You may get an Organic wine in the MDR, but it is likely to be expensive or only available by the bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rslrhu Posted August 9, 2021 #1261 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Some pictures of her leaving Greenock tonight. So good to see the ships calling here again, and brought back some great memories of our last cruise aboard her. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we have a drinks package, we have often bought a bottle each (assuming can find an organic wine she fancies) and drunk them over a couple of nights. I think we do get some sort of discount on the advertised bottle price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our local Eurofins test centre was not listed and the closest was over 50 miles away. Called Eurofins customer service who I have to say we’re absolutely brilliant and they were able to book me and other half in at the local site (3 miles) for 25th August. If not sure give them a ring or email. Very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcw Posted August 11, 2021 #1267 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Hello everyone and to those getting tested today, good luck and fingers crossed. I hate to ask a question that has probably been asked and answered many times over, but this is my first Celebrity cruise and I wanted to check on plugs and charging options for iPhones. Are there ubs charge points in the cabins or do I need the American plug socket? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending upon the cabin there may be UK sockets All cabins have USA and European sockets. However, I would still take adapters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esprit Posted August 11, 2021 #1271 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) There are two USA sockets and one European socket which had the kettle pulled into it. They are all next to each other on top of the dressing table with the mirror in our stand balcony cabin (9268).

Lynnewob Posted August 11, 2021 #1272 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Just in case anyone is going for Eurofins testing at Birmingham Business Park, the address is 2010 The Crescent but the building is actually in Solihull Parkway on the edge of the Crescent. It is shown as Miso and no Mention of Eurofins so tricky to see off the main road. It's obviously rented office space. Hopefully this will help someone find it a little easier.

When we thought we had forgotten our adapter, our stateroom attendant started to tell us that if you left a deposit, you could borrow one from Guest Relations desk. At that moment we found our own.

*Fudge* Posted August 11, 2021 #1275 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Good evening, I read that testing is required mid cruise, is this correct and if a positive result is returned what would happen next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
