Keep a look out for head waitress Irina! She moved from Royal to Sky and was phenomenal on our 3 sailings on Royal this year!

 

Thanks for posting all of this - ship looks stunning!

We found Irina!  She is fantastic.  We also found a great waiter,  Philip.   He has taken great care of us!  Dining before Philip was mediocre,.  We are now very happy.

No plugs.  Need an extension cord to reach the desk plug.

Does the drink package cover drinks at Princess Cay?

There are plenty of other excursions, but the 7 hour excursion is just a boat trip through the canal and back. I took a 3 hour where you get to see the construction of the new canal and then see the locks up close from shore.

We know people who took that excursion. It does the same thing as when you go through the canal on the ship the next day. You see the same thing twice.

We went back last night to Prime 7 and had a very God meal. Top notch meal and service. Regent is back on track doing an excellent job.

Somebody from Regent is reading this. Somehow they tracked me down and are working hard to fix things. Hats off to them for being proactive. Now I know why this is my fifth Regent cruise.

Yes we left out of Miami. You are right about the inspections, but we were late leaving because of computer problems.

Thanks for the suggestion about talking to the F&Brenner manager.

On another note that is not Regents fault, we will probably miss our first port. We had a medical emergency last night. We had to turn around so the helicopter could reach us. Between leaving late, bad weather, and medical emergency we will miss our first port.

I am presently on the Mariner. This is my fifth regent cruise in 4 years and so far I am very disappointed on this cruise. It started off badly when they could not get their computers to work for embarkation. It took over 2 hours to get on board.

I was able to get a reservation to Prime 7 for the first night. The steak was cold and very tough. Worst meal I have ever had on Regent. Other people at the table felt the same way.

Then I looked at my excursions that I had booked. I was missing one. Turns out the excursion was canceled after I signed up for it. No email or phoenix call. Just cancled. So now I am waiting listed for an excursion. Disappointed.

Next I went to the exercise room. The TV did not work on any of the machines.

Last I went to get on my free internet. I was told. I was now told it would cost me. My Butler got that fixed.

Not trying to be grumpy but this is a rough start for an 18 day cruise.

We are on this cruise in three weeks with the Denali side trip. I am curious how the Denali trip was. Plus who is the current cruise director?

We took this cruise last year. The weather was very rainy and overcast. I know weather in Alaska is always iffy, but we feel it would probably be better later in the summer. Loved leaving out of San Francisco. But we got very bored on sea days. If I had it to do over I would definitely go later in the summer.
