No, it isn't okay for very short hair either. For sure bring your own. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The process was very easy. Our boarding time was 12:30. Arrived at 12:17 and we were sent right in. First station checks your boarding pass, vaccination card, and negative test results. From there you go up the escalator for ship check in. They scan the boarding pass again, take photo if necessary, and give you your tracelet. Next you will scan the boarding pass one more time to get to the gangway. Entire process took us less than fifteen minutes. I didn’t think to elaborate at the time I posted this, but just remembered. If you are like me and love having digital copies of everything in one place, this may apply to you. The cellular service inside the terminal was horrible (at least with Verizon Wireless) and trying to connect to their WiFi in a timely manner was next to impossible. I would suggest printing copies of everything to bring with you. Your negative COVID tests, your boarding pass (although I saved the boarding passes to my Apple wallet and it worked fine). The CVS my health site took forever to bring up our test results and we easily could have saved time had we just printed them out. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I will watch these tomorrow. I appreciate the links! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to have a paper copy for backup, just in case my phone is lost or stolen, or the battery dies or I drop in and the screen shatters... you just never know when something like that could happen. And it is guaranteed to happen at the worst possible time. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofysmom99 Posted August 17, 2021 #360 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Another option is to print your docs as pdf files and store on your phone and your tablet. You don't need a connection and have a backup. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Donna gets her hair done for the cruise this Thursday so we're getting close. I get my haircut Saturday and get the car ready. Then next Tuesday are our COVID tests - that means we're really close. Other than that I've been having a lot of "Who's on first?" moments. I do know, though, that I won't tire of following your posts. They are a high point of the day. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very easy to feel spoiled in the cabanas. And I’m wondering if you get all the same stuff if you book a port day. When we booked port day/sea day pricing was $79/$199. On board pricing is $99/$249. If you get all this for $99 for the day…that is a pretty great deal. I’ll find out. How much are the cabanas?

JonnyCT81 Posted August 17, 2021 #370 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Hi there, appreciate your very thorough review so far. Have you been able to get a pax count from anyone on board? From your pool photos it looks pretty sparse. Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biscuitsandhoney Posted August 18, 2021 #371 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I see in the Celebrity app that gym reservations are required. Are you able to confirm that is accurate? Any idea if it is difficult to get a reservation to use the gym facility? Thank you! Lisa and Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a guy in a yellow T-shirt wit he message “I pee in pool”. That’s not me, he’s an imposter.
