rblevow Posted May 30, 2013 #1 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I mined the postings as best I could and came up with a list of cruisers posting to CC who are booked on the Viking Star. The list is contained in the attached pdf file. I'll try to update the list periodically until it either gets too large to be manageable or we get separate roll calls for each of the cruises. Please respond to this thread with any additions or corrections. -- roy -- VS Roll Call.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjscott Posted May 31, 2013 #9 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Great idea, Roy! I am Becki and my husband is Garrett and we are on the 4/11/15 Empires of the Mediterranean. Also joining us are our friends, Janet and Neil, but they do not participate on CC. We met Janet and Neil on a Viking 'Tulips & Windmills' cruise in April '13, and we will be cruising with them on a Passage to Eastern Europe in June '14 on the Viking Rinda as well.

Lee and Mary Jane just signed up for May 2, 2015....."Passage thru Western Europe"...good thing we didn't wait much longer..v1 has just one cabin left and v2 is sold out. Andy...any chance of adding a 'roll call', option on the forum for Viking Ocean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear_Music Posted June 8, 2013 #20 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I just find myself wondering what decks people gravitate to. I've gone as high as possible on the boat, but then I'm physically immune to seasickness/vertigo/dizziness so I don't worry about motion. Since I'm a photographer, I like being only steps away from the weather deck. We chose the starboard side because that will be the shoreward side of the ship for most of the cruise... Or so I assume, anyway :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
id4elizabeth Posted June 9, 2013 #21 Share Posted June 9, 2013 We just booked the Viking Empire, Istanbul to Stockholm. We're on deck 8 for most of the cruise, but unfortunately we have to shift staterooms twice, and the last leg we are on deck 5. Can't believe all the staterooms on deck 8 are already booked for the Baltic leg, but we will keep checking back with Viking in case a stateroom on deck 8 opens up. We also have to change rooms in Venice, but at least we're on the same floor (8) and only have to shift down two rooms. Our names are Joe and Elizabeth. Really looking forward to the cruise - we should certainly all know one another pretty well since this is so far away. Never booked a cruise this far in advance before!

Rare WesW Posted June 13, 2013 #23 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Heard today from Viking Cruises, they are moving towards adopting an official Cruise Critic meet & Mingle program--will be a win-win for both Viking River cruises and Viking Oceans along with Cruise critic--all winners. Giving CC more visibility/views and leading to wonderful camaraderie on board Viking as well as leading to many, many more repeat bookings. Also, as in the deposit refund snafu thread below Viking Cruises told me, they will maintain a recurring presence on this forum, similar to the presence they maintain on the River cruise forum.

rblevow Posted June 14, 2013 Author #25 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Heard today from Viking Cruises, they are moving towards adopting an official Cruise Critic meet & Mingle program That's great news.:) The increased opportunity to get to know fellow cruisers should be particularly beneficial when we are all new to the ship and the line.
