Thank you!

Ok, I think they sent us to the MDR last time. If you go to a specialty restaurant can they make all the reservations or just for that venue?

I have the ultimate dining package on the Oasis in a couple weeks. I am diamond status. I would like to make reservations so I can get my preferred time as soon as I get onboard. Where is the best place to do this? Is the diamond lounge open with someone that could help me? Last time I waited forever in a long line at the MDR. Is there another option?

Depends how much you enjoy (or don't enjoy) the MDR. Some do specialty dining every night because they want the service and atmosphere of a more intimate venue. If you need a different venue each night to justify the cost, then I'd skip it on the smaller ships.

I did the 4 night package on our last Harmony cruise and loved it!!! We only ate in the MDR on formal nights (love the lobster).

I have done 18 cruises so far and am getting tired of the MDR food. The food in the specialty restaurants we have tried was great but wouldn’t we get tired of the menu at Chops and Giovannis every night? Has anyone done that? I don’t like the A La Carte pricing at Izumi and you can’t go to chefs table, right?

Would you recommend it on a smaller ship? We are on the Serenade B2B next August for the Baltic. I was wondering if there would be enough variety.

I am so excited to see this! My husband and are are booked to do our first B2B next August 2019. We are flying into Copenhagen for Scandinavian/ Russia (we don’t visit Latvia) and then back to Copenhagen for the Norway Fjords all on the Serenade. I couldn’t find any reviews either. I am in the process of looking for flights. Any advice you have would be appreciated. [emoji2]

You won't be able to see the vast majority of flights for August 2019 until September 2018.

So, if I wait, I should be able to find a reasonable priced premium economy or business class through Air2Sea? Or is it better to book directly through the airline or another travel agent? I also saw something about booking 2 one way tickets or does that only apply if you booking from different cities? We are doing a B2B but arriving and leaving from Copenhagen.

I do, and book on a Tuesday. Not sure it really matters, but someone told me that and it often works.

 

Currently have 6 flights booked either to Barcelona or Copenhagen from Orlando

 

All in Business Class with lie flat seats. Average price under $1,000 with only one stop. :cool:

 

Forgot to add, those are all one way tix

I need a flight from Orlando to Copenhagen for August 2019. Choice Air told me nothing was available. I would have to fly out of Miami, transfer in Newark with only economy class available and each ticket would be over a 1,000. What airline are you flying on?

In the last 2 weeks on my planner the drinks package has went from 42 to 45 and now 48. I’m about 3 months out, will there likely be an offer before sail date?

 

Also, with the deluxe package glasses of wine are included but only 40% off the full bottle price? Why would someone buy the bottle when glasses are included? Is it simply the convenience of having full bottle to yourself at your dinner table, etc.?

The choice of wine by the glass that is included in the package is very limited. The 40% includes all bottles up to a certain price.
