Correct Joanna, it's the same wine in every bar.

The new Staff Captain, Felice Patruno, is a real delight. He came from Carnival and is very visible and outgoing like John McNeill. He's on the Mariner to get used to Regent and then will go to the Navigator to split the Captain duties with McNeill. He really likes the Regent style and is glad to be away from the younger set with the "party party" atmosphere.

The staff says that the Company doesn't tell them in advance how many guests to expect on upcoming segments but they are expecting fewer than 300 for Koala - perhaps as few as 250. Tough for the company but great for the guests. Shouldn't be any problem getting into Prime 7.
