cherylroslyn Posted June 13, 2012 #28 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Thank you for your review and all the scans. I'm sure it took quite a while to compile the information in such an organized fashion. Your review was very good. It is such a shame that the transportation workers in Bermuda are either treated so bad that it necessary to disrupt or that they chose to do for some unknown reason. I am not really up on the specific issues, but I do know that we had a looming strike last year around the time of my cruise as well and that was early May. My sailing was also effected by the workers, as a strike ended the day we were pulling in to Bermuda and it caused such huge delays because the passengers from the NCL ship, that had been there overnight could not get out to the towns and beached prior to our arrival at 1:00pm. So when the strike finally was settled all the passengers from both ships flooded the dockyard....there was simply no way to accomodate the huge amount of passengers, and it left a bad taste in the mouth of many people on both shisp......... I personally had been to Bermuda many times, so I hadn't really planned on going anywhere on the first day because it was a short day with the 1:00 pm arrival (Repositioning Cruise April 28, 2012) but for those on the other ship and on our ship that did want to venture out.....the situation was a disaster..........

jgnova Posted June 14, 2012 Author #29 Share Posted June 14, 2012 For those of you who need to see an "official" version of a review as published by CC, they've posted my review here. I think the version I posted on my page looks better since I can format it better, but each to her/his own. :) j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseacecat Posted June 14, 2012 #30 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Sorry but she gets off the Summit on June 24 and heads to an Alaska Celebrity ship. I do not know who is replacing her. That is a real disappointment. She leaves the day I board. Bummer:( Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

165 Valley Posted June 15, 2012 #32 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Thank you so very much! I'm going on the Summit next August (2013), 2nd time on Celebrity (first time on the old Meridian, now retired). Your postings are just incredible, and I am already looking forward to sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare richstowe Posted July 21, 2012 #33 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Thank you so much for providing current menus and daily programs as well as a great review for the Summit. This will be our first cruise on a more upscale ship and we are greatly looking forward to it. Actually the menus are a bit scary in that there were 2 or more starters,mains and desserts I'd like to try at each meal. Time to start that diet now.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to start that diet now.;) There's no rule saying you can order only one item per course, nor do they act like your mother if you don't clean your plate. (Actually, the waiters and maitre 'd on that cruise did seem to take it personally if we left something. :)). So order what you want to taste and don't finish it. Or, if there's something a few of you want to sample but really want something else, then order one to pass around the table. We've done that several times. j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take the opportunity to ask if you ever used the " Stateroom Bar Setup"?. What size are the bottles and what comes with the bottle? Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What size are the bottles and what comes with the bottle? Thanx Nope - all I do with the mini-fridge is move things around to make room for the bottle/box of wine we bring. Maybe someone else here has ordered that. j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
