You should be able to check in for your flight the day before. Three days before your flight you can book a time slot to go through security at Schiphol airport, I have downloaded the airports app and will book a security time through the app. We have a ships transfer Rotterdam to Schiphol for our May cruise that will get us to the airport three hours before our flight. If you book a private transfer and can disembark quickly your time may be tight but doable.

I will stick to my favourite kid-free zone - the Martini Bar. 🍹🍹

I am booked in a balcony and the upper suites are on my MoveUp email offer - Royal Suite, Celebrity Suite and so on.

Thanks for the info 🙂

When do we get two hours access to the kids clubs?

Thank you both. I will likely be more tired than hungry after a 12 hour excursion. 😅

What is the Oceanview Cafe late night food like, hours 10 pm to 1 am? We have a ships shore excursion that ends at 9.30 pm and that looks to be the only food option at that time of night.

One pass purchased per cabin.... Celebrity could end up with twice as many people using the pass than they planned for 😅

it could be a male posting, ok if you swing that way. 😉

Finally caught up with all the posts. Thanks so much, very interesting and enjoyable to read.

We got this for our cruise in May when it first came out in November last year. It was far cheaper than just upgrading from the AI basic Wifi to the faster Wifi for two devices each. This pass has more benefits and is cheaper than paying for Concierge class. Edit to add - Also interested in hearing about others experiences with the pass.

This far out from your cruise you are likely to get better discounts during an occasional sale. If you buy now and see better prices later on you can cancel your original purchases then rebook. It pays to sign in to your account and check for good sales frequently as they are not always advertised. i bought a few shore excursions at 10% discount. Cancelled and rebooked during a 40% off sale. Also got a better discount on my drinks package upgrade. edit to add - same applies to specialty dining and wifi. Also if you change your mind about a shore excursion you purchased you can cancel them up to 48 hours before the day of the excursion.

Thanks for your great review. What time did you disembark? Wondering how long I can hang around for at the end of our cruise.

No need to wait. If you buy now and see it at a better price later on you can cancel then re-book at the new price. I saved hundreds upgrading to a premium drinks package back in November. Same applies to shore excursions, speciality dining and wifi.

Ok, thanks. It is disappointing and off putting when when more and more of a ships areas get closed off to general passengers. Three times in six nights is a lot. Concerned how often it will happen for my upcoming 13 night cruise.

Do they close the Sky Lounge off to other guests during the Elite happy hour?

Enjoying your trip reports thanks.

Wow, we booked our Viking river cruise for May 2024 back in April last year. Final payment was due January 2024 so only 4 months out for us.

I had my Stavanger excursion is canceled email too. My sailing is in May so at least I have plenty of time to book another excursion once the duplication no longer shows.

The sales seem to be based on particular sailings rather than where you are located. I got some good discounts in October for my May 2024 sailing when others got nothing. For this sale, nothing. Hoping for one more sale before May. It pays to keep checking as random sales can pop up at any time.

My May cruise has no discounts. Not sure how they choose which sailings get the sales.

Thanks for the review. Did you get any benefit paying so much more to be in Aqua?

Wonderful, thank you. 🙂. Enjoy the rest of your cruise!

Ahhh... the X-Pass. I purchased the Wi-fi upgrade to two devices which included the X-Pass benefits. Was 50% cheaper than buying the VIP X-Pass. Now the VIP and the upgrade pass are not available. Will the new packaged upgrades offer more? Will my X-pass be honoured?

Great pic, enjoy your cruise. Can you please report on the MDR when you can.
