I received this email on the weekend and decided to give it a shot. Very easy to book on line, no payment till August. Fingers crossed they don’t start moving my flights around but so far it’s worked for me.

You could Google search a couple of your ports for the statistics, rather than anecdotal info. Try "Copenhagen July weather," for example. Our experience in that time frame is warmer than you suggest.
Yes I did that. Was looking more for on the water/sailing info.

We will be sailing from Amsterdam to Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsinki, St Petersburg at the end of July. I am expecting sunny long days, with highs of mid teens and a max of 20 (Celsius) and anticipate cool evenings on the verandah while sailing. Does this sound about right ? I plan a light windbreaker and a cardigan as part of my packing ... any input appreciated. !

You may want to consider applying for NEXUS. This will allow you to go through Global Entry line. Also gives you TSA pre check. Good for 5 years.
I have a Nexus card. Have never seen a separate line for this at the port, only the airport. This change I’ve read of is quite recent, as we cruised in November in Reflection and were fine. Since then and perhaps related to the shutdown, I’ve heard all US citizens are off first. Everyone else waits So I’ll be interested in Mr Ts input.

Mr T, am really enjoying your review. We were on Reflection in November and are booked for July 2919 to Scandinavia, and March 2020 Caribbean as well. As a non US citizen I’d be interested to have you post about disembarkation in Port Everglades when that sad day arrives. I have read several reports of chaos for non US citizens, even for the walk off crowd.
Thanks for taking us along.

I think the $25 deposit with two perks is more widely available, it’s the four perks that are specific to the Edge. I think .....

IMO it’s not great. Very ‘thin’ and not a pleasant aroma.

CD Lewis is heading to Solstice.

CD Lewis posted on his IG today that he’s no longer going to the Edge as originally planned. Said he’d provide an update soon. Sounds like some changes are afoot. We thought Lewis was great on Reflection in November.

Does anyone know current prices for two chairs and an umbrella?

Always love to follow along, and this time doubly so as we board the Reflection when you get off! Enjoy! I’ll be reading along.

[emoji51] love your live forms and just saw you posted on Instagram so I hopped right over! Enjoy. We will be embarking Reflection as you disembark in November. And we’ve sailed the Equinox several times. Great itinerary you have also.

I had a helpful agent at the Captains Club desk. However I was not able to upgrade beverage package using OBC because our OBC is from the travel agent. I could pay now for the discounted upgrade, but since the cruise is a year away, I decided to wait. I don’t mind giving my $$ a month or two in advance but not a year ahead on an item that won’t sell out.

I am pricing a cruise for Europe for summer 2019. On the web site for the on line travel agency located in New Hampshire it indicates “group exists for this sailing”. Does anyone know what this means? A charter, or perhaps just an internal pricing alert? TIA.

Sounds similar to what we refer to as "deer in the headlights" syndrome..They stop short in their tracks, blocking everyone while trying to figure out where they are and where they want to go, oblivious to all around them!

I hate it when people get off the elevator, stand there, look me in the eye and say “where’s the bingo” (or whatever). I now either ignore them or say do you see a Celebrity name tag on me. I feel they just can’t be bothered to research the location of the events they are looking for.

Can you tell me more about why you were unimpressed? We're thinking about doing Las Caletas, but don't want to be stuck there all day if time would be better spend in PV
As I said, the red tide situation made it unsafe to be in the water. It’s quite rustic. Lunch was excellent but the water situation was a real turn off for us from the start.

So the refundable deposit onboard is $250 pp for non-suites stateroom. Is that correct? What is the refundable deposit should we book from home?
I believe that your brother may have to be going on the same booked cruise, however.
Oh that won’t work then. [emoji53]
