Many promos are not combinable with royal. When I get Amex one my experience is it shows up in planner. Have ta, or Amex travel, get confirmation if combinable.

Just off Oceania. I asked for slider Kobe alone as an appetizer. Mine looked nothing like anything above. Have half to my son. To us just a small hamburger with no real taste. Everything else was great surf and turf at waves was a huge hit for my son.

Thanks, I did just send email to hopefully get the packet. I leave July 5 but I keep so much stuff from all my cruises so my son will have it later in life. What bugs me is I broight this up weeks ago and they just did not care. New person seems great but hopefully her hands are not tied...

I'm checked in. I just thought it would be cool to check it out.

Hi I never received my pre cruise packet in mail. I read about it on cruise critic. It turns out Oceania sent to travel agent and my ta quit and works for another agency. Original ta company screwed up and can't find packet. This went back and forth for weeks until now they said Oceania takes three weeks to recreate. I'm told by ta , new company, that Oceania only sends out boarding passes in packet. My question is what is in packet they send out? Thanks

I am not only not licensed for advice or willing to go into it on a piblic forum. Not all Fixed rate ones risk capital but interest. All I was saying $695 in second year for free, Centurion, hotel status, minor Saks, Priority pass etc are a great value for road warriors plus OBC for several cruise lines. In my case I also have Business Plat so lots or redundencies. I plan on not renewing business one. Remember "free" one also requires $5000 monthly transfer into account, which can be transferred out shortly after.

My experience is when ta uses card you get refund. Plus my ta has website to 300 obc and wine tasting for any cabin type for Oceania. Google Amex cruise privilege program.

I have this one. It's Morgan Stanley version. Pretty easy to setup. Now with fixed rated annuities over 4 percent it might be better go get 1000 in interest vs 695, free authorized user and several other perks.

Did you do NAAT at 2 days or 3 days. Walgreens site says test is between anitigen and PCR.

Thanks for advice. I'd 1-2 day PCR but my concern is holiday and going to a lab vs. in house at Walgreens. If we take PCR on 2nd, results might not be done in time for flight on 4th and even cruise on 5th.

It seems Walgreens has Antigen (never avaialable), PCR 1-2 days and NAAT couple of hours. Since our cruise if 07/05 and we are commuting 07/04. With holiday best option is NAAT. IS that valid for Oceania? Oceania website is specific to antigen and PCR. Does anyone have an experience with NAAT from walgreens?

Thanks. I'd agree seems like better options. I think in waves there would be something similar..

Is Kobe beef at polo grill more of a hamburger or steak? Is it worth to choose for main course?

I had 400 obc from ta company promo. Not sure of rule. What your saying is bring proof to ship and bring to reception they may be able to add 100 obc

I received emails directly to me about dinner reservations. None for Bermuda $40 fee (I read other places and did pay) None for itinerary July 5 cruise. Not sure if they were offering bids for upgrades.

Thanks. There is a side of me that says share. We've had some great dinners in other cruise lines, never really a bad one. We've been on three since restart. Most times we all engage like nothing wrong with a 13 year old at time. Most seen to happy to include my son. I brought it up here because I've read many Oceania posts that feel Oceania is for adults and want to avoid minors. I don't want other people to feel like we are a burden.

Thanks for replies. I consider him to be well behaved, very high iq, over 160 and third in state for scholastic bowl. He clearly will fit in most conversations, if engaged. He is fine with sharing or eating two dinners. One normal time, one at 9pm:)

Hi. At 45 days reservations opened up. Since I'm traveling with my 14 year old I reserved to have private table. I did this because so many negative comments about bringing a minor on Oceania.. Only 9 pm was open for both restaurants. When I select random table option many earlier times opened up. It seemed I could add a third reservation (second for one restaurant) but I did not complete to see if it would complete. My question is 9pm only option to dine at private table? I did do at exactly 45 days.
