Dear Liz -- I am really sorry you removed your post. I managed to read it just before it was removed. I thought it was well reasoned, carefully thought out and very valid. I believe you said things that had previously only been hinted about from other reviewers. Although I have never sailed Oceania, I certainly don't think an apology would be worth anything -- you clearly paid for a product you did not get.

Please reconsider your pulling the post -- you might save other travelers from a mistake!
