I agree with the advice above that your unexpired passports are all you need. And some additional advice - when you check in at the port, do not point out date of expiration to anyone ("whew, I was worried there'd be a problem").  If you mention it, an inexperienced agent could go off to investigate, and an hour later you are waiting for the chief document person.  Just say 'thank you' and then have a great cruise. 

Exactly, never make an issue of things you don’t have to. 

Does Club Soda work? Most bars will have that.

I can't believe you're not satisfied with one or two news stations, some form of ESPN that shows sporting events one never knew existed, a channel or two that show nonstop cartoons, an onboard infomercial, or the view of the ocean ahead.  What more do you need?

Live webcam from the bridge facing forward would be nice.  🙂

X IT probably got tired of resetting any TV that was reconfigured by the previous guest who had to watch their personal video programs. 

 

It just takes time to figure out what the previous guest has done to change the TV inputs. Why allow that voluntarily?

This is actually the best response here. Kudos.

Sorry my bad, I assumed it was clear enough from my question that I was the type who finds solace and pleasure in life only in geeky pursuits. I thought it was a given that  the most amount of fun anyone could have in a cruise was transforming the cabin into a man cave and fidgeting with the tv inputs and cables. I cannot thank you enough for opening my eyes to these unheard (by me) alternative ways of enjoyment, especially because they were so far outside the scope of my question. It's true, one never knows the wealth of incredible information that others are willing to go out of their way to provide. I feel truly humbled and blessed.

Who carries a wallet around the ship?  Not me…

Oh, the tragedy.

 

Suggestion?  Martini bar.

My thoughts exactly..maybe the casino 

I don’t see the OP being entitled to returned port fees myself..

Good work on getting more mobile though, I’m sure that wasn’t easy.  

I Thought they were expanding the pier, maybe room for two ships?  Anyone know?  I agree with the overnights here, very enjoyable. 

A for me..

No room in carry on for that, than you also need a pen 

Less space than a phone and charger. 🙂

I prefer the Sunset Bar…for everything. 

If you have a scooter, make it a small one and don’t run over people. 
 

Be nice. 
 

We’re all on the same ship. 
 

Sticky notes on cabin door work better..   🙂

Reading this makes me glad my Wife and I limit ourselves to 1 bag each…

I have cruised without using the APP, isn’t that still possible?  If so, you have a choice, update your relic of a phone, or do without it as many with newer phones do, like me. I don’t expect Celebrity to offer support for old technology.

So great to hear all positive opinions. I am on the phone now to book AQ. It is only $106 over my balcony price. Something to look forward to.

Thank you all.

Well worth it at that price, IMHO.

On Beyond now. Almost everywhere is too hot for us. Other than creaking and banging in our sky suite, it's pretty much our only complaint. HOT today in Antigua, even hotter yesterday in Barbados. I want to be cool while eating dinner after being outside most of the day.

Agreed…what do some of these folks keep their AC set on? I would be fine with 70 or so..

I know, I know you can’t please everyone.  

You can use your phone/tablet as much or as little as you want..

These are the same people who see a lane merging on the highway and fly up to the front knowing that someone will cave and let them in.  I am of the other type in that you will hit orange cones/barrels for 2+ miles before I let you in.  Unless of course you have your purple traffic royalty sticker issued by the DMV visible in the window.

It’s called zipper merge on the highways, and it works, look it up.

He was being tongue-in-cheek.  The point being that the less people know how good YC is, the less chance that prices will rise along with the increased demand.  

Good to know someone is paying attention. 🙂

My Wife and I both think it is too warm on the ship.  Obviously, we are in the minority.
 

The Casino Bar on Equinox is the only place I have ever found on Celebrity with superior AC. 

Stay away from the YC, I have been 3 times with another booked..it’s not good. 
 

re the smaller ships, I’d be bored stiff at night. I consider anything smaller than Equinox small..actually, that may be my favorite overall ship..

Versus being onboard with a bunch of drunk old people. Cheers. 🍻

I find those very different experiences…YMMV
