3418ahl Posted January 31, 2011 Author #26 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Since I am the OP, and I will bring an Azamara tote bag with me, which are zip up, NON-LOGO bags, this is a non-issue. I am hoping we will very much enjoy Oceania, as we did Azamara, but I am disappointed that they do not serve fresh OJ in the dining room, and that I will have to bring my own tote bag.

Rare LHT28 Posted January 31, 2011 #27 Share Posted January 31, 2011 It is like people wearing T-shirts from other cruise lines onboard ;) WHO CARES!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susiesan Posted January 31, 2011 #28 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Since I am the OP, and I will bring an Azamara tote bag with me, which are zip up, NON-LOGO bags, this is a non-issue. I am hoping we will very much enjoy Oceania, as we did Azamara, but I am disappointed that they do not serve fresh OJ in the dining room, and that I will have to bring my own tote bag. I'd recognize that tote bag as I have 2 of them, given on each AZ cruise I've taken no matter the cabin category. As someone who orders logo items for my business, I know how much tote bags would cost O in the quantities they would be ordering for the entire fleet. Less than $2 a each. A small gesture of appreciation for very little investment. Free advertising as passengers use their tote bags when they get home to carry groceries, lunch, etc., and people stop them and say "Hey, what's Oceania cruise line? Never heard of it." Then we would be telling people what a wonderful cruise line it is. 3418ahl: I loved the breakfast smoothie bar on AZ with the fresh squeezed OJ.

JimandStan Posted January 31, 2011 #29 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I've held off on posting about this issue, but I'm wondering if my solution wouldn't solve some of this controversy... Having these bags personalized costs next to nothing. We bring several and give them to friends on the ship as keepsakes. ;) hats are fun too- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wripro Posted January 31, 2011 #30 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I simply can't believe anyone would care if someone brought another line's tote bag aboard? Why should it bother anyone? I routinely wear t shirts from different lines, If it bothers anyone I suggest they make an appointment with their shrink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetiredFL Posted January 31, 2011 #33 Share Posted January 31, 2011 We enjoy seeing people with tote bags/t-shirts from other cruise lines, tour groups, etc. It provides a conversation opener as to how they enjoyed the other cruise line/tour, where they went and how their experience compared with Oceania. But then again we have been known to wear a GAP shirt into Macys and a Sonoma t-shirt to Napa so I guess we are just rebels at heart! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primetime99 Posted January 31, 2011 #34 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I seldom post but have gotten a wealth of info from CC. This thread puts me in mind of the "infamous" formal wear posts. I never notice what someone is wearing or carrying. Perhaps it's because I am enjoying their company and conversation. We cruise HAL as well as Oceania. I will use my HAL tote on our upcoming cruise with O since they don't provide one. Marilyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floridiana Posted February 1, 2011 #35 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Good to know that HAL provides a tote bag. Otherwise, I would bring Azamara's to our Oceania cruise. :rolleyes: Is there an umbrella in the stateroom? Binoculars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted February 1, 2011 #36 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Is there an umbrella in the stateroom? Binoculars? There is a large golf type umbrella binoculars only in some of the upper level suites we usually bring our own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimandStan Posted February 2, 2011 #43 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Thanks Henry & Paul- We're packed now and anxiously watching a winter storm that is "supposed" to pass through tomorrow. If the good Lord is willing, and the creek don't rise, we'll be in Miami on Thursday night, in time to watch "the girl" come in at the crack of dawn on Friday :D Don't worry, we'll post plenty of pictures!
