    I've only been on 4 cruises (so far) 2 with Royal Carribean and 2 with Oceania and for me it will be Oceania all the way! I love the way I feel pampered and catered to. I appreciate not having to waiti in line, the meals were all Exceptinal and the service truly remarkable. While the shows are not the same calibre as RC, for me the truly relaxed feel on Oceania is worth the trade off. BTW , as a Canadian who isn't a fan of the cold, I have never wanted to go to Alaska. but you've got me looking into Last Minute Oceania Alaska Cruises for this season!!

    Oceania is our cruise line of choice. We like it because there are rarely any children on board. However, we did a cruise over Christmas where there were many multigenerational families, and there were several special activities for the children. It was so much fun and really put us in the Christmas spirit. We haven't been on the Regatta since it was refurbished, and it looks beautiful.

    Thank you for the Oceania experience so far. This is interesting for the value in comparison to other cruise lines. Keep us posted on your cruise and what you are getting for the cost.

    Congratulations, the more hosting invites on new lines the better. We're eyeballing the ultra luxury market ourselves, but they would probably have to be reposition or rare. I can sail into the Amazon for cheaper per night on Viking Ocean than HAL. In this day of crazy mass market pricing, it pays to compare, and consider all that is included.

    This is great! Will you do a full review of your disembarkation in Vancouver? You mentioned that it is Norwegians mid range (premium) ship. Would the food be at all comparable to any other "premium" brands food.

    What was your room nunber? We are going on the Nautica in December. It is the sister ship of the Regatta. We are bringing our adult daughter with us. We have a veranda room for 3. Was the bed comfortable for your son? We were on the Regatta last year. Absolutely loved our time on board.

    We did 35 days on Regatta and round the showers very SMALL, unless you were in a penthouse they were the same size regardless of your category. Personally, we wouldn’t go on Regatta again (found decor very old fashion) BUT we would definitely sail on Oceania again and we are doing 2 cruises on Vista next month.

    How about the impact of a smaller ship on seasickness potential? The smallest ship we've been on has had 1800 passengers and pretty stable. Bit concerned about movement with such a small vessel.

    • @CruiseTipsTV
      @CruiseTipsTV  10 дней назад

      I definitely feel the motion more on small ships, but it depends where you're going. Alaska's inside passage tends to be VERY calm!

      Absolutely. In fact, we're already looking at Asia itineraries with Oceania. We love small ships, and our cruises on smaller ships have been among our favorites. We may choose a shorter itinerary though, if we cruised with our son.

    Oceania is pronounced "Oh she an ee a", there is an i two letters from the end of Oceania

    • @CruiseTipsTV

      That was our initial impression too, but according to Oceania, it is not pronounced with the “IA” at the end. Please see this video on their RUclips channel that they shared with us to answer this question. ruclips.net/video/XIH0pi2Lht8/видео.htmlsi=Zaz27PQH2jnjvXVd

      @@CruiseTipsTV Thanks however I just finished a 10 day cruise with them and all the personnel who worked for the company pronounced it with the IA. Captain, officers, sales people, etc. Not sure why the ad did not. I also thought it wasn't pronounced until I spent time on the ship listening to the crew.

      It's pronounced Oh-She-Ann-Ah. For reference- you can hear the pronunciation in some of the videos on their RUclips page, like this one: ruclips.net/video/XIH0pi2Lht8/видео.htmlsi=mkrpWN-DFADupXxb
