Some Questions Before Our First Cruise

[kitty9]

We're all packed and our bags are ready to be shipped out on Friday. I do have a few questions before we leave.

 

We are able to board at 11, so will we be able to go to our room at that time or will we be taken to a waiting area? Is the MDR available for lunch?

 

Has anyone used the Connect@Sea app? Is it easy to use? Is there a charge to text to another passenger on the ship?

 

We are so excited to be trying Oceania, especially after reading LeeAnne's posts.

Not sure when suites are ready but you will be in the first group

if not available when you board they will be by noon

you can go to the Terrace to eat the GDR is not open on boarding day for lunch

enjoy the cruise

MDR closed on boarding day . You go to Terrace Cafe but is a cut above your average cruise ship buffet. Excellent range, and newly introduced features on many Oceania vessels .
