Rare HaveDogWillTravel Posted July 25, 2019 #51 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) Thanks. I’m assuming you’re both referring to recent SF sailings to Alaska on the Grand. I live in the Bay Area and have easy access to affordable designer clothes thanks to Last Call and a few designer consignment stores. That’s why I was thinking if you had mostly locals on these sailings there might be a bit more dressing up. Locals might pack more since we don’t need to fly. Then I’ll just wear my cocktail dresses. When I sail with DH we are the freaks in tuxedo and gown but we only have eyes for each other so what others wear doesn’t matter. I’m sailing solo this time and don’t want to be the odd duck out.

cruzrbachoua Posted July 25, 2019 #52 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Thanks for your offer. I am curious about the actual gym hours and would love to see the patters and the MDR menus. Bon voyage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani24 Posted July 25, 2019 Author #53 Share Posted July 25, 2019 We're on board! We were one of the very first onboard. Definitely in the top 10. 🙂 We're enjoying lunch in Club Class right now. Giovanni is here! I let him know he has a "fan club" online. He was very impressed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If yes, can you ask him if he will be onboard Christmas Week 2019? Dede Teddy Trisnady is our steward for the Window Suites. He seems absolutely wonderful so far! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey there ... me again. I have had the hardest time getting an answer about the one BOTTLE packages so if you will be so kind to let me know, I’d be very appreciative. I am hoping the lack of responses to my question means they no longer have the packages I want. Thanks J ... One more thing ... are their outlets by the bed (either side) in the window suites? PS ... enjoy your cruise! Edited July 27, 2019 by Cruise Raider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short answer is YES 😀there’s 7 bottle, 10 bottle and 12 bottle packages available at $31, $29 and $28 per bottle respectively. Good for bottles up to $45. I experienced the new wine list on my May trip on the Island and thought it had a very nice selection of whites and reds at $45 or less. I’ll just need to bring champagne. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS ... enjoy your cruise! I cannot find any plugs near either side of the bed in our Window Suite. Except that both bedside lamps (and the one next to the sofa) have a USB outlet in the base. There is only the Gold bottle package available on board at this time. 7 bottles for $217; 10 bottles for $290; 12 bottles for $336. Good for bottles up to $45. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see she also answered my question below ... i am so glad to hear the packages are still available. We loved it when we had it on the Royal back in April but then heard they were cutting it on some of the Princess ships. Glad the Grand is not one of them. The new wine list is awesome! I swear that if I had to drink one more glass of Clos Du Bois ... well you know .... hahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
