Thank you for sharing the news about Ted, @JamieLogical. He was such a nice person and I'm happy I got to meet him.

They give you the equivalent points when matching so you get a jump start on diamond. Definitely worth doing. YC is superb if you go that way.

How did the filet mignon compare there to in the YC, if you tried both?

Any other current Meraviglia info (how long is Arthur there?) would be great. I heard there is a female YC director who just started!

Single elevator starts on 14.

Thanks, all. We are booking adjacent suites for our party. Does anyone have anecdotal experience with the balcony dividers being opened up once onboard or being denied?

Thanks to the three of you (@billc23 and @Lois R too) unfortunately in the time we were considering the most-midship Deck 5 one got swiped by someone else. So might be in 510 but I guess that shouldn't be too too bad. This cruise has about half the time in one direction and half in the other so it is pretty equal. On other ships I have sought ought balconies with a little overhead exposure (sometimes half and half, which is optimal!) rather than another balcony right on top but I don't think there really are any like that on SS or at least this class of ship. I am sure we'll be really happy either way.

We are booking our first Silversea cruise on Silver Moon. Are the deck 5 ones more "sheltered" than the Deck 6 ones? We love a sunny balcony. It's hard to tell when looking at photos of the side of the ship.

I'm keeping a look out online but in need of these to finish my collection after just short of 40 cruises: Carnival Triumph Celebrity Galaxy Empress of the Seas (I sailed on her as EoTS but would take a Nordic Empress too) bcshell@gmail.com in case I don't see here

This will be such a great improvement. So excited. Thank you!

Hopefully someone sailing with Arthur this cruise can let us know how long he’ll be on. We’re on 4/7 and hope he’s still around!

That’s great - I know quite a few folks from the Oct cruises mentioned it on their surveys, including myself, so he must have adjusted his priorities as a result.

For what it is worth, the pool was definitely included in the $40 and the website now makes clear both pools are included with the pass. What did you end up doing during your visit?

We just booked the May 25 Memorial Day Bermuda cruise. I hadn't realized they were bringing Silhouette to NJ right after the one year with Eclipse. I had been disappointed about Summit leaving, since Eclipse has not been updated. I really enjoyed The Porch and the Lawn Club on Silhouette when I was on her in 2022. Very tempted by the repo but for my parents especially not having to fly is such a bonus. Among our family we canceled two cabins on Beyond, one B2B on Ascent and rolled it all into something with no flying via FCCs and a rebooking! Lots of great memories on Bermuda cruises for many years, including on Zenith just a few days before 9/11/01.

Not soon enough! Been looking for them as well.
