We purchase a yearly policy from Allianz. We also purchase additional medical coverage from GeoBlue. We have never had to use either of them, but I like just purchasing them once a year for all of our travel.
We were on the Grandeur 3 times last year and the MTD line was always long. I hope that you are able to switch to early dining, but if you can’t the Windjammer is an option.
You are Elite on Celebrity. They have an evening happy hour each night(except for the first night) between 5-7 with a limited menu.You do qualify for a free bag of laundry and of course a top tier event. They have a breakfast each morning with a few food items along with Bloody Mary’s, Mimosa’s, Bellini’s and a few others. You also receive 90 minutes of internet for the entire cruise.
We were on the Rhapsody TA that ended in Haifa. There were so many postings of problems/issues and we still toured Jerusalem and Bethlehem with no issues. We also enjoyed Tel Aviv.
We always fly in the day before. I wouldn’t want to miss the ship and if your flight is arriving at 12, that is too close IMO. The port isn’t that close to Port Canaveral.
