Silversea Shadow Charter 15 Feb-22Feb 2021

Charter by Playbill travel, Broadway in the Caribbean.  We'd be interested in any experiences with the charter experience on Silversea.  This trip based on success of previous Broadway on the High Seas 6 in 2016 and Broadway on the High Seas 8 in 2017.  Thanks

We took a 10 day charter on the CLoud.  The National WWII museum chartered the whole ship for the 70th anniversary of D-Day.  It was a very different experience.  There were none of the usual daily events or entertainment.  Our days were filled with lectures and shore excursions.  There was music in the evening, but although the Voices of Silversea were on board, they did not perform in the evening.  We were able to convince them to do a small cabaret one evening in Panorama.  We had to make a special request for our “free laundry” perk to be available to us and also had to request that we get our days credited.  Food and service were the same as usual.  Some evenings we could not sit at a table for 2 in the dining room since the organizers had arranged for large tables.  
 

I assume that the pace on board a Caribbean charter would be much more laid back than was ours in Normandy.  Also, our per diem was significantly higher than a normal cruise.  Will the ship be fully chartered or only part of it?  That makes a difference if some passengers are not in the charter group.

 

hope that is helpful.
