Not discounting your experience at all, you were there, I was not, so this cruise sucked for you! That is really too bad, esp after spending so much hard earned cash. So with 6 cruises, 5 being great and 1 being sucky, that is still an 84% satisfaction level. If it were me, I'd not give up on cruising altogether, but perhaps I'd try another line when the time is right and see what happens on that experience.

Well it is hard to keep up with a man of my youth, vim and vigor!

Lol and by then I may even be pentavaxed!

Bo - I’ll be boarding a cruise in October from Rome. If you don’t have an answer by then I’ll let you know what I have to do. I am quadruple vaxed though I will ask about unvaccinated.

Ahh what I learn on Google from comments CC'ers make. Today it's Veuve and red M&M's were taken away because of the Russians! Stick with me kid, I am a wealth of useless information!

Don't believe I said I did not want to read them. On the contrary, I do, it helps me keep things in perspective. If people don't want responses they don't want to hear, then don't post, if they do, they are open to responses, some they will like, some they will not, pretty simple actually.

If it is a tour you really think you wish to go on, you may want to consider booking it anyway, just to have the place holder if it sells out. You can always cancel it later without penalty, even on-board within the allowed time.

So are you trying to tell me that Geraldo and Kethya did not really have any interest in seeing my grandchildren's photos and the trophy room dedicated to their peewee sports trophies?? Then why did I buy them a bag of red M&M's that can only be found in my hometown? Say it ain't so!

Spot on here, IMO. Some say they are just "venting", really? The diatribes (on so many subjects) go on and on and on...I call it a RANT, a useless one at that! I book my cruises direct w/Celebrity and then move it to a TA, from that point on, I deal with and only with the TA. He is responsive and if/when I need Celebrity help, he does it on my behalf, though it is rare I need to do this. Also, when I was booking on my own during the craziness of cancellations etc. I called Celebrity on a number of occasions, never had an excessive wait time, never, and almost always the issue was resolved. The times that it was not, was frankly because I misunderstood something or did not read it thoroughly, so yes my fault. Considering what they have had to deal with as a company and the CSR's have to deal with day in and day out, and stay professional with many of their callers, I have been pleased and impressed.

Did you go on a cruise this spring/summer Bo? I seem to recall your mentioning Bermuda?

It looks like the “new” boosters may be rolled out in September and the Biden administration says Moderna and Pfizer will be ready to go, if so, some very potentially positive news.

and they see to think it's cute too...it's not, just give them the $1 bill or a couple if you are a $2/drink tiipper. On the other hand, grown adults, who I assume have been going out to eat/drink during their adult life, needing to ask strangers, gee what do you tip, so I know what I should do. Good grief

Did you check to see if there is a roll call for this cruise?

I think you mean ble$$ed - $o - a$. I hate when $spell check doe$ not work.

Ye$, it i$ definitely very important to the crew to keep in touch with u$ crui$ers, whom they have bonded with.

Pay for any seat that you want to select or for extra legroom, exit row etc?

I do it now as well, and I am 62 and have only 2 kids, a boy and a girl, they tell me OMG dad, you have become grammy!

I know I was kidding. My mother used to go thru all 6 kids name before she got to the right one

But he's 20 now, did he have a couple of unbirthdays?

I would be as well

I just had my 2nd booster just over one week ago and my Dr told me I can still get the new one when it is available in the fall

Not trying to assume anything, but if your question pertains to excursions you booked now looking like they are outside of port arrival/departure times, if booked direct w/Celebrity, they will adjust the times accordingly

it's more of a status thing than anything else, it sounds better than just saying champagne

No apology needed at all, I was not trying to be offensive, but I've been guilty of it a time or two+
