We are on MSC.  I think it's Havensight.

Can anyone recommend a snorkelling excursion / company with pick-up from port?

I do not plan to buy the Drink/WIFI cruise package but I need WIFI for 2 devices.  Does the WIFI or Drink package go on Sale pre cruise like I have seen with other cruiselines (RCL, Celebrity)?  If it's rare, then the Drink/WIFI cruise package might be a better deal.

Why book All Included ?  Is it worth it since there are always drink and wifi packages on sale that I see are usually less than the All Included pricing?

Just wanted to get more opinions on All Included.  Also, I see that All Included prices vary from cruise to cruise, any suggestions on which cruises have the best All Included prices?

Jays Car rental .. they met us at the gates and we walk to a nearby parking lot to pick up the car.

Smart Wheels - very convenient - pick up / drop off is right at the port.

Eagle beach and Palm beach are busy.

If you can go further out, the beaches are quieter - Baby Beach, Malmok Beach or Arashi Beach.

Malmok Beach best for snorkeling.

All beaches are great.

Cups? If not wine glasses, how would wine steward know it’s wine. 
In addition, check your onboard account, you may see the “corkage” charge if the bottles were noted at embarkation.

Just noting that we had no issues with the wine we brought aboard and we had no "corkage" charge.

Just off Celebrity Summit and we brought wine on board.  Forget bottle opener but cabin steward brought us one to open our bottles.  We would pour our wine into our own cups (but there are cups in the stateroom) and bring it around with us even in the main dining room - no issues or questions.

FYI, sommelier would still come to our table and ask if wanted wine for dinner even though we had our cups on the table.

Just came back from ABC islands, I would say Sorobon beach would be a good choice.  Many cruisers took a cab as it's only 15 minutes from the port - we drove ourselves.  Soft sand and shallow beach - you can walk out a long way and it is still waist high.  With 2 cruises in port, it was a busy beach.

We did this a few years ago, so I don't recall if we did north or south.  I want to say south.  We saw slave huts, salt mines, past numerous areas you could snorkel and we took it all the way to spend some time at Sorobon Beach.  This is the route I would suggest.

 

Thanks for responding.  Hoping we can do both routes but we will go south route first.

The only :wine bottle packages I have seen offered in recent times has been the individual bottles that are shown in the "Gifts and Gear" section of the Cruise Planner.  Here is what is showing for our Millennium sailing next year

 

 

Thanks, do you know if we buy a wine from this list, is there a corkage fee or service charge on top of this price?

Is it ok to bring my own tumbler (with wine) into MDR?  

Just wondering if anyone recently on Summit has any update on this?

Can you buy wine bottle packages once on board and if you so, pricing please?

Thanks - it's called Seaport Wines and Spirits and opens at 8am (10am on Sunday).  Then only a 15 minute walk to terminal.  This works !!

Where can I buy wine to bring on the ship either at Logan airport or near the cruise port?

There seems to be two routes to see the island - north and south.

If we could only do one route, which one?

What are the highlights of each route?

Thanks

It was good.  Weather can be unpredicatable and we did have slightly cooler days as we went north.  It was nice to have a solarium pool.  Although the week before we arrived in Vancouver, it was 80+ but we had 70+ weather.

I've used BlueCross

Thanks

Still wondering if anyone else has used Express Shuttle Miami.

Cost is $10 per person to Miami airport or $15 per person to Fort Lauderdale airport.

Price is good.  We are no rush to get to the airport.

Anyone use Express Shuttle Miami for shared ride to airport?

Any other recommendations for cheap transportation to Miami Airport?

I've seen that a taxi could cost $50 or more.

Thanks

Hi, I plan to take the Silver way from Logan to cruise Terminal.  We have no problem walking.  Can someone confirm where to get off?  How has traffic been lately?  How much time should I allot to get to the cruise terminal so that I can arrange cruise check-in time accordingly.  Thanks

New to Celebrity ...

I can't seem to figure out how to sign up for the Power Up Points program.

Trying to get to Classic status before I sail.

Thanks
