Re 'entertainment'.....if you've sailed other X ships and attended the shows (which have been the same for at least 10 years, ship to ship) are the production shows different on E class or the same throughout the line? That's my only negative sailing with X....the entertainment is always the same and has become a put off to us.

usually noted on your website booking .... my new cabin # was shown right after email 'congrats'.

OT..... are these robes lightweight?

😉

my head is spinning 🤑🥴.... how many more ways can we explain this???

Tres Bon! Votre Anglais c'est super.....my french.. non le mien. i hope you give CELEBRITY another chance under better conditions.

Whew! That's a long cocktail hour(s)....! 😉. Hope the main course was worth waiting for. My DH would have had a visit to the OV for a snack...LOL.

Where do you find the daily Luminae menus? I can't on the app...maybe on the X website but would that be up to date?

I'm looking at our boarding passes now for upcoming cruise....only says "Day before your cruise: Answer your health questions in the app". No mention of wellness check but answering the questions are most likely that.

If you re-read the comment, it wasn't the 'lack of bread' but the defensive response "you forgot to order it"? Some can't pass on the opportunity to inject their particular attempt at humour which may come off as rude. I'm surprised the comment wasn't "let them eat cake".

I think you mentioned you've embarked at terminal #18? Do you know if there's a suite entrance or would we wait in the line for our allotted time? TIA.

Our one and only Carnival cruise was an eye opener. There was a wedding onboard and the groomsmen were 'over served'...to say the least. Behaviour from one area to another....fights, harrassment, and our 'attractive staff-dancer daughter' spending some off time with us, was grabbed and pulled into their aggressive circle telling her she didn't have to spend her time with the 'older' people and come and have fun. SHE never worked for them again after that contract. ALL the groomsmen spent most of their vaca in the brig. Yes, the ships have a brig.

You just gave an example which was harmless and not necessary to comment on. ...but most likely poster was joking. BTW...we enjoyed an SS1 in 2019....didn't use the butler once as we're happy to fend for ourselves and considered he was busy with other suites...BUT....there's no doubt they like to attend to their guests and I'm reading they are a little disappointed when not asked to assist. We're back in an SS this November and would like to oblige. I bring a tablecloth each cruise for breakfast set up (flamers can comment here....😉). Any suggestions for some things the butler might help us with?

Very much like our 'routine' onboard; hopefully a little distancing will help avoid the virus although we do go to the shows (seen so often we could do the routines...LOL) but still enjoy them.

I hadn't noticed and had checked often. Did go up though!

I can't remember sailing out of terminal 18....is there a big difference between ports other than the Edge embarkation? Edit 1: Just googled and saw the pics....a BIG difference. #18 doesn't look very hospitable. Edit 2: Did a search on this CC site and found much better pics. Seems #18 was designed for RCL large ships. Looks much friendlier with people in the pics...LOL.

thanks!

How do you find your sailing terminal? We're on Equinox in 3 weeks...most likely 29?

We're scheduled for the latest booster tomorrow....3 weeks from sailing. We haven't had the virus although several in our golf club circle have and we've been in close company with them at 'functions', finding out later they and MANY others came out of them with covid. We also have had colds but never had the flu in our lifetime, so wonder about our natural immunity. In any case will NOT think we won't contract it on board as circumstance might catch up to us...😒. Now I'm thinking of masks, etc and a 'plan B' as you suggested JIC. Thanks for sharing...helps me in decision making.

You were looking forward to this cruise and I'm so sorry you contracted the virus to spoil your vacation. Did your DW ever come down with it after returning home? We're boarding in a few weeks and wondered how the ship would handle those who became ill with Covid. Seems you both were treated well by Equinox staff...🙂

Thanks all for info on MPC. app....I didn't know it existed. Input was easy and SHOULD help getting through Customs line at Pearson. In comments on the app page, one poster mentioned there was no clear signage directing which line to use. Does it work like the Nexus line? I've read the Nexus machines are usually out of order (and were even when we last travelled through YYZ 3 years ago - no change - LOL).

are there any on the Buffalo border?

Just renewed Dh Nexus and mine will be next month. If they rescind the program, wonder if there will be a refund?? LOL....it's govt....who knows.
