  1. The only place with a real espresso machine o. Moon is Arts cafe. Everything else push button and undrinkable
  2. Might bring my Nespresso machine. Lol
  3. I am in queens grill with a drinks package thanks to a great promotion
  4. First leg ends tomorrow. I will be glad to get to slightly warmer temps cd Roy Perez is leaving the ship. We are getting brand new cd who comes from regent. I did not catch his name but I think he goes by initials like jb or jp. I will report back. Maybe some of you know who it is?
  5. Do they have a real espresso machine on board or are they all the push button type?
  6. But is there a place to get good coffee
  7. Let me tell you about the 3 out of control toddlers on silver moon with me now and they have Nannies a luxury cruise is no place for small children
  8. Thanks for asking. I have same question
  9. We have been on Cunard but only in Queens grill so. I really can’t answer The Cunard board is a great place to post your question. It is a wealth of information cunard is Sui generis nothing else like it and it is not for everyone
  10. But what is happening on board is nothing like the photo. These folks are not on this cruise
  11. I have spoken to every relevant officer on board about the issue. The current dress code is unenforceable and they look like fools. Other lines like regent and explora are resort casual which is what most cruisers prefer. Younger passengers might not even own a tie! the common sense solution imo is to go formal optional. Those who want to wear tuxes and gowns can do so. everyone else can either wear jacket or smart casual those nights (no jacket). This will not cause the sky to fall.
  12. I dont need to be schooled on the process but thank you anyway. What is laughable is that anyone is claiming oc refunded money. It did not
  13. Hot rocks. La terraza. Pizza restaurant not a problem
  14. But there is not an iota of enforcement. Jeans and sweatsuits in view in Atlantide on formal nights. I spoke to first time ss cruiser today. She was aghast
  15. Refunded by Crystal??? Laughable. It never ends
  16. This first leg of itinerary boring I thought these small Icelandic towns would be interesting they are not. Lol also am hating the cold last time we were in iceland in July we had fab weather cold impacts our dining choices. Pool grill and hot rocks too cold. I prefer not to eat with blanket on me cant blame cruise line for weather There have been food and service glitches but they have been resolved to my satisfaction second leg is uk so should be better port wise and weatherwise every cruise is different. my last regent cruise was Cape Town to Buenos Aires. Really can’t compare. we enjoy ss regent and just had fab cruise on seabourn
  17. Nord worked for me on Seabourn and Regent Blocked on silversea. I tried everything vypr working flawlessly
  18. Because the policy on board is to ignore those who ignore the dress code. Once a passenger sees that he has no incentive to dress up on the next formal night a rule that is not enforced is not a rule at all if some lone asked me about the dress code on this ship, I would tell them what is stated but also that there is no enforcement
  19. BA transfer i have used them a dozen times reasonable prices extremely reliable
  20. A more relaxed dress code like formal optional is way easier to enforce imo. Look at regent grandeur. Ultra luxe ship. No tie required
  21. Remember this is one cruise. And it’s a cold weather cruise in Iceland. People are wearing parkas and wool hats. it might be different on a transatlantic, Mediterranean or Caribbean cruise this cruise is very different from my 2 prior cruises on the Moon in many ways
  22. I really don’t care what others wear. But I was asked to comment on whether the dress code was enforced. The answer is no. are most people compliant? Yes Are most guests dressed in formal attire? Tuxes and gowns? No.
  23. So I had a meeting with the exec chef about some food issues and I asked if he ever makes tarte tatin ( my favorite)he replied special order only and you shall have tomorrow night divine
