My hubby tried to order woodford and it was going to be 25.00. I don’t consider that top shelf. We confirmed with the beverage manager that it was 25.00, even though we paid for Orestige. Anything over 18.00 is the full price. But that’s the thing about “self-service” - my point is you can self serve the iced tea, lemonade, all condiments but no ice.

This is our 30th cruise, but first on Vista. We have been on the majority of the lines. Vista is gorgeous and the food outweighs the others, in my opinion. I’m providing this information because my hubby and I keep saying “does that make sense?” Maybe it doesn’t matter to others, but it is some of the things I didn’t know before this cruise. * there is no ice machine. You have to ask for ice that they get from an ice chest. I was walking around the Terrace Cafe in search of ice and was baffled that there are fill stations for ice tea and lemonade, but no ice. * if you upgrade your drink package, which we did, and a drink cost 25.00, you pay the whole 25.00. We are use to Celebrity where you would just pay the difference between the max (18.00) and the 25.00. * if you have an 11:00 arrival time reserved, they call the higher cabins for noon and later first. My hubby and I kinda looked at each other funny when at 11:15 they called the noon suites. Happy sailing!

How does dinner reservations work on the nights we are not booked in specialty ones?
