We did a b2b, we packed everything up and had the Butler arrange the move and left the ship when we wanted (early). When we came back we just stopped at the front desk for a new key for the new suite.
-
One would think they would have laundry included with a named suite.
-
Good for you😄In actually saw someone put their finger in the salad dressing to taste it and see which one they liked. I pointed it out to an "O" person--right away she closed down and talked to the person.
-
Hi, hope all is well.
-
Have they stopped the lounge hogs yet?😁 You really cares, some people are just cheap and that will never change---it's just like gratuities are included.
-
I really don't care either, but when people abuse a policy that involves money - it won't belong until a company takes away that benefit -then everyone losses.
-
No one is really concerned, but if you read the program it does state for lunch and dinner. I don't drink either. But I do hate it when people abuse a policy and then complain about pricing, etc.... Really it just shows the character of the person.
-
Couldn't agree more with you, I understand exactly.
-
Exactly....I'm just talking about people trying to beat the system....anything else no one should care.
-
I don't disagree with you, I'm just saving if you buy the glass of wine, or your on the drink package-not wrong. However if your on the package that includes wine at lunch or dinner then sit at the table and finish it. Otherwise wait until you get to a bar to buy it. Just an opinion........
-
Yes they do (Which is generous of "O"), but the rules state that purchase is for consumption in your suite (unless on wine you pay the corkage charge.
-
If it's not part of your drink package, and you purchased the bottle off ship. Yes it is..........
-
WE aren't talking about people playing by the rules--It's the people that want to take advantage of the situation. Those that order a glass of wine just before getting up---or those that purchased a bottle off ship and pour a glass of wine or cocktail to take outside of the suite. Sorry but it happens probably more than we think.
-
Yes, but it's for in suite use only, not to be taken outside.........
-
I know, I've seem it too...it's just plain being cheap. Then they wonder why prices go up.
-
It really shouldn't be allowed, if you're cruising you should be able to follow the rules. Taking a glass of wine into dinner is wrong--as well as taking one out of a restaurant. Why be petty to save a few dollars. If you want to drink around the ship, buy the drink package.
-
Thank you for your posting, enjoying reading. The corkage charge I really don't understand. If you don't drink "O's" wine and drink your own--they are saving money. I could understand if you we're paying for a glass of wine.

They should make it OBC, it's the right thing to do--period. -
Showing up early or late for dining reservation
ronrick1943 replied to miscstuff1's topic in Oceania Cruises
I think it depends on staffing, but being late-that would mess up the timing they planned to turn that table. Also if you're going to be late for a very good reason, call and explain I'm sure they would try to make it work-but if they can't-hope you understand and move on........ -
On the last Alaska cruise we took, I was sitting on the balcony and a Bald Eagle flew and landed on the railing of my balcony. They are big, I thought after landing and seeing me he'd take off. That wasn't the case, he stayed for about 30 minutes - and yes I didn't move until he was on his way.
-
That actually makes sense - Wonder why it took so long........
-
You're on vacation or holiday - you like a flavor or you don't, life is to short, enjoy what you like and leave the rest for someone that enjoys what you don't. I wonder once one gets off the ship how long you wait for a blood test that was scheduled the week you got home----after all you don't want your doctor to know how your eat and dessert while away😂😜do you?
-
If you already booked the cruise I wouldn't think they can add charges at this time. I'd think your TA should be looking after you as a customer. We always book are own flights and hotel so we have full control of what we want.......that said we always leave a few days early before the cruise and stay a few extra days after the cruise.

I believe I saw that named suite get one printed newspaper. So I would bet if they can get it you'd be able to order one (at a cost).
