I think the question is maybe mostly used for the cruise trip insurance and also air travel thru the cruise line. Residency could also be used for maybe sales tax charged by your state or the laws that they have regarding the contract. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

It deends on when you booked your cruise and the promo perks you received. I have cruises booked in a SS where I have the perks of premium drink pack, premium wifi, gratuities, and OBC. Those were the perks when I booked the cruise. If I book a SS now it includes the perks of a premium drink pack, and premium wifi. These are perks of a promo and not amenities of a SS. No perks of OBC or gratuities are included. I will be charged the daily rate for the gratuities Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

I don’t know how they get paid but they like being there. And yes I think most guests tip them during the cruise. 125 suites at an average of $10 per suite/ cruise not bad and is probably tax free. I know they like being there because on one cruise the BT told me that it will be their last day there because a customer complained that they had to wait too long to be served and they were sad because they really liked working there. There may be more to that but I was only told their side of the story. As someone said no matter how thin you slice the ham there is always 2 sides. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

Another hotel to check out in Key West is the Mansion on the sea. It is at the end of Duval, near the ocean and has a beach Very nice place https://www.themansiononthesea.com Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

Here are a few that aren’t tourist traps. They are very popular but not known to the turkeys as they aren’t on Duval. Blue Haven Moon dog cafe Kaya restaurant Give them a google and check out the reviews. They are all about 5 star rating based on the reviews. May have wait to get seated depending on the time. if you want a really nice place to stay check out Santa Maria Suites. It is at about one block from the end of Duval that is near the most southern marker . Very luxurious and not cheap but still cheaper than a suite/day pp on Celebrity and with 2 to the room you will still have a lot of money left to spend on more food and drinks than you could indulge in. Plus you could buy liquor at a store to have in your room or at the pool or beach. Liquor prices in Fl are very cheap at Total Wine or Costco The hotel also has a manger’s reception.

First Flight was formerly own by Kelly McGillis and called Kelly’s. I guess she sold it and it was renamed First Flight. It was always a must stop for the craft beers and HH. It is a little out of the way of the main drag and not really a tourist trap like Sloppy Joes, Green Parrot, and Hog’s Breath. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

The question was about the waitstaff in Luminae and you mentioned the Sommelier not being included. I am trying to clarify to them that the sommelier gets tips thru the drink package for the drinks you order from them. If you don’t have a drink pack the server gets that gratuity that is added on every drink you purchase. They don’t need to be tipped extra but as you suggested if you felt you got great service give them a token of appreciation at the end of the cruise or add to it on the receipt you sign. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

Indirectly it does include the gratuities to the Sommelier. In a suite you get the premium drink pack and that includes the gratuity on every drink. The person that serves you a drink gets a gratuity that is covered by the drink pack. If you don’t have the drink pack and order a drink they get the gratuity that is added on because the gratuity package doesn’t cover the gratuity on the drinks Some of the other things that aren’t covered by the gratuity package are the additional charge for drinks over the drink package limit, spa services, specialty restaurants. There are also some services/classes in the gym that they may try to sneak gratuities on or buying products in the spa area. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

How much has a Zenith member saved by booking a suite or reimbursed for a 7 day cruise with the new benefit? Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

There have been some promos where you were entered into a raffle for a free cruise and maybe some if purchased early in the cruise. I think the drawing included entries across the entire fleet during a period of a few months. They did that to avoid the big rush at the end of the cruise. I haven’t seen it lately and never seen any winner posted. I think I also got a bottle of their cheap sparkling wine one time Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

Set your phone to a city that is in the time zone that you want to change to. Your watch should change when you do that. A lot easier than waiting for it automatically because as others have mentioned that the ship will decide what time zone to use and it may not be the correct one you are in. Try it at home instead of waiting to do it on the ship. They will do this so that so the passengers will get use to the change before it is needed. EG. They are at sea the day before a port. They will change on the sea day instead of when arriving at the port because it doesn’t affect the passengers if they get up a hour late for breakfast but it could if that happened in the port.

You live near St Louis so you must know that Clydesdales can only eat the brewers spent grain from Budweiser, and drink their beer instead of water. That is what makes them so large and why they are they are used to promote the brand. 🤪🤗 Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

NO. Way over priced. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅
