Personally I would all go together at 12pm. It is very crowded at 11:30am. 🙂

My recommendation would be carry your own luggage off - start lining up by 6:30am. Taking a taxi will be quicker (in my opinion) then trying to find your private ride. Taxis are lined up and ready out front. The airport is literally 10 minutes away. We have made flights that early but we do have TSA pre-check which also helps.

Never have I ever remained sober for an entire cruise! 🙂 Never have I ever NOT tipped for each drink I receive at the bar - I was a bartender and server for years. Never have I ever NOT told the crew how much I appreciate them!

30 days out

@SGCruiser2013 Great review! We LOVE the Beyond and have sailed with Captain Kate on Equinox and Edge. We will be cruising next June with our kids and grandbabies for our 25th Anniversary and want to reserve a cabana for a sea day. Did you reserve it on line or did you have to call? When I log on the website it shows the price but not the ability to book it for different days. Thank you so much!

Put it in your carry-on along with a note from your doctor.

You can also cash one check up to $200 per cruise at the guest services desk. 🙂

We haven't stayed there in the last year but we have stayed there twice. Our last visit was around 2 years ago and we won't be back. Very overpriced and the RUDEST staff we have ever encountered at a hotel.

This was on Beyond

PLENTY of time to make that flight! They kick you off the ship early and the airport is only 10 minutes away. We have made a 9:30am and 10am flight. On those cruises we walked off with our luggage as soon as they starting disembarking. We also have TSA pre-check which helps. You will have lots of time with that flight! Have a wonderful trip! 🙂

LOL! Monday morning brain! Yes 2024. 🙂

Our cruise is October 21, 2023 and we received the email on July 24, 2023.

I was just going to say the same thing! The Retreat on E Class is amazing!

Ship: Eclipse Length of Cruise: 7 nights Cruise Sail Date: October 20 - 28, 2024 Date email offer received: July 24, 2024 Captain’s Club Tier: Elite Plus Booked through Celebrity Direct OR via TA: TA Current Cabin: Concierge -C1 Bid? Yes/No: NO. We love the location of our cabin - right on the hump and close to the elevators. We have been in the Retreat a few times in both S Class and E Class ships and the upgrade prices are not worth it (in my opinion) for an older ship with no Retreat Deck. Royal Suite: $3,000pp min. Celebrity Suite: $2,000 pp min. AquaClass Sky Suite: $1,300pp min. Sunset Sky Suite: $1,250pp min. Sky Suite: $800pp min. AquaClass: $500pp min. Sunset Concierge Class Stateroom: $450pp min. There are still quite a few cabins available so I thought the prices were high.

Hands down the best place to stay is the Pier House! Not cheap but EXCELLENT location. We love Bagatelle! Amazing brunch and happy hour!

We ran into the same problem looking for a hotel on October 20, 2023. Taylor Swift is performing in Miami and LOTS of reasonably priced hotels are over $500 per night. We booked a junior suite at the Riverside for a great price! We have never stayed there and are really looking forward to our stay. 🙂

Love these updates!!! Have a fabulous day. We LOVE Key West and have stayed there a few times!

Free drinks ONLY in the Retreat Lounge. They ask for your seapass card at the Retreat Sundeck.

We want to stay in the new tower and are looking at the King Junior Suites. Would these be in the new section? Also which view would be better? Thank you!

If you decide to take the later flight I would book a day room at a hotel so you aren't stuck sitting at the airport all day. 🙂

We have made many flights between 9:30am and 10:30am. We make sure to walk off with our luggage and we do have TSA pre check which helps. The airport is a quick 10 minute cab ride away. There are tons of taxis lined up and waiting at the port. We also fly into Philly which does have many flight options. I would go for it! I HATE sitting around the airport waiting for a flight once my vacation is over.

Wow! I have learned some great information that I pray we never need. Prayers for a complete recovery! Wanda

Unfortunately no

We were in 7241 two weeks ago. There was a little noise but not too bad. We had a horrible experience last November in a Suite. Make sure the doors in front of the infinite balcony are tightly closed at night and that helped with the noise we heard the first night. 🙂

We have sailed on Edge twice - once in a Suite and once in Aqua. We have sailed on Apex in a regular Infinite Veranda. We sailed on the Beyond in November in a Suite and just disembarked Monday from the Beyond in an Infinite Veranda. We have had amazing cruises on all of them but really enjoyed our latest cruise on the Beyond not being in a Suite. We also did not enjoy the Retreat Lounge but loved the bar at the Retreat pool. We also are not big fans of Luminae. Not being in a Suite we really enjoyed more venues on the ship outside of the "Retreat area". We did miss having the Retreat area to hang out in before getting off of the ship but personally I don't think the prices they are charging are worth it. You will have an amazing time!
