Bob Binder...where are the monthly Vista updates you promised?

Bob,

 

When you first introduced us to the new Vista, you said you would be giving us an update/sneak peek at more details of the ship each month, to keep our excitement at a fevered pitch (as if that was needed).  I was hoping to see more info about cabins and suites, as well as dining venues other than Compass Rose.  And I thought you'd show us any new dining options, as well as the Vista Lounge theater.

I'm already fired up to book a cruise (or 2) in September, but I really want to see more of the ship.  June has come and gone with no news.  Please don't skip July's update (nor August's, for that matter).

 

Oh, and by the way Bob, I really wish you had kept Allura as the name, and not chosen Vista.  Is it too late to go back to correct what has to have been a clerical error and make the right choice?😁

 

Bob, don't leave us hanging!!!

Do you have your main DR's on cruise lines confused? Regent uses Compass Rose- not O.

Did you receive the Oceania Club Olife circular? Not sure if there's anything new about Vista there. Not sure I knew that the Concierge rooms are going to be larger than regular Verandas(at least some of them) and that there are also going to dedicated rooms for Solos in this category.

Yup, We don't like the name either.    Also it would be nice to see some up dates about the new ship.

Can't wait to see the new ship and book a cruise.  Might even be the same one as you, and you and Susan can play cards and I can just roam the ship which I love to do.   Also would play paddle ball if they put the court in the right place.

Am I the only one here that received the Oceania Club circular?

Not in my mailbox yet but will look forward to seeing it soon.  I had heard about the larger Concierge level Veranda staterooms differentiating them from B Verandas.  I am sure we will hear and see more soon.

While the name Vista may not have been as cool sounding, I am sure she will be AMAZING. Bonnie and I and our travel buddies are really looking forward to sailing on her in 2023. 
Somehow I think Bob and his executive staff are a bit busy getting Oceania ready to sail; Marina in August, Riviera in October, Insignia for the AWT, Regatta in February,  Nautica in April and of course Sirena. OK, then add Vista in late 2022.

 

We will stay positive and looking forward to sailing on Oceania very soon.  
Bonnie and Gerry
