We have been advised to take our own reusable water bottle. Some people on our cruise are using the collapsible type. Better than plastic bottles. 👍

We were fortunate to land on Falklands on our sailing.We did the Battlefields tour to pay our respects to the Lads who lost there lives and remain there.
The week before the Princess ship got everyone on land who wanted to go but the weather turned so quick they could not tender back to ship.They stayed with locals for the night.
Its hardly worth watching the weather for the next trip as it changes in minutes.

2 things.
1.Regent is offering a Rocky mountaineer service and 4 days pre cruise.
2.We looked at doing our own thing a few years back and Via Railways came out best for price and comfort.They have good reviews.
Good luck.

We are staying on in Anchorage post cruise and wondered if anyone had found tours, accomodation and transfer to Seattle (eventually).Thank you.
-
Just wondering if anyone who has sailed Alaska to Anchorage, have stayed in Anchorage and done any tours for a few days?
Either that or stayed in Seattle for a few days.
We are looking at doing some private tours and accommodation post Alaska cruise in August/September.Thank you..

Such great information, thank you. We have sailed Royal Clipper twice. Sailing Star Clipper in March and I assume it will be much the same.

Hi. This is great. Thank you .
We go to Costa Rica beginning March.
Can you say the bar prices?
Is there a special ‘dress up’ evening?
Did you have a sea day?

We were on Marina when this all started, doing the Amazon trip. We had no previous notification except on the day of docking, sometimes an hour before. This lead to panic (with tender stops, especially) People who had made plans with private tour operators had to wait for tender tickets, placed after Oceania tours. They allowed a small handful of independents on each tender. This lead to a big delay for private tour operators awaiting passengers. Pity we weren’t notified prior to cruise so we could alert the tour operators.

A small number of cabins on Riviera still have a bathtub, for those who prefer one.
I just spent 2 weeks on Marina and we did have a wonderful cruise. The furniture has more than luggage scuff marks. Drapes, bedskirt, headboard and sofa fabric worn. Lights not working, robe hook broken off, cabin door didn't completely close. This wasn't specific to my cabin. All the necessary repairs were made promptly. Service and food excellent. Public areas in better condition than cabins. On Riviera this February and May and looking forward to the new cabin.
BTW, you no longer get a vanity mirror unless it's Concierge and above. When I called to say my mirror was missing, that's what reception said. I thought she was kidding. She wasn't! A $10 mirror is now an amenity for Concierge and above. What's next? The soap dish??
Not quite soap dish, but allowance of one shampoo each a week in concierge on Christmas sail. ! -
Thank you all for your responses. We have cancelled the two flights from Anchorage to Seattle and Seattle to Heathrow.
Now to sort out Anchorage flight and transfers! -
We have flights from Anchorage to Seattle then Seattle to Heathrow London in September.We want to keep the first leg but want cancel BAirways to Heathrow and use Virgin with air miles to upgrade.Regent has said we cannot cancel second leg only, we have to cancel both flights with them home.Is this normal?
-
Off Marina on 8th January and they definitely had HP sauce. It was original too!
-
On Marina it’s John. Quite boring as was his polo shirts daily.!
But his understudy, Marcus…..what a hoot. Really funny and very friendly. Great bright outfits. Seen around the ship alot . -
We went on waitlist for a OC.We didn’t want anything else for our special,occasion.We were advised on here (thank you everyone) to put down a deposit, which we did.We were informed where we were on the waitlist.We didn’t wait long and got what we wanted but the price was higher when we got through.

I fault the Marina Master and the GM. Neither was nowhere to be found. None of the officers were friendly - like saying hello. Neither matched our last two cruises on Seabourn or Regent where all the management would walk the ship regularly checking things out. On Marina nothing. Occasionally they would appear at barista -- but then to only to drink some coffee.
We saw the officers eating in The Terrace but as you said, no smiles or communication.I tried twice to see the GM, to no avail.Interrogation by Reception/concierge and excuses.I have to say that we had a problem in 12009 regards aerobic room above us being opened from 6am and someone jogging on the spot and banging the weights down hard at 6.30 waking us up daily.The spa manager worked hard to find the problem and do something about it with success.
The deputy CD was very good and more fun than John the CD.

Questions re Specialty Dining Reservations
in Oceania Cruises
Posted
It breaks my heart to hear someone who is gay is upset when prepping for a cruise. We are not gay, but we always ended up being friends with gays on most cruises.
We had alot of bookings in restaurants prior to our Amazon cruise as we had a high suite. I tried to work out the best days according to daytime activities. But we still dropped a few once on board.so I’m sure others drop or swap. We always felt Jacques was the worst restaurant on board but it turned out to be the chef and maitre de .(who walked off the ship one morning and never came back!!) This last cruise,Jacques was our favourite. The new head chef delivers food as his daily special, and is far better than any other plate on that ship, Marina. We walked out of red ginger and dropped our bookings, leaving table for two at 7pm available twice.
So there is hope Mark. It’s lovely to read all these positive comments for you.
You will get what you want at some point. 🥰
