  1. They were called an “Amuse Bouche”.
  2. The lack of IV's on the Sunset Verandah cabins has nothing to do with their popularity, IMO. They’ve been highly desirable for many years which is confirmed by the higher price point that X assigns them.
  3. The “infinite verandah” is supposed to “add” space to those particular cabins when opened. Suites are already larger in size so an “IV” isn’t necessary. IMHO.
  4. The decor reminds me of the SS Norway which was my first sailing on a cruise ship. There was a lot of “elegance “ back then. 😉😊
  5. Wow. What is going on? Why are guests abusing the staff? If I ever heard or witnessed any of the scenarios being discussed here, I would not hesitate to pick up the phone and call Guest Relations. X's officers need to deal to deal with these situations.
  6. I'm really surprised. We've sailed in the Retreat on Beyond and never witnessed anything like you are describing. I believe there are certain written rules of conduct that X has regarding guest's treatment of their staff. It will be interesting to see how this situation is handled.
  7. Thank you for this helpful information. 💜
  8. I'm glad that I saw this thread. We made Zenith last year. On our first cruise after reaching this milestone we thought there would be some sort of “initiation” or recognition. Neither happened. On the very next cruise we sailed on, there was a Zenith lunch which we were invited to. Just curious, I wonder if there are others who never were initiated?
  9. I would guess more like “Flemish Giant”. 😉
  10. I’ve only used FBC one time. We wanted to choose our seats at the time of booking instead of waiting many months until final payment. Even though FBC stated full payment wasn’t required, for some reason the system would not allow seat selection without full payment, so I paid. I realized then that there was no advantage, (for us) to use FBC.
  11. Our experience over many, many years of sailing with X has been that the demographic of their passengers is usually a wide range of ages. We have never seen “hordes of kids” on any of our cruises either.
  12. We've sailed exclusively with X for the past 10 years. Before the Edge ships came into service, Reflection was our favorite S-class ship. We sailed on her 9 times. I hope you will like her as much as we did.
  13. Sorry to burst your bubble, but YOUR toilet paper will be the same. 🙄
  14. My previous comment was referring to our personal situation as we normally book Sky Suites but really have no use for a Butler. Therefore we don’t need or want to be offered any form of compensation such as OBC, etc.. hence the YMMV. 😊
  15. Jackie's got good taste. 👍 So what’s your favorite?
  16. Not everyone booking a Sky Suite needs or wants a Butler. Some book for the location and a larger cabin. YMMV.
  17. I will probably regret this, but I have to ask… How would you know NMTTraveler had Playboy magazines ? 😳
  18. Absolutely. It's a favorite Texan saying. 😉
  19. Do you know how much they weigh? If flying, I'm pretty sure it would put you over your Airline weight allowance. 😉
