  1. Lots easier to link your accounts either at checkin for your next cruise or at customer service on board after the lines go down. For the missing point, as others said emails work but take 4+ weeks. I was actually again able to have the Captain's Club reb ON BOARD fix things in a minute or two. They also gave me a small freebie to say sorry.
  2. Just do it on a cell phone. Automatically formats to acceptable size. And right now it is taking 3+ weeks to get acknowledgement of acceptance! No suggestions there.
  3. Several recent posts got to websites wanting $65 to file the app. Those websites are a scam. The easiest way to avoid bring ripped off is to go to the Goggle or Apple store and download the app. It is free!!!! No cost. Gratis. Suggest using a phone as taking a picture of yourself, covid card and passport are automatically formatted by cell phones. If you do not complete the app you are not allowed to board, thus boarding gets slowed. Proof either by printed copy or showing your phone. It only takes a few minutes if you have your passport and covid cards handy.
  4. Not sure. Is it the CEOs fault for Westjet that they have 4 vacancies for every qualified pilot applicant? Thus cancelling thousands of flights. How about Delta or my local water company. Suggest some of us could agree to be CRS for Celebrity. They simply cannot get people to apply and then they need to be trained. Takes MONTHS. How many here used to complain they could not get answers? Not the CEOs fault. The fault of free money that says to people they do not need to work.
  5. You are getting all sorts of answers. Either go to the Insurance Store and ask Steve or go to the Insurance Sticky thread.
  6. Wondering how? Since by definition an inside cabin is one that does not touch the hull; how do you have anything except a virtual porthole.
  7. Beetroot. Hard to get a burger without it when I lived in Australia. Got a good laugh from this thread. Last cruise in Blu a group of 8 couples set up a table for 16 late one evening. Ordered three of every appetizer, a few salads and 16 assorted entrees. Dessert was my specialty- Creme Brulee drizzled with dark chocolate sauce and dusted with cinnamon. The head chef joined us. Dinner went on till midnight till they said no more wine or coffee.
  8. Download the email confirmation to your phone. No wifi then needed. Same with ArriveCAN.
  9. True but both TAs I use have a note that they are awaiting revised itineraries.
  10. Next to the pool. Take a look at the deck plan. You can also easily take food from the OV outside.
  11. Or any government approved test proctored by any proctoring company. As of yesterday the US government WAS supplying free tests. What they are no longer doing is paying for testing - very different. If you are not going on a cruise why do a proctored antigen test from Emed or another company? A free test works fine. Same kit.
  12. If one refused to relocate they per the cruise contract would likely be thrown off at the next port.
  13. You need to take a trip to the US. Likely not too far.
  14. The governments in the US and Canada will still send you tests FREE. It is the testing process that may or may not be free. Proctoring costs as little as $14.99. Cheap. My county health dept offers free PCR tests for those with symptoms, but these don't work for travel as 2-3 day results. You might get it done for free, but spending a few dollars is insignificant compared to the cost of a cruise.
  15. Do the math. Ifcyour flight is not delayed, cancelled or time changed you should arrive in front of the terminal about 3pm. It is AT LEAST a 2 hour drive so 5pm possibly. You need to start checkin by 5:30. Certainly will be a challenge with so much beyond your control.
  16. Jim just spoke to Celebrity about an issue on another cruise. Gangplank up at 4pm for Iceland and all aboard at 3:30.
  17. I was told I needed to be "at the pier" no less than 90 minutes before sailing to checkin in Reykjavik. As said ask on board. Seems 60 minutes would be plenty to walk from the curb show your pass and walk through security.
  18. The "luggage tags" are the last page of your boarding documents. If you print on regular paper they come off very often. Tape one with clear packing tape to achieve suitcase and have the porters at the pier put the regular tag on each bag.
  19. Have always had a clothes line in my cabin. The suction or magnetic hooks come from Harbor Freight. A bit heavy twine and a bag of small plastic clips. Works great. Packs easily. Weighs almost nothing.
  20. Canapés? Really. We always tell our cabin attendant not to bother. Would rather put together a cheese plate or a bit of sushi along with a Strongbow. I always deliver at the "correct" time.
  21. Sounds like you are asking about a positive covid test pre cruise. Yes? You need to provide proof of that test to Celebrity. A self test at home is not sufficient. Need a proctored test.
  22. Any government approved test (US or Canada or UK or ??) can be used by Rapid Test or any other proctoring company. The results are certified for cruising. Rapid Test goes easiest if you download Microsoft Teams, but not necessary.
  23. Viv - you probably need to go to the Celebrity website as there are several things not included - afternoon canapés and shoe shines and several included including Blu (the reason we book Aqua if a reasonable amount over a Veranda) and access to the Persian Garden at the Spa.
  24. There are only a couple big box TAs that do not participate. One that has retail the biggest issue. I have a group fare from my TA. I did not get an invite so logged on and made a MoveUp bid
