The rib eye is also heavily coated in a rub. I asked to have it medium rare without the rub. It came heavily crusted and well done. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Just got back from our first Viking cruise. Many niceties but a lot that we miss from Celebrity. My ideal cruise would combine several. We love the size of Windstar, the food and entertainment of Celebrity and the elegance of the Viking ship.

Hmmmm. We didn’t see a lot of information when we got off the ship. Certainly could have missed it. There was one taxi waiting and we took it to the Titanic Museum. We also had no problem getting an Uber in all the cities we visited.

We toured the Titanic museum in the morning and took a Troubles Tour in the afternoon. Highly recommend both. We learned so much about the history of Belfast and Northern Ireland.

Also bag tags with your cabin number 🤷🏼‍♀️

On the Viking Neptune now. Washers and dryers are separate.

There are four per floor. The detergent is automatically added.

Yes. This is true which is why we set up one phone with the $100 month long plan and will keep the other on airplane mode at all times.

All cabins?

I called my TA. Our gift from her will come in the form of a check when we return.

If you don’t sign up for the $100 plan and use the $10/day plan and use it more than ten days, you will be charged for however many days you use it. We are traveling for close to 20 days. Both my husband and I are on Verizon. I set up just one phone to be usable without Wi-Fi. Our total out of pocket will be $100 as long as we keep hubby’s phone on airplane mode. He will have access onboard with Wi-Fi. My phone has unlimited texts and data and 250 minutes of international calling.

Thanks for asking this question. I’ve been wondering as well.

Thank you.

Is it like the SSBP where both need to upgrade the wine at Chef’s Table?

When I log on I see that I have no availability because I already have a reservation. Do I need to cancel to see if there are dates/times that I might prefer? 🤔

Thanks!

I thought we didn’t need to book the regular dining room. Just the two specialty restaurants. Did I mess that up?

Can you turn on and off the iCloud function so that you are only backing up when using the ship's Wifi?

My thought is that since we have Wi-Fi on board the ship it will mostly be used to request a ride or send/respond to a text. I need to learn how to download Google maps for the cities that we will walk and might want directions.

Can't find the thread but is this correct? Pound Sterling in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. The Euro in Ireland.

Interesting. Thanks for that info. Perhaps I'll give them a call.

I didn’t see an option when I booked our excursions. I’m wondering if there’s a difference between different OBCs. For example the one given by TA vs from Viking?

It looks like with Verizon I can buy unlimited data and texting with 250 minutes of talk for $100. Can it really be that simple?
