My husband and I are sailing Celebrity transatlantic October 22. Bahamas port - we have excursion booked for sightseeing and beach (van/baha mar/Sandy port beach). I’m wondering if a change to Pearl Island (narrated cruise to island - beach day with lunch included) might be better?? Thoughts on which is better? *note we were on a different RC cruise in January and went to Blue Lagoon and have also been to Atlantis - we want something different

My husband and I are sailing out of Southampton to Fort Lauderdale in October. We fly into Heathrow 2 days before the cruise so we need transportation to hotel in London, and also transportation from London to Southampton on day of cruise. My questions are: What are some hotel options (moderate pricing) with ease to transportation as well as sightseeing. What should we use from Heathrow to Hotel and from Hotel to Southampton? Thank you in advance

Have a Celebrity cruise booked for Oct 2023 and we purchased their Cruise care with the thought we would add flights through the cruise line later. (Assuming the flight would also be covered as well??) Now I’m questioning whether I should purchase the flights through them. If we go on our own would it make more sense to buy one outside policy that covers everything or keep the Cruise care and a separate one for the flights? We never purchase for medical - all set there….for now.

I posted earlier on this page about 2 way transatlantic and our schedule/plans/preference has changed and it looks like it will be one way. Because of our preference of flying from US to Europe first, then sailing back it looks like Fall is the most typical. Our experience with cruising has been mostly the Caribbean with one Alaska - Princess and Royal Caribbean so far (only 5 cruises under our belt so far, but retirement promises much more). With all that in mind here are my questions: 1 - Is October/November rough(er) - I know to expect more movement on the transatlantic than what we have had on our past sailing, and we don't get seasick typically, but wondered what the difference would be. 2 - Queen Mary 2 - I like that these are through the summer months, however I wonder if they would have enough to do. We enjoy the many activities of the ships we have been on - we enjoy interactive activities. Also, with the more formal dress code, how is the overall clientele? We are more comfortable with modest/casual, with a splash of formality here and there. 3 - We see many from Southampton, UK, but are there others that end up in either Boston or New York? Thank you in advance for any help.

In trying to stay away from flying if possible...... Are there 2 way cruises from US to Europe or does it make more sense to book 2 separate cruises? Also - any cruise options where sea days are less than 5 days at a time - more broken up or is it better to have more cruise days??? Just trying to get options for down the road.

I have looked at cruises and it looks like summer is not really an option in most cases. I like an itinerary that includes iceland and/or ireland and they seem to be in March/April..... Weather is still a bit chilly at that time. Thoughts or suggestions?
