Noticed your favorite cruise line is Princess - if you are looking for a pizza parlor like Alfredo's, the answer is no.

You can get pizza on a Celebrity ship, but it's from a station located in the buffet area - nothing at all like the Alfredo's experience. 🍕

However, the Edge class ships do have many other great places to dine.

I will be trying the pizza in back part of buffet. This ship looks amazing and I am sure I will find some good food.  Is there a burger joint by the buffet or pool area.  I love a slice of pizza or burger while i sit at the pool   Cheers

Back of the buffet…pretty good and open late.  Was on the Apex in March. They would make you a fresh one if you asked..

Thank you for youranswer

Hi, I am thinking about booking this ship next year.  Does Apex have a pizza parlor onboard and if so, where is it located.  Thanks

in process now - both with AON (Princess Platinum) and with our Medicare supplement policy - I've been 'told' I had worldwide urgent care coverage with no deductible ... we'll see.

 

Also will file with AON for the deductible out of pocket costs incurred for follow-up's and testing when we got back to our regular providers at home.

 

hoping to get full refund - even if it's part on both policies

Good luck with all the claims issues.  Keep us posted to how the process goes and if you get 100% back.  Cheers

the cost (to us) for our medical records on REGAL (NOT-'rona related) was $28 - also charged to our on board account along with the medical expenses and all other shipboard charges.

will you file an insurance claim for these costs?

I am looking forward to your Pride of America cruise in November.  Cheers

Are they really that much higher or are the current prices bargins?

For some reason Delta is much higher than both American and Southwest

At least with Southwest your first 2 bags fly free

I get free bags with Delta, but Southwest does have a good prices

Have you checked what the airfare would be if you used Celebrity's equivalent of EZAir?

No I have not;  but will do that.  Thanks for the heads up

What a bummer.  You pay to go on vacation and are stuck in a room with little communications.  Hope things improve for you

Thanks for sharing your trip with us.  Your pictures are stunning and I loved the underground tour in Naples.  Your food pics onboard were great.  Have fun on your next cruise.  Were you overwhelmed by the sheer size of the ship?

The K95 Masks I wear have a warning on the package.  It states mask should be worn no more than five times before disposing.  So I wear a mask for about five days then switch to a new one.  

Thanks for the tips on metro mover, uber/lyft.  Did you use uber to the port?

I hope your airfare comes down before then as well. I wouldn't even fly to the moon for that price!

 

The thing that frustrated me the most was when I searched for the flights, with the exact flights chosen, the website was showing me the $300+ price, and once I selected both my flights and clicked next the fare jumped to double and gave me the reason that fares fluctuate often and quickly. I checked many different sites and they all pulled that same crap. I even had my friend try on his computer and same thing. I heard that if your computer knows you have been looking at the same flights/vacation often it will raise prices to make you think there is a high demand and you purchase. 

If you clear your cache out of your browser then the airlines don't know anything.  By clearing the cache on a computer and or browser you are basically getting rid of all your search history.  Cheers

I just looked up where this hotel is located.  Looks like a motel from the 1950's retro style.  I am staying a little closer to the cruise port

Yeah. My economy flight for the Sydney -> HK cruise is the same price as my 18 day cruise. 

wow that is tough to swallow

That is one of the main reasons Princess stopped using San Juan as a home port over a decade ago.

 

The high cost of getting to/from the port discouraged bookings from the mainland. As a result, the cruises were being sold at bargain basement prices to residents of Puerto Rico. Not a sustainable economic model for Princess.

Here is what I'm looking at.  Delta is my preferred airline and their prices are way to high.  American and Southwest both have prices in the mid $500 range round trip.  I guess I will wait a few more weeks to see if Delta lowers prices to match American and Southwest.  BTW, I am on a Celebrity Ship.  First time sailing Celebrity; my travel agent is taking my wife and I with them;  they want us to try Celebrity to see how we like it.  Thanks for your feedback about why Princess no longer sails out of San Juan

Has anyone ever stayed at the Vagabond in Miami, not fancy but great reviews and according to such reviews, very clean!

I have not stayed there; is this hotel across the street from Bayside?

Airfare was what killed it for me! I was this close to booking a cruise to Southern Caribbean out of San Juan. Last minute decided to check airfare and it went up from high $300 to high $600. No way! So we booked something that didn't require flying. 

I have a cruise booked out of San Juan for Mar 2023;  the airfare is around $1,900 per person round trip.  Hope airfares come down before I book something.  The above airfare is Delta; which is my preferred airline.  

Airfares are going up too.  

Happy 40th Anniversary.  I hope you guys have a wonderful cruise with lots of memories
