  1. Through special needs at Celebrity at least 2 weeks before you cruise. They will take your Mum to her cabin and she can immediately pickup her rented wheelchair. She can access her cabin immediately. They probably can make it available quickly with a pile request on board.
  2. OnSummit recently most were quarantined in their own cabin because simply put ship was full. Masks requested in theater and casino but not enforced. Lots of coughing and several dozens of passengers in quarantine.
  3. Same garbage different day. A self test is simply that. Can you fake a date? Sure. Same as a proctored test can be faked. Just go through the motions and ignore the comments that offer up implied rules.
  4. Agree with Rich. While I have not seen Jameson on any "list" with Celebrity (it is with Royal); buying a drink that costs $11 with the Classic package MAYBE costs you $2.40! Much of the time the bartenders to don't bother with the tiny upcharge. On Summit recently we were NEVER charged the extra. Silly to even discuss over a dollar or two. If I drink 15 Jamesons a day I have a far worse problem than deciding which drink package!
  5. You never know. Was available recently on Summit for 2 days of a 12 day cruise then sold out. Have not usually found it on board in prior years.
  6. Mary - the company that ran Luggage Valet is no longer in business. In Seattle the Port of Seattle operates the service. Could someone start up.a Luggage transfer service? Absolutely. Lots of other cities where it used to be offered.
  7. The longer the cruise the older those cruising such as TAs. Alaska and holiday cruises attract younger cruisers. Had a Thanksgiving cruise out of New Orleans with average age maybe 40 so assk if school in session. An October TA from Barcelona closer to 70.
  8. Absolutely agree. Give hugs to Margaret from the Moose man. She is great. Maine has had 5 days of perfect weather. Picture from outside our Airbnb near Camden ME. The champagne a give from our cabin steward! See you in April on the Apex
  9. Actually when you book with FBC you gave a choice of refundable or not. Depending on where you are cruising, the$200charge is from the airline; not FBC and like not refundable.
  10. Easy as asking once on board. Just understand your choices might be a bit limited
  11. If the picture is taken on your phone it is dated unless you turn it off. When proctored tests were allowed testing became a joke. What is a bit scary is allowing non immunized on board. Can see situations where passengers require evacuation.
  12. Also hard to underdress. DW and I wear Birkenstocks (with matching socks), fancy top and black pants for DWand dress shirt with kakhis and sports coat for me. On a recent TA there was everything from Tshirts (that looked awfully tacky) to tuxedos. No longer matters but hopefully one can dress like going to a nice restaurant.
  13. Time to move on. Any substance or derivative substance that is banned by Federal law is illegal on board cruise ships. Have seen passengers removed at the next port and left on the pier with their belongings. Definitely a choice for each person to make. And the passengers were then subject to the laws where they were put ashore.
  14. As said before - the app won't usually work correctly or at all until you are on board. On Summit last month showed nothing until we boarded then pretty good.
  15. They put a luggage tag on you bags with the correct cabin number. Then you check in and they give you the correct seapass card to get in your cabin.
  16. Am amazed there are so many FBC threads. FBC is and has been a consolidator that sometimes can offer lower fares. On international flights other consolidators have often been cheaper, but you pay now. The timing for payment is the main advantage of FBC. In today's crazy world of airlines, flight prices and the flights themselves change literally hourly
  17. They are available depending on a couple things. Adequate staffing level and covid numbers. Recently on Summit no backstage tour. One needs to be flexible
  18. All the testing rules change on 9/5. As for passengers count, Celebrity has sailed as high as 97% capacity. They are not holding back cabins. On Summit recently passengers were quarantined in their own cabinsB2B passenger testing varies by cruise duration and countries visited after 9/5
  19. And the rules on B2B are changing today often
  20. Is profanity needed? As I already said the tags are a graphics item that some might not have on their computer or printer. If you print out your docs they are the last page. Get a blank page and the problem is not with Celebrity. Personally I would rather the several thousand dollars it would cost to mail & print them for everyone on a cruise be spent on better food on board.
  21. The problem is likely the software on your computer. It did not recognize the format for the tags and gave you a blank page. Truly wondering why so important to print out tags when they can tag at the pier?
  22. Safe journey. We had a fast walkout disembarkation. US CBP was faster that we thought possible. Staying in Maine for a week just north or Portland. Wonder if our BnB owner will be doing trivia or cleaning our apartment each day. If anyone if on Summit on deck 7 say hi to Savio from Susan and Joss
  23. Depends. Some cabins yes. A few ok.
  24. Currently on a 12 day cruise. No special laundry deal on our cruise. Shampoo works great for washing in the sink. Wring then roll in a towel. Walk on the towel. Hang up. Most all will dry in 24 hours or less. We bring a clothes line and suction cup.
