Doe ELITE and concierge still board before all expedited?  

The OP posted the boarding order in post  #135. I can tell you that on our Edge cruise last April, we had already checked in via the app, and we were booked in a Concierge cabin. On our cruise, people having mobility issues boarded first. Concierge passengers were called next😊

Thanks for Sharing!    New to Celebrity, will be on the Edge March 1st.  We booked very last minute at the Boston Travel Show, not knowing a thing about the ship except that it was fairly new and was stopping at Key West.   Excited to get your take on it.

Love your style!

Thanks for posting the staff sheet. I was very happy to see Julie Sherrington there. I hope she’ll still be aboard in May. She’s simply lovely, a bright spot wherever she goes. 
 

I hope you have a fabulous day in Key West!

What time does the boarding start?  I will be Aqua class and will check in on the App. I want to get on ‘early’ but don’t want to arrive so early that I have to sit and wait for hours. Thanks. I wonder if it depends on embarkation port?  We will be in Civitavecchia.

They started Concierge between 10:45 and 11. Aqua was called within a minute or so.

Love the review so far....esp Skydiving!

Good for you.,the shirt was perfect!

 

Seems AQ now boards after Concierge...to get the lunch going `???

Where was E plus in the mix?

 

Glad they supplied the Officer/ Staff spotlight. Easier than just on the TV screen.

Hope you get the  EDGE  Art  Book....will help with the amazing art!

Can't wait to hear about the music / shows!

 

So far the food, esp salad looks great!

Yay for you and the skydiving! I have to admit, when you were being sly about your Key West plans I thought you might be going to the clothing optional bar <g>.

Haha! Nope! I figured easier to not make my parents worry - tell them after the fact! Haha!

Key Lime Pie Co gluten-free pie is my reward for jumping!!

 

 

I am not sure if it is because we were an hour late docking due to some issue with a vessel in the channel or what, but we ended up docking right behind Margaritaville and the Carnival ship got Outer Mole!! Woohoo!! No shuttle for me!!

Now we understand your T-shirt’s message. I’m really enjoying your take on things. You are adventurous. Your students are going to like the “ flying” pictures too. ( I’m also a spec ed teacher, but subbing at the moment).

[Oville]

Wow you’ve had quite a day.  Love the pics.

After the pie, I decided to take the trolley tour - be low key for a bit. Came back on board and downed a water, a diet Coke, and a Lemonade Vitamin Water Zero and a little gluten-free falafel. Chilling in my cabin for a little while until we sail away. 

 

Tonight is Kaleidoscope - we'll see. As I said, I'm hyper-critical of theatrical productions. But I want to give it a chance.

 

Dinner tonight is in Tuscan.

Was the falafel from the OVC?

Yep! They had several kinds today - regular, Mexican, Indian, and Greek I think. I just went regular. Various types of hummus as well.

Boarding March 29th...good stuff so far.  Was that your first sky dive? They have a good website....I have always thought about it...

[Danstr]

Can you post pics of the dailies? Me and my crew are boarding the Edge on Sunday. Would be great to have recent dailies as a reference. Enjoying following along and looks like you're having a great time!

 

Thanks!

Yep! First one! They were awesome and made me feel so comfortable!! Had he asked I would have said no flips if we could help it, but we did a few and it was fine!
