Your outfit sounds perfectly acceptable! We know Nia from several cruises on Eclipse in The MDR. She was very good at discreetly enforcing the dress code. We found on our 6 day Edge from Vancouver, a few men in tank tops at lunch and shorts and baseball caps at dinner. She said that many suite guests have the attitude of they’ll wear what they want because they paid a lot for the retreat (that is my paraphrasing, she was much more diplomatic). Thanks for taking us along on your cruise!

There will be no immigration at Pier 91. Are you planning to use luggage valet? If so, you can generally be curbside 5-10 minutes after walking off the ship. If not allow time to collect suitcases. Your driver will not be able to pull up and wait for you (there is a designated area where those who obey the rules will wait until you text them) It took our driver 15+ minutes to get to us so don't wait until you are in the terminal to text 😆

There is a small library behind a cabinet in guest relations. Just ask! i managed to find 2 books.

Port Valet is also available for Edge sailings this summer. Walk right thru the terminal and to your transportation to the airport.

Happy late or early Anniversary! I Look forward to hearing how you like your MC SS, we have one booked in 2025. A couple things we learned in Luminae on Edge. The very front little room tends to be warm, we sat there day 1 lunch and didn't like it, after eating we made a lap so we could request a section in the future! The front 1/3 temp was good for us temp wise and a bit quieter. The back half got warmer and louder and smelled like food! Say hello to Nia (the hostess) from Danna and Bruce! Enjoy

Last week on Edge we filled in a form with crew names and position. When I turned it in to guest relations, the rep had me verify the picture of each person while she wrote down their ID number. She said the amount would go on the salary card. One of the individuals confirmed she will get the $ as long as the ID number is used.

We were also on Summit and now Edge. Quite a difference. Edge has a very shopping mall feel on deck 4 & 5. I attribute some of that to the cold days and everyone being indoors. Beautiful ship but some areas are louder and more crowded than I expected.

I would contact special needs department? Sorry on a ship and don’t have the info handy. Do you live in Folsom? We’re in EDH!

Just thinking out-loud here, according to his IG Captain Alex is currently on Edge as a guest. I wonder of there is any correlation between the Hawaii incident and Captain from the head office being onboard. My other thought was Captain Alex has Alaska experience or maybe just a vacation.

Its not a long walk unless you have mobility issues or if you are at Tuscan or Blu and realize you need a sweater 😆

Maybe due to the late arrival in Juneau, people were lined up to exit before the gangway was open. I am going to guess several hundred. After seeing the line, we realized that perhaps retreat guests had priority, thank goodness the concierge was escorting guests to a separate line. We had an independent excursion which accommodated our delay by picking us up at the AJ dock vs the tram.

Hi! We cruised a few times in the past on Eclipse together. Celia Garland is the naturalist for this cruise, I imagine she will be onboard all season. Her presentations have been in the Theatre. I know Milos sets up in the sky lounge, doesn’t seem like Edge has a spot for that.

Decks are wet, no rain just misty. Cloudy, foggy. We’re going 21 kts so definitely windy. Im sure if the sun was out people would be outside. We’ve been to Alaska several times, I think this week will be the coldest we’ve experienced.

I guess thats what happens with an early check in time. We’ve never seen that early of an option on prior cruises. Our time was 10:30. We left our room at the PP at 10:30 and were onboard about 45 min later, our room was made up but no robes, soap, etc…. We were surprised that the security was not separated by ship. Previously when boarding at Canada Place we were directed to to a Celebrity conference room thru the convention center, there was a Global Entry line for immigration in the past. Curious how long it took people who came after 11:30. First Edge cruise, it seems crowded because everyone is indoors.

Disembarked Summit, we are at the PP and on this cruise! Looking forward to cruising on a new (for us) ship.

Port side forward. We have smelled smoke on higher decks when the wind is blowing the wrong way 😣 Book starboard

Nice recap of the cruise! The cancellation of Catalina wasn’t about seasickness 😆 there was no way people could safely make it on to the tender boats. I’m not sure why we even stopped in Victoria, with the late arrival, it made no sense. And the late announcement was also a little strange.

If you have a reservation for 6,8 or whatever in specialty you’ll all be seated together. MDR is the only place where you’ll need to check in each night and give cabin numbers and names. Again, much easier for one person to do this than drag the whole group. Each time my husband went to check in for the group, he couldn't just give a number of people, he was asked who was dining.

We had a group of 8 on Eclipse (Dec 2022) upon boarding we all went to the MDR to be sure our reservations were linked. Each evening we would meet up at Cellar Masters or Martini bar and one from the group would check us in with the hostess and get a pager. The check in person needed the names and cabin number of those dining. After about 3 nights (11 night cruise) we had the same table and servers but also dined later. Since you already know times and who will be dining where and when you’re a step ahead 😆 perhaps can make a reservation when you board.

Galaxy was also C class. Century had an Escalator. I think Horizon and Zenith were The “class” prior to C.

Thank you. If I recall Uber has a separate pick up area at Pier 91. Do you know if that applies to Uber Black as well?

Looking for recommendations for car service from the Pier to SEA, not Uber/Lyft or taxi! Thanks

Looking forward to following along, we join Summit in LA to Vancouver then in Sept do the E Bound PC. Haven’t been on Summit for almost 10 years back when Captain Kate was at the helm!

Did one 7 day spring break cruise 8-10 years ago, we avoided the pool deck which was where most of the drunk young people were so didn’t impact us too much! Have not done a spring or 7 day cruise since! If Feb works, go then!

Have they given more information? Is the drink over the limit or if classic perhaps not included? Surely there are more details?
