I'll have to read the small print!🙂

Have not be on Celebrity before. Can you bring these drinks into the MDR? Tip jar for these complimentary drinks? Thanks.

Just got off Princess with its "Dine My Way". Hostess always asked (even though we had made reservations) if we wanted table for two or shared. Did both. For this Celebrity cruise we decided to do select dining with same time for all but one night, and a later time for our late port (Juneau) night.

I guess so. At home we are easily finished with washing dishes by 6:30pm.🙂

I thought a passenger could only carry on two 750ml bottles of wine at embarkation.

We like a table for 6 to meet different people, but in our experience we have found that with a table for 2 (at 5:45pm) we have a better chance to make it to the early shows. Have you found this to be the case also?

Thank you for the all of your replies. Is there a place on app to choose table size?

Have not been on Celebrity before. If we do fixed seating for 6 nights, can we do anytime dining for the 7th night (Juneau has late departure)? Thanks.

Curious why someone would make reservations for one level of the Summit's Cosmopolitan Restaurant over the other?

Again, thank you for your time with these questions. Very much appreciated! Once we get to Waterfront Road in front of the cruise terminal, I assume (maybe I shouldn't) that it is well marked for pedestrian entry and to the luggage drop-off. We should have ample time. Light bags not too sure----each with medium size suitcase with rollers, 1 carry-on with rollers and a backpack. Now will look into Canada Line from YVR to Blue Horizon. Have never used it. What is the closest drop off to BH? Thanks again. You have been a big help.

I think my wife has settled on the Blue Horizon. I read that it takes about 17 minutes to walk to Canada Place from the BH. With luggage on wheels, would that be an easy walk? Downhill? Sidewalks? You are loaded with information! Thank you again.

Thank you for all of your comments. Glad that we picked out a few that should be fine. I noticed that the EXchange is only a 6 minutes walk to the pier. Each of us will only have 2 pieces of luggage and small backpack so that may be her choice. I was looking more at the BH. Now will let my wife take a final look before decision is made. Thanks again!

Trying to decide between 3 hotels in Vancouver for wife and me to spend a couple nights prior to cruise. Wondering if you can help us out. Looking for safe area and near restaurants. EXchange Hotel, Blue Horizon Hotel and the YWCA Hotel. Thank you.

On northbound 7 night sails, what nights are "formal"? Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. More questions if I may. Looking at the Celebrity app, I didn't see anything about table size for a choice. Are there tables for two? Made reservations for times, but no mention of table size. Looks like different opening dinner times for decks 4 and 5 of restaurant. Disregarding times, did you prefer one deck over the other? Were you able to order a couple entrees, desserts for a meal? We saw maybe 3 guys with a tux and several with jackets on the Sapphire.Thanks again.

My wife and I signed up for the Summit to Alaska for next year--- sister ship to Millenium. First time doing a Celebrity cruise. Wondering if you could post a copy of one of the daily "Celebrity Today" newsletters. Did you have a favorite scenic viewing area on ship? We just got off the Sapphire Princess and show times were 7:30 pm and 9:30 pm. 45 minutes long. Why did you have no choice but 6 pm dining? Nice that you were able to bring some alcohol onboard. Princess allowed only a 750ml bottle of wine per passenger at embarkation. We were able to pick our embarkation boarding time. On formal night, did many guys wear sport jackets? Several did on the Sapphire. Thank you.

Lower Dewey. Also Laughton Glacier (https://wpyr.com/excursions/product/skagway-to-laughton-round-trip/).

We are staying at the Captain Cook in June and have a train transfer the next morning to Whittier leaving Anchorage at 10AM. Package is through Princess.

Curious how far in advance do most make pre-cruise hotel reservations. Will be leaving from Vancouver to Alaska. Thanks.

I just sent you an email. Please email me back with your phone number. Easier to talk than type. Bruce

My wife and I have flown with Michelle 4 times, including one trip to "Anan Wildlife Observatory" to see bears. Plan to go with her again next summer.

Curious why Princess medallion has our countdown at 35 days to sail and the Princess online website has the countdown at 37 days on the Cruise Personalizer. Then after clicking on the "Manage this Booking" it shows the countdown is at 36 days.

Will watch for the other entertainment as sail date approaches. So far the 2 production shows are the only shows/entertainment on the app schedule for the theater in the evening.

The medallion app shows only two nights that have after dinner theater activities (production shows) for the upcoming AK season. Wondering if more activities/shows are added as sail date approaches (6 weeks out). Looking back at Princess Patters from last year's Royal sail, activities were scheduled in the theater all seven nights.
