Do people wash their hands more because it is self serve ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also generally don't eat any items that other people can touch in the Terrace. My exceptions are the sauces(ketchup, hot sauce etc. ) but I try to use my napkin for those. I may be a bit excessive, but I prefer not to have my vacation ruined with others germs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flies were visiting the open food bins at Waves when we were in port in Cuba. The staff try to cover the bins with plastic food plate covers. It was a good resason to avoid what’s in the bins during port days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babysteps Posted December 27, 2018 #513 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Currently on Insignia in 4041 (deluxe ocean view). In this cabin only the cabin walls around the bath are slightly magnetic. The cabin door and bath door are highly magnetic. The other cabin walls are not magnetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babysteps Posted December 28, 2018 #519 Share Posted December 28, 2018 (edited) No attached or built in player of any kind on the tv in 4041 (deluxe ocean view). But one open USB port and three open hdmi ports on the upper right side of our tv. There are a *lot* of movies on demand. Also some television episodes and Netflix too (Will and Grace, House of Cards, etc). There are also still the movie channels. To the upthread comment on mirror over desk being metallic - it is metallic, but it is not magnetic. Edited December 28, 2018 by babysteps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked and dont see any connections, HDMI or even USB anywhere on the sides, bottom or top of the TV in a PH1 suite. It looks like there are some connections in the middle but the TV is mounted firmly to the wall so I dont know how you would connect anything. For what it's worth, the new TV and TV menus and quality are a huge improvement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wr2next Posted December 28, 2018 #524 Share Posted December 28, 2018 We are on the Insigina now. Not sure if any one has discussed it, but the internet on the Insignia is a HUGE improvement. (if its been discussed I apologize I missed it). We were on the Nautica a few months ago and I was pretty critical of the internet. Basically the wireless and the connect was worthless on that cruise. This however is great after the upgrades to Insignia. Whoever at Oceania was in charge of the Internet and the technology upgrades needs a raise!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The improvements to the TV & programming on Oceania when compared to other lines were greatly overdue.
