Hello, I am looking for a referral, sailing is next month.  andrea mah at telus dot net  Thanks.

Happy to help.

Happy to help if you would like. Sent you a message.

I am happy to refer anyone who will be cruising soon. I will be on Seabourn in June and January. My email is sandy625 at yahoo.

He is fantastic!

Happy to help if you still need one.

Please email me at sandy625 at yahoo.com.

I am so very sorry to hear of his passing. May he rest in peace.

Does anyone know who the cruise director and assistant cd will be in the Caribbean next month? Have never been on the Odyssey and think I might not know much of the staff this time. Thanks!

I agree. I am on an upcoming sailing and am very disappointed.

Thank you regarding the jacket. I am in between sizes so I will size down and hope it's right.

According to friends of mine on board the jacket runs big. But there is a jacket exchange as there was in Antarctica. Also note the light lining does not zip out.

 

Jenidallas and Marazul,

 

I really appreciate your reports and positive attitudes. This clearly was an issue that came at Seabourn from out of left field but I am reassured by your comments that Seabourn is keeping the passengers informed and trying to develop an acceptable plan B.

 

Can you tell me a little about the scenery, if any you have enjoyed from the ship, and if you have seen much marine life so far?

Hi! We will be on board in a few weeks, so I will follow this thread. One quick question: do you feel the jackets fit true to size/large/small? Thanks!

On board now. Anyone else on board, feel free to add your comments here.

 

A few quick comments:

 

Embarkation went smoothly. Unfortunately, the luggage scanners at the terminal were not working so no one got their luggage until after the safety drill.

 

The jackets are quite nice. There was a jacket exchange this morning to get your correct size.

 

Jan is the CD and Sophie is the assistant CD.

 

Tonight is the formal night and this is a quote from the Herald:

"In all other venues, guests are welcome in Elegant Casual attire. Kindly note: jeans are not appropriate in the Main Restaurant after 6 pm"

 

This is a sea day and there are lectures, bridge and many activities scheduled every second of the day.

 

Everything else is up to the usual standards.

I have one in my possession. Happy to help.

Yes, we were really looking forward to the stop in Bar Harbor. I've never been. Next time!

We couldn't get to Charlottetown. Shame you couldn't get to Bar Harbor. Bar Harbor I had the best and cheapest lobster (thanks to Chairsin's, if I remember correctly, tips).

We did it last year and really enjoyed it. We couldn't get to Bar Harbor because of bad weather, but the rest of the trip was really nice, weather-wise. We enjoyed many of the ports.

Hi,

 

For the past few years I've been looking for a trip that stops at some of the lesser-known ports such as Baie-Comeau, Gaspe, Perce, Isle de la Madeleine, etc. Pearl Seas has one that stops at all of these, and is a trip I'm seriously considering; however, I recently came across this cruise that sails on the Quest and noticed that it stops at a few of the ports I'm interested in. I have a particular interest in Montreal and noticed that this cruise starts there. That would work out well since I'd like to spend at least an extra day there before the cruise begins.

 

If anyone has done this cruise or has any thoughts / recommendations on Seabourn in general, please pass them along. The Quest was in port at Ushuaia on our recent Antarctica cruise, and so it got me thinking about Seabourn and what they might have to offer in the way of Canada and the St. Lawrence.

 

Thanks for any input!

Just a warning, depending on when they booked, a lot of the Alaska cruises are coming with shipboard credit, so if they are getting credit from Seabourn I don't believe they will be able to combine a referral credit. They'd need to check on that.

Thank you for pointing that out. Looks like my itinerary switched too. Glad to hear it's an upgrade!

Jan had just started her new contract on 10/1 when we were on Quest so I would guess she would still be the cruise director. She is very nice.

Thank you both! The cruise is in the Mediterranean, with both city and island stops. The other side was already taken, so I suspect it might be prime viewing, but ocean *or* coast both sound great to me! I saw the deck is slightly smaller on the middle ones, but having two viewing angles at once sounds great.

It's on the Sojourn, so I think the suites will be brand new in June.

So it sounds like if I have a choice between 1091 and 1093 that 1093 (the corner) is the way to go?

Update: Mine is spoken for.

If anyone is sailing for the first time before I am on 6/10, I have a referral coupon available.

Email me at sandy625 at yahoo dot com and I will be happy to get one out to you.

I've sadly never encountered the massage moments on deck either!

To those who have used it as a credit toward a longer treatment, do you recall how much of a credit they gave?

I have one if you still need it.

Hi everyone - newbie here. I am sending my Mom on the April 17 Seabourn Quest cruise and I would really appreciate a coupon. My e-mail is erik@harveybp.com

 

Do I need the coupon in hand before I make a booking or can I go ahead and then apply the coupon retroactively?

I'll be at the Westin Dawn Beach shortly (staying on points). I can report back if you end up having an interest in the hotel.
