My wife and I will be on the same cruise celebrating or 20th anniversary. Unfortunately, Silver Note has been totally booked since we had access. I look at it as a first world problem. Maybe we will be able to get in onboard. We are hoping to get into one of the Chef's Table dinners. See ya in a few weeks!

I notice our May Nova trip is now much more $$$ than when we booked, but is part of the "promotion" on the site. My guess is they jacked up the price to cover the upgrade and OBC. When we booked our Superior Verands there was $1k off pp and our TA got us $250 pp OBC.

Curious if they are rotating craft beers as they change countries. We are doing Nova in MAY for an Alaska cruise.

Unfortunately, GoldStar tickets are sold out the date of departure for the cruise we are looking at.

I apologize if this is repetitive. I tried to search but did not find clear answer. We are booking P2P. For Silversea train charter to Seward, where does the train depart? I have the impression if not D2D, would have to take transportation back to airport terminal to catch the Silversea train. Is this accurate?

We are looking at booking similar dates for a trip from ATL. Wondering if it would just be easier to do D2D. Have friend/agent checking on cost to upgrade to business class for flight since leg more than 5 hours.

Just booked our excursions. The site was not adjusting pricing once 5 excursions were selected. As said in a prior post, we called O directly and had the excursions booked in 5 minutes. All 5 booked received the 25% discount and we still have a small credit balance left from the $800 SM excursion credit to be used.

I have enjoyed your posts. DW and I are looking forward to our first cruise since 2004. I, too, know something will go wrong. I base this on the fact I have been on the hotel industry for my 25+ year professional career. As you say, it will be how the team on ship reacts that will make the difference. Cruise well.

Thank you for the detailed reviews. We will be doing our first O cruise (only our 2nd cruise in 19 years) departing from Barbados on Insignia. I appreciate the time and detail provide. We are looking forward to our trip.
