table against closet wall on 10 versus window side 8/9. Same re dining area. One furniture piece/sideboard on 10. Two separate pieces in 8/9. Re 8 vs 9 differences virtually imperceptible even to someone as anal as I. Same applies O ship to ship.
All displayed in the referenced videos.
-
Darcie...see links. 10 deck somewhat different from 8 and 9 decks. Latter two virtually identical excepting a small, insignificant difference in the entry way.
Videos may be Marina but, again, virtually the same to Riviera.
-
When you used the piano, were they at least complete songs or just pieces of songs (like a sampler)? Were there enough that it wasn't like hearing the same music again and again? .
Might have been complete songs. Not a large selection re variety. Demo Repeats rather quickly imo. Gave up and used suite apple docking station and phone as music solution
-
Oops, wrong ship. No Riviera until feb '18
-
We'll be 9147 in sept...will report if any change....over a number of years I have charged Pritam, Sandeep, John, et. with get the chip a'la Marina. All to no avail. I've given up. It's the only thing those wonderful butlers have been unable to do. FYI Piano models are actually slightly different between the two ships.
-
Unlike Marina, Riviera pianos do not have a chip expanding the song list. They have the preloaded manufacturer demo songs and that's it. As least as of this March. No cd capability. Can't offer on deck 10. Answered based on personal experience in 9147 and 8143.
-
I think the new language in the documents is confusing people.....l
What new language....no change from at least 2011 per docs cited above. More importantly no change in practice cited by anyone.
-
Catlover54....I looked at my cruise vacation guides from Mar 2016 and Sept 2011 as examples. Didn't retain anything older. Your cite re liquor, bond, right to retain, etc were in each of those documents. I have routinely brought case(s) of wine and one bottle of spirits aboard per cruise. There has never been an issue. We have averaged two cruises per year since 2010. Admittedly anecdotes are not policy but over the years neither on Cruise Critic p threads nor shipboard has there been a documented instance of consification. Adults acting as such equals a non event not only in our experience but those on many others. Pack and enjoy.

Hi Jeff...the last page of the GDR wine list shows two ports available by the glass. Per post 3 above then it should work....
Been too long, best to you and Randy

-
Same number you are considering almost nightly. at least one larger session per cruise which averages upper 20's.
-
++1....post #3 agreed. However, remember it's Oceania. they have been totally accommodative in adjusting portion sizes, selection, anything we desired each time we have used this service.
-
There is a separate menu for such. We've always found it placed in the right hand desk drawer on Marina/Riviera. Certainly expect it would be available on "R" class ships as well. No experience with the latter.
-
Had one like instance some years ago not final payment related. System malfunctioned allowing reservations as you described. System was repaired and those bookings were deleted. Once system was mended normal booking rules were re established and maintained. O site in the US is currently down. Possibly related.
-
One possibility. If you are in OS, VS or OC suites and final payment has been made earlier than the 90/150 day mark the specialty reservation system will be available.
First time Oceania Cruiser - Difference between Owners Suites on Decks 8, 9, and 10

There are YouTube videos of 10 and either 8 or 9 or both assuming they are still up…generally less depth to the rooms re stern slope…particularly noticeable in the entry/bar area.
