i always make mistakes talking pricing. Meant $900 deposit for both.

@superduper123, we booked early last week while onboard a cruise and got the 60% off for 2nd passenger, and AI was included. This was an April ‘23 cruise. If you are booking on your own using the website, it will show you if it includes the AI. If the itinerary includes AI, the sale doesn’t impact AI inclusion. Just check it as you pick. For us, we do use a TA and had the reservation moved to them and they were able to rebook using a Group discount which gave us further savings. And yes, there are plus/minus of that. Booking on board only cost $100pp deposit. To use the TA group booking, had to use the $500pp deposit. We don’t worry about deposits that much since dont make changes a lot. Good luck, and just double check with the itinerary you pick that it includes AI. Den

@OttawaJohn, just got off the Solstice on our Alaska cruise and had a Great time! The only thing I’ll say is, we didn’t need to coats we brought! Just layering. Fantastic cruise. Enjoy! den

We are asked Not to lay clothes out on the Veranda/Balcony or the chairs out there. So best to use the lines you bring in the BRs. There are 2 hooks to hang items in the shower but not a full line. Remember walking off the ship in Bahamas and the Capt was on the dock checking his lines with a few other officers. He looked up at the stern and there were clothes hanging on the chairs. He turned to his assistant and told him to find out the SR and to Get Them Removed from the balcony. Not a happy man. Fun to watch. Den

Yes it was. I tested positive 10days prior to testing negative 2 days prior. When checking on board and reporting via the Celebrity medical form as required, I was asked to step over to talk with the medical group which checked me with temp and more questions, and was allowed to board. So no problem with boarding although testing positive close to the cruise. It was tight, I had my family with 4 SRs set up and was afraid I’d not be going, but all worked out. And all worked out properly reporting my positive testing within 10 days and not just showing my monitored negative results done just prior. Den

Just got off the Solstice Alaska Cruise and a great portion of Oceanview was self-serve. They had gloves in various areas for those that wished to use them. Theater was mask-required, but few had them on. More started wearing them near the end of the cruise. All staff was masked. Den
