It seems many of the crowding issues have to do with the MDR. We had always used open dining until a recent NS cruise on which after a drink was spilled on me accidentally they took us upstairs and said if we wanted, we could have that table for late seating. We decided to try it and realized we usually eat at the same time anyway and if we didn't we could always just go downstairs. As a result there was no wait on either the NS or K in our recent cruises. You walk in and go to your table, no lines. And you get to know the staff who would remember I wanted coffee with my desert even though I usually forgot to mention it untill the desert came. The only crouwding I felt on either was at the Blues Club although that is what you want at a club.

When did they move the World Stage Shows to 8:00pm? In previous cruises it has always been 9:00pm. We will be on the Jan 30 cruise. With an 8:00pm show one must eat by 6:30. Too early for me. So either show before dinner or no show.

I have noticed that there is no HIA offered on Grand Voyages. That is, even though there are some longer non Grand Voyages that offer HIA. Anyone know why this is? Is there some special pricing for drinks and wifi on GV's?

OK How does one do a Future Cruise Request?

Thanks I will start looking with more earnest in late Jan or Feb

I see some early 2025's

Looking at the 51-day Tales of the South Pacific.

I am interested in a cruise that usually departs in late Sept. or early Oct. I am looking to book for 2025. When should I expect to see it listed? Thanks Lance

We will be following along as well as hoping to meet you on the ship. See you at the M&G. Lance and Jen
