Last year, I was able to get Scavi Tour tickets for my date of choice by filling out the Contact Us form on the official Scavi website. A couple days afterward, I received an email asking me to review my reservation and confirm my request.

This is a gifted article and should not require a subscription to read. It sounds awful.
Although Celebrity’s website says you will have two EC nights, the actual practice for an extended sailing such as yours should result in three EC evenings.
Your itinerary looks awesome and it marks a return to Asia after a multi-year absence for Celebrity. We will be cruising on her in December.
Have a nice cruise!
I just received my FOMO email reminder about the current sale ending soon. Now there's a question that I wished was asked on the webinar (normal prices masquerading as limited time sales).
Thank you for posting the link. I agree with her (and I posted this earlier) the ferry experience is different than the cruise ship experience. However I found the ferry experience physically grueling because of the length of the trip and the exposure to the hot sun and humidity. When we do our full canal transit in April, I am not sure whether we will take that tour again.
A fee affecting only RCG passengers:

Maybe it will be for a new pier. The last time we visited St Thomas (Eclipse), we had to tender.
We used magnets to hold our Christmas decoration to the door during our first family Christmas cruise in 2016.
The smaller door decorations we used for our second family Christmas cruise clinged to the metal door surface by themselves (no adhesive, no magnet).
I do believe that the cancellation of your cabin booking will automatically trigger the cancellation of shorex, specialty dinner reservations, spa, etc that are attached to your reservation. I don't know if there is a way for them to manually intervene.
I thought the answer was very cleverly composed--that couples on the same schedule will like it while those that are not might not like it (e.g. the early riser may end up disturbing the partner that sleeps in).
I just got through watching the webinar with the lousy wi-fi that I have in my hotel room. I was impressed with the questions that were asked. A few answers lacked candor. Still I thought it was worth watching for the three points.
We have been on both and they are essentially the same. The 5 Solstice class ships are divided in two groups in our minds:
1. Solstice/Equinox/Eclipse. These are the first 3 ships and they have the Hot Glass Show venue.
2. Silhouette/Reflection. They do not have the Hot Glass Show, but instead they have two specialty restaurants that Solstice/Equinox/Eclipse don't have: Lawn Club Grill and The Porch.
The Sweet 16 cabins will be categorized as Deluxe Veranda:
The Ultra Deluxe Concierge Class cabins are the 4 lavender colored cabins on the Deck 6 plan that are nestled in between the suites in the aft section:
Thanks for letting me know about the tags. I hope you and your husband have many more cruises in the future to use them! By the way, when and where is your next cruise?
It resembles the schedule that was used with regularity before COVID hit. There will be a variation in the exact dates and possibly some variation in the order--my memory is not that good although I do remember that the Caribbean sailings are usually released last in the pre-COVID years.
