Thanks for this information! We’ll be in Stavenger in June on the Homelands cruise and I will definitely look into this!

Thanks for this information. We signed up for this excursion yesterday for our June Homelands cruise and are looking forward to exploring Berlin. I’ll be sure to take a book for the train ride!

Hmmm, our flights for our cruise in three weeks were booked with Delta. I suppose they’re still a “go”, can’t imagine Regent would cancel or reschedule them. I would be furious if they did!

I always bring a small hand-quilting project with me on cruises. I sit in the lounge with a latte or martini and stitch happily away. It’s a great conversation starter!

Regent got enough people yesterday to move to another cruise, so looks like we’ll be staying on our original cruise. However, they did tell my TA that there’s still a long waiting list for our cruise so they might make additional offers later.

I got the same email and am interested in the two Grandeur cruises later in March. My TA contacted Regent, we’ll see if his works out.

I’ll be right behind you at the bar!

We will be in a Superior Suite. When you say that internet for one device is included, does this mean one device per passenger or one device per cabin? Particularly, I’m wondering if I need to purchase a wifi package so that both my husband and I can use our iPads onboard. Thanks!

While I agree with a lot of what you say (except I am a VERY experienced cruiser, though not with Regent), our flight is a very short one, from RDU, so I’m not concerned about “missing the boat”. Flying across the pond is a whole different situation!

We’re doing our first Regent cruise next month, the Western Caribbean cruise out of Miami on February 27. Our flight arrives in Miami around 8:30; by the time we retrieve our luggage and are transported to the ship it’ll probably be closer to 10 am. Will we be permitted to board the ship and wait patiently somewhere until our rooms are ready? Also, our flight home doesn’t leave until 6:30 pm. I know that some cruise lines reserve a suite or room at a hotel near the airport for folks like us with late flights. Does Regent do this? Or do I need to do some research on options at Miami airport? I don’t know if this makes any difference, but our flights were booked through Regent. Thanks in advance for any information! Allyn

I always take a project with me on cruises and, like you, have found it to be a great conversation starter. Most of my projects are small hand quilting projects (and I’ll bring one with me on our Grandeur cruise next month), but I look forward to doing some needlepoint. I used to do a lot of needlepoint before I got addicted to quilting and I miss it. So if you see a woman in the lounge, drinking a latte or a martini and doing hand quilting, yup, it’s probably me!

Omg, I love it! You have no idea how happy it makes me to see this . . . I’ll be happily stitching away on these while sipping martinis next month!

This is awfully cute! I wish they had some items with Regent’s name on them, like this one I did many years ago from another cruise line. Regardless, I’ll definitely pick one of these up on our cruise next month.

A Cosmopolitan is the first cocktail I enjoy after embarkation. It gives me a chance to assess the quality of the bar/bartender. Yum!

Oh hurray!! Thanks so much for your response! Our first day is a sea day, so you can be sure I’ll be checking this out as soon as I get on the ship. Love working on those little kits.
