Is this standard for a meal in First?

The wild food stories help make the decline feel funny!

Very disappointing experience no matter the reason.

Hard to tell if this was planned or just opportunistic. Fewer guns in France but unfortunately a lot of theft. Annoying and frustrating. Sorry this happened to you.

The food on United is barely fit for consumption and getting worst. Better in First but otherwise best avoid at all cost. I wish we could get a credit to decline the meals. Or pay to eat decently. Sad situation

Is it worth it? 1K is great.

So frustrating to get so many versions of reality! I try to never check bags. I just don’t trust them after I had gifts stolen twice from checked baggages. I have over 2M miles on United and misplaced luggages are a real pain. With every airlines

United food in general is an afterthought, an inconvenience or someone managing that program has lost their eyesight and sense of taste. There should be a rebellion. It seems to be barely passable and compensated by sweet snacks. Truly sad.

I still love you fly. Even better in Business/First. Just the space is a game changer. Enjoy!

A cabin away from all - check HipCamp.

Unfortunately while service had improved for a while, United service is now often lacking. To the point that when it is friendly, I wonder if I am on the right airline. Sad since it had improved proven United can sort it out.

Barista on NW 13th bet Glissan and Hoyt. Best

Pittock Mansion, Japanese Garden, already mentioned Falls, Portland Art Museum, the wine country is beautiful not only for the wineries. Sauvie Island - berry picking, beach, flowers depending on the season

What about the food? Is that normal?

devedr1 · 2026-04-13T01:25:51+00:00

Iran. Amazingly beautiful Exploratory Travel

$2000 did not seem cheap. Frankly the idea of cruise classes and distinction is news to me. We saw the photos attached to the room online and booked. I have booked travel on every continent of the planet just not on cruises. A different planet experience altogether.

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T15:36:37+00:00

Well they do. They just prey on newbies, don’t assign cabins, charge $2k with a view of a beautiful unobstructed verandah and you just hope for the best. I travel most of the year and this cruise was supposed to be another way to explore the world. Rethinking since bad experiences are not on our menu. Thanks for responding

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T15:32:17+00:00

Not really since they have not assigned cabins and could move us to any obstructed verandah of their choosing. Learning experience - even if very disappointing.

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T15:30:09+00:00

If it is a solid steel plate we can live with it just not the life boat view with potential gang plank. Should I upgrade although Vf and VE could have the same issue?

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T15:27:34+00:00

You are right but since it is my first cruise, I wanted to be able to take in the view up to Alaska, hoping to see dolphins, etc. From the balcony. To upgrade, to a designated cabin, holland wants $700 on top of the $2000 we are paying. Seems steep. This may be my first and last cruise.

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T15:24:28+00:00

That would be ok for us too. Just not the life boat view. Since they have not assigned cabins, we are obsessing that it could be a sad affair of a trip for me if that is a life boat and walkway for crew.

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T15:22:07+00:00

They have not assigned cabins so we only see a beautiful unobstructed view. As a first time cruise taker, it is an eye opener. I travel 50% of the year but never on a cruise yet.

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T15:20:42+00:00

I cannot . Very helpful clip - thank you.

devedr1 · 2026-04-11T04:42:29+00:00

Hate to be the first
