Hi everyone, we just booked on the Sirena from Papeete to Los Angeles on May 19, 2017. I was on the Marina with my husband from Papeete to Sydney last February 2016 and it was amazing :cool: but this one is with a goodfriend with whom I been on Oceania twice!

We are well travelled ladies from Montreal looking to join existing pre-arranged group excursions or form new ones. We are interested in excursions including snorkeling in Polynesia and Islands tours in Hawaii so please get back to me ASAP as this cruise inscoming soon 😉 We are sooo looking forward to be on Oceania once more and make new friends!

Hi, I totally understand your frustration... I am a well travelled women early 50, taking a minimum of 4 trips a years and been on many cruises and same here, this is our first time willing to experience Oceania (been on Azamara and loved it), and what a bad start... we thought we had made a good move booking on July 27th on the Nautica leaving Athens on October 25th 2013 (a very good internet offer for a 10 days itinerary to Barcelona)and I am trying to get an acceptable return flight schedule from Oceania, I have been struggling with them for 2 weeks, first trying to deviate and arrive 2 days earlier in Athens (their arrival flight offer were only acceptable with an additional 400$pp with great return flights offered...) and now that we waited to know the actual included schedule without deviation before deciding about a deviation, we find out that the arrival flights on the actual day the ship leaves is exactly what we had asked them as a deviation for an arrival 2 days earlier (but offered to us for an add. 400$p.p.) and currently the proposed return flights is a "milk run" with 2 transfers return flights through Madrid and New York (we live in Montreal and we specified not willing to go through the US) instead of the 1 stop schedule we were offered and accepted last week...

It is our first time booking a cruise with flights included (we've been offered 850$ credit to book our own but this is not enough to cover the flights cost on our own) but I am still hoping Oceania will make it right for us and get us on an acceptable flight schedule and I will let know Cruise Critic members...

Anyone else out there who got that problem and have suggestions for getting Oceania to act in accordance with our “simple” flights demands?
