  1. FCC is only available Onboard and is not transferable.Most Cruises carry a deposit of $530 and upwards depending on Length and Price of Room,
  2. Norway is expensive on a whole. So anything you do or purchase will reflect that. we are going in Sept. 2025 and are looking at excursions, but just like others mentioned even private ones are pricey. In Flam you can buy the Train tickets for alot less then thru Celebrity. In Geiranger the Kayak tours are less but not by much. I suggest you Google all the Ports and see what is offered at what price, thats what I am doing,and if Celebrity is having a sale I know I know if its good or not.
  3. you will receive Email telling you its time to Check In, go to PC or APP and sign in, pick your time slot.
  4. There is an electric blind that can come down, you can control how far you want it closed.
  5. We loved our IV Veranda, makes room bigger, lay in bed watch world go by, no curtain in the way.They use hidden blinds.Way more privacy. We rarely used Balconies, my husband now wants theses cabins only.
  6. Go to Guest services or to Cosmopolitan Restaurant floor , there was a Station to choose your Times and Restaurants, I had a list of Restaurants, dates and times we preferred and it was no problem getting what we wanted. No need to go to each Restaurant you desire. I went there right after dropping bags at Room.
  7. Does this Jones Act Rule apply to all Nationalities or only to USCitizens/Residents?
  8. We were on Expedition in Jan,2022, I had booked this in Feb. 2020, we chose Expedition for Price at the time. Due to Covid still being a factor, there were only 34 ppl onboard. We quickly bonded with 3 other couples, less people onboard means quicker loading and unloading of Zodiacs,therefor getting to the landing spots quicker. There was at that time not really any entertainment onboard.Don't know about that now.
  9. If you rent a car opt for the NAVI (GPS) option. German Autobahn can be crazy especially on a Sunday, lots of daytrippers. One accident and the 1,5 hr drive can turn into 3-4 hrs. Another option is to look into taking a train to Kiel. www.bahn.de, choose your language.
  10. Yes these rooms are IV Balcony, your view down will be tenderboats and deck 5, and yes you will have a bit of a blocked view to your left. I was trying to attach a pix but it would only attach upside down, sorry.
  11. If you are that concerend, don't book it. Or pick an Iceland Cruise which doesn't start in Iceland, You won't get as many stops in Iceland but you won't have to fly there.
  12. People who were on our cruise and took the Kayaking tour and others took the Nature tour were not satisfied. The Guides according to them did not know the names of the Wildlife they were seeing. We took the Panama City and Agua Clara Locks tour, 1hr at the Locks Visitor ctr, which in our opinion is tooo long.The drive to the City is long, but we enjoyed the tour of the Old City, albeit it was hot.. Drive back was also long but I think all in all it was better choice then the other tours offered.
  13. Maybe it was at Lunch , but there were upcharge items for sure. just got off last Friday.
  14. There are pay items in Eden cafe but most items are free.It is open 7:30 - 9:00 for breakfast, lunch only on Seadays. Short hours so. Get a drink at the Eden bar and sit outside it is quiet there. Don't know about the chicken Gyoza, but everything we had was delicious. They have a seafood tower. Staff very friendly.
  15. how are you getting to the Island of Murano from the Airport. Take the Tronchetta from Murano to the Stop at the/close to the Trainstation, catch a train way less money and relaxing.
  16. On Boarding day they will have Tech guys available to help you set it all up. even if there are issues during the cruise.
  17. Go For It. My husband does dress shirt and tie, but no jacket,as we are going carry on only.
  18. Hi again anyone done a Kayak and Snorkel tour in Aruba? If so which Company did you use and how was the expierience? tks
  19. We are having a long day in Aruba, my thoughts are, getting a taxi to give us a tour of Island then drop us at Arashi beach and we take the bus back to Port. Anyone done a similar experience? How much are Taxis in Aruba for a few hrs? Other plan would involve renting a car. Your thoughts please. TIA
  20. Unfortenuetly if one books a dinning pkge, one must wait to make reservations until you are onboard. It states this clearly when purchasing a pkge. I guess discount trumps favourable dinning time. I will have to see how we make out in March.
  21. you can choose Cruise only, and prepay the daily Service Charges (these go to Room attendent, Waiters and all the behind the scene workers), You can chose ALLInc. wich includes Drinks and wifi and of course Cruise AND then ADD the Service charges. with this choice there should be no extras other then what you mentioned. Should your drink be over the alloted amount there is an upcharge +20%.
  22. No double dipping on Discounts. pick the one with the best price.
