Unlike most, we couldn't care less about the dining reservations for the specialty restaurants. However, we do care a lot about the excursions. In general, we are not interested in finding private excursions to substitute for Regent-provided excursions. I'm just saying that I'm not willing to gamble at Regent prices that I will be able to book excursions onboard that I am not able to book in advance. Regent added an important feature to provide an all-inclusive experience, and now conditions are being placed on that feature. Furthermore, on a cruise such as WINES, there is a notable supplemental charge for many of the excursions that we have selected.
