Regent orders 2 new ships - deliveries in 2026 and 2029.
irishwitchy replied to Pcardad's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
I normally respect your opinion and thoughts, but next time a better sentence maybe- I hope, I think, I believe, I’m guessing that the voyager will be gone in 2026. Your statement only generated some panic, instead of the discussion you were looking for. -
You may get a few side way looks because of the kids, but as long as they aren’t shooting water guns at guests in the pool or throwing a ball around, you should be good. As for things to do, I know my 11 year old grandaughter could spend hours working on a puzzle, loves to curl up with a good book, do a scavenger hunt, add some youth knowledge to the trivia team, eat ice cream and pizza for lunch and than go have a medium rare steak for dinner. Add a virgin strawberry daiquiri to the mix and she would be one happy kid. Funny, sounds like the same thing many of the adults enjoy doing! Yes, you may need really review the excursions, to avoid the long boring bus trip - haha I hate them, also. Where are you thinking of going? Good luck!

I agree on the amount of wine being poured during the cooking classes is a bit disappointing. Like, none of us cook and drink at the same time when we are home!

Oh, that would be the deciding factor for many! Lol.

We were on this cruise and Regent didn’t really handle the problems well, but it wasn’t really the fault of the Explorer (the problems could have been any ship). Did it sour me a bit on cruising - it did. However since I cruised with them four times before the bad, disappointing cruise I’m giving them another chance later this year. Good luck.

Question about disembarking in Fusina
irishwitchy replied to Avidtravler's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
I’m going to jump on this thread, we are cruising from Istanbul to Trieste (not Fusina), in August. Would they change this? Any idea what that transportation looks like at Trieste and is there an option to get dropped off at the train station or someplace else in Venice proper? -

Valid point! -
Lounge Hogs: Regent's Failure to Act or Respond

I will make an assumption that the ship has folks that are security, not just staff. Put them in a red shirt with the word security on their back in big letters and folks may actually follow the rules! Just a thought. -
Regent's Exursion planning Staff is non-existent.

Love the whale descriptions from papaflamingo and cwn. The only person that knows what you can actually do is you and maybe a wise spouse! Honey, not sure you should try that! -
Worked just fine. No prices.

Regent Tahiti Cruises in their summer....?
irishwitchy replied to NanJ0508's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
No missed ports? -
Since you start and end in CapeTown, why not go spent a very nights in the wine region and enjoy a bunch of vineyards? I Will make one comment, as much as I was there in October one year for multiple nights (we had a driver), I have no idea if the vineyards close down around the holidays.

We really like the jumping crocs and the mushroom soup!

Delta Cancels Contract with Regent
irishwitchy replied to CatServants's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
I also read this, I’m expecting we will see more on this. I always book my own tickets directly with the airlines. No major issues to speak of, except misplaced luggage. -
At this point, you won’t see much change on the website. However, once you get in the room and before you unpack. Locate your excursion tickets and the descriptions. Do a very quick review and run to destinations services to modify, change, etc. There will be a line, but getting yourself added to a waitlist is helpful. Check back a day later also. You may also find that the 9:30 departure has turned into a 7:00 departure, which is not to your liking! Also, these description have much better details than what you read online. Good luck.

Regent's Exursion planning Staff is non-existent.
irishwitchy replied to hkparadise's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
It would so useful to everyone if the descriptions of the excursions that you finally get on the cruise, were the ones you see on the website. The website descriptions sound like AI wrote them and seem to rather vague in many cases. -
Interesting comments from all. I was thinking the average may have been a bit lower, because of the location or at least only the fit would get off the ship! Guess we need to roll the dice!

Emergencies do happen, but I’m curious do you know what the issue was? It seems like this Scenario has happen frequently and causes the cruise to divert. Since, there is an extensive medical forms to be filled out, are the emergencies more of the broken bone or heart attack or something else?

Best of luck and thank you for your help!

Are you suggesting an explorer ship that can actually land in Antarctica?
