Well, we've made deposits on 2 b2b Oceania cruises for 2010....Bangkok-Beijing-Hong Kong in March and Amsterdam-Dover-Copenhagen in July. We decided on the Asia cruises after deciding/realizing we had very little probability of clearing the waitlist for the Mariner cruise 17 October and actually, the March date might be better for us anyway.

I'm very excited about the itineraries and pleased with the fares, even if there's no complimentary wine at dinner and we'll have to pay for internet use.

We've received wonderful customer service and expert care from Susan W and Lisa while Susan was away. Many thanks!
