  1. Thank you, the attachment opened. We are yet to sail on Silversea but do enjoy outdoor dining when weather permits. We have recently sailed on Explora1 which was amazing. The Arts cafe is probably a shame as we enjoy a good barista coffee. Like you keen to hear what other areas are having a facelift.
  2. Thank you. When I download the attachment I can only see the plans from May 2021, am I missing something?
  3. To be honest it was our Onward cruise in November we felt was lacking We were on Quest last March and all was well. We sail again in July on Onward so hope for a better experience
  4. So very true and our experience mirrors that exactly
  5. I noticed Silver Whisper I’d due in dry dock today for approximately 12 days or less. Does anyone know what areas if any apart from mandatory mechanical , are being undertaken? We haven’t sailed on this vessel but recent reports are not encouraging about the wear and tear factor. We shall be joining the ship in Singapore in February for our very first Silversea so would be good to get inside information from seasoned cruisers Many thanks
  6. Our experience exactly! We were lucky enough to have Ryszard on our Japan intensive last year where he went way above any expectations and quickly sorted any issues. Highly visible and approachable. Compare that to our transatlantic in November on Onward . Never saw the Hotel Director , cruise was well below par to previous cruises. What a huge difference someone like him at the forefront makes. Have one more Azamara booked in July which is also on Onward so fingers crossed we shall have a better experience
  7. Ready to board today following a frustrating travel day from the U.K. with cancelled flights and long waits in airports. It will be good to relax and meet everyone
  8. We leave on Sunday and have a nine hour flight. Hopefully I may have cracked the code by the time we land😂

    Viking Star

    Would love to see a photo of the bottle they are currently offering that’s included in the SSBP Anyone who can help? Thanks
  10. Thinking about packing requirements for our upcoming cruise. Do Viking have a complimentary tote style bag in the cabin? We have lots of sae days and such an item is handy to carry books, creams and caps etc. If not I will include a couple in our case. Thank you
  11. Straight to the nightclub for me then😉❤️
  12. That’s ok but will try and buy some Fevertree to take onboard. Thank you
  13. I am hoping I can get Fevertree tonic onboard. Will be on Sitar Mid March for the Transatlantic. Anyone know if it’s available on the ship currently please?

    Viking Star

    We are also on the March 18th transatlantic crossing. We have the SSBP so hope there is a champagne by the glass within the package , would love to know if that’s the case. Thank you
  15. We shall also join you on that sailing Looks like a full ship! Have been asking on another thread if House champagne is now included in SSBP Will be our third Viking Ocean Just returned from Explora1 which was fabulous See you soon
  16. Anyone onboard now or recently know if the above is still the case, if you have the SSBP and if so what brand is the house champagne? Many thanks
  17. The stairs were marble and curved near one of the restaurants, in the Atrium.
  18. We are onboard and also on the previous one and were told a total of 620 and an additional 26 b2b including us!
  19. Yes it is. Just started the debark now for guests leaving. We all have to clear immigration and nobody can board again before 11.30 so we shall explore the city
  20. I am currently on the ship and two nights ago fell down these steps. Inured my left side and head and few other bumps and bruises. Just beginning to feel a bit better and not wince when turning over. I was somewhat lucky because it could have ended much worse. I received instant excellent care from the medical team. Will definitely avoid this route for the rest of the cruise!
  21. Thank you. We embark on the 19th and remain onboard for three weeks . Hopefully we shall have learned when and where to go onboard before the very busy period. It does sound like the ship is responsive to and acting on passengers feedback which is very positive. Enjoy your NFL games, although new are from the U.K. our eldest son is a fan and watches many games on TV here.
  22. Thank you that’s very kind. Great that the Wifi is “ up to speed “ as it’s often an issue on other ships. Enjoy the rest of your cruise
  23. We board in Barbados on 19th January, do you think this will be the possible passenger count for that leg? Good to hear your experience so far , it sounds wonderful and we can’t wait to find out for ourselves.
  24. Great start! Hope it continues for you and you have an unforgettable experience. Is the ship now sailing at capacity? We sail on January 19th and would love to know the potential passenger count for our cruise. Thank you for your encouraging post
