Jeph_in_SK Posted February 10, 2017 #52 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Excellent review. My family and I were on the same cruise. The Vista does not deserve the negativity its been receiving. Wonderful ship and fantastic crew working it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensenigr Posted February 11, 2017 Author #53 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Thank you for your west coast perspective review. I've noticed a difference in style and approach to east coast reviews. We're from NorCal cruising the Vista in Nov '17 and July '18, both 8-day cruises. Your review has some great pointers and insight. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Sent from my iPhone using Forums You are welcome and I wish you two awesome upcoming cruises! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuccicruisers Posted February 11, 2017 #56 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Thank you for the great information - we have the same itinerary in August. Do you happen to recall what night they served lobster in the mdr? I want to make a steakhouse reservation but I will be in serious trouble with my son if I happen to pick lobster night. Thank you!

nae418 Posted February 11, 2017 #58 Share Posted February 11, 2017 There were a total of 12 Ziplines on this course. Many times you landed on a platform and you started the next line on the same platform. Other times you had to walk to the next platform. I would say it took about 1 hour from the start of the first zip line to the end. The only line we waited in was for the first line, and the staff made it move very quickly from that point forward. The Zipline did take pictures and they were relatively good. They were reasonable and were only $10 each. The tour description states that there are no cameras allowed; however, once we arrived we learned that pictures and video were allowed. I would recommend a GoPro if you have one; however, we did not. Thanks so much! Cant wait to sail on Vista! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atakkat Posted February 11, 2017 #59 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Awesome review. We are celebrating many milestones in 2018 on this itinerary! You have only whetted my appetite! Can you give any insight on the chef table menu? Also was the ziplining through Carnival as well? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us Lobster night was the first formal night, which was the second night of our eight night cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine it could possibly change from time to time; however, some of the dishes we had included (but not limited to) Spring Pea Matcha Soup Pork Belly & Shrimp Slow cooked crispy Lamb Olive Oil poached Seabass Veal with crushed green apple ....And so much more!

YourCruiseGurl Posted February 12, 2017 #63 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Exciting! The countdown is on! There is a lifeboat overhead (as with most cove balconies); however, I think maybe about 4 cabins to the right (about 2304) there is an opening. Yes! We are so excited! It's my sister's first time cruising so we're having a lunch meeting to go over everything. Thanks for the info about the cabin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
