Cruisingrampy

Looking to get opinions on best room for a scandanavian cruise? Is a balcony worth it since youre stopping basically everyday?

Probably get more feedback if you listed the ship(s) you might try.  Big difference between the bigger and smaller Royal ships.  

Sorry my bad. So.for reference i just got off the apex and the cruise im looking at is on the anthem.of the seas

Only have cruised celebrity before and really enjoy it. But looking at a transatlantic on royal caribbean next year. What are the major differences ill notice other than size of the ship

We are flying US to Vancouver on Friday, April 22 and staying 1 night in Vancouver prior to an April 23 Celebrity sailing to Hawaii. 
 

Does anyone know if the Walgreens drive-thru Rapid NAAT (takes 2 hours for results) will work for entrance into Canada? Getting the PCR test that takes up to 2 days for results makes things tight for our flight and then we’d likely have to test again in Vancouver for Celebrity. 
 

I would love to be able to time it so we could take just 1 COVID test that would cover both our Canadian entrance and Celebrity. 

Any tips or suggestions are immensely appreciated. Thanks so much 

 

As of april 1st you will no longer need one for entry just cruise

yup, used them in September and my parents used them in November.  I will be using them in May if we still have to have a test to get on a ship as they are the least expensive place here for an Antigen test.

How long did tesults take

Since i wont be using my switch health kits to get on the ship.anymore haha has anyone used this place

Seems bizzare the test is ok to enter a countrt but not board a ship haha. 

I know its been asked a million times but forgive me i cant find it. Does celebrity allow the switch health test as an approved test

I missed my afternoon coffee, and possibly as a result, I'm missing the connection between events in Ukraine and work conducted in the passport office.

I just think their priorities would be issuing visas to ukarainians  rather than the passports for leisure travel

Kinda thinkin this war thing might slow down my passport...

Would you even wanna support russian torism at this point? 

?

I have a confirmation email sent to me.through the TA but should i get a confirmation email from celebrity as well? 

Anyone rennew their passports recently? Curious how long it took. We sent ours in 2 or 3 weeks ago and our cruise is due in april. Ps not near any walk in oassport place just mail in

Update got my FCCs and credit card refund within 1 week

I orderd the rapid antigen test today with 2 tests in it and registerd. Does my wife need to register or do i just add her as a dependent

If you cancelled under the CWC plan, you should be refunded the taxes and port fees back to your card. The actual cost of the cruise only should be as FCC. I cancelled under the CWC rules on Jan. 3. On jan. 20 I received part of my port fees and taxes on my Visa.  About Jan. 30 I received my non-refundable deposit back as FCC. Much more FCC to come. If I don't hear more from X by 45 days past my cancel date, I will contact my TA and ask him to follow up. 

So i paid the full amount and cancelled under the impression id get the full amount back as fcc. Today i got fcc for 265 dollars. Far less than the amount i paid 

Is it just the deposit that is issued as credit and the rest a refund?

Without knowing exactly what they said, it’s hard to know how to clarify anything for you.

 

When did you cancel it? Have you seen a credit show up on your credit card?

Nothin on my cc cancelled about 3 days ago. They said it could take about 45 days. But i thought itd be issued back as cruise credit so i could book another

I cancelled an upcoming cruise in april. I was under the impression after final paymemt its issued as a fcc. But i talked to.celebrity and they made it sound like it would be refunded to my credit card? Can anyone clarify

?

Did they have the testing provided by Celebrity or did they go off and get their own test? Several Celebrity agents told me that as long as the test was provided by the company they hired to do it, we would be covered if we tested positive. 

I talked to celebrity directly lastbweek they said once your off the ship it is not covered

Anyone eaten here? Hows the food or is it more for the experience?

If i were to cancel after final payment and wanted to bookk a different cruise how long does it take for the fcc to.show up in my account

Personally im havin a beer in my hand all day so the drink package is worth it for me

Probbably 8-10 a day
