harryw Posted August 30, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 30, 2023 This will be our first cruise post pandemic and would like to anticipate how O has made changes to assuage any health concerns. Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Pandazoo Posted August 30, 2023 #2 Share Posted August 30, 2023 There is no self serve. There are barriers in front of the food stations. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harryw Posted August 30, 2023 Author #5 Share Posted August 30, 2023 I can’t remember if any item was self serve. Possibly some rolls and communal bottles of condiments. It’s a hazy memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Pandazoo Posted August 31, 2023 #7 Share Posted August 31, 2023 That’s interesting didn’t realize Oceania has been around forever. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Harters Posted August 31, 2023 #8 Share Posted August 31, 2023 We took our second Oceania cruise earlier this year. The previous one was 2017. Didnt feel as there was any difference in the Terrace Cafe offerings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ToxM Posted August 31, 2023 #9 Share Posted August 31, 2023 O buffets and the lack of self service has always been very nice (and sensible), I really haven’t noticed any changes, apart from the sticky bins, and that is a loss I can take if everything else is the same 🙂 I was very sad about the sticky buns, but I live in hope they will rise phoenix like from the ashes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted August 31, 2023 #10 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Back pre 2007 or 2008 you could serve yourself some items like rolls/drinks/deserts (except ice cream) Then Noro was prevalent & things changed for the better IMO still there are those that stick their paws into the food area to try to serve themselves Now if they would only put the glass barrier all the way to the counter 🙄 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatbush Flyer Posted August 31, 2023 #11 Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) Rest in Peace. (Today’s quiz: the picture is the “real” one. What’s different about the look-a-like one you recently had onboard?) Edited August 31, 2023 by Flatbush Flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Woodrowst Posted September 1, 2023 #12 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I agree with previous comments. We took our first post-Covid Oceania cruise a few months ago and everything was as good as ever including the buffet. The only change I noticed was that they had shrimp cocktail available almost every day. That was good for me as I really like it.🙂 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
