I agree with Sheila, Rick and Advocado - the people I've spoken with at Regent over the years have been helpful and were able to resolve whatever issue I called about.

Peggy

Thank you for your service.

I'm pretty sure MedJet does cover people over 80 - it's more expensive that at a lower age but worth it when you need it.

I was 75 when I fell and broke my hip in Mexico on a vacation with my kids. I was picked at the hospital, flown home and brought to the local hospital at home. On a small Lear jet. I renew every year.

I don't have the phone number but the web site says you need to call if you are over 74 . . . .

I was able to update my information for the Navigator 1/8/18 party - I didn't go any further tonight but will in the next few days.

There are special events for the Full Cruisers during the World Cruise - some on board and some on shore - but on a daily basis, all passengers are treated the same.

I think the contract with Smithsonian expires at the end of this year and going forward Regent will return to hiring the lecturers.

Terry Bishop: although he may be listed as a Smithsonian lecturer, he also has a direct connection to Regent and will continue to sail on the ships. He is booked on most of the 2018WC.

I was on a Christmas Market River cruise last year and loved it - and the Glühwein as well!

>>Regent Seven Seas Cruises: We are happy to confirm that both Jamie and Dana will be onboard for 2018 World cruise. We will announce more officers in the next coming weeks. Stay tuned!<<

looking forward to hearing what you have to say!

Peggy

There are also outlets by the bed but I don't remember what type.

Peggy

Tina,

It would be fun to sail with you and your Mom again . . .fingers crossed!

Peggy

Thanks Tina,

And Jamie and Dana will be CD/ACD . . . . . .

We were told that some of the staff from 2017 would be back but I'd like a little more confirmation . . .

Peggy

Reggie . . where are you?!

Rallydave,

I emailed you

Peggy

keeping my fingers crossed!

I'd like to know too!

Peggy

Please ignore my posting above. Correct for Regent's '19WC but not for answering ellbon's question.

Peggy

Visas for the 2019WC: Australia, China, India, Myanmar, Vietnam.

The only one which is complicated is the one for India - the form asks for lots of details. The Visa agency suggested by Regent was very helpful for the '17WC.

Sheila,

Have you asked your TA to get a complete list and email it to you? That might work.

Peggy

Yea Drib!

There is a thread posted on the Crystal board with good information for first time cruisers. Worth reading.

Thanks for the postings!

Just curious - what are the names of the Captain, GM and CD?

Thanks . . .Peggy

The only people who see my card are Security when I leave/return to the ship. And I suppose it someone looks over my shoulder when I use the key to go into my cabin.

What the color of the stripe is, is irrelevant.

Peggy

This is what's posted on the Regent web site. I do know they closed early yesterday (1pm?). Remember, they have a phone answering group/office in Omaha.
