We have been cruising with Crystal for the past four years but have found their quality to be less than optimum over the past year. So we are taking our first Oceania cruise on the Nautica from Istanbul to Athens on June 20 and are very much lookingto it. We have heard everything positive from several cruise boards to which we belong with the exception (as you pointed out) of their drink prices.

I thought I would pass along some news on Oceania's dining as we found it very interesting. http://tinyurl.com/gt73v
