GeorgiaPeach Sails the Atlantic on Splendor
Techno123 replied to GeorgiaPeach51's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
I checked in using the iPad (easier to upload a photo) and they sent us an email with our boarding passes so I printed that off. You can access everything you completed for checkin on your Regent account if you want to print anything else off. -
GeorgiaPeach Sails the Atlantic on Splendor
Techno123 replied to GeorgiaPeach51's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
GP51 I am with you re maps - I have to hold a map so it is facing the way I am going as I am directionally 'dyslexic'. I remember we were going to London for a wedding many moons ago (their daughter has just married) and I am telling my husband in an increasingly loud and panicked voice that he needed to be in the right hand lane for our exit whilst pointing left (the way we needed to go). - you can imagine how cheerful he was as we sailed past our exit and had to travel several miles down the motorway to be able to turn around then arrived at the wedding after the bride πππ± -

World Cup matches shown onboard?
Techno123 replied to Techno123's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
Engerland (i.e. England) used by the footie fans mostly. The advantage of 'Engerland' as opposed to 'England' is the extra syllable 'ger' allowing the chanting of the team's name being easier and more melodic. So not profane πππ -

I think the Lisbon/Miami leg sounds much nicer than the other way as the clock goes back so more time in bed and warmer temps ππ -

You played really well against England tonight - well done. I think Wales might be going home unless they up their game and beat Engerland π -
The only time I was ever called by my given name at home, I knew I had to run and hide ππ

Techno123 replied to Techno123's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
It's the only downside to cruising and usually I only lose the odd day to it. Our last two cruises were on the Danube then Rhine rivers and no issues but going back to the ocean fully prepared. As a child, falling asleep when travelling was my default to avoid carsickness and I still try to sleep even now as an adult (not when driving of course ππ). So far have found the cinnarizine goes very well with a glass of Monopole Blue Top ππ -

Thank you Kwaj girl - I will be their best customer ππ I take cinnarizine twice per day anyway, have the acupressure wrist bands and use Kwells which is Hyoscine in moments of desperation so might try the Meclizine instead if it is better -

We will wave to you as you get on and we get off but don't wish the next few weeks away too quickly π -

Thank you Pcardad that is reassuring - this is only our second Regent cruise (done a few on Seabourn) first was on Voyager this coming one on Navigator then next year on the Explorer so we will have done each size π -
Due to join the Navigator for a Caribbean cruise in just over 2 weeks (if we can get out of the UK that is as everyone seems to be planning a pre Christmas strike π±. Some of the Heathrow staff, the train companies, the passport and security staff but π€π»π€π»We will arrive in Miami on the 11th). Seen a few recent posts about the other ships but nothing on the little one π question is, is anyone onboard at the moment who would be willing to answer a few questions - is all well and happy? Staff settled in after Covid, ship looking pretty and food tasting great? First sea cruise for a while and looking forward to some luxury π. Thank you for any feedback.

World Cup matches shown onboard?
Techno123 replied to Techno123's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
The US played a much stronger game in the first half. For Wales the starting line up was wrong and they were a bit star struck to begin with but we were all much happier with their performance in the second half and I think they deserved the draw. -

Well that was a game of two halves!! Wales were abysmal in the first half but fortunately redeemed themselves in the second half ππ΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώ -
The issue for me is not whether the dog is a service animal or not, or whether we all should know if that is the case. As a dog owner myself I know that dogs can have worms, fleas and ticks - the dog being allowed on the furniture and defecating on carpets puts other passengers at potential risk from parasites (totally aside from any allergy issues).

Was just going to say the exact same thing. Have you noticed that you are referred to by name after you have given your suite number?

We are a small nation (3.1 million) with a big heart and just getting there is amazing - maybe we will get there together and the team from over the border will get knocked out πππ But we can only hope they play better than our rugby players are playing at the moment π±π± -

Well would you believe, GeorgiaPeach has just posted a daily programme for Splendour and there it was π so hopefully the whole fleet will be showing the matches. -

Well you have just answered a question I have just posted about the World Cup football (soccer) matches being shown onboard as it was there in the first photograph of the daily programme ππ -
Well it's 64 years since Wales were last in a World Cup π΄σ §σ ’σ ·σ ¬σ ³σ Ώand we have been practising 'Yma o hyd' in the glorious hope they may make it through to the knock out rounds π€π». The semifinals are due to take place on the 13th (a sea day) and the 14th and the final on the 18th when we stop in Antigua. Question is, are Regent likely to be showing the 'footy' somewhere onboard the Navigator as we should just be making it back from our walking tour of St John's at 11am in time for kick off π otherwise we will need to find a bar to watch it in. Mike - if you are reading can you please check π. Thank you all.
