Thank you so much, NanaPam00 and cruisetonowhere10!! Most helpful!! We will plan accordingly!! Thank you, again. Ron

Does anybody know whether there are any Laundry Room for guest to use onboard the Edge and Solstice? We will be soon onboard both the Edge and the Solstice; will really, really appreciate your advice please. Thank you!! Ron

Our trip to India (among other places) will be in December. But we will only return home in November from our September trip. So there are not be much time in between trips. That is why we want to get our India visa approved before we leave home for our September trip. Lots of planning before our long trips!! Thanks for sharing information here so that we can be better informed and plan ahead of time.

Thank you!! When is your sailing? Have a safe and smooth sailing. Enjoy and have a wonderful time.

Thank you for the advice. May I please ask, on the visa application form, they ask for the "Details of the Reference in India". What did you put down for NAME, ADDRESS, and PHONE NUMBER in India? Will it be correct that, for NAME, I put Oceania Cruises, ADDRESS: Oceania's Ship Name; and Phone number 1-800-531-5619?? Appreciate your advices please. Thank you!!

Thank you for sharing the info! That explains why: You have to activate visa, i.e. travel within a certain time of it being approved. I think it's 28 days, then you have a month validity. As, we are going to apply for the 1-year tourist EVisa, it is a bit different for the validity.

Did you apply for the 30-day India Tourist EVisa?

Viking includes one shore excursion EACH DAY AT PORT!! Not just a set small amount of shore excursion credit which is not enough to cover a shore excursion each day at port.

Thank you Lorimay for the very helpful information and share your valuable experience. We have complementary Elite+ free wifi hours and wondering can we upgrade those complementary hours to premium wifi with a fee? Usually the complementary Elite+ wifi hours are good enough for us. Except this time, we need to host the Zoom meetings during our cruise. Does anybody has any experience in attending a Zoom meeting by using the standard wifi while onboard a Celebrity ship? Love to hear from you and thank you for sharing! Ronnie

Thank you, Ken and NutsAboutGolf, for sharing your Zoom experiences while onboard Celebrity's Edge-class ship. Appreciate your sharing the experiences and advices. Ken, I followed your recent live report on Eclipse from Sydney to Vancouver. What an enjoyable cruise!! Thank you for the detailed daily reports and lovely pictures. Would love to hear others who would care to share their thoughts and feedbacks of using the Zoom meeting experience while onboard Celebrity's Edge-class ship. Thank you! Ronnie Ronnie

We will be sailing onboard the Edge B3B from Vancouver to Sydney, Australia, in September 2024 (42 days). We will be hosting some Zoom meetings during the cruise. Would really appreciate hearing your experience, feedback, and advice if you have cruised on the Edge and used the Zoom for meetings - recently. Thank you and appreciate that you could please share your experience. Thank you!! Ronnie

IMO: Flying in and out of Hong Kong should be safe. Its airport is operating smoothly and back to "normal". Its "national" airline, Cathay Pacific, has resumed all its flight globally. Hong Kong has lifted all COVID restrictions and people are travelling all over the world again. I would not worry about flying in or out of Hong Kong!

Thank you so much for the information. It really help me plan my packing for my May cruise. Appreciate your help!! Ronnie

THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! This is REALLY helpful!! I just want to pack as little as possible - if I can help it. Princess's products are just fine with us!! Thank you, the pictures are perfect - better than ten thousand words!! Thank you and appreciate that you share the helpful information with us!!

If you are currently onboard the Crown Princess, could you please kindly let us know whether Princess still provides body lotion / hair conditioner in the cabin bath room? Thank you for sharing the information, as there are different reports with different reviews.

We will be sailing from Miami to Santiago on Dec. 18, 2022. Does anybody have the updated information for the COVID entry requirements for Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Falkland Islands, and Chile - apart from the vaccination requirement? Love to hear from you - thank you!

Looking forward to a larger walk-in showers!! Not only the bathtub is a dead trap for people who might slip and hurt themselves as they get in and out of the tub, but it also is a waste of precious space in the cabin. Who would like to soak in a bathtub shared with thousands and thousands of people who had used it before you?

AGREED!! Better be fully informed with updated information than NOT receiving updates!!

Thank you for the information - great summarization. I will be onboard soon. Looking forward to your postings.

How to you manage to get a prescription for Paxlovid BEFORE you actually get COVID? We would love to have the Paxlovid at hand - before we cruise - just in case!! Please advise. Thank you!!

Thank you for the detailed reminder - very helpful!!

Thank you!! That make sense!! We will be disembarking in Yokohama in our upcoming cruise. I wonder whether it will be, more or less, with the same procedure. Does anybody have a similar experience? Thank you!!

Good question!! I (hope) - but I do not know the answer - we can just put the luggage outside our state room, with a big label and/or luggage tags provided by O that clearly indicated it is for "Luggage Forwarding"; and the cabin steward will put the said luggage at the right place for Luggage Forwarding to collect at the terminal. (??) Hope the ATW cruisers will have the answer for that. Thank you!!

So glad that Celebrity reinstalls the previous entitled Captain's Club Benefits for Elites and above - more or less - again with the "cruise only" fare. It was terrible that Celebrity took away most of the benefits that we valued: free wi-fi minutes, etc., etc., and only offered the "always included" fare which is much higher than the cruise only fare. For those who do not drink, it is no added value at all. (You paid for something that you do not use at all.) I stopped booking Celebrity cruises once Celebrity introduce the "Always Included" fare because of that, as there are many other cruise lines that still offer more choices with better pricings.

We can't wait for a larger shower AND the bench seat!! Never want to use the used and shared bath tub with so many other guest who used it before us!!
