So Oceania's Marina is beautiful and the crew and staff are the best., but that doesn't make up for the negatives. They advertise free air fare. Which is a chartered flight out if LAX on Tahiti Air. This flight is miserable. The plane is old, and there is no room. The personal entertainment systems don't work and then you are stuck as,there is no place to change where they might be working. Do they every check these?
To get a little water on this flight it feels like you are a prisoners begging for a small cup of water.. Never again..
The Marina has customer service and you don't feel herded. We did buy the liquor package for the two of us for the ten days which was a $1200 extra as soon as we got aboard. People buying their drinks are always signing and getting a big bill apron check out. Many people complained that the drinks were watered down or they couldn't even fill your wine glass for the $10:50 they charged plus 18% service and gratuity charge that is added.
Our room was very nice. Middle of ship, but with no veranda or concierge level so making restaurant reservations was impossible. About half way through the trip we noticed we had two peepholes in our door. When we asked about it our housekeeper said we had the handicapped room. You mean not everyone has a foldout seat in their shower? Apparently we did get a lot more room because it was the handicapped room so this worked very nicely.
