CruisingCleo Posted June 22, 2018 #26 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Thank you for the nice review. I just got off of the Marina a few weeks ago and could have posted an almost identical review of the ship and food. And being in a balcony cabin I can say that the ship was nice at that level too :) Julia Couldn’t agree more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithm Posted June 22, 2018 #27 Share Posted June 22, 2018 In general, itineraries in warmer areas will be more casual. Something about a jacket, even if it is unstructured, looks "dressed up". Like I said..Saw one person with jeans at night. That was it. Everyone else had slacks & collared shirts. A few coats in the GDM. A lot more coats in the specialty rest. Very few ties. just open collared. I liked the way everyone looked. It gave truth to the meaning of "Country Club Casual"(at least at our club)Not really agree with your idea of "dressed up".

graces7 Posted June 29, 2018 #28 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Glad you enjoyed yourself. For future reference (and despite the published 3 bottle limit), you can bring asmuch wine and spirits onboard for "no charge" in-cabin consumption as you so desire. Take wine to a meal = $25 corkage. Does this mean that we are able to bring spirits aboard? From the information I've read regarding Oceana's rules, this was forbidden.

graces7 Posted June 29, 2018 #29 Share Posted June 29, 2018 This is my first time posting and my questions is this: Reading this post implies we are allowed to bring unlimited bottles of spirits on board in addition to wine, but the information on the rules and regulations of Oceana, this is not allowed. I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted June 29, 2018 #30 Share Posted June 29, 2018 This is my first time posting and my questions is this: Reading this post implies we are allowed to bring unlimited bottles of spirits on board in addition to wine, but the information on the rules and regulations of Oceana, this is not allowed. I'm confused. You can bring a reasonable amount of spirits aboard for use in your cabin unlimited amounts not sure?? If you were on a 10 day cruise & try to bring on 10 bottles of Vodka they may take a dim view of that :halo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigNance Posted June 29, 2018 #31 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Thank you so much for you review! We will be first time Oceania cruisers in October on Riviera. We booked this for the ship experience and the itinerary (Greek Isles). The more my DH reads abut the ship (and the food), the harder time I am going to have prying him off the ship for our planned excursions!! Thank you again!

graces7 Posted June 29, 2018 #32 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Good to know because that's not what I had read. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted June 29, 2018 #33 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Good to know because that's not what I had read. Thank you! The rules you see on bringing wine/spirits is their legal out in case people abuse the generous policy of looking the other way If you do take spirits please drink them in your cabin & not walk around the ship with your handmade drinks spoiling it for others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graces7 Posted June 29, 2018 #34 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Fully agree. Just always nice to have a before dinner drink on the balcony early evening with one's travel mates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, you can bring your bottle of wine to dinner (any restaurant) and you can enjoy it for a $25 corkage fee. If the bottle is not finished, they will keep it for you until you want it again - in any restaurant for no additional corkage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ORV Posted June 29, 2018 #36 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Overalls? As in "work" or "farmer" overalls? Worn by men or women or both? Somehow I can't picture it on the typical Oceania passenger. Sent from my iPad using Forums Actually I've seen that on Oceania, as well as work type suspenders with jeans. We didn't see jeans or shorts at night except on one person. We're booked again next Jan. You do realize the conversation was about the Terrace and not the GDR? Perfectly okay to wear either anywhere except dining rooms(exception Terrace) after 6. That rule don't apply on Oceania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flatbush Flyer Posted June 29, 2018 #37 Share Posted June 29, 2018 Does this mean that we are able to bring spirits aboard? From the information I've read regarding Oceana's rules, this was forbidden. As others responding point out: the published rules are an Oceania "CYA." As long as people don't abuse the unwritten privilege, all will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
