Ships R Great Posted February 15, 2010 #26 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Does the restrooms have paper towels or just "blow" dryers? When we were on Mercury B2B in December there were very few times when the restrooms did not have cloth towels available. Very nice touch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cal516 Posted February 15, 2010 #27 Share Posted February 15, 2010 My wife & I plus another couple sailed on Mercury to ports on the US coast and the Bahamas, departing Baltimore on Jan 2nd. Aside from the unfortunetly cold weather for the duration of the cruise, it was simply delightful. Great food (about an A-), superb service, and friendly & accessable senior staff from the Captain on down. We had several conversations each with the Captain, the Director of Hotel Services, the Cruise Director, the Food & Beverage Manager, etc. Everyone obviously has different standards and maybe we are less demanding than some. ...

Rare Lois R Posted February 16, 2010 #28 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I read about people ordering room service and the Cova Cafe. Are these both included in the price or are these additional charges? (I understand drinks are additional.) Thanks for your help. I wish I could help you with your question but I have never ordered items in Cova through Room Service so I don't know. To be honest, I cannot remember ordering room service on any of my cruises:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuggers Posted February 16, 2010 #29 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Bear, I am on the 3/8/10 & 3/19/10 Mercury out of Charleston. They were both great prices. Couldn't resist!:D I'm booked on Mercury in March 2011 but nothing else so far. Will probably look for something around October, November this year. Would love to see you again! Ships, I thought you were booked on the March Mercury? Are you on February too??? D Chamless, take good care of Mercury. We will be getting on March 8th!

leanimal1 Posted February 16, 2010 #31 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Question we are on the Mercury March 19th and would like to know if they have a band around the pool playing Caribbean music. Last year we were on a cruise that did not play no caribbean music and we were dissappointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJD Posted February 16, 2010 #32 Share Posted February 16, 2010 In January we had a very good band called Fusion who played by the pool in the afternoon and in the nightclub in the evening. Think they will still be on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie2845 Posted February 16, 2010 #33 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hi Tuggers, We were booked on the Mercury this this month but had to cancel. Our nice is getting married over in Switzerland the third week in March so we are flying over for the wedding. You said you are looking for a cruise in October we're booked on a back to back to back in October. October 1st the same cruise we met you on 17 nights Panama Canal, then October 18th 11 night Eastern Caribbean, then October 29th 10 night Bahamas. These 3 sailings will give us 12 sailings on the Mercury, I guess that makes us Elite C C members just on the Mercury. She's our west coast ship so we sail her a lot, and we don't have to fly very far, that one of the reasons we are doing the Panama Canal cruise again we will only have to fly one way. If any of these October cruises look good to you we'd love to cruise with you again Take care, Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ships R Great Posted February 17, 2010 #34 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Ships, I thought you were booked on the March Mercury? Are you on February too??? Nope, we are and have always been booked on 2/26. Wish we could B2B so we could see you again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuggers Posted February 17, 2010 #35 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I agree. Would love to see you two again. We had such lovely talks over our Martinis! AJD, Fusion is the old Exodus band from Horizon days. They had to change their name because in the country they come from (St Lucia, I think), the band name is owned by the management company. When they changed companies they had to get a new name. I still remember the lead vocalist singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow out by the pool. Bear, funny you should mention the repo. I just emailed my friends Cil and Rog to see if we wanted to book it again! I'll tell them you're going to be on again!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
