Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I just booked a cat BB balcony on deck 5 and noticed the general categories of classes vs deck and it appears that deck 8 has lower categories than lower decks for the same general location. For example: Deck 7 has cat BA near the middle - Deck 8 for the same location has cat BB a lower price Decks 5, 6, 7 aft have cat BD - Deck 8 aft for the same location has cat BE at a lower price Does anyone know why deck 8 have generally lower categories of cabins than lower decks. Generally higher decks have higher categories and costs than lower decks. Is it because of noise of the open deck 9 or overhang of deck 9 or what. There are openings on deck 8 for my cruise that I can transfer to at lower cost but do not want to if there is a problem. Thanks for any advice on this, Rick
  2. A cheaper cost is 1 device vs 4 devices which I do not use. Does anyone know if 1 device includes your original tablet/phone or computer and the internet cafe computer so you can print boarding passes and other items.
  3. You were on a cruise a year ago. We were on a similar cruise in June 2022 and the rules you stated were no longer in effect. This cruise did not end in Canada but Boston. All who had Covid just got off the ship and went home by flight or however means they had planned.
  4. Per my original post regarding having to call my TA to ask for my quarantine refund, I got an email back from them with my refund amount. I could not calculate what it was based on because I have had several upgrades from the original cruise booked for 2020 and 2021 which were both cancelled plus I had Celebrity air booked. Thus the calculation was complex but it was based on 2 people being quarantined for the full 10 days plus other unknown amounts but the amount was higher than I thought. The TA said X would send my refund within 45 days.
  5. I called Celebrity today and they said I have to call my Travel Agent to get the Quarantine refund even though the letter X gave me said they would send out the refund in 7 - 14 days. What a waste of time - I could have called my TA on day 2 and got the process going. All they would have had to do is put in the letter to contact your TA to get the refund process going. Maybe this method allows X to keep your money longer.
  6. My wife and I were quarantined on a recent Celebrity cruise for 5 days because of Covid and was told we would get a prorated cruise refund in 7 to 14 days after our cruise ended which was Aug 31. It has now been 18 days with nothing received yet. What has been the experience of others in the same situation? How long did it take to get your refund? Thank, Rick
  7. My and my wife self reported minor cold symptoms to medical and both tested Covid positive 6 days before the end of the cruise. We have quarantined for 4 days and will get our 5 day test tomorrow on 8-30-22. If we test negative all will be ok and we can leave the ship with no problems. If we test positive, Celebrity says we can still leave the ship since they say the CDC says a 5 day quarantine with no symptoms (which we have) is still OK to travel on airlines in the US. Has anyone encountered this situation before and do you think Celebrity owes passengers who get Covid on their ship anything such as a covid quarantine hotel and transportation to it if they have symptoms. Thus if we all of a sudden come down with some severe symptoms we don't feel it is right to fly home on 8-31. Should Celebrity help us with anything? Airlines no longer require preflight Covid testing but we are not going to get on a plane with severe and obvious Covid symptoms. Any links to protocols or regulations would be appreciated.
  8. The main question I have is we test positive after we get off the ship how do you find a hotel for 10 days? Do the authorities in Canada he,p us with that or do we have to search for a hotel using a service such as Expedia, etc. I have trip medical insurance that will pay for a good amount, but how do I find a last minute hotel? Rick
  9. I need to schedule my departing covid test when I get off my Royal Princess cruise in Vancouver in late June and need to know when is the latest I can get off and how long is the line for customs and immigration? Anyone who has recently done this I would appreciate any advice. I know every cruise is different but approximate times would be appreciated Thanks

  11. I will be on a Windstar cruise stopping in Portland, Oregon in May and need to know where the ship would dock. There is no information when searching the internet and Winstar doesn't know per a phone call and so far has not got back to me about the exact location via a email request. The location may or may not be different from where river boats dock If any one has cruised there before or who lives there who has any information, it would be appreciated. Rick
