With the UDP you can only book once on board.

It may now say that but has always been the case. Drink menu prices rise $1 in Australia at least but probably UK also as we don't tip.

Liability issues are not what they used to be. The reason given for opening the alcoholic drinks is for the responsible service of alcohol. Who's to say someone doesn't hoard the drinks in their room until the last night, drinks them all and then falls down and breaks their leg before taking the company to court for irresponsible practices. Most sensible people would see this as ridiculous but there are a minority.

Wel done, and in Australia, the best casinos of all.

This is the problem with food opinions, people have different tastes. I think the hotdogs and el loco fresh are average at best and some of the worst food on the ships yet this is the only thing you liked. I really like a lot of the food in most other places. If my wife cooked up most of the meals in the MDR I wouldn't have to cook every night.

Where is the rip off exactly?

Not reputable cruise blogs, just someone trying to overdramatise the situation to get hits. Very rarely happens and even when it does most times people get a call in advance offering compensation to swap out.

It's a small cafe it's supposed to be limited, so many other places on the ship with loads of choices.

While I appreciate your views, I've seen just as many say Sorrentos is horrible but other food is great. Just proves taste is subjective.

No it's not that bad, unfortunately the nature of human behaviour states if something is bad even a little bit I should tell the world. One review thousands read it and everyone says ooo the MDR iss horrible now. Satisfied people don't feel the need for the attention.

The people seating were terrible because you didn't like the table they gave you? Sorry but the rest of the review is pointless.

Sensible business decision more than anything, cynicism not required.

If we stopped doing things based on things that have happened before we would never go anywhere.

I am Australian and have previous cruise buddies on that cruise. They are aware of a number of cabins on deck 3 being used to isolate sick crew. There have been a lot of reports of both Covid and influenza on the last couple of Quantum cruises.

The Titanic sank a while ago, Ill take my chances.

Passenger has updated after a few emails they have offered a free cruise with drink package.

It certainly makes sense as to why no further details were given in the letter. It makes more sense than simple overbooking, especially considering the number of rooms and the fact that if this was a regular policy/occurrence we would have been hearing about it for longer. We are going through a new wave in Australia at the moment and have always been pretty strict in the management side.

How can you compare the 2. What right minded person would get on line now and say, yes dear let's book a cruise in Israel in July next year. Hundreds of cruises sail the Carribbean in July each year, the likelihood of cancelling less than 1%.

What age?

Last year the sale only applied for dates within 1 year.

DBP 35% off on mine but still more than when it was 35% off a couple of months ago. Refresh 35% for the kids the only thing I bought. Was hoping for a bigger discount on the 3 night dining.

The big question is, do we think this is it or are there still things to add.

Hopefully not everyone feels they need to buy in the first hour. They're not Taylor Swift tickets

It's always a guess for me here in Australia working out when it starts.

A TA friend of mine says Black Friday sales begin on the 9th. Maybe that's why they are bigger, just more days.
