May I add on a question. Does Cunard carry non alcoholic Wines?
-
Many of the lines with premium service --- Oceania, Silver Sea, Regent Silver Seas, Ponant offer complimentary wine and beer with meals. They also offer drink packages for other times.

Just a couple quick observations - Both Celebrity RS and Oceania Vista come with Unlimited Specialty Dining. Oceania offers unlimited Specialty to all room classes not just the upper suites. Celebrity RS comes with Unlimited Laundry and Dry Cleaning. Oceania come with Complimentary Pressing on Embarkation at 2 Bags of Laundry. Will discuss more when we get further into the Comparison - Celebrity - RS 4 High Speed Internet Accounts (2 each) Premium Drink Package (1 each) Gratuities - $46 per day (for 2) 2 Jacuzzi tubs 1 in Bathroom 1 on Veranda Oceania - Vista 2 regular Internet (1 each) Wine and Beer with Meals included Premium Drink Package ($30 pp per day) Gratuities - $37 per day (for 2)

Thanks for alerting me. I will check. The numbers come direct from CruiseDeckPlans. Built in 2000, the Celebrity Cruise Line Celebrity Millennium cruise ship weighs 91K tons and has 1109 staterooms for up to 2662 passengers served by 997 crew. Built in 1998, the Oceania Cruises Regatta cruise ship weighs 30K tons and has 349 staterooms for up to 803 passengers served by 372 crew. I'll have to gone back and check Passenger count from the Celebrity Fleet Guide - Celebrity Millennium Capacity at 2,218 for Double Occupancy, 3-4 Occupancy add on 375 with a Maximum Legal Capacity 2,593 Thus I can see CruiseDeckPlans site is incorrect. Oceania Regatta Capacity of 670 for Double Occupancy, 3-4 Occupancy ?? Maximum Legal Capacity Does anyone have the Maximum Legal Capacity of Oceania Regatta. I'm seeing different numbers on numerous sites? Maybe I should base the comparison on the Minimum of 2x per cabin?? Correction: Millennium is 3.31X passenger if I calculated it correctly. Both numbers on passengers

Like you said... approximately 30 days but have seen it as late as 21 days. The link will be active on the Website when available. Also they usually send you your cruise documents at about 30 days and luggage tags on last page.

Yikes... did you know that when ordering? -
Incredible. Hope you enjoy your cruise otherwise.

Curious if this was right after an event in Retreat... e.g. The Officers Soiree. I have often seen a run on Luminae right after it ends. Early diners hold off until after the reception causing a surge. I've not seen pagers but usually asked to have a drink in Luminae and they would call when a table was available.

We will be departing for our first Oceania Cruise in just a month. To get ready for the cruise I'm doing a comparison of the two cruise lines and suites on the Oceania forum. I'll post a link in my signature also.

For this cruise we chose the Vista Suite. We contemplated the Owner's suite which is a little larger but preferred the Forward Facing Cabin as oppose to the Aft Facing. I have read some of the disadvantages are that the winds can be heavy facing forward and they have to tie down the furniture nightly. I've also read you are required to keep your curtains pulled at night because the room is right under the bridge. Neither of these warning really affect us. We usually don't use our veranda for long time. I did think it would be incredible for the inland passage way and Glacier. I guess we will all find out these warnings affect our use of the cabin. One thing I noticed and will probably be a negative is their is no door between the Bedroom and Living Room. That is one of the main reason I have always enjoyed Celebrity's upper suites.
