Island Sun Posted October 9, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Yes, I have completed mine - more UK departures please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BristolGolfer Posted October 10, 2014 #4 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Yes, I have completed mine - more UK departures please! Hi Island Sun We're from Bristol as well, near Henbury Golf Club...hence BristolGolfer!! Good to know that there are other SB lovers in the area. My wife Helen's just completed the survey and like other would like to see more South American trip perhaps taking in Galapagos & Matchu Pitchu...obviously as side trips unless the tide was very high in Peru for MP!!

Island Sun Posted October 10, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Hello Bristol Golfer! Yes, we're SB lovers from Bristol (and I am a golf widow - my husband plays at the Player's Club!). I really don't mind where I go with SB - I am just really happy to be on board any of their ships after several cruises on other lines, although a World Cruise with them would be my idea of heaven! One can dream! Regards Lyn & John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tv24 Posted October 10, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I tried to complete the survey twice, but there were technical problems. I have contacted the tech services staff at link provided, but so far they have not been helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4yanx Posted October 10, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Did everyone else's survey say that we were among an exclusive group to receive the survey and please do not forward it to others? I felt special, briefly. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenidallas Posted October 10, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I also got a survey but mine did not ask any questions about potential future destinations. Mine was more oriented to market position compared to other lines and possible marketing campaigns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be a first time Seabourn cruiser...perhaps we get targeted surveys with different emphasis, which could also be why they suggest not forwarding.

tv24 Posted October 10, 2014 #10 Share Posted October 10, 2014 4yanx: You are special. Happily I was able to go back to the survey and complete it, at least Part I, which had only marketing questions like the one Jennidallas completed. Maybe the destination quex will come in Part II?

4yanx Posted October 10, 2014 #11 Share Posted October 10, 2014 We'd all like to think so, TV! ;) My survey was almost strictly "where would you like to go?" and "what ports are your preference to embark/disembark?" and "how interested are you in cruises of longer than 14 days?".

SKP946 Posted October 11, 2014 Author #14 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I also got this survey.....nothing about destinations. I wonder if those that received the survey went to the following pages after they clicked "submit" ? From memory there were four pages !:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare frantic36 Posted October 11, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I wonder if those that received the survey went to the following pages after they clicked "submit" ? From memory there were four pages !:) I suspect different surveys were sent out. :) My husband and I both had destination only questions of four pages long. When we reached our final submit we had a thank you for your time page pop up. Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenidallas Posted October 11, 2014 #16 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Mine was an initial survey (demographics and it asked me about my past recent vacations (up to ten). After I submitted, I had follow up questions (several pages). When I finished that I was told I'd receive a follow up survey soon . It arrived the next day and was multiple (10-15 pages) of marketing/branding related questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

germanshep Posted October 13, 2014 #18 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I gave them high scores, Seabourn is just the tops! I love their service. It's amazing how they are able to know my name when I step on the ship and I'm not even famous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jassy Posted November 7, 2014 #20 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I feel left out. :( Me, too. :(:( Perhaps because I haven't signed up for any SB cruises in a while? :p But you would think I'd be a demographic they would be interested in hearing from - three past cruises and then silence for two+ years. I'd love to be able to comment on desirable future cruise destinations - part of the reason we haven't cruised with SB lately is that their itineraries are not exciting us. Ah, well.

lincslady Posted November 8, 2014 #21 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I assume this 'survey' is not connected to the online questionnaire you get after a cruise? As long time SB people, we have never had one if so. However, I wonder if anyone else feels that the final question on the after-cruise survey is a bit 'off' in asking your income? Perhaps I am just being a stuffy Brit! Obviously one does not have to answer, but there is no space for saying 'mind your own business', otherwise I would have ticked that. Interested to hear other views on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigella Posted November 8, 2014 #22 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I assume this 'survey' is not connected to the online questionnaire you get after a cruise? No, it was a completely different set of questions. Mostly trying to ascertain future cruise plans and what we'd like to see on offer with regard to new itineraries. It was asking about preferred cruise length, days at sea vs port days, embarkation ports and areas of the world that are of interest. It did seem to be tailored to one's location and mine was asking about Southampton, London and Dover as possible embarkation ports. Seabourn have our UK address on my own profile, while my husband uses our address in France on his. When he received the questionnaire his was slightly different to mine.

Emperor Norton Posted November 8, 2014 #24 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I guess living in San Francisco would exclude me as Seabourn hasn't stopped here in years. Sent via squirrels and a rotary phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps that is why I'm not hearing from them, either (and now I understand your choice of handle, Emperor! :) ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
