  1. Viking doesn't have any ships with 3400 people. You must be referring to a different cruise line.
  2. Yes, first Viking cruise. Had 25 on Princess. Last two cruises were on Oceania and Celebrity. Both great. Viking 13 day Costa about $5200 pp for balcony. 4day princess was About $800 pp. for mini suite so times 4 wound be $3200. Its worth it for us. Oceania was fantastic. I would rather go less and have a better experience. Princess is looking for younger people. We are in our 70’s and not the demographic they want. Also I would not worry about dressing up. No one dressed in anything but T shirts on our cruise. They sprung a formal night at the last minute but the dress did not change. The ugliest, oldest T shirts they could find were the norm.
  3. Just show up at the symphony dining room at. 5pm. They will seat all of you. Forget making reservations. Service is better in anytime
  4. They refused to give me a cruise card.
  5. Messaging friends does not work. Ordering food does not work. Just off The Royal.. just give me a cruise card and stop this nonsense. They are also now charging elites for internet. I turned off the phone and declined. No final statement when we left the ship
  6. Just off theRoyal Thanksgiving cruise. Service was bad. Took over two hours for dinner with no desert. Ship fully booked, maybe 4,000 passengers. Tried reservation then went to anytime and got in at 5 pm every night. Thanksgiving dinner was flat out bad. Turkey roll, about 2 ounces, two thin slices of Yam and brussel sprouts. No mashed potatoes . The turkey tasted rubbery. They offered this same crap the last night of the cruise along with a surf and turf ( two small shrimp with no sauce or seasoning and maybe a 2 oz very thin cut tenderloin. I ate two and I am not a big eater. I wont cruise Princess again.
  7. Exactly. They can stick it. Any claim it does not always work anyway bi dont want to be tracked
  8. My wife uses a separate card. Both are registered on the my voyage site. If a tour is booked for her but not me, will it bill her card or do you need to enter new card before checking out? thanks
  9. Larger room, I would take it. We have guarantee lowest veranda on March 20 sailing. Never had a free upgrade on any line. Its time!
  10. I will not use Viator . Better go to their site, find the local tour operator and book with them direct. Good luck.no email support and you get the Philippines if you call. We had bad experiences with all our tours. Late, did not show up and bad pick up information. Be careful you book the right city. The confirmation nor the pass you add to appl,e wallet does not show the city. We booked a tour in San Sebastián which actually left from Bilbao, 2 hours away ,yes we got refunds but it was a hassle.
  11. If you don't pay the ransom to rent a tablet you have little chance of winning . It takes all the fun out of it as you really dont have to pay attention. We don’t play anymore
  12. Viking business was much less than what I could do on my own. Oceania, no.
  13. Its all very unsettling and does not give you a-warm feeling. 25 cruises with Princess. Probably done. Oceania was so much better in all aspects.
  14. Many have's aid just show your passport at the dock and they will check you in.
  15. Looking for a good restaurant for lunch near the port.
  16. Requested medallion a month ago and nothing has come. Cruise is Nov 23 Thanks
  17. I may bring a jacket a few ties. Used enjoy that when working. Sadly no one dresses up anymore. Recent Oceania cruise saw several men wearing jackets, which surprised me.
  18. We like 6:30. We will eat wherever that time is available.
  19. The French Toast is amazing! Had it alot in room service. Maple syrup is good. A bowl of Strawberries also.
