Lol - I read the headline as saying someone's grandad got sent to the brig.

The shaded portion is kind of like looking thru sunglasses. As best I recall its also a little reflective on the inside.

Just used Celebrity's luggage valet service in Seattle... free for suite guests... and it was great. Left the ship with a carry-on and will see our bags at our destination. At least that's my hope. [emoji1]

Free to suites? Does this include Sky Suites, please?Yes, it's free regardless of cabin category.

Thank you for the reply!
On our previous Alaska cruise our ship stopped about 4-5 miles away from Hubbard Glacier. We were very disappointed, especially watching other ships go WAY closer than us.
(That was on the Mercury.)
We've booked the excursion this cruise and would really hate to miss it.

I wonder if the excursion on smaller boat was able to go to glacier...
-
I expect you want this over on the Carnival board...
-
Oh yes, that would be lovely!

If it's just us girls, departure port proximity is 95% of the equation.
If with hubby, anywhere he wants to drive me or fly me, I'll go.

I wonder how difficult it would be too rig a way to run water into the large beach ball? Would help hold it down on the balcony.
(I used to take students on service trips. I'd take a beach ball and pillow case. Ball inflated inside case became my sleeping pillow. At end of trip ball went to a local kid and pillow case became my dirty clothes hamper.)

Actually, it IS hurricane season... 6-1-17 ~ 11-30-17.
I've cruised in October several times with no problem. The only 2 times we were delayed was when ship had a norovirus outbreak and we were about 36 hours late boarding and in Jacksonville a 6 (or maybe 8?) hour delay because of tides. (Ship can't go under bridge if tide is too high.)

I agree - when hubby and I started pricing out our upcoming cruise the prices just seemed higher than we wanted to spend and included some perks we didn't particularly want.
After trying out different pricing variations I found we could save about $700 by NOT taking perks and by using resident discount. (Senior discount was the same rate.)

We don't have any OBC but have booked an excursion for 2 @ $209 per person, paid by credit card. Invoice balance is showing as -$418.

The table numbers usually rotate after each sailing.
I've never heard of this... why would they rotate table numbers?

Reality is you only get so many times to experience these events. Take what you get, enjoy it. we will be on legend off vancouver island heading back to seatte. Already has glasses in the suitcase ready to go.
There is another eclipse in april of 2024 running up from texas through the great lakes and exiting through newfoundland.
i love this!

I just returned and took that excursion last week. We did not go into the Tracy Arm due to too much ice, but we went into the Endicott Arm and saw the Dawes Glacier which was amazing. I booked our excursion about two weeks before our sail date. I would suggest calling Celebrity and they can tell you how close it is to selling out. If it is a tour you are interested in I would go ahead and book it now, it is well worth the money.
Don't want to hijack the thread but did you feel like you got appreciably closer to glacier on smaller boat?
Our previous cruise on Mercury, ship stopped about 4-5 miles away from glacier (Hubbard) - it was quite disappointing.
We've booked excursion from Solstice in Tracy Arm hoping to get a little up close and personal this time :) .

'And guests are asked to follow the Smart Casual or Evening Chic dress code in the Celebrity Theater for all evening performances.'
Tiny excerpt from website dress code.
Although I doubt I'd fool with dressing up after dinner.

According to their website, they are not in Alaska.

Loving your review!
A few questions:
Post 50 re: Victoria
- what time of day were you there? (we'll be docked 6pm-12am and wondered if it's comparable).
- how many folks could you take for $95/hour?
Post 85 re: train. You mentioned going to restroom at Fraser... they do have restrooms on the train though, right?
Thank you!
-
Thanks y'all.
I completed checkin yesterday.
Printed out 11 pages...
Xpress pass was 4 pages, remainder was Cruise/Cruisetour Ticket Contract.
-
Does it specify filet mignon though? If it just says filet, it is probably a slice of sirloin.

Per post #11 Grilled Filet Mignon is offered on the children's menu.

It's been several years since I cruised on Celebrity...
Is E-doc different from Express Pass?
-
I'm not sure I understand the question...
If you can be somewhere non-cloudy that would help.
I don't know your itinerary but this link shows the path of totality.
Do i need rain gear in july/august in alaska?

You've convinced me!
Ordered the (squealing) cutest pair of Sloggers today. And they match my rain coat perfectly.
I didn't want to risk wearing damp/wet shoes and I think I'll be able to just dry these with a towel.
(That's my story and I'm sticking to it.)
