steve3008 Posted August 12, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Hello, Does anyone have info on Open Seas gay charter? Looking at Zenith (ex celebrity century?) September 29th. Comparisons maybe to the other charter companies? What would the demographics probably be like? One thing I liked is a 5 drink a day package with some water and non alcoholic drinks for about 37$ a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awaflyboy Posted September 4, 2018 #2 Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) I just booked it via an Interline company and created a Roll Call in the Roll Call Forums. Not really sure what to expect, it sounds like it'll be a very club / white party kind of scene - not really my style; but it checks off a lot off my trips & cruise to do list. Mediterranean, Barcelona, Ibiza, Gay Cruise; plus the interline rate that I got was just way to good not to pass up - got outside cabin for $179 + $149 tax/gratuities!

CruisinMaterial Posted September 4, 2018 #3 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I received an email about this and was like... wooha... this looks mighty interesting but I'm on a cruise at the same time here! Vengaboys definitely brings back some college memories!! :) Enjoy and please be sure to come back here and post a review. It'd be nice to have some competition out there with the market dominant brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve3008 Posted September 4, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Hi awaflyboy Thanks for the info. I agree it’s not the type of cruise I would usually take but at this price it was worth rolling the dice. I too am looking forward to Corsica Ibiza. So now the planning begins. I will try to write a review when I get back. Maybe we should take this conversation to the roll call ? Have you gotten any documentation yet? I am curious if we can book beverage packages in advance. Take care, Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awaflyboy Posted September 9, 2018 #5 Share Posted September 9, 2018 I've gotten documents from the booking company but not from OpenSeas or the Cruise Line itself yet. I'll be following up about that on Monday. I already have a stateroom assignment though! I saw that there's a G&L Roll Call Sub Forum, if we don't have a roll call in there already, I'll create one and we can move the convo there and see if there are any other CC'ers going. It would be fun to do a meet n mingle - I have always loved doing those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
