AussieVisi2r Posted May 28, 2014 #301 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Boarding in 3 weeks!!! Sooooo excited. Quick question from the roll call about currency exchange on board in the Baltics.... I know the on board rate of exchange will be nasty..... do they change from foreign currency to $$ then to the local currency? Will make it all the worse.... Sooooo excited for you.

ccotting Posted May 29, 2014 #302 Share Posted May 29, 2014 We will be on the Legend in September. I went to make specialty restaurant reservations. For all three places on Legend it only offers me 8 or 8:30 or 9 pm. What gives? Is it too far out, do they hold back earlier times, or could it really be that full this far off. (we have fully paid for the cruise already). Thanks in advance! I agree with the earlier posting that there will be some spots left for on board booking but having recently sailed on Legend, this Chops is a bit smaller. We enjoyed it very much and found the service better than on some previous cruises with other ships of the line. I think it may also be the days you chose. Sometimes the 'at sea' days are busier, often because those are often formal nights and some folks choose the speciality restaurants those nights to escape having to dress more formally. When you board this ship, they generally have a bit of a welcome 'fair' in the pool area with information about the speciality restaurants, drink packages and spa. If you head there you can talk to staff about booking. Also, on this ship the Park Cafe staff are the staff for Chops and the manager does both. We found them excellent and wonderfully helpful.

MindyJohn Posted July 3, 2014 #309 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Big heads up for Marko at Latte-tudes. Say Linda sent you. In MTD ask to be sat with Justin and/or Andrea. Lucian rates amongst the top 2 Head Waiters I have come across. We are also huge fans of Lucian - for some reason though I've always referred to him as Luciano. Maybe it's because the first time we met him he was our waiter on Mariner on a TA from Rome to Galveston. So perhaps during the time he was based in Italy he went by Luciano. Anyway, we love the guy. It's the only time I've ever trusted 100% a waiter's recommendations. He always told me what I would like and I was never disappointed. We were so happy to see him on Legend when we boarded in Singapore in 2013 and saw him again as Head Waiter on our recent TA. He's such a pro ! Our other fav was Mustafa on AOS.

newfiegirl4 Posted December 8, 2014 #324 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Hey, also going on this cruise on the 20/Mar/2015......AKA.......Spring Break.....oh noooooo!! Didn't realize that at time of booking......different here in Canada!! Holy moly! Just off the Vision and there were 560+ kids on board!! I went for a break......lol Oh dear, I hope the parents have better control of their kids than this last cruise.......loud,rude,misbehaving,......even in the hot tub.....where they are suppose to have supervision.....lol seems parents(not all) bring there kids on board a ship and let them run wild!!! Really sad to see the same kids doing this too. Especially when there are seniors !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharonlacey Posted December 8, 2014 #325 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I doubt that there will be a lot of children as this is a 10 night cruise. Usually longer cruises do not attract family's with young children.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
