Thank you Dave for that reply. It just seems like they should.

So my question is if now they are offering business class air on this cruise is that fare only offered to passengers 1 and 2 in the master suite.

Crusin7 Thank you for the clarification on the Master Suite. Usually what can you expect for the suite charge for the 3 person in the Master Suite if the other 2 are paying around $20,000 per person.

If you book a Master suite and it has 2 bedrooms does everyone that stays in the suite pay the same price or are the other guests offered reduced fares and does everyone in the suite get the same perks

We do not go until Feb of 2024. You might want to contact the gentleman that we are planning on using the hotel gave us his name. Very reasonably priced . His name is Caleb Knight calebknight17@yahoo.com

I just read that if you are in a Master suite you can dine in the the speciality restaurants every night. My question how do you make more than 3 reservations for those restaurants prior to boarding.

Is the Fairmount downtown in a good location to see places and great restaurants.

Not sure I can. I know it is an additional 699 each way plus the deviation fee. For the non stop ie is close to that amt.

Glad to know we made the right decision. We are too old to be under such stress. Not fun having stress after spending all that money for a cruise.

I know it is coach but they offer business for 699 each way. Cheaper than I can get. I want to know if I will be lucky and be able to deviate and get the flights I want . Hopefully others have flown from DFW Dallas to Vancouver and home from Anchorage using Regent Business Class. Just wondering what airlines they used.

That is exactly why we decided best to just spend night at the airport hotel and get up and catch the next flight. Connections too tight both ways.

Has anyone used and paid for Regent business class from DFW in Dallas to Vancouver and Home from Anchorage? What flights do they generally use and are they nonstop? It was so many years ago that we did this cruise I can’t remember what we did but I know we used Regent air both times? Times have changed now and not as easy as it use to be.

We too are most likely going to be looking at other options. We are both now 78 and the air situation and uncertainty and expense is just a lot. If you could just drive and board a ship it would be great. I guess we could just drive down to Galveston and get on a NCL ship which the haven suites are great and cruise around in the Caribbean ever so often.

We have never had any issues other than sometimes long waits for others until last Oct in LA for our Mexico cruise. I was looking all over the baggage claim area for a Regent sign. After about 20 minutes I located a gentleman and a lady and told them our name. Our name was not on their list. Thank goodness I showed them our paperwork with t.he transfer on it. They said they would have to call and get another car and driver. After waiting what seemed about an hour someone finally showed up. This was a mess. Thank goodness we used Blacklane for our transfer from the ship back to the airport. Worked like a charm.

What we are having to do on our Barbados to Barbados cruise in Feb on Splendor book our own air , transfers, and hotel. Regent is not providing hotels in Barbados so there therefore no transfers either. You can use their air but why would anyone do that if nothing else is provided. They still have all offered on this cruise website. We are flying to Miami spending the night at the airport and catching the flight to Barbados the next morning. We booked the Barbados Hilton and I sent them an email regarding a driver for transfers and he contacted me right away. We will be using him for all transfers. Hopefully it works out. We will have to take the 4:30 flight out back to Barbados so spending another night in Miami at the airport hotel and catching an early morning flight back to Texas. These are all American flights nonstop. This cruise is a real pain. Getting to and from Barbados is a real pain. Regent I believe is dropping Barbados as a debarkation or embarkation port. To expensive. The 300 for hotel credit no way covers the hotel and the breakfast and transfers. Regent seems to be falling behind on customer service but continues to raise prices.

We are arriving at the end of May. Thank you for all the info. We definitely want to go to the market and the bridge.

We have never been to Vancouver and prior to our cruise spending 2-3 days to see as much as we can of Vancouver. Also some of the greatest places to eat. We will be staying at the Fairmount downtown on George Street. There will be 3 adults and will be looking for private tours. Any suggestions will Ben greatly appreciated. If there are areas close to our hotel the Fairmount downtown to walk to to shop or eat let me know. Also is there a unique shopping area with a market and etc to see.

Several years ago going to Venice we went in 3 days early and booked the same hotel and when we arrived explained our situation and they kept us in the same room and we did not lose our transfers to ship and Regent paid for the one night hotel pre cruise. We did pay a deviation fee for going in early.

The thing that is very confusing and most likely concerning the cruise we are on in Feb from Bridgetown to Bridgetown is the two prices . There is the all inclusive price and the all cruise price. The issue is that on this cruise the Pre cruise Hotel is not offered and the transfers are not offered as all inclusive so really the only thing included is the air. This must be very confusing to those who want to book this cruise.

So if you book the cruise only fare you do not receive air, hotel, or transfers. Is this correct ? Regardless of the suite you book.

I believe one is if you use Regents air and the other is if you do not use the air and take the air credit. I was also told that this price also includes the hotel credit.

Ssawjo what hotel did you stay in? We are in the Barbados Hilton. Wondering how far from the Hilton to Champers?

Will do

Thank you Port Royal for the suggestions. I believe we will choose Champers
