It’s not the easiest site to search, thank you for the instructions! I got frustrated with posters telling me to use the search function but you are the first to point out how to search this forum only. Thank you!

Previous poster is correct. It is a less than ideal system, but from what I have gathered stepping on Oceania is a Time Machine back a few decades. I am gluten free, autoimmune, and have zero expectations for “the finest cuisine at sea.” The most raved about dish, the sea bass for instance. Miso can be gluten free but not always. So if I order it in advance do I get plain sea bass without sauce? Who knows, it sounds like a gamble. I am baffled they can’t even list allergens on their menus, even for those choosing in advance. So I don’t expect fine cuisine, but expect that they will make me food I can eat and not get sick. Very much looking forward to the cruise and destinations! And ignore the “use the search function, this has been talked about” replies.

I found this for you. Third and fourth guests are charged 50%, but do not get the special O life offers. https://www.oceaniacruises.com/legal/terms-conditions/

Oh my apologies I didn’t know I was talking to the upmost authority on the subject random internet stranger. How dare I have the gaul to use an internet chat board to get information I did not have, or make you repeat yourself since you posted it months ago. In February when I signed up for our cruise they sent an e-mail with the wine bottle program attached. Thanks for the updated info. Cheers!

I am having a hard time finding info that this wine bottle program was discontinued. We were going to do that for an upcoming cruise so it would be disappointing if it was discontinued.

First thing I did after we booked was make a spreadsheet for the trip. Glad to see I am among like minded travelers! After several Disney trips in recent years with my young kids I am over the vacation app game. Especially last year, where I was on my phone all day securing lightning lanes, and up at 6:30 am everyday on vacation to buy a ticket in line for that afternoon. It was exhausting. I am excited for an adult vacation where I can put my phone down and RELAX. Mom will call when she is in port, haha.

On the Oceania website when I have the choice to buy a drinks package it also gives me the option to pre pay for gratuities. Is that the whole trip gratuities? Can I pre pay for them before I board? Thank you.
