Aloha 1

Oh, the dilemma. Lobster roll or smoke meat ( corned beef in the USA).

New dill for me!

Apparently there is no longer a walk in closet in the PH's

Well, if you're a guy, mirror and lighting don't matter.😆

Sorry, but a walk-in closet hides all the "stuff" you toss in there and keeps the rest of the cabin neat. It also doubles as a dressing room and a place to store your luggage.

That closet in the PH is a HUGE mistake. Reminiscent of something you'd find on a mass market line. What a shame.

And so I conclude that nobody knows what the actual schedule is for the Starlink upgrade on O ships. I understand the science from this who posted about usage, pipeline, etc., but the "proof in the pudding" is after it's installed and real life tested. So, Unless anyone has actual knowledge of the install schedule, I'll leave you to your bandwidth discussions. (Full disclosure, I spent 17 years working for Honeywell and Digital in a previous life)

Oh how I miss my lake perch!

Ok, so interesting conversation BUT does not answer my question as to what the schedule for installation is. Anyone else ?

With Vista launching with Starlink this week, does anyone know what the installation schedule is for Riviera, Marina, and the rest of the fleet?

We've been in 10016 many times and no issue with excess motion. Non drowsy Dramamine can be your best friend if you are that prone to mal de mare.

We were on Explorer this past October and found zero faults. Wonderful ship and excellent crew.

It's an Oceania Suite. It should be as comfortable as on Riviera or Marina. Enjoy!

I second @jwinham. A Deck 12 is only on Riviera or Marina. You will love your Oceania Suite..

I assume you are on the Miami to Barbados cruise. American Airlines is the best (and maybe only choice) to fly direct back to MIA from Barbados . We took the air credit and booked our own. It's only a 4 hour flight and I would HIGHLY suggest you book your own air on the AA 4:40 PM flight now.

We will board our 10th Oceania cruise this year. Do the O Club Silver benefits take effect ON that cruise or after? Such as the $250 OBC and free gratuities. Anyone have actual experience with this?

Given the increasing number of days where TV is not available due to "port interference", I hope they can do the downlinks from Starnet.

We were on the previous cruise from Santiago to BA by way of Antarctica . South America was experiencing an early fall in terms of weather. Yes, the ship was cold at times but when the outside temp is at best only in the upper 50's... As to Covid, there were a few, and I emphasize few, cases but no crew wore masks and we were not aware of anyone with covid having serious issues ( we knew 2 people who had it and twiddled their thumbs in their suites for 5 days before being released) We thought the food was fine in all venues except for POLO where the service was atrociously slow as usual. Terrace, Jacques, Red Ginger were superb. I agree about the CD, very annoying. The weather caused us to miss two stops. Puerto Chacabuco, Chile, due to thunderstorms ,high seas, and 40 mph winds and Elephant Island, Antarctica due to ice fog and ice flows ( no desire to reenact Titanic. ) In both cases the Captain clearly explained the reasons why we were avoiding those stops. We also thought Marina was in GREAT shape and all in all we had a great cruise.

Thanks!

Can you take the train from the cruise port at Tyne?

12012 is larger than 11080.

I have been on 3 Oceania cruises in the last 7 months. Either you have a logistics and procurement issue with food OR the decision was made to cut back. Which is it? Also, will you fast track Starlink wifi on Oceania? It is time to come into the 21st century.

Just off a 20 day Marina cruise. Plenty of fruits and vegetables plus plant based items (if that floats your boat).

How is the weather on deck in Antarctic waters?
