Ship - Splendor Sail Date - March 28, Miami to Lisbon Suite 1012, Grand Suite, midship, port side 2 bathrooms Noise issues - none Would book again? - Absolutely Great suite and location

Just off Splendor yesterday after a TA Miami to Lisbon. Fly home tomorrow and plan on posting some critiques, good and bad, once there.

We were on Splendor Miami to Lisbon and disembarked this morning. The asst. CD’s name is Tanner…..great crew on this cruise.

Agree with you, sir. And I am sure they may have got a little “discount” on the Regent Suite. Ms. Twain sang one night in the Splendor Lounge with the CD, David Nevin so perhaps a little way of paying her back for a few songs. We were in 1201 and being ex Canucks ourselves, was nice to say “how ya doing eh” to her and her husband.

I will venture to say, then, that this famous person was given preferential treatment in the Regent Suite. Based on her known history, I would have to believe her pooch was for emotional support and certainly was not a service dog. She certainly did not.does not, require a service dog. Very nice couple and certainly suspect she was given VIP treatment with allowing them to bring their pooch onboard.A global star, for sure.

On Splendor at this time doing a TA to Lisbon. Last March on Splendor we were directly below the Regent Suite, and a very famous singer/songstress had a very small dog (??) with her and would show up in Observation Lounge, dining venues, etc. with it in a tiny carry case. Know the history of this lady and suspect it was a service dog. Perhaps special privileges for the famous?

Presently on splendor doing a TA. Last March we were on Splendor and the chair hogs were very prevalent with zero considerations for fellow cruisers. On this cruise. There is a table set up beside pool bar with the policy listed and crew are enforcing the policy carefully. Have seen some items placed on the table of shame to be collected by those not abiding by the policy. Kind of funny to watch those whose items are on the table shuffle to it with heads down I would like to see this policy taken one step and have everyone around the pool boo those cretins when picking up their items.

Absolutely agree. Tours By Locals offer much better service and price, for the most part.

Have you signed up on the Splendor TA roll call? A group of us meeting at sail away around pool bar.

Was it a “Hee Haw” themed cruise?? Just giving you the Mickey….

Perfect.

We always take the flight credit and book our own flights. More expensive but we are guaranteed we will always get exactly what we want and no “surprises”. And there are times we have been surprised as to how little extra we end up paying because of deals on AmEx Platinum with 5x points, minus deviation fees (always seem to be required), etc. We are doing a Splendor TA March 28, will spend a couple extra days in Lisbon and fly back from there.

Do you know who GM and CD will be for our March 28 TA on Splendor?

She would have been had I been there! Just (semi) kidding.

You may want to check prices for Blacklane…they offer terrific service.

If you are considering a Culinary Kitchen class, they can be used for those.

It was actually a Regent rep who told me they were keeping certain suites (Deck 6) open in case of an outbreak on this TA cruise. agree with Pcardad….seems like forced medicine or treatment could be actionable.

We absolutely love Splendor…..terrific decor, furnishings, artwork, etc. We were on her last March and will be again March 28 on a TA. And this viewpoint from another ex Canuck. What happened to the Flames this year??

On our Splendor cruise last March, we had a full bottle of Tito's, Woodford Anniversary, Crown Royal (just a couple shots gone) and our butler wrapped them in bubblewrap the night before disembarkation for us to put in our luggage.

On our last Splendor cruise, March 2022, we ate lunch at the pool grill a few times. Peel and eat shrimp were very good along with a nice cold beer.

Agree…no guarantees. We both had COVID after initial 2 jabs and before the 3 boosters. Won’t deter us, though.

What I wanted to hear. We have a very nice suite for the TA end of March and would be upset if we were moved. Had 3rd booster so think it will be a non issue.

I have heard Regent continues to keep cabins open (Deck 6) in the event anyone onboard needs to be isolated if a positive test happens????

Hope to meet you onboard then once back home, comparing the hotels.

A terrific hotel in one of the best locations in the city is the Bairro Alto Hotel. We have stayed there before and will spend a couple extra days there when we disembark Splendor April 9 after our TA cruise.
