Carry on Luggage for embarkation day
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to jwmiller5's topic in Celebrity Cruises
So they *are* available for drop off - just not to stay in. To me, "not available" means you can't go into the stateroom hallways at all until they are cleared. -
Is Walk off with luggage available on Celebrity
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to buzzandjulie's topic in Celebrity Cruises
The only ones that drive me crazy are the ones who intentionally book a flight earlier than the cruiseline says to and then try to demand special skip to the front of the line treatment. Sorry. You chose to be stupid and not listen to what the safest earliest time is. That's not my fault. (I feel the same when people intentionally get to the airport late and then want to skip up to the front of the security line. You made your choices. It's not my fault they were bad ones.) -
Gotcha. Thanks. Never heard of that. Just the by the glass sommelier's bin that DCL does.
-
Do you mean the random glass of a category - red, white, sparkling - from a bottle that's been opened already for a fixed price and you get what you get? I don't know if X does it. I know Disney does and calls it the sommelier's bin.

Oh, sorry! I need more coffee this morning! So sorry!!

I thought you did get Retreat access?

It says the half only accommodates 2 max. So if you have 4 you'd need the full cabana. Usually they have shown up in advance - but I'm not sure what section they are under.

Have you been on a xmas / nye cruise?
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to kk20's topic in Celebrity Cruises
And that is not even traditional for everyone - even in America. -
In Feb 2020, I was on the Edge and Captain Kate made a day before call to skip Costa Maya due to a bus driver (and maybe taxi drivers too?) strike that was causing unrest. The Reflection had docked the day before we were scheduled to and there was so much disruption reported she made the call to head to Cozumel that evening so we were docked overnight. I agree with checking with the tour operator if the no refund applies even if the ship cannot dock - that is no fault of your own, and I'd steer clear of any operator who would hold you responsible for that and not refund your money.

Non Alcoholic Wine or Beer?
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to Sheltielover73's topic in Celebrity Cruises
I'd imagine you could also bring a couple of bottles of non-alcoholic wine each with you when you board just to ensure there is something she knows she likes - and in case of supply chain issues you'd know you have at least 4 bottles. -
No masks required for crew
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to TrueCruiseaholic's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Perfect example. I have hip issues from a childhood injury - I can walk on flat surfaces fine and would appear "clearly" healthy there, but when it is acting up, if I'm doing stairs it is painful and obvious. But not on stairs? You'd never know to watch me walk. -
No masks required for crew
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to TrueCruiseaholic's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Just as a reminder, not all disabilities or things that cause issues with stairs are visible and require something like walkers, canes, or chairs. You can't tell just by looking at someone that they are "clearly fit and well". -
No masks required for crew
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to TrueCruiseaholic's topic in Celebrity Cruises
So just stay home and isolated. We all have to make choices and decisions. All of life is a risk - you can get hit by a runaway car while you're walking down the sidewalk, or you can do everything right health-wise and still end up with cancer. Each person can decide what they are comfortable with in all situations. If someone is so freaked out that even removing their mask to eat or drink is an issue, cruising is not for them right now. If ever. Unless they're renting a private yacht where they supply the crew from people they know are 100% virus free. Then cruising would be ok I guess. -
Good place to read a book on the Beyond?
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to zitsky's topic in Celebrity Cruises
When I was on Edge, in the upper area of Eden there were some big round comfy lounge things - perfect for curling up with a book and reading. And far enough away from most of the action I was never bothered by things going on in the lower section. -

WrittenOnYourHeart replied to TrueCruiseaholic's topic in Celebrity Cruises
So you protect yourself from the virus but you'll dehydrate and starve? I'm not anti-mask...just trying to understand how you're supposed to exist without eating or drinking. -
Starlink on Beyond, a disappointment.
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to Dk-cruiser's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Seems we have a Musk shill... Or maybe Musk himself? LOL. -
Behind the Scenes Tour - Wardrobe Requirements
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to PinkSandGirl's topic in Celebrity Cruises
I think I wore leggings on my tour on the Edge. -
I don't find it fun or relaxing to get so drunk I don't have a clue where I'm supposed to go. I don't mind drinking a bit, but not to the point of "Where am I?" or going to the wrong room/not knowing what deck to get off on. Maybe that's just me though.
-
I didn't do anything on Celebrity because it doesn't seem like that kind of line. And I'm an adult capable of remembering where my room is, so I don't have to have anything to help me find it. I don't mind a magnet or two if people insist, but the full out door thing like a lot do on Disney (I love Disney, but the doors get ridiculous) where it feels like people still think they're in college and need to have decorations on everything? Just, no.

If early dining is sold out at booking...
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to NJRonbo's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Yeah, you can't make reservations once on board. But you can before the cruise using your planner. And it's not a "pain in the butt" - unless maybe you're trying to make them for a popular time too close to the cruise when people have already made theirs. -
If early dining is sold out at booking...
WrittenOnYourHeart replied to NJRonbo's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Very curious about what they mean by that. Anytime is an option just like Early or Late - they just click the box. No more of a pain in the butt than booking the cruise. As far as making reservations, I've had no issues doing that. Yes, it used to be that you had to do a day, check out; do a day, check out; and so forth - so a little time consuming, but not horrible. Lately, though, I've been able to go in and book all the days before checking out so it's a lot easier.
