Preacherman46 Posted March 20, 2021 #227 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Are there going to be special flight rates or flight inclusive rates for June Cruise, or cruises out of St. Maartin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you are referring to Flights By Celebrity, you can probably do a mock booking to ascertain that information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The email from Celebrity includes this paragraph: Take advantage of special air and sea pricing offering exceptional savings on all Summer 2021 St. Maarten sailings starting at $1,999* per person for a veranda stateroom. The offer applies to new bookings and flights must be booked through Flights By Celebrity and prices include airfare taxes. No promotional code is needed. Does anybody have any insight as to whether this is supposed to mean that airfare is included with the cabin pricing? Or just that there is special airfare pricing available as an add-on and that the special airfare pricing includes airfare taxes? I could read it either way.

More than half the kids opted for full time remote learning. Some classes she only has 4 students physically in the classroom. Despite this her school was just shut down for the third time due to outbreaks. Principal, head custodian and a teacher all very sick. Fortunately she just received her first shot.

39august Posted March 20, 2021 #238 Share Posted March 20, 2021 You can get much better information by calling Celebrity Air at 800-533-7803 than by using the web site. However, you probably can't get air information for St. Martin until bookings open Mar. 25. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF you have a current reservation and IF you access it through your cruise personalizer, you can look at flight options for that sailing only. But you cannot look at potential flight arrangements on FlightsbyCelebrity.com, neither for a booked sailing or a potential sailing, unless it is with Azamara or RCCL. Likely just a weekend glitch, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tallyho8 Posted March 20, 2021 #241 Share Posted March 20, 2021 There are not enough scheduled airlines to St Martin to accommodate the number of people who would be on the cruise and besides there are many dates the cruises start or end that there are no scheduled flights. I am sure that this is why Celebrity is going to charter a few planes for these dates and make the rates inclusive. $1999 may be high for a balcony but when you figure the cost of another flight for you would be around $600 or more that makes the cruise price only $1399 or less.

As I said in an earlier post, no flight details are available for the Millennium yet because the cruise itself isn't available on the website for booking. Flights for cruises currently offered are available for browsing, whether or not you have booked the cruise. You simply need to do a search for a cruise and then follow the View Itinerary & Flights link instead of the Book Now link.

Rare Ken the cruiser Posted March 20, 2021 #244 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I know some folks have expressed concern about unvaxinated children being allowed to sail on one of these first Millennium cruises. OTOH after all that has happened this past year regarding COVID in general, I'm trying to figure out why any parents would feel the need to place their unvaccinated children in harms way by being around other unvaccinated children on one of these first cruises sailing out of St Maarten? 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is true, however, there are and have been exceptions to this. I have 2 kids, both adults now, but if I were planning a cruise under these circumstances the last thing I would selfishly do, and yes IMO, it is selfish, would be to bring them on a cruise ship. We have come to far in the past year to start this, let it play out a while longer, it will get better. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is in my area. Just followed the Global News report at St Sofia's in Mississauga....report of 3 teachers in hospital, several staff. However, news not released re teachers' status. Hopefully the 'fighting for life' is not an actual report. I pray for them. DD is a teacher in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
