Not terribly convenient… I've found that sending a message via the app when something isn't quite right works wonders. One afternoon, the dock outside quickly became very crowded, and there was only one waitress, and she was really "in the weeds". I sent a message saying that we've been sitting there for 20 minutes and she needs help. Within minutes a few more servers showed up, and then even more. Sailor Services referred to them as their "quick response team" or something like that. We were dining in the Wake one night, and I asked our waitress if we should order a bottle of champagne from her, or if we should shake, and she said, "shake". We tried shaking 3 times, and each time it said there was an error because they couldn't figure out our location, so the waitress said she would take care of it. 10 minutes later, someone showed up with our champagne. Don't be afraid to ask for help, that's what they're there for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cloud9 Bob Posted November 2, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 2, 2022 Sailor services was clueless to IT issues. If it weren't that the IT manager happened to be walking through the space, I'd still be wondering why VPN's dont wotk onboard. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
