I apologize to you, Pudgesmom, if my response came across in any way negative...that was certainly not my intent. I have also had negative experiences but if I judge them to be isolated incidents then I do not post them so as not to discourage others. However, Regent, like any other company, has its shortcomings and I think those should be discussed here, mentioned in comment cards, pointed our to the GM and whatever other method is most appropriate for the circumstances in order to get the issue corrected. The positive experiences are mentioned by myself and my clients in great detail on the mid-term cruise card and the final cruise card along with names and specific examples. Good people are hard to find and Regent owes 95% of its success to its people.
