    2026 Cruises?

    Hello! For those of you who have cruised recently, has there been any on board discussion, or information provided, in regard cruising in 2026? I did notice Regent and Seaborn have some cruises already available and I'm hoping Crystal is close to releasing an update. Thank you for any intel you may be able to provide, -Rob-
  2. Good Day! First, thanks so much for taking the time and effort to share with us your experiences and opinions of the NC. We're scheduled to be on the holiday B2B cruise next year and can't wait. The above quote caught my eye. Was this statement in reference to a stop in St. Johns, Antiqua? If so, much has changed since the 2xs we strolled around the port, up the hill to St John's Cathedral and other areas. I apologize if I'm confusing your reference. Thank you again, -Rob-
  3. For those that have clicked on Request A Quote from the website, how long has it taken to receive a response? Thank you!
  4. As you can tell I post very infrequently, but I do follow all of those that do with great interest, respect, and regard for the effort and willingness to share fact, opinions, and WAGs. When I think I can add something of value beyond all of the opinions and expertise then well, I take a chance to contribute. In relation to this thread, I am one that eagerly anticipates the “New” Crystal offerings and am hopeful that the on-board experience comes (at least) close to or exceeds our previous cruises with them. And as most have described the onboard experience, and lasting impression of Crystal, was mostly due to the crew. In regard to the amount of the “original” crew returning and the motivation to do so I’d like to add the following from my experience as a Supervisor, Manager, and a leader in Organizational Change for large organizations and small teams. When employees were asked, via survey and annual performance reviews, what they valued the most in regard to a) annual and ongoing rewards b) retention and c) satisfaction with work, meaning wanting to continue to work for their present employer, in all cases intrinsic rewards such as recognition, cooperation, control, and challenges outscored other choices such more income. I have an opinion that the "Old" Crystal took these facts to heart. I’m hoping the “New” Crystal motivates (our) most valued crew into returning and that when we board the Serenity and Symphony, we are greeted with familiar and new smiling faces once again. Having said all of this I completely understand those that have chosen not to wait and wish, have moved on, and are being met with smiling faces and a great experience. There's no right or wrong, winners, or loser here is there? It's all good. Sail On! -Rob-
