lola2013 Posted September 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Good morning, I have just booked my first (and hopefully not last) B2B on Silhouette for 2024. On the turnaround day, I would like to leave the ship, meet up with relatives who live in Ft. Lauderdale for lunch, and then return to the ship for the second leg of the trip. I presume I will need to do check-in for both legs; once I return to the ship, what can I expect? I presume I will need to stand in line and do the entire check-in process, etc. Anything special I need to know? This cruise will happen (fingers crossed) after Covid testing is just a memory. Thanks, Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gold1953 Posted September 12, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 12, 2022 You will receive info on the procedure before the end of 1st cruise. How you will be processed will be explained . It may mean a meeting with the group and a walk on and off. You will not need to stand in line with new cruisers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upwarduk Posted September 12, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 12, 2022 It’s a bit soon to speculate on procedure with regard to testing between cruises. There are loads of threads reporting on B2B procedure. Just do a search. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denny01 Posted September 12, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 12, 2022 You will be ‘checked-in’ on board and given a new pass and your previous on board charges (and OBC) will be closed. You’ll leave the ship, being in a US port, to go through customs and then can go off as if this is another port of call. You’ll be given a card/paper that identifies you as a B2B and you will just go through terminal security and go right back on board. No going through the Celebrity check-in and so on.

Denny01 Posted September 12, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 12, 2022 As to COVID Testing: Back-to-Back-Sailings Testing for back-to-back sailings is not required for all sailings. Guests will be notified onboard if testing is required and will be provided testing at no cost if needed. This back-to-back testing policy applies to any combination of sailings on any ships within the Royal Caribbean Group which includes Celebrity Cruises, Royal Caribbean International and SilverSea. Guests joining from other cruise lines not in the Royal Carribean Group family must follow all of our testing requirements in order to board our ships.

Denny01 Posted September 12, 2022 #7 Share Posted September 12, 2022 My ‘bet’ is if the two B2B’s are a week long (9N’s or less) that there is no testing for the 2nd as there isnt for the 1st, but if the 2nd is longer which requires testing, that would require B2B testing also. Just an assumption. Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted September 12, 2022 #8 Share Posted September 12, 2022 If you choose to leave the ship for a few hours at the turn, you'll be supplied a Transit Pass for quick reboarding. All of that will be explained in paperwork you will receive and at a meeting that will be held for B2B pax before arrival at the end of the first leg. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
