Just to make it clear, the wines by the glass on the regular and upgraded drinks packages on O include ALL the wines by the glass available onboard. In other words, regardless of whether guests choose a drinks package or pay for drinks as they go, all will be choosing from the same list of wines by the glass. Although the selection may vary from cruise to cruise, you can get an idea of the wines by the glass here: https://www.oceaniacruises.com/Documents/Menus/1694/Bar-Menu.pdf. I much preferred the way O do it to Viking, where we had the upgraded package but found it difficult and slow at lunch and dinner to order wine that wasn't the included wine of the day.

There is no door on the indoor smoking area on Riviera. The smell reaches the bar area and assails your nostrils as soon as you get out of the elevator on that floor. I am shocked that indoor smoking is allowed at all on a modern cruise line. I hope that O gets rid of that venue in the near future, or at the very least puts a door on the room in the upcoming Riviera refurb. I will be on the first cruise after the refurb so will be interested to see.

Just wondering if your towels and sheets were changed during the once daily cleaning?

We recently completed 17 days on Riviera comprised of a 10 night followed by a 7 night sailing. We had 1 booking number and the cruise ID had an A at the end of it. I would be grateful if experienced O cruisers could tell me how many loyalty cruise credits we should receive. Although we only had one booking number, Oceania treated each leg separately in a number of ways. For example, we were only able to make 4 specialty restaurant reservations for the first 10 days and 4 in the second leg, rather than 8 across the 17 days. We also had to upgrade our beverage package at the start of each leg. Based on that I was hoping for 2 credits.
