Can we send out things to just have pressed (ex. slacks, etc) that don't really need to be washed? Or is there a separate charge for pressing?

And I almost feel guilty about asking for this on the "wish list"....a true first world problem....(giggle!) Please re-do the Queen's grill bar....it's been the same, exact thing since the very first time we cruised her , back in the dim dawn of time. It's definately the most boring bar on the ship. I realize that logistics come into play, but isn't there some bright ship's architect who could come up with something better? Please???!!!!!

We're with you in the hoping department! We're on the Xmas cruise and hope to see some new enhancements! She could use some!

Is there any word on when (or if) the QM2 will get some TLC this year?

Pacific Rim....lamb chops and lobster tempura

Do you think he's on for the Amazon? Or someone else? Bartender at the pool bar, anyone?

All inclusive

Depending on the day and time, the traffic on the Rome to Civitavecchis route can be brutal. We've had it both ways.....a "zoom" and a "snails pace". I like mj's take on enjoying that first day on the ship.....best people watching of the entire trip! haha!

Thanks, Pappy! That gives me hope!. Actually Regent shows the date, the ship, etc. on our account, so they must have that info somewhere. As Pcardad mentions, I've thrown it to our TA to sort out with Regent.

We're on the Navigator Amazon cruise in 10 days. It's been waitlisted for ever. A couple of weeks ago, the was a sniglet of opening for guarantees in the stern cabins and one lonely E in the very front of the ship.That disappeared almost instantly. Now it's waitlisted again, across the whole ship. As much as the little Navigator gets bashed regularly (unless you're a devotee, as we are), it still has the best itineraries of any Regent ship, imho.

Does anyone know when Regent started to keep track of previous cruises? We did one with them before they went AI (2005) and although that cruise shows on our account, it doesn't seem to be included in our cruise nights. I don't understand why it wouldn't be, as Regent is the one who has shown it, but only with a dash and no nights credited. Any thoughts on this? Or should we just give up on those lost days...?

Silversea uses it in all staterooms as well.

We’re only in a lowly penthouse however I’m hopeful with the Guerlain. In the past I’ve liked their fragrances. I can deal!

Oh… good to know and will keep in mind! I don’t like the l’occitain shampoo at all . Maybe the Bulgari will be nice. Gosh! Talk about a first world problem! Feeling a little guilty………but not too much! (giggle!)

Mmmmm! Guerlain would be wonderful!

Sounds great! Thank you!

We have never been in a penthouse before. Are the toiletries the same as the lower grade cabins or will there be something different?

No leather here either. Almost platinum but still the plastic/paper ones. This is a cut above Cunard where we have to print, fold and staple, even tho we’ve always done grill class! Be happy with what you got!!

Thanks, all for the quick responses! We are on a waitlist for the excursion, have been for a long time. Maybe, after boarding we'll hear something, otherwise we'll just toss it to our butler and see what happens.

We will be on the Navigator in a penthouse for the first time. Can a butler work on getting a shore excursion that's sold out....or should I hit the destination services desk when we board. It's not until later in the cruise. Can a butler bring caviar on occasion as an afternoon snack. I know it's out there for Sundays, but didn't know if we could request some for in the cabin....

When life gives lemons, lemonade? or perhaps a Margaritta?! Looked like a most wonderful stop!

We just recently did the wine lunch on the Splendor. I don't think you can sign up for this before boarding, but if you know you want to do this for sure, ask for the head sommelier at dinner your first night. They will advise you to when it will be and you'll be put on the list to receive an invitation sent to your cabin with dates, price, etc. Then sign up immediately as it sells out fast! Well worth the cost (in our opinion) and lots of fun!

This was a new one for us and we loved it.....very nice!

I can't speak (yet!) for the Navigator as we're on the Amazon adventure in March too, but we're just off the Splendor. Yes, there was a smattering of masks being worn. Absolutely no issue that I heard of with anyone who chooses to wear one. If you'd like to wear a mask, I think you'll be totally comfortable with that option.

Had to look it up.... Fairmont Monte Carlo....amazing hotel with cliental to match!
