  1. What has been your experience with the stop in Bimini, please? I am supposing this is basically just a beach day.
  2. The best thing about Aqua class is your assigned dining room is Blu.
  3. Yes, that is correct. If you do not like the TA you had for your current cruise, you have to sign some papers to remove that TA from your on board booking. Or if you just want to try another TA or leave the booking with Celebrity.
  4. The "something" the day before is the video for muster drill. Do not fret. That can be done after you are on board in your cabin. That is how we always do it. No app for us! Everything can be done at the pier.
  5. When you get close to the end of your cruise, please see if you can find out if the back to back cruisers will be tested. They probably won't know until a couple of days before the last day. Thanks.
  6. You do understand that as a suite guest your assigned dining is at the suite restaurant Luminae? I wouldn't be in a hurry to book a lot of specialties as Luminiae is very special. Also, your butler or the Retreat concierge is likely to be able to get nearer the time you wish to book a specialty while you are on board.
  7. You can use it in the casino. Just ask how to use for either slots or tables. If you lose it all, what the heck it's their money. If you win anything, great. So far, we always win either a little or a lot.
  8. On Equinox a couple of weeks ago, there were detailed instructions on how to convert your OBC at slots posted at the cashier's desk. The notation at the end of the instructions said that the credit then was for either playing or cashing out.
  9. I suggest you wait till on board to see if it makes sense for you to pay for the premium upgrade. All usual cocktails except the specials at the World Class Bar and the large martinis' at the martini bar are covered on the classic package. Better wines are in the premium package, but due to supply issues, sometimes the wines listed are not available.
  10. Craft Social usually shows sports on several different TV screens. No way to know about a specific game, but they do show NFL games sometimes.
  11. Jim, I think that is a suite laundry turn around time. Same thing a couple of weeks ago on Equinox for our suite. I have read several posts lately of it being at least 2 days for laundry turn around in non-suite cabins.
  12. Recent b2b from Ft. Lauderdale, FL. Yes, you could go ashore on turn around day if you wanted. If positive you had to exit the ship on turn around day.
  13. There were free drinks for players in the casino on Equinox last cruise in July and first cruise in August. I noticed servers coming around rather often. Don't know about going to the casino bar.
  14. So, suites still get the All Included with the new sale? I just looked at one of my cruises and a penthouse is available for less than what we have paid for SS, of which none are now available.
  15. So am I correct that vaccinated guests must have a negative test within 3 days of sailing now for US ports except LA and Canada, Burmuda cruises?
  16. Just off b2b on Equinox Sunday. Testing was done from 8 AM to 9:30 AM in Quazar day before last day. Told if positive we would be notified. Otherwise, assume negative. I so hope they drop this SOON! If positive, you have to get off the ship at port.
  17. You are NOT required to put on your life jacket at all. Just watch the 2 minute video and report to the muster station.
  18. Short cruises are not necessarily party cruises, but they are not typical either. Many more families and children, younger demographic, etc.
  19. No, expired passport won't work.
  20. Flights are cheaper into MIA than FLL for us, but what would transportation cost to get from MIA to our FLL hotel and back to MIA from debarking in FLL, please? We have done the opposite FLL to MIA using SAS a couple of times. But their service only originates in FLL area.
  21. Good catch. I seem to never remember the two dining places on Silly that Equinox does not have.
  22. Silly was revolutionized. Equinox only partly revolutionized. Equinox Retreat sun deck not accessible and no water feature. If you are not in a suite, very little difference in ships.
  23. You may cash out any refundable OBC on the last day of the cruise. I am impressed with how X is encouraging and reminding folks to use all their Non refundable OBC.
