Would like info on the Glory ships Spa. Would like to price sheet and to know if I can schedule ahead (before cruise) such services. I understand that "At Sea" days can become sold out and I don't want to miss the opportunity. I am wanting to schedule for wife and two teen daughters as a surprise.....

I hope your wife and daughter are not members of cruise chat lol. The Glory is a beautiful ship, a color theme. I really liked it and my wife had a SPA event of some kind and you are right that Sea Days do fill fast. However, if you make it your priority to do early you should not have a problem. I think you can even call from your cabin. Send your wife and daughters to ask the Matre D' which way your dinner table faces East or West , that will take a long time and then you call the SPA right after the boat drill. Good Luck

Hey, we're on the Glory leaving on the same day. See you onboard!

Here you can find a Glory Spa price list that was posted in Sept 06 so it's probably still fairly accurate:

5String,
I have to ask since some of us are dying to know--is the name a reference to the fact you are a finger pickin' banjo player?

Well, I try. Been at it about 3 years or so. I love to hear a good banjo. It's a real challenge, that's for sure.

I too enjoy a great spa, I will say that both times the wife and I tried it onboard a ship I was pitched so many thing to buy that the whole thing was not relaxing. Even during a massage I was asked to buy the oils being used and so on. I don't know if this is the norm, some others might chime in with their experiences, but I gave it another shot and the same thing happen...

Oh that is disappointing. That really ruins a good massage! I too plan on utilizing the spa. I think I'll fake sleeping if they start!

Unfortunately the pitching is part of the deal I fear. My wife was pitched and she caught it to the tune of about an extra $100. The stuff is no better than what you can get at home and cheaper. Try the sleeping trick. Might work. As for me I like to use the Steam room and Sauna for free, this does it for me on a ship. I get massage at home for half the price and without the selling.

We did the couples massage last year on the Glory. They tried to pitch us after it was over and I just said we weren't interested. That was the end of it. No pressure.
