  1. For the devotees it doesn’t matter they are booking my ta — owner of huge on line cruise agency— not one crystal booking. Not one deposit He books tons of luxury cruises. He considers pricing insane not sure the big crystal fans on cc are reflective of the larger world of luxury cruisers time will tell
  2. We can disagree about food forever for us the best part of crystal food was the lunch buffet and prego and the light fare at the bistro we disliked silk, found waterside so so, and avoided the churrasqueria. Great food but way too heavy food was not what attracted us to crystal
  3. It’s the croutons that make the difference lol
  4. And you will love the food. Better than crystal and the chef made me Portuguese tarts
  5. Silversea has best variety of dining options of any cruise line I have sailed on, at least with respect to the newer ships they also have the dinearound menu and of course all that caviar and real gelato that is awesome There is good food on all the luxury lines. No one starves explora is supposed to have 9 restaurants. Can’t wait for someone to report on that
  6. Nonsense i have recently been on 2 ss cruises and 2 regent cruises. Every bit as good and in some aspects better than the old crystal. New crystal?? Who knows everyone I travelled with on those cruises felt the same way.
  7. More than one probably former crystal employees
  8. To me too guess he didn’t know I’m sailing elsewhere. Lol
  9. I didn’t sign up either getting emails
  10. Your ta will handle it all. Getting same cabin. Get discounts. I do b2bs all the time. Just got off voyager. Very easy for ta to handle
  11. Do you have a ta? Your ta will work it all out for you and get you the b2b discount.
  12. I am not discouraging you from regent but have you considered Disney to Alaska? Greatest for kids and lots of stuff for adults too.
  13. There are no highlights in Casablanca. Hire a private guide to take you to the mosque. It is wonderful
  14. I posted this in 2021. I think videos have changed. But seabourn does take wheelchairs in the zodiacs. I recently posted photo on disabled forum
  15. True: a regent rep won’t give you any obc Useless if you have a dispute with company….. solution: find a great ta obc and great service
  16. I’m on regent now. We made friends with a couple who booked directly. They got nothing. They now have my tas card. They booked on board and xferred cruise to my ta. Huge obc. Regent would have given them nothing best way to find a great ta is on the ship. I carry my tas card!! Many others do as well
  17. You wouldn’t unless you want to leave a lot of money on the table
  18. In prime 7 I ask them to add blue cheese crumbles and replace dressing with blue cheese dressing. Some classic recipes should not be altered
  19. At long last. Have a ball. See you on seabourn in April
  20. On this cruise (2 legs) we watched video for first leg and had regular muster drill second leg.
  21. There is plenty of casual wear after 6 pm. Not shorts or jeans but outfits I would not wear to dinner. Doesn’t bother me. Just my observation
