You can manually change the time manually - Select Date and Time Turn off Automatic Time Change Click the time zone Bottom underneath calendar click the time and you can manually change. I usually have to do it by Time Zones as for some strange reason on a FitBit it will not update time unless you use a time zone. For a Trans Atlantic Here's the Time Zones I use from San Francisco Rome +9 London +8 Ponta Delgada +7 Praia +6 Nuuk +5 Hamilton +4 New York +3 Sometimes the times Daylight Savings can mess it up

LOL ---- my favorites are the ones with out the Meringue but I will definitely eat them with the topping.

I checked into our Solstice December 11 cruise on Wednesday (45 days out). Absolutely no problems. Some on our Roll Call were having trouble earlier today with the screen - ChekIn has Checked Out. I checked again and able to access both by web or app.

I often use a Travel Router like TP-Link AC750. Since there are lack of power outlets I power it using a power cell.

I've been on 5 consecutive cruises since ships first started sailing again and never been asked or even been suggested in writing to move anything off our counters. We would of course do whatever was requested. Many of our stateroom attendants will will even arrange things on our bedside tables even loose coins in a decorative way. We don't have a lot on counters but do have our Bathroom shaving kits, toothbrushes etc we leave in place and in our rooms mostly just all of my electronics, chargers and connectors. I'm wondering why Reflection have different protocols than Equinox, Silhouette, Millennium and Summit.

I"v stayed on deck 11 and I think noise will be dependent on what is over the top of you cabin. Most cabins can be quiet while others close to bars, Spa Cafe and pool you might hear early morning carts moving with ice, glasses and dishes. Also sometime in the evening areas they move chairs for steam cleaning. Also - Sometimes in the afternoon or evening you may hear noise from the bands playing loudly at the pool, along with line dancing etc Also remember the Upper Suites are on Deck 11 also and all that I've been in are very quiet as there are rooms above. Anything aft of 1605 - 1610 should be quiet as there are cabins over

No. They do have the time on your phone and you can program your phone for a wakeup call

I have the full 15 day rotation published on a blog https://cruzinjim.blogspot.com/2022/03/luminae-dinner-menus.html

I think the driver has to show some type of paper identifying him as a Ride Share driver and If I recall we had to flash our Passport from the back seat

Theoretically it is possible but if you order more than one drink in a certain amount of time it alerts the bartender and also may be blocked out. Also your picture pops up on the cash register when you present your card. I personally don't think it is appropriate to try to cheat and abuse the package. A possible alternative might be to order her drink between the CC free drinking hours if a qualifying CC member.

I see those yummy Lemon Tarts top shelf right corner.

I agree... I absolutely hate the Penthouse. It took me 10,000 steps just trying to get my suitcases unpacked. I keep forgetting which walk in closet I put something. 🥸

I've never needed anything to get into the port except maybe an ID that we flashed. The transit pass allows you to get through the front door of the terminal and then when you show it they will direct you to a special desk for in-transit. Port Everglads is pretty easy from my experience but some non-Florida ports have been a challenge. No one knew what an in-transit pass was and kept trying to send us through the regular checkin.

Same for me. Last night I checked and was able to bid on two cruses but never received any invitations. The cruises are as much as 45 days about which really surprised me. The ships are only about 65% sold which may be the reason. Suites are fully booked but lots of opportunity for most other classes

One other thing. If yo wish to see other ships and/or sailings besides your reservation. At the very bottom under all your reservation there is a selection to add a reservation and another for "See Ships We Support" I use this often if I want to see activities and figure out the Chic nights

At least in suites you have a show shine bag in you closet with the clothing bags. YOu just hang them on your door at night and your butler returns them the next morning. I'm pretty sure the stateroom attendants would handle shoes in other class.

You really don't need to do Checkin for the second cruise but I usually do as it speeds up the B2B process by about 15 seconds. It also came in hand once when we did a B2B Celebrity tour and forgot our transit pass. We just used the Express Pass to get past the front door. As others said you will get an invitation to the B2B meeting along with instructions and transit pass. If the same room you don't have to do anything with room. If a different room you will need to pack up things in drawers and the Room Attendant will move hanging items and suitecases to new room. You can either go ashore anytime prior to final call and tour on your own. You will use your Transit Pass and be processed with new card at the terminal at the B2B desk. You will not be able to re-board the ship until general boarding begins around 11:00 On B2B day you will be instructed to meet other B2B's in a Lounge like the Sky Lounge at 8:30-9:00. Once they zero out the ship they will either process B2B's either on the ship if immigration is on the ship or will take you ashore if immigration is in the terminal. You will clear immigration and then be issued your new SeaPass. Once all the B2B's are processed (about 20-30 minutes) you will be escorted aboard and have free access of the ship until general boarding begins around 11.

I hope it works for you.

It could... if you drank enough of the rum. 🤪

I've never seen one posted. I'm sure if you have a large group of members traveling you could probably ask to use a room and announce it on the community bulletin board.

I've really been enjoying the review and enlightening me about Cunard. The idea of taking Cunard back from Europe instead of flying is becoming more attractive with the spiraling cost of First Class transcontinental air fares. I thought about it last year but our stay in Europe didn't match up with a sailing.

Zenith status was a reason not to sail other lines. Originally it included Retreat Access regardless of class sailed, Free Internet, Premium Drink Package and Free Unlimited Laundry has been diluted by having most of it standard in the suite pricing. They also took away the Retreat Access if not in a suite. It was a good privileged when you could book without perks. We always sail in suites no longer much of a perk. About all you get now is usually a luncheon with Senior Staff and/or Captain.

Ahh... I thought it was the content of all your suit cases. LOL

Another quiet location is on Sport Deck forward of the outdoor movie area.

In my opinion one of the best locations is on Deck 4 Port (non-smoking side). Generally very quiet and very few people -
