Pools on Equinox....
So it looks like there's a covered pool as well as an open pool area. To beat the crowds, is a morning swim in the pools possible? Can you do that first thing before breakfast? Are teens allowed in the indoor pool? What about sunset or nighttime swims?
I believe the Solarium is adult only. The only time this is not true is on an Alaska cruise.

Welll we are Linda and Joe and we do live near Clearwater, but we don't go to G Bellini's. Sorry [emoji52]

A drink would be great - we are not stalkers :). It may not have been G. Bellini's. Is Joe a golfer? You can respond to ExBartender67@gmail.com.

Now looking at booking a cabin on the hump on deck 7 or 8. We have had terrible noise from the Centrum on RCCL ships and wonder if we will be ok on the Equinox. Is an angled balcony just forward of the hump quieter than just aft or no difference? Thanks !

Quick Question - Are you Linda and Joe From Clearwater area? Did you frequent a restaurant called G. Bellini's ? If so, we know you and will be on the same cruise - hump cabin on deck 7

She set the trans Atlantic crossing record and never fired up her fourth boiler!!!

Don't you just wish that all ships, like most public places, including hotels were "NO SMOKING?"
It's such a disgusting habit and people who smoke don't even realize how badly THEY smell.
Carnival tried that several years ago and it was a failure.

Since Celebrity is listing the 5/26 sailing as a Memorial Day cruise, does anyone know if they have anything planned?

What do they call the fee if your wine has a screw cap?
And before criticizing screw caps remember that some of the finest wines now come with a screw cap. I tended bar for 25 years including an exclusive resort in Florida) and remember being told" if wine had been created today, cork would not have been the stopper of choice".

Thanks for adding another list. Anyone looking at it please bear in mind that this is from an Australia/New Zealand itinerary and may not be correct for other routes like Europe or the Caribbean.
I wonder if the prices quoted are even in US dollars as they are different to what is stated on other routes.
I would love if someone on a Caribbean cruise could obtain this same list.
-
same here, love that you can still order them for Celebrity and not waste my color printer to print them off. Ordered them for our April 15th Summit
I print mine myself and use my laminator to cover them. I don't think a few cents worth of ink is such a big deal!

I just looked on the Equinox schedule and there are only 3 cruises from Miami this summer- two in June and one in August. One basic word to know is HOT.
The Caribbean ports are extremely hot in the summer- microwave oven hot!
There will also be lots of families with lots of kids on board. This means - well, you know.
I don't think you can get a good comparison of two lines at the busiest time of a limited schedule.
Equinox is great. I have sailed RCL a few times and greatly prefer Celebrity in every aspect.
Whatever you decide - enjoy!
I am booked on the Equinox out of Miami - 9 nites leaving 5/26

St Maarten, Americas Cup Sailing
You can only book it though the ship
St. Thomas, Fury Charters. Snorkeling
with turtles. Non ship excursion
You can find both online and they are both excellent ;)
I have done the Americas Cup twice - best excursion ever.

Sailing on Reflection on March 11 in a S2...wondering about the iPod dock whether it will handle the latest iPhone models?
Sent from my iPad using Forums
From what I have read on other posts, there is no iPod dock. Can't imagine Celebrity or any other line would provide something for such old technology

Try posting this on the ports section of the forums. Each island is listed separately under the Caribbean link and I'm sure you'll find answers to your questions there.

We have booked the Atlantis submarine in Grand Cayman and the Sunset Catamaran in Aruba. Does anyone have comments about these excursions?
Also, any suggestions for things to do in Bonaire and Curacao. We were thinking we might rent scooters and see the islands on our own, with a stop along the way for lunch. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Any book about the Titanic - or about ships lost in the Bermuda Triangle :D

Thank you! Our bourbon of choice is Makers Mark which used to be on the classic package. I see now it isn't even on the premium package. Disappointing but we will make do!
I agree - I too will make do - can't see spending another $200 + to upgrade

Jim Beam and Jack Daniels
The "official" list of brands can be found here:
Jack Daniels is not a bourbon

I did NOT know THAT!!
Been there but wife will not do it - told her she had to buy her own drinks!!

The Garden of Eden bar? Remember seeing the 'clothing optional' sign outside many years ago.
Top floor of a bar with four names

Can I use my on board credit to pay my gratuities?
-
I have on board credit, but was forced to use my Amex card to pay for excursions. Celebrity tells me after I get on board, to cancel my excursions and then re-book using my credit. Seems like a crazy way to do things

Does anyone know what the chair / lounge arrangement is in 7264? Is it possible to tip the steward (which I do anyway) to get chaise lounges?
-
Thanks for the info. Will be on the Equinox on 5/26. I learned more about the show times, etc. than I could learn on Celebrity's web site.
I did note that one evening in the martini bar has an introduction to Ultra Premium martinis. As a retired mixologist, this might interest me. Just not sure it should be at the same time as the LGBT social hour.

When I traveled to Costa Rica - I saw something on the government web site that you should leave your passport in your hotel save and only go on excursions with a copy. We were stopped on the road in Costa Rica by the federales and they accepted the photo copies.
This is from the state department]

It was the Windmill - in Nags Head. Unfortunately it closed many years ago and was burned down as part of a fire training.
They had the ship's bell,, as well as the bar. The seats had name tags for such celebrities as JFK, Jackie O and Marilyn Monroe.
