Bellaggio Cruisers Posted March 30, 2018 #26 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Still "onboard" with you guys! Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambagahle Posted April 4, 2018 Author #27 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Maybe not! I just got a Splendor (I prefer it with the "u" but never mind!) brochure by e mail. It lists TWO Panama Canal cruises in 2020 - one Miami to LA, then the other LA to Miami. Miami to LA sails 25 February. I have asked my TA to switch my Explorer booking to the Splendour as soon as booking opens. Same suite (I hope!) I see that one can also register with Regent for this...

Bellaggio Cruisers Posted April 4, 2018 #28 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Hey Gerry Why not join Jackie, Dennis, Herb and I on the LAX-MIA cruise. Fly to LA and home from Miami. Perhaps you can switch it now. We won't even be able to join you for coffee because the ship doesn't sail the same day you arrive. Just a thought --- Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambagahle Posted April 4, 2018 Author #29 Share Posted April 4, 2018 And a lovely thought, Sheila. But - I have a garden. I need to be home ASAP in the spring. I just cannot delay another 2-3 weeks. How about you? Miami to LA ? Jackie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travelcat2 Posted April 5, 2018 #31 Share Posted April 5, 2018 For us, we want to spend time with family in L.A. before the cruise. Once a cruise is over, Dennis just wants to go home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambagahle Posted April 5, 2018 Author #32 Share Posted April 5, 2018 We all have our priorities! I just wish Regent could let us know what to expect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellaggio Cruisers Posted April 6, 2018 #33 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I am waiting until we hear from Regent about our status. It has to be less than one week away. Let's discuss everything after we are contacted by them to resolve their dilemma and our bookings, made many months ago. Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did notice that our booking for the March 26th LA-MIA cruise was removed from the list of our upcoming cruises on the rssc.com website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellaggio Cruisers Posted April 6, 2018 #35 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Mine is still there. Hmmm?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambagahle Posted April 6, 2018 Author #36 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Just heard from my TA. Explorer Miami/LA and LA/Miami is replaced by the new Splendor (hate that spelling!) cruises on the same itinerary but different dates as in their brochure. We are offered Explorer on the same date but a 10 day Caribbean itinerary OR Splendor (no info on any price as yet) Miami to LA. The situation is getting clearer... I have asked for Suite 784 on the Splendor Miami/LA or, failing that, 785 LA to Miami (in which case I might be with you "guys" ) Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOARMY Posted April 6, 2018 #37 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Our TA just forwarded Regent's notification as to change. Our booking goes back to September, 2017. Regent advises our suite category will remain the same; no change in pricing. No penalty. So--We will be on Splendor for that March cruise from LA to Miami. GOARMY!

Travelcat2 Posted April 7, 2018 #39 Share Posted April 7, 2018 We could not be happier with this change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambagahle Posted April 7, 2018 Author #40 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Plus - reading the "fine print" - prior bookings on Explorer (all of ours for example) are to be honoured at the price on our invoices for the same suite category for the Splendor cruise. I thought that would have to happen but it was nice to see it in writing. since it looks from the brochure that the fares on Splendor for us anyway would be about $3k pp more - very nice indeed.

Bellaggio Cruisers Posted April 7, 2018 #41 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Sorry Gerry, we are disappointed that we won’t be able to sail with you on this voyage. Let’s try again. Enjoy! Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambagahle Posted April 7, 2018 Author #42 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Sheila - I gave my TA "your" departure date as a back up. We will see next week what happens... Gerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
