Rare Silver Spectre Posted December 2, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Interesting new development. SS have just announced new deals on 13 spring voyages where the usual OBC taster has been replaced by $1000 in complimentary Shore Excursions. Perhaps a fight back against Regent, or maybe SS prefers OBC not to be spent in the boutique. If there are some $s left over can they be donated to the closed thread charity.

Travelcat2 Posted December 2, 2010 #2 Share Posted December 2, 2010 And, maybe they don't want credits used for Le Champagne. On our cruise there was a $500 OBC and Le Champagne was packed. Regent's decision to include excursion has not been well accepted by some passengers. It has also caused quite a mess with hoards of people trying to get onto each tour. Hope this is not the direction Silversea is going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulo Posted December 2, 2010 #3 Share Posted December 2, 2010 The info I received earlier this week from a Silversea rep was that this $1000 could be used for shore excursions and/or on board expenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wripro Posted December 2, 2010 #4 Share Posted December 2, 2010 My guess, and it's just a guess, is that you will be able to use the OBC for any onboard expense but that SS is marketing it as for excursions to compete with Regent. I could be wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
