We're going to be on Quest from Sept 12 through Oct 6, 2024. Then we get back onboard November 27, 2024 through January 13, 2025. Looks like you'll be on in between our two cruises...poor timing!

Likewise, for the past week I haven't been able to view the daily menus for Quest, which is the ship we will be next sailing. Hope it's just a temporary situation

What are some examples of external stakeholders in this situation?

Thanks for that information, Rob. On my upcoming Serenity cruise, which is 15 nights and which appears to be well-booked, I've been able to schedule one reservation each for the three restaurants, but I'll need to schedule the second allowed reservation for each of the restaurants once onboard. Is it this kind of reservation you're talking about being difficult to get, or do you mean it will be difficult to get reservations beyond the second ones? Thanks again.

I hear you, but that's getting harder and harder to do these days.

Why do you say that? I see that the T&C state that the program applies to cruises after January 1, 2023, but I have also heard on CC (which, of course, is not official), that previous cruises with OC would still count towards earned benefits. Any why do we need to be discussing this at all? You would think that Crystal would make some mention of this in their T&C...although perhaps that's what the January 1, 2023 statement means.

If you have an invoice from Old Crystal, check it. The milestone levels did show up on those invoices, but they no longer do.

The Terms and Conditions state that the Crystal Society Program applies to voyages beginning January 1, 2023. Does that mean our previous credits from OC no longer will be honored? I believe it was reported here on CC that previous cruises would still count towards the various rewards.

Actually, I don’t own a tuxedo. I was just showing off that I can spell “cummerbund.”

So, it's two votes for a BTO night on June 25 and one vote against. As Meatloaf melodiously said, two out of three ain't bad. Time to search for the old cummerbund

Here's the first seven days from my itinerary, Tracie. It's different from yours, but I don't know why that would be.

Thanks, Keith. That's good to know. When I look at my upcoming Serenity cruise, which is 15 days (actually, it's a B2B, 8 days and 7 days), every day is listed as "Resort Casual." I thought that there would be one formal night on the 8 day segment, right? Does that mean I won't have to starch and press my cummerbund?

I'm not sure this is a stalling tactic. Just ask Shohei Ohtani.

Sorry to hear that. Seems that Seabourn doesn't want to wait until the last minute to adjust their itineraries, which is a good thing. Very interested to know what the new itineraries will be...they didn't give you any idea?

Hmmm, looks like the suite host and the suite attendant are the two crew members who service your cabin. I'm guessing that the host is the senior of the two, while the attendant does most of the work. Btw, scrolling down the page to "Seabourn Cruise Suite Amenities," the Ocean View suites are checked off for having a "spacious veranda." I don't think so.
