Well, after a pleasant flight and an easy transit through Barcelona airport, and transfer to the ship.
We arrived at Barcelona cruise terminal.
In my opinion it's one of the best to sail from, and this was no exception.
From arriving at the terminal to getting on the ship took 15 mins tops.
So it was off to the Park Café for a bite to eat, then a snooze in the cabin till the muster drill, after which Maz and Sue went upstairs to a pinnacle do and Sheila and I went to the diamond lounge.
As this is the inaugural transatlantic cruise for this ship, there are hundreds of diamond and above members.
In fact there are 180 pinnacles, over 800 diamond plus members and over 1500 diamond members.
So you can imagine how busy the lounges are. In fact for the pinnacles the have opened Dazzles bar as an overflow, and the three lounges in the entertainment area on deck 4 are being used for the diamond and diamond plus members.もっと詳しく

Pinnacle Privileges

We have had a pleasant surprise on board, as our pinnacle privileges have kicked in straight away.
We don't actually turn pinnacle till Wednesday and even then the benefits shouldn't kick in till next cruise, but, the loyalty ambassador has obviously put ours on straight away.
So we have free Internet for the cruise, and have also been invited to the pinnacle only free tour of Palma de Majorca.... Result.もっと詳しく

Well the free tour of Palma, turned out to be a visit to a Flamenco show, then a visit to Bellver Castle for a photo opportunity.
The flamenco show was brilliant, well I thought it was, some of the others thought it was to long.
As well as the show we got some tapas and a jug of sangria. To me at least it was a nice way to spend an hour or so, especially as it was gratis.
Then again I personally love any kind of dance, from breakdancing to ballet, so I'm probably not the one to ask if I enjoyed it.
After the show, we drove up to Bellver Castle, as I said for a photo opportunity. I didn't get off the coach to take some photos, as I was here on my own, only a few weeks ago, when I walked it from the ship!!
The exclamation marks are not really for the walk from the ship, which was quite pleasant, but for the fifty million steps up to the castle itself.
I may be slightly exaggerating saying 50 million, it's probably only 49 million.... Lol.
I did have to stop about 4 times for a breather on the way up, but it was worth it.
Anyway back to yesterday.
The tour was great, and much appreciated.
I must say that I am pleased with the way the ship's management is handling the massive amount of C&A members that are on board, especially in the lounges during the evening drinks time.
All the overflow lounges are packed to the gills, but the service is excellent, so as long as you can get a seat 💺 there are no problems.もっと詳しく

Pinnacle party to remember!
2016年10月29日, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C
What can I say. I knew Sue was arranging a small party to celebrate 🎉 Sheila and I reaching pinnacle status. I've been to many of the others that she's arranged, and they've all been brilliant.
But seriously, this time she surpassed all of them.
Not only did we have most of our cruise friends there, but she got Karl and the boys from Beatles Celebration to do a spot for us. It was brilliant.
She also made me a huge pinnacle badge, complete with diamontes, which I promised to wear in the evening in the pinnacle lounge.
Well I did as I said I would, but Sylvain and Karl had other ideas, and decided that we should go to the other lounges on the ship as well.
Obviously alcohol played no part in this idea 💡!
Lol.
I felt like a bride on her hen night but instead of a big letter L around my neck I had the pinnacle badge.
We even walked down the promenade on deck 5, and the amount of people who stopped me for a photo was unbelievable.
Anyway I had a brilliant laugh with Karl and Sylvain.
And a brilliant day all told.もっと詳しく

Pinnacle Presentation
2016年11月1日, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ 🌙 7 °C
Last night we were invited to a special dinner for all the pinnacle guests.
At the meal Sheila and I were presented with a bottle of champagne, a commemorative certificate in a beautiful silver frame and our stratum.
To be honest, before we went to the meal, I didn’t think much about us reaching pinnacle status, after all it's just a loyalty program.
But the amount of strangers who congratulated me and shook my hand saying "welcome to the club" amazed me.
And to be quite honest touched me.
I suppose really it is quite an exclusive club, as the Crown and Anchor society has about 6 million members, of which only about 1500 are pinnacle members.もっと詳しく

Well that was amazing and quite a privilege.
The 194 pinnacle members where invited to go out on the helipad for an historical photo of the largest amount of pinnacles on board one ship.
And the icing on the cake was we got to see the meeting of the 3 Oasis class ships, together for the first time ever, up close and personal.
The temperature was in the 80s! But it was well worth putting up with it to be part of this historic event.もっと詳しく
