  1. You can buy the package mid cruise but at full freight so not a good idea. If you want it get it as soon as you embark. Any bartender will be happy to get you signed up. American $$$ is the standard currency aboard,
  2. Skagway has a high end jewelry store every three or four doors - all owned by the cruise lines. Very high pressure - they will all but drag you in by your hair.
  3. I wonder what Viking charges if they go missing.
  4. Had them at breakfast enough times that I should have gotten a tasty one by now - but no! Maybe you are lucky (or I am unlucky) or have a different definition of delicious. I have yet to get a good rib eye at Manfredi's as well despite the glowing reports.
  5. Looking good and being good are two different things. I have yet to consume a "lam" chop aboard a Viking ship that was not incredibly devoid of flavor.
  6. I don't believe included sells out but they need you to reserve so they know how many to accommodate.
  7. No. You can get whatever you want at any time with or without the package.
  8. Viking is clearly slipping a bit. Service staff with huge broad smiles only takes things so far.
  9. Whose $4000 did they keep? Theirs or yours?
  10. First quality/quantity declines and then price goes up. Sound familiar? Looking for the "choke point."
  11. All kinds of U-Tube clips of people frantically running/waving down the pier as the ship pulls away. Not necessarily Viking ships. Those people are commonly referred to as "idiots."
  12. Sounds like a fine print deal, unfortunately. They've got lawyers stacked in huge piles. How many you got?
  13. And ----- DO NOT view the times as gospel. Example: They had us on an excursion in Norway while the ship sailed away.
  14. 1. He gets paid for the work he does. 2. Getting you back safely is part of that work.
  15. Americans are idiots when it comes to tipping. The word is out.
  16. And don't miss the "menu" in the diner. Good humor!
