Re wine tastings: We did a few of the pay-extra wine tastings on the May transatlantic. They were around $20 per person I think. Held in Palomar restaurant deck 17. Need to keep an eye on Freestyle Daily for upcoming wine tastings. Most were sold out but you could often get in by getting on a wait list or hanging around at the start of the session as some people would drop out when they realized it was a paid extra.
Tastings were themed e.g. wine and cheese pairings, wine and chocolate, old world vs new world wines.
We enjoyed the tastings and thought they were informative and interesting. Also different wines to what I normally drink at home (Australia).
