On our TA this spring, we met a sweet young couple. She was in a cast to mobilize her hand, which the doc on the ship believed could have a hairline fracture. She was told it didn’t show up on the x-ray, but was advised that the portable x-ray machines on the ships aren’t as accurate as one in a hospital. She was advised to get an x-ray as soon as we got to Italy. Hopefully all went well for her. If this was accurate info she received, it’s possible that the x-ray machine on Brilliance wasn’t as accurate either. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Glad your friend had insurance. 🙂

Thanks @twangster and @Hoopster95, for the great running commentary. Thanks @Biker19 for adding info on my questions about the electric cars. 🙂 You have me so excited for our 14 nights on the Celebrity Apex next year. Hope your journeys ahead are great ones! 🙂

Poor sweetie! Hoping the vomiting has stopped, and he is on the road to recovery. 🙁

@Biker19, appreciate the additional info. 🙂 Early in his work career, Ken managed an electric golf cart fleet, so he sees conservation of the charge as a challenge. And like @twangster he will try to see how much he can “recharge” going downhill. I envision looking like @Hoopster95’s dog video…and like this at the end. 😂

@Hoopster95, thanks! I’m 5’10” myself, and weigh less than that so we should be good. Sold Ken on it with the video shared in this thread, and now just to decide which to choose. The 2 hour or the 3 hour. Thanks much to you and @twangster!

Thanks a bunch! 😁 We are both tall and Ken is envisioning driving with my legs flung up over his shoulders from behind. I’m game if he is. 😉 😂

@twangster, and @Hoopster95, thanks so much for the great photos/videos and taking us all along. Quick question on the Twizy in Geiranger. How was the fit for the back seat rider?

I’m sorry, JC. And I agree. Say what needs saying. No one is promised another chance to do that.

What @Another_Critic said. Before the latest update to match status, when we became Diamond, Celebrity automatically updated us to Elite. We didn’t have to ask, even though we were first matched when we were a lower category.

I, and some others, have had this issue here too. Screenshots were what I do when I’m sharing a photo. Only an issue here on CC for me. 🙄 Enjoying your Live. 🙂 We love Alaska, hope you guys will feel the same.

I can’t answer that question specifically, but if it works like the % off the premium drink upgrade benefit, you have to call in and speak to a rep to get it.

Boy, this thread really separates the “glass half full” from the “glass half empty” folks. 😂

Here you go. Zoom in. 🙂

Maybe not to you. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Those exceptions don’t surprise me. I’m just glad to get some of the onboard “amenities” afforded Elite+, since it will be at least 3 - 4 years before we actually get to E+, points-wise. 🙂

Just checked our Celebrity account after getting the email. We already show as Elite+. 😁 Pleasant surprise.

Le Voyage and Eden are both excellent for celebrations. 🙂

Normally, cruise insurance covers actual cost of a booking. For example, if a cruise cost $5k, that is what is stated on the policy. If the cost of the booking increased thru a RU, which you bid on, not your TA, I believe you would probably have to request the TA to increase the insurance coverage on the booking. Sounds like this is one of those things that fall thru the cracks, unfortunately. We have annual insurance ourselves. I wouldn’t have thought about the adjustment in coverage either. 😕 I hope your mom has a full and swift recovery.

Ours is the end as well. We are on Wonder.

Our January 2025 cruise opened about a month ago. Should be anytime soon for you. 🙂 I found ours to be later than previous cruises. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Got mine within 15 minutes of watching. 😂

I would keep checking. Our dining didn’t populate until about 10 months out for cruises we have booked next January and February. Enjoy your cruise. We loved Odyssey. 🙂

I have seen similar (but not such a low price), and has been mentioned, usually that is for cabins where RCI chooses your cabin. There have been times that the category selected is gone by the time I click thru the process itself. There is no recourse if the category is already gone, even if the website hasn’t updated the pricing on the first screen.

We did embarkation day specialty dining lunch on Odyssey recently, so I know it can be booked. We booked in advance, when there was a sale. The lunches are less expensive than dinners, and at times, you can grab a nice sale.

Sigh. I miss the Tutti Salads! And thanks to you, Laura and anyone else for keeping us up to date thru this stretch. 🙂
