Good news for people who wants to know a couple of secrets before booking a trip on a Luxury Ocean liner
Glen is a family friend who have served more than 2 years as Guest relations manager on 2 Lux liners operating in Carribean
Here are the golden Rules
1. Do not book before you had seen the deck plan with accomodation
2. Book on a deck in between passeger accomodation floors- disko's ;floor cleaning;machine maintenace can rudely awake you late at night -if you are too low,that is why the are cheaper.
3. Invest in a balcony apartment it is slightly more expensive R2000 more but you can have your own private sundowners, and you do not have to share all drinks,tea ,coffee inthe public areas. After a week you need a little private space
4. There are no magazines on board and if they are very expensive- old donated books are in a make shift library -better bring your own books, ship owners do not want you to read, they want to make money from you- casino is where they want you
5. do not take the daily service charge off- all crew knows it and you will feel it, taking liquor on board is a no-no; it gets confiscqted, remeber liquor on board is expensive
6. take the early seatings with restaurants bookings- crew is fresh, food is fresh and well cooked;chefs had time to prepare
7. Lastly people take too much luggage on these trips- take less
Oki Doki there we have it out of the horses mouth- lekker sail
