This really is odd. Be great for someone from CC to drop in here and provide feedback. Hope they haven't been hacked😱 -

I agree. Thought it was a problem over our side of the world, but seems it's everyone. Hopefully we'll get an update soon. I didn't realise how much I enjoy getting notified about everyone's posts 🤞 -

I'm having the same problem. I haven't received any notifications for threads that I'm following since Saturday. When I go into these threads, I can see new posts. -
Live from the Grandeur by a Newbie to RSSC
Redking replied to taxman1's topic in Regent Seven Seas Cruises
Following along. I think I'll enjoy your humour as much as your Granduer review! We too will have our first Regent experience on Granduer but not until 2026. She'll be a Grand Dame by then😉 -
Very frustrating, sorry I can't help. We've cancelled the last of our Retreat bookings with Celebrity. A brave new world for us moving onto smaller ships and new cruise lines. It almost feels like anticipating our first cruise after sailing exclusively with Celebrity for 13 years. I do hope you get confirmation and enjoy your cruise.

🤣Left my heart there twice, fifty years apart! I love that city and the coast line.

Yes please. The live food intensive, not the flooding and snowstorms😉 Enjoy!

LIVE from Antarctica on Seabourn Pursuit! - Jan 7-19, 2024
Redking replied to bilbobill's topic in Seabourn Cruise Line
Adding my thanks for your taking the time to do this review. Curious and apologies if you've already covered this, was guest capacity on your cruise limited to 200? Seems to be the norm in the Antarctic. -
Again, I'm not much help.as this is not offered in the NZ market 😪 The people on this roll call might know? https://boards.cruisecritic.com.au/search/?type=forums_topic&search_and_or=or&search_in=titles&nodes=45&q=Mar March

Fortuitous that I've dropped in here because we're doing our first Scenic Eclipse cruise in nine weeks (can you sense the excitement) from Chile to Tahiti via Easter Island, a couple of other Chilean Islands and two of the Gambier Islands in French polynesia. We're then booked with them to do Antarctica in January 2025 (from NZ which is brilliant for us). We've cancelled our remaining Celbrity bookings to do Scenic on the recommendation of friends so 🤞I think it will require a shift in our thinking back to destination and not just the ship or discovery yacht as they call it. Closest I'll likely get to being on a gin Palace so I intend to consume G&T's and Negronis on a regular basis 🤣 As you say Charla, there's very little action on their CC forum so I plan to do a live(ish) and will post a link. There's also a great doco on them called Maritime Masters, not sure what streaming service it's on in the US? It features Tom Goetter, the chef that you mentioned. Also a good FB group, not a roll call, so hopeful I can mention it😱 Scenic Eclipse Cruisers. Watch this space!

Great point Jim. On reflection, when we first cruised with Celebrity we were in what I recall was their then target market: 55+ travelling with our then teenage/young adult family. We moved up to suites when the family stopped cruising with us (or at least we no longer offered to pay🤣) Time moved on .... we matured 🤫 and our family flew the nest (they occasionally cruise and have stayed with Celebrity.) I think you previously summed it up using a relationship metaphor ... maybe we're just not that into each other anymore 😕 Safe travels home and best wishes for a peaceful Xmas and healthy new year!

Sad you didn't make it there, it's a cool little capital. Also didn't have Bay of Islands. Bit puzzled about what X is doing with its itineraries. We felt we had very short times in port in the South Pacific last January. I suppose overnighting in Akl and CCH allows people to explore further inland? Either way I guess we should give thanks for our travels.

Spot on Jim, It's one of the world's roughest stretches of water, ferry crossings can be interesting. https://nzhistory.govt.nz/culture/cook-strait-rail-ferries/love-boats-or-chuck-buckets#:~:text=Cook Strait can also be,like a huge wind tunnel. At least you're rewarded by Wellington Harbour and the Marlborough Sounds at either end. Am I right in thinking you're not going to Wellington? I think it feels like a mini San Francisco with the steep streets and weather board houses or villas as you'll now know them. A friend who's from San Francisco completely disagrees though, heho!
