Should have said -- we were on Regatta 14 September. Disembarked day you got on. I suspect you had a fine time celebrating Jan's special day! The exec chef Gabrielle from Northern Italy presented exquisite, fabulous meals! O really had "The Finest Cuisine at Sea"on our voyage. We ate in TC for almost all meals .

I Was on with Jan in September 2023.

Just off Regatta, one day had 2 different shows: 5:30 pre-dinner, and regular 9:30 show. Agree, very rare to have a pre-dinner show. Embarkation day was a 9:15 show. Really enjoyed the production shows with 6 young, talented and energetic cast members.

V raised the cost of SSBP to USD $25 pppd.

Signed up for emails many times over 5 years. Also received acknowledgement email, yet Have never received any.

Really enjoyed the Montaudon French Champagne on recent Regatta voyage. Retails for about $47 in Delaware. No sales tax in Delaware.

@QuestionEverything See the topic... Just back from France intensive by @Sleep7 for her day by day review. Lots of info and photos about her experience on AZ. A good way to see how AZ compares to O.

@Sleep7 Thank you for your wonderful review. Really enjoyed reading about your Azamara France experience. Continued good health!

@Sleep7 Hello my friend from the VO board. Thanks for posting this link. I started reading, but only on PG. 2. Anxious to read the whole thing! You are such a great reviewer, lots of good info and photos , and very positive. Best wishes for a complete and speedy recovery. Your sunny, positive attitude assuredly helped you deal with the treatments and recovery. We cruised with AZ in 2008, a TA, very new, when owned by RCL. Really enjoyed it, and was staffed with people we knew from X. Have not been back, no particular reason, but it is on my radar. They have lots of inclusions, which appeal to me.

Page 2 of your O invoice lists CXL policy and penalties for all O items. If not in penalty phase, Cancelled Shorex will be refunded to original form of payment, either Credit card or back to OBC. Book shorex in advance to secure confirmed space.

For BPG to apply, voyage must have availability in "your" Category. If lower price after FP, O may give OBC instead.

No surprise here: Greece: Chania, Crete Nafplion Volos Thessaloniki Athens Spain: Barcelona Malaga Funchal, Madeira Portugal Old San Juan

Will be on Sirena 19 November 2024. Is that your cruise?

Yes, an O tradition! Just off Regatta -- they had it on embarkation day. Delicious!

All were available on Regatta. Just loved the lamb chops, shrimp and lobster tails, all cooked to one's preference. They did not run out!

A well connected TA with O will be able to get OBC after FP. I know this as fact from another pax, who did receive OBC after FP, when their voyage went on a sale. Suggestion: On your next O cruise, ask a few other guests who they use as TA, and you may find several pax who will tell you the name of the same well connected O agent/agency. That's how I found such an agency, after about 15 years using the same large Internet agency.

@Jim_Iain Thanks for your running commentary and all those photos.

Suggestion: Before booking Oceania cruise, Oceania Air, or any other item with Oceania, read and understand the Terms and Conditions applicable thereto.

Aquamar kitchen has not been installed on Regatta. Some day we'll be on Vista.

Philly guy here. Finally tried the Waves Philly Cheesesteak. Not the same, but how could it be!

Sorry, off topic, but mentioned here. On Regatta now. Enjoying Montaudon French Champagne. I think it's very fine; and available with SM.
