Thank you for the reply. Sounds good to me.

Any issues getting a taxi, Lyft or Uber at 4:30 am on a Tuesday morning from Margaritaville Hollywood Beach Resort to the FLL airport? Thank you.

I would call Celebrity and get the matter resolved. Sometimes the reservation gets locked, and nothing happens until someone unlocks it. A TA cannot do anything until it transfers.

I agree this information would seem to be wrong but who knows with Celebrity Cruises.

In the past, I was able to transfer a reservation over to a travel agent even after making final payment. That is not the case anymore. Per the Celebrity web page to transfer the reservation: Bookings originally booked through our direct channels (ie; Web, Onboard, Consumer Outreach) may only be transferred to a Travel Agent up until 30 days from creation if the request is made outside of Final Payment period and the booking is not paid in full. Just something to be aware of when making your reservations.

I had placed 2 reservations on a courtesy hold, received email confirmation with correct pricing PDF file. I went into my account and then added my street address and the second person's name and Captain Club's number. I then pulled up the reservation again to make sure the changes were present. The price of both cruises went from the correct price around $800 to over $2,300. I called Celebrity and after a very long discussion, the agent stated that ANY changes, even adding a person's name, will reprice the cruise and the price will change. In this case, my promo was dropped. She was able to add the promo back on but also stated Celebrity does not offer this promo anymore. I stated to her that adding a person's name, address and Captain's Club number should not affect the pricing. She stated it does. Upon talking to a different agent, they stated the same thing. Interesting, as I went back on the Celebrity website and was able to price the same cruise and got the same promo.

Purell Prime Defense, 85% alcohol, is the hand sanitizer. You can get a 4 oz bottle at CVS or sometimes Walgreens for around $5 to $6. I had no problem finding them in those drug stores. Amazon had a 4 pack of 12 oz bottle for $33! Do not need that much so went the route of the drug stores. The hand sanitizer does smell like alcohol but using it should cut down on the noro virus.

Several upcoming Princess cruises in May 2023 are completely sold out. So, YES, it is likely the months you want will be sold out. The only way to really find out is to book a cruise and see what is available.

I would recommend Club Quarters hotel as it is in the business district and a great hotel. https://clubquartershotels.com/

The sauna and locker room is not the place to make "new friends". The last Carnival ship I was on, several guys got busted, by security, for doing things that were not considered appropriate in the sauna. One guy kept on putting the moves on one of the entertainment staff and the staff member almost lost his job. If it was not for me, the entertainment staff would have been booted off the ship. However, the staff member never did anything wrong as he never did make any moves or do anything out of line. Once I heard what the staff member was accused of, by the guy that made the inappropriate moves, I made sure security knew what really took place. The entertainer was able to keep his job and the other guy was not allowed in the gym, spa or locker room after that. Sorry but the gym and sauna is not a bathhouse. Just my advice and opinion.

Try using a PC and go to this website as that sometimes makes a difference: https://oceanready-personalinfo-ui.prod.ocean.com/ It is the PC version of OceanReady.

One work around is to log in to the web app as it works a lot better. Here is the link: https://oceanready-personalinfo-ui.prod.ocean.com/ That might make things a bit easier.

What is the issue with the smaller 6 passenger boats?

Yes, you will need a prescription to buy CIPRO at PV Walmart.

If you want a drink with your lunch and have not been to your room, you can use your express pass if needed.

Yes, they did enforce the arrival time on my recent Panorama cruise. If you arrive earlier or later than your time, you will be placed in a separate line. People from that line are intermingled with the people that arrive at their assigned line. Both lines moves pretty quickly. Yes, this does speed the process up quite a bit.

John Wayne Airport does have jetways. You can look at an aerial picture and see them. Long Beach airport does not.

The best or the cheapest? If talking the cheapest then Uber is the way to go. The best probably taxi.

Just be aware that the airport in Long Beach does not have jetways. You board and deplane via a ramp or stairs. Other than that, I would recommend Long Beach over LAX as so much easier to get a Lyft or Uber to any place you need to go.

I would call guest services and ask them how the cruise line handle the situation. He may have issues if all of his legal documentation has not been legally changed. As far as the 2 cruise lines go and for what he wants to do, I would say go on the Carnival Panorama as that would be a younger crowd and more to do. Ziplining in Puerto Vallarta would be the best port this as well.

Just got the MoveUp offer today for the October 15 Solstice Mexican sailing.

There will not be a problem at all. Board at the earlier time.

But neither of these are like Nachi Cocom of Cozumel! The poster will be disappointed if he were to go there as they asked a specific question and these places go not even come close to what they asked about.
