  1. Has anyone disembarked from the spirt from one of the last two cruises. What time did self Walk off actually begin and what time did normal walk off with sending the luggage the night before begin. Sailing next Wednesday and for the third time our flight home has been canceled already on aug 5 and there are not very good options left.  Trying to determine how early the flight could be.

  2. FYI On the apex now. There has been a covid outbreak among the crew. Crew members affected have been  transferred to the infinity. For a 10 days The whole production cast left on Saturday.  Also include were nine butlers in the retreat. We do not know total numbers as the ship itself has yet to knowledge this. Information is from individual crew members as service this week has been slow. This also will affect next weeks  transatlantic.

    FYI We were on this sailing. Not one notice about this onboard or no communication since leaving the ship.  

     

    overall a excellent experience. No surprises. All went as expected as for the rules and the changes because of “Covid”. Entertainment in the main theater was a bit lacking. All specialty restaurants were up to standards except one night in chops where they seemed to be having a issue cooking to correct temperature. Almost every order went back from everyone in the restaurant when we were their. Staff was excellent. Checker the concierge provided his excellent service. We received the proper c&r amenities upon boarding in the staterooms. Both diamond plus and pinnacle had lunches on the last day. Officers gave a quick toast and left. We will answer any specific questions anyone has. Happy sailings to everyone

    masks everywhere except stateroom and pool area and eating and drinking. We are at chops last night and did not wear a mask while seated.

     

    if you show a negative test you don’t need to be tested upon arrival in Cyprus.  If not you will be tested at the airport. It appears that COVID   is getting worse now as of last Friday the rules changed and just eat at a establish but you need to show a negative Covid test or  vaccination card.

     

    dining is with your party only

  5. Just boarded the jewel and sailing in a suite. Flight from the US through London to Cypress  leaving  the US needed to show a negative Covid test the UK transient documents and Cyprus travel pass. Going through Heathrow did not have to show  any documentation. Landing in Cypress we had to show a negative Covid test and the travel pass. I thought since we were vaccinated we would have to show just a vaccination card. They said on the aircraft that if you did not have a negative Covid test  you’ll be sent for one as soon as you arrive. When we arrive to check in for the cruise the time from leaving the cab to boarding the ship was an hour and 20 minutes. It took about 25 minutes to get the results of the Covid test. The ship is sailing at about 20% occupancy for about 420 people. Everyone on board is really excited to welcome the guests. if you are in a suite  the happy hour concierge‘s club drinks do not count against your vouchers if you’re in the diamond club drinks do count against your vouchers. I will be happy to answer any questions anyone may have.
