Yep, just like the rest of the world.

Just an update on the refunds for the B2B leg of the cruise that was scheduled for October 6. Celebrity has processed a couple more shore excursion and internet refunds and then nothing for a few weeks. I'm currently on the phone with the Engagement Department checking out the refunds. Apparently the rest of the refund was not automatically processed so the representative will process it manually. We'll see what happens in another 5 - 7 days.

If you look at the lines of teenagers on almost every attraction on a Royal ship, I don't think this happens very often.

That really doesn't do anything. I've had all 5 Pfizer shots and I caught Covid 4 days into my last cruise in October.

The sunscreen is always a big problem. Although some part of the sunscreen may stay on your skin, there is a portion that will dissolve into the chlorinated water.

Exactly my thoughts. See you in the hot tub. I'll be the one with the cold beer.

I vote no. I think he would like the Prima or one of the Oasis class ships on Royal a lot better. You likely won't have many more times you can cruise with your son, why not try to do something that he would really enjoy?

Everyone else got 3. Maybe they knew you weren't really listening to the webniar.

I agree that hot tubs can be a problem. I hate it when people don't shower and clean off the sunscreen before getting into the hot tub.

You would still be ahead but Covid got me kicked off a B2B last month.

🤔 So what's the problem?

Not a problem getting alcohol in the pools. I spend a lot of time in the pool and I've never had a problem getting a drink. Bottoms Up!

Congratulations, Welcome to the Club. Enjoy that second bag of laundry.

3 points for me 😀 Only 2206 to Zenith

This doesn't surprise me, no one is smarter than the people on CC. Just ask us.

Do you think the same people that are upset because people publish the answers to quizzes will object to this approach? Is there a difference?

That's not going to happen

How much should you compensate the Lyft driver for waiting an extra 2 hours?

Is Daisy picking you up at the airport?

Thanks for a great review. You're cutting a lot closer than I would. 10:48 getting through security and boarding 16 minutes later.

So, your solution for this is not tip so the service workers take home even less. Great plan. You may not like the system but that's the system that generated your cruise fare or the cost of your dinner as well as the wages for the service workers. Please re-think your position and consider tipping when it is expected.

Have you ever heard of the saying "When in Rome ..." Meals are a lot more expensive in the UK, the next time I visit London, maybe I should only pay what I would pay in the US.

This solves a mystery from our last cruise. We also had a package in our cabin without any instructions but we didn't do any additional investigation. It ended up in the cabin trash when we left.

Celebrity has started working on the refunds for my B2B segment that was scheduled for October 6. One of two shore excursions was refunded. Still waiting on another shore excursion, specialty dining, internet upgrade as well as the cruise fare and taxes.

Just tell me what's expected. If you want me to leave 18-20% in cash, I will. if you want me to add 15-20% to the bill and do the math, I will. If the restaurant wants to add 18-20%, that's fine I'll sign the bill. At least in the US, service has little to do with the tip, it's an additional charge that's expected. I'm not going to try and re-invent the system because I think it should be different.
