Thanks for your help!! I figured it might not be able to be accessed right now with the website update (that seems to be taking longer than anticipated). We fly out tomorrow. Hopefully we can get it done before we leave!

Can anyone tell me where I find the xpress pass? I see on our documents that it needs to be printed and brought with us but I don’t see where it has been emailed to us? We got the Guest Ticket Booklet with the luggage tags attached but I don’t see anything about the xpress pass anywhere. Thanks in advance!

Finally spoke with them! Received the same general info even though the website seems to say differently: any cruises leaving from US and Europe do not require vaccinations. Thanks guys!

OK, I hesitate to even post this here. I am having difficulties getting through to Azamara, I’m sure partly due to the launching of their new site. However, without getting into the weeds, and without everyone’s opinions, we need to know, is there currently a Covid vaccine requirement or not? We leave next week, and were under the impression that there was no requirement after December 1, 2022, particularly on cruises that visited countries where vaccines and testing were no longer required. Which ours falls under. Now I feel like I am seeing conflicting information. Can someone clarify?

Thank you so much for such a fantastic review! We are boarding on April 1, 2023 and really appreciate the time you took to write this up. Gives us a good idea of what to expect.

Hi Don, Sorry, maybe I miscommunicated. We get on the ship in Rome (Civitavecchia) and we will be spending a couple days in Rome ahead of time. So because of that, in the second part of that post, I was asking about transportation from Rome to the cruise port. Being an Azamara newbie, I wasn't sure what the best options were. Thank you for taking time to reply!

This actually sounds amazing and so much better than music onboard that could happen any other night!

Does Azamara still provide shuttle service to town from cruise ports? This was one of the major reasons why we booked with Azamara because my mother has mobility issues and then after our booking the fine print mentioned that shuttles may be suspended due to covid. This seems a little odd/off to me, what is the difference between offering excursions where we shuttle together vs the complimentary shuttle to town? Maybe we won't even need a shuttle though? I haven't been to any of these particular ports. Our cruise is April 1 Rome - Athens on Pursuit. The ports are Rome, Sorrento, Amalfi, Siracusa, Argastoli, Olympia(Katakolon), Chania/Crete, and Athens. Also, does anyone have any suggestions of getting from Rome to the cruise port? I've come to realize it is over an hour away, if not almost 2 hours.

Is there at change that our Destination Celebration in Sorrento could get changed to an Azamazing Evening still? Our sailing is April 1 from Rome - April 8 in Athens. We were hoping to have a fun evening off the ship, but if not, we will go with adjusted expectations. We are Azamara newbies (my mom's first cruise ever) and were definitely looking forward to this activity.

Hi all, I read on here somewhere that we were supposed to be given beach towels to take in port with us in our staterooms the night before we dock. So we didn’t bother packing any. We never received any and neither did our young adults in a separate room. When we got back to our room last night I thought hmm maybe they’ll be delivered in the morning. Nope. Then unfortunately I totally forgot in the hustle and bustle to check so now we’re sitting at the beach with no towels. Any idea what the deal is or where we can get some for Grand Cayman tomorrow? Second question is I took my credit card off the young adults account and had them add theirs. Now they all have charges of $100-200. I’m assuming these are just holds on their accounts to be sure Celebrity gets their money at the end of the trip. Can anyone validate this? Oh I also had read about an unofficial tea time? In Oceanview? We tried to find it yesterday but never saw it…

Sorry, I made that way more confusing than necessary 🙂 what I meant was what makes the one that you mentioned, the Sunken Ship and Snorkel, better than the Grand Cayman Snorkel?

Just curious what makes this one better than the better of the other two (“Grand Cayman Snorkel” as mentioned above)? I am happy to book it but wondering what the differences might be. You seem to have the experience!

Have the leaves started to change? We are hoping to book a Canada/New England cruise next fall and would like to try to book around when the leaves start changing. We’re in Virginia and the leaves are just starting to change here. I would assume it would happen a little earlier there?

I get probably 2-3 per day as well. I will say it did hook me into booking Celebrity in the first place though so it must work sometimes ha!
