[cruisestitch]

Am on board for the next seven days. Ask away

Thanks! Looking to book Silhouette soon for a Mar 17 cruise. What type of cabin are you in?

[smh071]

We are leaving March 13th so the entertainment should be the same. Who are the comedians and other non-show entertainment? Thanks in advance.

[cindy1957]

Saw you leave! My question is about the wine dispensers in Cellar Masters. Are the still there? Can you buy wine cards?

[masspector]

Will be on April 23. Is molecular bar still there? If not, what is world bar like? Any pics or menus?

 

How is the internet? Is the fast one installed yet?

 

Thanks,

[Sandy1975]

Perfect timing! Could you tell me what is in the decadence martini? The one that has the coffee beans floating in the drink? Thanks!

Ms. Stitch,

 

Have a great cruise. :)

[WestLakeGirl]

Won't know the whole list of entertainers until later in the cruise. Opening night comedian was Al Ducharme.

 

Will investigate other questions tomorrow, post waffle.

I'm sailing on the 28th. Would appreciate info on cashing in OBC in the casino - is it still possible to cash in non-refundable OBC for the 5% fee?

Watched sail away.....ship looked like it is not full

The usual sail away /cruise Critics at the OV bar was nearly empty......not elbow to elbow with drink in hand as usual......just wondered.....have fun 😎😎

Appreciate knowing if and if so Bistro on 5 is converting to a sushi restaurant? Hoping not before Apr 10 transatlantic

Thanks

Ah, you know me too well, yes, waffles came first!

 

A couple of things I have learned so far. Enomatic machines are still here for now. The same with Molecular Bar. There's no indications when they will change.

 

The seas are a bit night, so tonight's production show is postponed and there will be a singer. I'll get her name later.

 

I haven't been to the casino yet, not Bistro on 5, but I will stop by bother later today.

 

The ambient music level is delightful. That's been a real pet peeve of mine. So far no annoyingly loud music has been in evidence!

 

There are no longer any iced teas listed on the menu at Cafe Al Bacio, but they can still be ordered.

 

More later.....

Thanks for posting! My aunt is on the ship, first time cruiser and she was nervous about rough seas and noro virus. So, I'll be following along your thread this week!

We just left Silly on 14 Feb 15 and missed the first night comedian in Quasar, Al Ducharme was on our last night, there is a singer, the new X big show called Life, was overall, very good singing, dancing and cirque style intermingled.

 

There was a show on the pool deck one evening along with the DJ.

 

Dancing in the atrium to the house band early, then changes over to DJ's.

 

Sky lounge was very quiet for the most part, from my experience on several visits.

 

If anyone see's Vasilly at QSine, tell him Samuel says hello, he is a great server and helpful.

 

If you get to Murano, ask for Walter, great great waiter....

 

Enjoy and have fun...

 

bon voyage

If you are Aqua...fantastic, fun group in Blu!

Internet seems quite slow on my iPad, but speed is fine in the ILounge. They say that they hear that fast internet is on its way but have no timeline.

 

Molecular Bar is on the way out, will be changed over to World Class Bar on or about February 24.

 

I spoke to the staff in Bistro on 5 who say that they are aware of rumors regarding a sushi bar there, but have heard nothing official.

We were on last week and I posted on the OBC thread. They are not allowing it anymore. Someone on Reflection reported the same last week.

Looks like he won't be on our cruise. He will be in San Antonio when we sail. Too bad he is funny!!

Hi:

 

Thanks for doing this. Can you tell us who the senior officers/ cruise director currently are?

 

Thanks!!!!

[cruisestitch]

Officers and staff have been posted in the Who's on board thread.

HI,

 

I'm on the 7/1 sailing from Amsterdam. I'm a terrible sleeper so I booked an inside cabin #1144 on the 10th deck. When I look at the ship's schematic I see a white space above my cabin. Would you be so kind as to see what that white space is being used as? Or, if you have the time, can you ask the people in 1144 if it's a quite cabin? I appreciate any info. you can obtain as my Dec. cruise had a white space next to me and I was promised that it didn't have anything "noisy" in it. Well, that wasn't so. Every morning promptly at 7:30 AM it sounded like a train was going through my cabin for about 10 seconds. Needless to say, I woke up early and was exhausted during the day.

 

Many thanks,

Chantal

We were on the Silhouette last month and got cash from the casino twice with fee of course.

Yes, it was used towards our non-refundable credit.

[crusinpeg]

On the silhouette right now and can no longer get cash in casino...only casino credit
