ducklite Posted July 8, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2011 We're on her for two weeks next year and I'm wondering what you liked the best and what you thought could use improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow cat Posted July 10, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Ducklite, we've been on Windsurf 2x (and Windspirit) and I wouldn't change a thing on either one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducklite Posted July 10, 2011 Author #3 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Thanks for the response Snow cat. Maybe you could tell me your favorite "hidden" things to do or see on board. Is there a hidden cozy spot on the ship that you found? What would your "don't miss while on board" things be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6rugrats Posted July 10, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I've only been on the Windsurf once; it's our least favorite ship in the line. There really aren't any "hidden" spots that I can think of, the least crowded was the cigar bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow cat Posted July 10, 2011 #5 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I agree. Finding hidden spots would be difficult since most passengers are returning guests! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mands&Ian Posted July 11, 2011 #6 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I wouldn't change a thing on either one. I love Windstar, I love Wind Surf. We've spent several months onboard; we planned our wedding around cruises. There's only one thing that I really dislike and it is made worse by the fact that they acknowledge it is a problem and that it's been an issue for some years and still it hasn't been resolved. I make our bookings. I deal with our travel agent. I select our cabin. I pay the deposit on a credit card in my name. I pay the balance on a credit card in my name. I pay for any pre-trip arrangements such as drinks packages. I use a credit card in my name to sign up for any onboard expenditure for either of us. I sign up for future cruises on board and pay for them in a credit card in my name. I settle our bill with a credit card in my name. The final bill? That appears in my husband's name alone. I, apparently, don't exist. Apparently it is easier to create the bill in one name, the male name, than reference the person who has made the majority of the payments. I was annoyed when it first happened to us, back in '07. Last year I declined to settle the account until it had been re-issued in my name or in joint names. The bill was, grudgingly, re-issued the following day. It is such a minor thing to fix, use both names, and yet they don't. Mands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducklite Posted July 11, 2011 Author #7 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Hmmm... If it's in my husbands name, does that mean he needs to pay for it rather than me doing so? Might not be so bad. :D In all seriousness I do know where you are coming from. I went to buy a new car a few years back, and the finance guy kept directing questions to my husband, even though I was buying the car in my name with my income and my credit. My husband was only there with me as we had dinner plans on that side of town that evening and I didn't want to make a separate trip. I got up and walked out, and told the sales manager he lost the deal because of the finance guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanibel Posted July 23, 2011 #8 Share Posted July 23, 2011 You'll get a chuckle out of this. Recently we checked our credit scores which we do about once a year. My score was 10 points higher than my husband's and we do everything jointly. We both got a good laugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
