davekathy Posted April 21, 2018 #26 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Not all ships use the disembarkation form. It’s podsible to have cruises on Celebrity and not seen one. That's exactly what I was thinking. Even on our RC B2B cruises we haven't seen a disembarkation form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkjretired Posted April 21, 2018 #27 Share Posted April 21, 2018 They like you can suffer through the muster video a second time.;p Because the regulations from the government require it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerelmx Posted April 21, 2018 #28 Share Posted April 21, 2018 That's exactly what I was thinking. Even on our RC B2B cruises we haven't seen a disembarkation form. Last Eclipse cruise 03/18/18, I go to guest relations asking for the Celebrity bus to MIA, they give us that form to be filled up. It has a checkbox to mark if you are on the next cruise (Consecutive/B2B). 327 days for my first B2B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted April 21, 2018 #31 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Weeeelllll, not exactly. As seen on Princess, SOLAS only requires one muster drill AS LONG AS YOU DON’T CHANGE STAREROOMS. On two ten-day back to back cruises last month only one Muster was required. The Chief Safety Officer on Eclipse has confirmed that if there is no change of muster station, only one drill is required but they sincerely want all to attend two drills.

Good point concerning SOLAS. The word used on our recent Equinox B2B cruise was "mandatory". :confused: Two good examples of being consistently inconsistent between different ships in the fleet.

londonben Posted April 22, 2018 #34 Share Posted April 22, 2018 When you check-in at the port, is it just for the first cruise? Would we need to take an express pass for subsequent cruise/s? Thanks, Ben. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hydrokitty Posted April 22, 2018 #35 Share Posted April 22, 2018 When you check-in at the port, is it just for the first cruise?Would we need to take an express pass for subsequent cruise/s? Thanks, Ben. When you check-in on line you check in for both cruises separately. When you get the departure info form for the first cruise, check the box that says continuing or staying on for next cruise. You will receive an invitation to attend a meeting for all continuing passengers. GO TO IT!!! :D That's where get all the info you will need about getting a new sea pass, closing your OBC account and reopening a new one. X considers B2B as 2 completely separate cruises, not 1 continuing one.....but they make the process very quick and painless. Really all you must do is attend the meeting and follow the instructions, like meeting in the theater at a specific time (for us 10 a.m.) at which time you will have your sea pass invalidated and a new one issued and you'll then be able to leave the ship and return like in any other port. If you're keeping the same cabin, you need do nothing but you may not have access to it until after lunch. It really isn't as complicated as it sounds just remember to fill out the form and turn it in on the first cruise and attend that meeting! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az_tchr Posted April 22, 2018 #36 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Is it necessary to fill in the disembarking form on the first leg, and Mark as consecutive cruise? The US not longer has the customs form you are referring to. Relax. Nothing really to do. We have done 5 B2B and outside the US simply go to a meeting and get new seapass. If getting off and reboarding no need to wait in lines to check in just go to security. In US, a zero count is required so you go into the port for an hour or two. PS the lunch put on has always been lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted April 22, 2018 #37 Share Posted April 22, 2018 The US not longer has the customs form you are referring to. Relax. .... I don't think the reference was to any US Customs form, but to the Celebrity disembarkation questionnaire -- the one in which they ask what time you want to disembark on the final day.
