🤣 🤣LOL. Actually, yes. It is waterproof and came with a dry bag we bought for a tubing trip. But I couldn’t bring myself to hang my phone around my neck, even for just an hour. So I just left it behind instead. 🤣🤣

It's a nice case for travel!!! The "back door" is pretty secure. I don't have to give my cards to my husband to carry for me or worry about dropping them out of my pockets, if I have pockets.

This is the case I have, Spigen Slim Armor CS purchased on Amazon.

I don’t care for lanyards. I found a cell phone case with a sliding cover on the back that I only use on vacation. It holds two cards - usually my Sea Pass card and my id. I want to be reachable by my college student son, so I always have that with me. Very handy….

We are also visiting Iceland this summer with NCL. In Akureyri, we have booked a tour with Iceland Everywhere. In Isafjordur, we have booked with Arctic Shorex. I can't recommend them myself yet, but I am hopeful that the experiences will be good. You might find others who have already taken tours with these companies by entering the city name in the Cruise Critic boards search field. That was how I found these.

When our 19 year old agrees to go with us, we usually go with two cabins. It works out well for us. We are all more comfortable than being in a single cabin. After trying this once, we won't go back to sharing with him! We have a 7-day Caribbean cruise booked. For your reference, our options for internet are $209.93 for unlimited internet (1 device) and $279.93 for unlimited premium (1 device). There are also options for 2 devices that are less than buying two individual plans. If you book two cabins so they get internet, it's minutes, not unlimited. The cost to upgrade from minutes to unlimited is less than buying the 1 device packages for passengers 3 and 4. I hope that makes sense. The soda package for 7 days is listed as $83.58 per person ($9.95 plus 20% for 7 days). As mentioned, these are all for our 7-day cruise. The prices for our 11-day itinerary are higher.

We placed AirTags in our luggage flying from the US to Rome for a cruise last summer. My husband doubted the value until I was able to tell him on the return home there was no need for us to wait for luggage in customs before our connecting flight. Our bags showed still in Rome an hour after we departed. They were on the flight after ours.

Even something as small as changing dining time from early fixed to waitlisting anytime dining, having FBC make a change to flights, or adding a special occasion to the reservation can cause this. The first time it happened, I panicked, of course. My Celebrity cruise planner assured me all was fine, and he took care of it while I waited on the phone. Anytime since then, I have emailed him my last correct confirmation and asked him if he could take a look. He usually has it corrected in a few hours. Yes, it has happened multiple times on the same reservation! 😉

We used Stefano's RomeCabs last summer for transportation from the airport to the hotel in Rome and again a couple days later for the trip from the hotel to the port. The service was great! We chose to pay in advance via PayPal, so when the driver arrived to pick us up, everything was already taken care of. The driver knew where we were going, and there was no payment to deal with - super easy.

The bonus points are showing on my account now as an adjustment. Yay!

BoA. I had to call twice to find a representative who was willing to help. She opened a case and said to allow 15 days for resolution. I am about halfway through that now.

I have the same thing on a 9/15 NCL charge (payment on cruise fare) - no bonus points included. I received the bonus points on a 9/27 charge also made to NCL on the same cruise booking. The bonus points for 9/15 are not on the monthly statement issued a few days ago.

This was our experience as well, September 2022.

Our son turned 19 a few months ago. He had an account that allowed him to access the Celebrity app before he turned 18, but he didn't have a Captains Club number. This summer, he joined Captains Club. We did have to email Celebrity Engagement to get the credit for past cruises added to the account, but it was no big deal. We also had to do that for my husband for some reason, and he has had his Captains Club number listed on all reservations. Now both of them have the correct points for all cruises taken.

We enjoyed lunch at El Leoncito.
