  1. Look at your cruise docs that were emailed to you. There is a page with port directions that tells you which terminal to use. (Should be page 7)

  3. Celebrity uses whichever terminal the port assigns to them. I have a cruise in Dec and Jan (Connie) and it says terminal 3. I have a cruise in Feb (Connie) and it says terminal 2. Connie is at terminal 3 today (11/22). I've had occasions where the cruise left out of one terminal and returned to a different terminal. Not a problem in Tamps.
  4. There are no machines. There are attendants at the entrance. (Both the garage and surface lot) They will take care of it for you.
  5. "Echte Boter" is dutch for "Real Butter".
  6. We had two cruises on Serenade in August. Both of were for early fixed dining. When we got on the ship they were both changed to MTD. In both cases I was told it was done by the shoreside team. I contacted customer service and was told it was done by the ship. I did get it changed to early fixed dining, but like the title says "what's the point of picking your dining time..."
  7. I noticed the $99.75 charge on my last few cruises. It always showed as "pending" on my credit card and after a few days it dropped off.
  8. The September 23rd cruise on Vision was cancelled because of bad weather. I would guess they are parking there until their next cruise.
  9. There is not a dedicated Celebrity terminal in Tampa. Port of Tampa cruise schedules The link above will take you to the port of Tampa cruise schedule. If you click on the name of the ship it will tell you what terminal it is "scheduled" to be at.
  10. Here is some parking info for Tampa. Check your cruise documents to see which terminal your cruise is going out off. Sometimes a cruise will leave out of one terminal and return to a different one. If it leaves out of 2 or 3 and returns to 2 or 3 it is an easy walk to the garage. If it leaves out of 2 or 3 and returns to 6 there will be shuttles. If it leaves out of 6 and returns to 2 or 3 there will be shuttles. If you use valet parking your car will be delivered to the correct terminal. Cruise Terminal 2 Cruise Terminal 3 Cruise Terminal 6 Purchase regular or valet parking. There are other places to park around the port of Tampa. I have not had any experience with them.
  11. You should also get an email about 30 days before your cruise with your cruise documents. The luggage tags will be at the end of the document.
  12. Porters load the luggage on carts and wheel them into the terminal. The bags get unloaded to go through the x-ray machine. They are then loaded onto the carts that get loaded onto the ship. Ships crew does not touch the luggage until it is actually on the ship.
  13. Tried Murano for lunch in Alaska. Fabulous.

  15. Just got off Serenade today 8/21. Had Gregory Behrendt for the welcome aboard show. He was Ok. Did not see his late show. The other headliner was Ronn Lucas. He was great. We saw his early show and went back to see his second show. He does not do an adult show.
  16. If you are using the Port of Tampa parking. Terminal 2 or 3 you park in the garage across the street. Terminal 6 you park in the lot in front of terminal. Terminal 2 Terminal 3 Terminal 6
  17. @mbjonsn We just sailed on the Celebrity Solstice from 5/26 to 6/2. We were at Pier91 with the Ovation of the Seas. I think the Quantum will be the only ship there on 6/12. We arrived in a Lyft car at noon. 4 adults and 5 suitcases. The car dropped us off in front of the terminal. As soon as we got out of the car I spotted a porter with a luggage cart. I asked him to take our luggage. I gave him a tip and he was off. We walked to the terminal entrance and a couple of ladies checked for passport and Xpress Pass. We then went upstairs to security. Went pretty quick. Then we went to the actual check-in. Done with tablets and super quick. We were on the ship about 30 minutes after getting out of car. Disembarkation was pretty smooth. Since we were staying in an AirBnb ( could not drop luggage at AirBnb until 11:00) we took the latest group to get off the ship. We walked off about 10 and collected our luggage. One case had a corner ripped off so we had to stop and file a report. After that we went through a passport check. Easy. We left the terminal and walked to the ride share lot. (About 10 mins). There are also shuttle buses to go there. Our driver showed up about 10 mins after we got to the lot. As far as getting there early I can't give you any advice. Around 10 AM it was pretty hectic in front of the terminal with people arriving and departing. There are several videos about pier 91 on YouTube. Just search "Pier 91 Seattle"
  18. @Ferry_Watcher. Got off Solstice last Friday. Thanks for you embark/debark info. It helped a lot. That pier sure gets packed with the Ovation and Solstice there.
  19. @Ferry_Watcher, thanks for the info. I'll be checking out pier 91 shortly. Sailing on the Solstice.
  20. @Ferry_Watcher, how was disembarkation with both the Solstice and Ovation at pier 91. How were the lines for taxis or ride shares.
