LHT28

You could book now then if the new program works out better then you can upgrade to it But booking by Jun 30th you will have time to see what plan works best for you JMO

You can ask for larger or smaller portions Ask for something without tomato sauce or less of it if that is the issue I have a sensitivity to tomato sauce in small amounts I am ok but things like lasagna I get a reaction Just a thought

I do Many pax that do not are the ones that are enraged when things change

Catherine posted some info file:///C:/Users/lht28/Downloads/Polo%20And%20Toscana%20Private%20Dining%20Menus-1.pdf https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2942176-polo-and-toscana-private-dining-rooms-on-vista/#comment-65503136

Depends on what you consider Generous The commissions are paid to the Agency the actually travel agent/counsellor does not get the full amount

If you want an upgrade I would let your TA know before hand that you are interested in any offers Once onboard it is probably too late But no never been upgraded after boarding

From the website they have the Dom Perignon & Odyessey listed in Privee on Vista https://www.oceaniacruises.com/ships/vista/culinary-experiences "Privée is our intimate venue for unforgettable wine experiences by La Reserve. Guests can choose from two distinctive and unique multi-course pairing dinners, each a sublime celebration of the finer things in life and limited to eight privileged diners per evening. Savor the truly one-of-a-kind Dom Pérignon Experience that pairs special Champagne vintages with thoughtfully crafted dishes or perhaps enjoy the exquisitely curated Odyssey Menu that is a gustatory journey for the senses. Dramatically backlit, debossed walls and a blooming flower petal ceiling, from which a dramatic chandelier descends over the polished marble slab dining table, only enhance the indulgent occasion. A wall of floor-to-ceiling glass provides an exhilarating view to complement these magnificent dining experiences that can literally traverse continents."

Did you check with Oceania or your TA ? The prices listed on the website do not take into account the new prices for that sale But of course you could have gotten a better deal when you booked ??

I can see them adding the House select beverage package to entice people to book but give the option to pick the excursion deal or not (for a fee) It seems they have trouble getting excursion or getting contractors that can do the description on the brochure They cancel excursion for whatever reason They are shortening port times so why would they force people into booking excursion they cannot guarantee will be available even if they were "FREE" JMO Countdown is on 12 more days to the big reveal 😃

So they do still have a price list for some things then I have not seen the wooden ones for years (never really looked for them ) DH said he remembers them from long ago so maybe they found a stash someplace when doing the refurb 😉

AHH yes the gel top does make a difference DH had an issue on Marine & we thought it was the gel top so they removed it but then the bed was hard as a rock so we had the room steward put it back on We discovered it was the off gassing from the newness of the furnishings that was causing the problem Thank goodness for allergy pills

They used to have a price list in the books in the cabin desk for hairdryers/shoe horns etc.. maybe they no longer do that But then there was a post recently that said the shoehorns were free for the taking🤔

maybe not broken in yet They have barely been sailing a month & you would have been maybe the 1st to use the bed 🤔 https://www.oceaniabedcollection.com/

The only noise we had was the reception staff door some would just let it bang shut (door on starboard) But no matter where your cabin is you have PAX that do the same 🙄

Did you look on their website ? https://www.oceaniacruises.com/cruise-finder#time_frame=2024-7&sort=featured:desc&page=1&pageSize=10 There are several listed for July with the ESS You still need to call O or your TA for pricing though

Paul What line does this cruise? 73 Lyn

it depends ask your TA ours is non refundable

We always take the key /card to the front desk some hotels have a drop box

Pre covid in A cabins they looked the same as you posted

You can get a free cruise on O in 133 days if you take a bunch of shorter cruises 😉

The link goes to the sailings with the 25 % single supplement

I would call them or your TA
