  1. Oceania's customer service can be a problem at times. Cruise is coming soon, it took me 5 mins to print out mail and mail it. Cost me a dollar to confirm my 250.00. , go figure
  2. I emailed them and sent snail mail. Took about 3 weeks.
  3. My wife is a strick vegetarian, no fish or chicken. We've been on 8 Oceania cruises, she has never had a problem in any of the restaurants..... maybe too much food.
  4. Have your T/A or Oceania have your flight ticketed. Sometimes they can not do this for up to 3 months before cruise. It may take several calls, but it usually gets done and you can pick out seats. If you are flying on Turkish air.... good luck. They don't seem to care about customer service.
  5. We just booked a 25 day cruise for Oct 24. This put us into Silver and it show up in our updated profile. Once the deposit was paid it bumped up. Was nice to see all gratuities paid by silver level.
  6. There were about 50 people in our pre-cruise excursion. About half of them had overweight bags, I didn't see anyone being charged for being overweight.(it's in the flight info for the flight from Delhi to Mumbai) Just make sure your Visa is correct and stamped properly when you enter. Several couples missed half the 1st day dealing with customs. Oceana's pre cruise excursion was well planned and Hotel nice. I recommend it. They can't control Custom's and the Police. Fake cops did flagg down our 2 buses, our main guide is related to a Police Captain, cops let us go....go figure
  7. We did the pre cruise India about 8 months ago. India customs, airport and cruise-port security is a mess. Went to 4 ports after Mumbai, Visa has to be perfect, if it is not stamped right when you fly in to Delhi, you will have problems. They also have lower weight limits on airline bags on domestic flights(Your flight from Delhi to Mumbai) Read all the fine print on Visa and flight in India. We enjoyed India, but half the pre-cruise Oceania travelers were happy to get out of India.
  8. Turkish air is a nightmare, our TA and Oceania had major issues dealing with them. Sometimes you can't avoid flying with them.
  9. We had to use Turkish air out of Istanbul last year, booked by a TA, with oceania air. Will never fly Turkish air again, if I can avoid them. TA and Oceania air dept could not contact Turkish air to upgrade seats. I attempted to call many times, their customer service is a joke. We were able to upgrade all other flights, just Turkish air. Security at airport was kinda crazy too, maybe it was a bad day. We have a cruise in 6 weeks. Had TA contact Oceania air dept, to get flights ticketed. They did and I was able to upgrade seats on Delta and Iceland air.
  10. There are 4 Concierge (A1) cabins on deck 12, 12002-5. Any reviews or advice on these cabins. I have one booked for 2 weeks in 9/23 om Marina.
  11. They are between the Oceania suite and Vista suites, my mistake for not being clear. Cabin #s 12012 thru 12005.
  12. Looking for reviews of these concierge cabins. They look like a nice location between vista suites.
  13. We had 2 ports in Turkey and flew out of Istambul. After about 5 security checks to fly out, no one ever asked for our Visa. I would still get one, airport security was a mess.
  14. Peanutlover, why are you so rude to posters giving their opinnion. I may not agree with Mark, he is just sharing his way of dealing with embarcation. Relax and have alittle wine.
