Thank you Paulchili and LHT28 and Travelcat.
Hope to see you all onboard a cruise to Havana.

PW has not been onboard Oceania for some time. In the past year or so, Oceania did have another art auction company but they are no longer onboard.
However, on Marina and Riviera we do have the Artist Loft and do allow the resident artist to sell his or her art to our guests including special commissions.
On occassion (maybe 2 or 3 times per year), like we just had onboard Marina from NYC to Southampton, we may have a VIP Art Auction cruise, whereby the Art Company brings onboard 20-30 of their known art collector clients along with a substantial art collection which they auction off. All ship guests are allowed to participate if they wish.

Flossie009- many thanks. New pieces, art and game tables etc, will be installed in approximately 8 weeks.
Mudhen- Should have torn them down during the Drydock! We have selected new pieces to replace the existing but are trying to figure out how best to install during service.

Our relationship with PW has ended very amicably.
Perhaps in the future, we'll host 2 to 3 VIP art sailings each year alongside PW.
As to the spaces once occupied by the art auctions, here's what we're planning:
VOYAGER- will become a high end boutique, jewelry, watches, leather goods
NAVIGATOR- will become jewelry boutique
MARINER- 4 game tables (chess/backgammon etc) and an additional seating ensemble will be installed along with new art along the long wall.

WIKS- absolutely NOT true.
We have never and never will, block or otherwise take inventory off line.
We are in the business of selling staterooms, not harding them!,

YES, I'm serious.
30 days and no Burma.
The 35 day Bangkok to Istanbul on Nautica does include Burma.

Anything for you Laraine.

Too funny Orchestrapal!
But I do want all to know that we're working harder than usual on coming up with new itineraries. We clearly see how quickly new and unique itineraries sell out, so it's in our best interest too do so.
I'm always eager for input and suggestions, so I am appreciative of the 11 ideas.
Itineraries for winter 14/15 will be released in mid-September and I do think Pacheco18 and Potterhill will both be pleased.
BTW, Paulchili, tell me again what your preference(s) are for new itineraries. Look forward to hearing all your good ideas.
Just remember a couple of key considerations when formulating your ideas and perfect sailing:
1) ship travels at 18 knots Max.
2) fuel is not available at all ports
3) need an airport nearby for embark/debark
Thanks for caring.

LEESRE- I've never heard of this beverage, but will ask our F&B dept to look into availability immediately.

If anyone wishes to be removed from our postal mail list and/or our e-mail list, please e-mail me at Frankdelrio@prestigecruiseholdings.com and I will see that your name and address is removed. The last thing we want to do is upset or annoy our past guests and waste money doing so.
My apologies.

Dear GUI888:
Winking not necessary. The Surf and Turf is printed on the menu board alongside all the other goodies like the Wygua Beef Burger........
FDR

We've never had a surf & turf burger.
I can confirm however, that we still have our world famous surf & turf sandwich consisting of sliced grilled lobster and sliced filet Mignon served on ciabatta bread and accompanied by hand cut truffle fries dusted with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.

Marketing Girl- I have not been back (left on August 22, 1961), and while I'm not political, I won't go until Cuba is FREE! I truly hope you enjoy your visit and wish I could go with you.
I've publicly said that my last remaining dream is to cruise into Havana Harbor OnBoard one of our ships,and possibly celebrate the inauguration of our next new ship there.
It's only been 53 years, all we need is patience!
