Hey Itchin!  I saw you were up for questions 🙂 I started thinking about booking the Panorama when I read about the Havana area.  My understanding is it would be a Cuban themed area with Cuban drinks, Cuban music at night and Cuban snacks/food available.  I'm wondering if they are doing that - I haven't read anyone say they are on reviews of other ships with a Havana area.  I did book a long time ago and was curious if they've abandoned the concept and it's just another bar area with a decorative theme, but not much else Cuban.

 

Thanks in advance and have a great cruise - we'll be on her Valentine's week.

I will do my best to check out the Havana area, but their may be others that have had first hand experience. On our last Xmas cruise on Horizon we did stop in their for a drink at the bar one afternoon, but never went back again. It seems out of the way. I hope you enjoy your cruise.

Fabby - On the Sunshine, it was as you described...Awesome Cuban food set out, Cuban drinks on the menu.  Don't know about Cuban music because we were never there in the evenings but I thought the food was great and it was our go-to place for snacks! 

 

The Sunshine does not have the full Cuban area, but hopefully since they are still doing it there, the new Havana areas will be as well.

 

I sail the Panorama  on January 11 and looking forward to checking it out!

Thank you American Airlines!

Thanks Ella about the Havana area info - I can only hope.  Love Cuban music, so I've got my fingers crossed!  If you do get a chance, I'd love to hear what you observe on your cruise.

 

Itchin - Good to hear about the snacks, etc.  Sorry you are delayed - hopefully, anticipation will make it all the better.

I am hoping to write a thorough (possibly live) review...We have reservations at all specialty restaurants as well as Chef's Table.  Its a casino premier sailing, my birthday midway through, and my first ever time sailing from the left!

Following along...

 

I will be on Panorama over spring break, staying in Family Harbour area. Haven't heard anything about the rooms, etc there yet and REALLY hoping I didn't make a huge mistake having read about the noise issues on some of the other ships!

Following along. Enjoy your cruise.

We were in a Havana Cabana on The vista in September and YES at night they had awesome Cuban Music.

You will make it.  This is why it is always a good idea to come in the day before.  You just never know.

Hope all went well.  Happy Sailing!!!

Alrighty, it’s time to head for the airport and see if we still get out tonight.
