reunion cruises

[Geebles]

Has anyone been on an Oceania reunion cruise? We are wondering what the "special events and surprises" might consist of?

We've been on two of them. The only special event I remember is a fabulous, and I mean fabulous dinner on shore with Nick DeSantis, head of Oceania's membership. Additonally, everyone who attends usually gets a gift at the end of the trip to commemorate the cruise.

 

However, I do remember these cruises as being exceptionally full of fun, which is why we're atending the one in 2012 even though it's only 10 days. :cool:

How do they work that with close to 700 passengers?

Or is it just for the VIP's?

Even on a Reunion cruise, everyone wont be a repeat passenger.

 

Naturally, some of the activities are based on the tier of the repeater club that you are in.

True but I would think the majority would be

 

We have been on cruises where the repeat cruisers are more than half of the total passengers (450 out of 684)

 

Our Marina cruise had 800 repeat cruisers

free shuttles in every port, gift at end of cruise, dinner(s) with officers, cocktail parties (so free booze), and pretty cool entertainment in ports as we arrived/departed.

Thanks in advance

Last years reunion cruise was really great. All of the above comments were right on. This year only 10 days, so not long enough for us. As in a previous thread we think the shorter O cruises are going away from what O has been for the last 7 or 8 years and we will think hard what we will do in the future. O has been the best cruise line for during this time, but I guess everything has to come to an end sooner or later. TOO bad. :mad:

I think they are "testing the waters" so to speak

They have 2 x 7 day cruises so far so will see how that idea goes

It may work out for them but most O cruisers prefer longer the itineraries

 

Time will tell
