Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Is the Eclipse scheduled for Day Dock next year. I see a gap between her arrival in Southampton and Amsterdam of about three weeks. Looks like a Dry Dock. What will they be doing to her?
  2. Can a Carnival Gift Card be used on any line that Carnival own. ie Cunard
  3. Where do you return rental cars at the Port. Plan on renting a car from Tampa and returning at Canaveral. Probably Budget
  4. Does Hyatt Place charge to park overnight or charge a resort fee or any other junk fees?
  5. Over the course of 4 bookings we have saved around 1400.00. Almost enough for another Cruise.
  6. I had to cancel booking that was paid with GC. Got 100% of my money back from Insurance in about 5 weeks. Do not use the cards to pay port fees and taxes. The GC are just like cash and should be protected as such. Port fees and taxes will be refunded by Celebrity, All of the TC floating around have no revision dates on them so you know which one is the most current. Once you understand the process easy to you. To much of a savings to pass up.
  7. I have used gift cards for four bookings in a row, and confirmed each time by calling that their is no limit on the dollar amount you can use. There was a change in T/C. I just booked last week and called before booking and confirmed there is no limit. I used three 500 and one 250 dollar card no problem. Like I said before be careful you are getting accurate information. I one had a correct invoice two times and adjusted invoice two times. The gift card dept needs to clean up their act and publish the t/c for all to see.
  8. Never sailed Atlas before and today in the mail got a brochure offering second passenger free and other benefits. I know nothing at all about Atlas, but is this legit? I know there must be a catch but I can't find it. Your thoughts? Looks like something I might be interested in. These type voyages have always been outside of my budget and would certainly give it hard look if more affordable. Thanks for your help.
  9. The T/C have changed. Gift cards amounts are unlimited. No longer limited to 1000.00 per cabin. We use them all the time. but be very careful. ALWAYS call gift card dept at 888-837-5676. I even get conflicting information depending on who I speak to. I have been told that port fees and taxes are non-refundable in case of cancelation. I found this out the hard way. They also do something strange when invoice is totaled. I still do not understand why the fare is discounted I believe by 100.00 per certificate. When totaled the amount does not match the actual cruise fare. This presented me with some challenges when I recently had to cancel. In addition your agent will loose commission on the sale, My agent was not happy. I would advise to always have Travel Insurance to ensure you get all of what you paid the voyage. Check with GC dept before ever purchasing and go over any changes that may have been make to the T/C. I wrote a letter to them and strongly suggested that the T/C be posted on the Web just as Princess does. Do not count on your agent knowing the T/C. I think my agent is now up to speed and how to use after I have booked my last four voyages with her. I have also heard recently that Celebrity is working on way to refund GC back to your certificate and also use them for onboard purchases. This would solve a lot of issues. We save a bundle using them and will continue to do so. Just be careful.
  10. Can the gift certificates like you can find on AARP be used to book cabins on Cunard? if so can someone tell me where to find the terms and conditions. I have looked and not been able to find the answer to my question. thanks!
  11. We would like to really sail on the Beyond to experience the Sunset Bar. However, all the issues that seem to keep popping up are causing us to reconsider. Are there really serious issues such as creaking and cracking, and others. I have been looking forward to this trip but DW is feeling like maybe we should pass and go on to the Apex.
  12. About how long does it take for Celebrity to refund port fees and taxes when a Cruise is cancelled? It has been about close to 14 days now and no refunds as of yet.
  13. Does anyone have the email for the new President of Celebrity?
  14. Does anyone have the link with the entire Celebrity Gift Certificate program terms and conditions. I had an issue today that I had to clear up myself. My T/A was told the Certificates could not used for taxes/fees. I knew that was wrong because I had used them before. i had to call Celebrity to get it taken care of. My agent I don't think wanted to do the work. That's another story. I need a copy of the policy to pass on the my agents in the future.
