We just got off a couple of weeks ago. We did three specialty restaurants. In order of my favorites:
1. Murano
2. The Lawn Club Grill
3. Tuscan
It does depend on what you are looking for however.

Are cruise begins in the US but ends in Vancouver. We will fly from Vancouver to Seattle and then to Boston. How many different immigration/security stops are there? Two in Canada (Getting off the ship and then again at the airport) and One in Seattle (At the airport)?
I am more concerned about the turnaround time in Seattle. I have a flight booked for 1:30 out of Vancouver. How much time do I need between flights in Seattle? This would be on a Friday in September if that makes any difference.
Thanks for your help.

We have taken our now adult children on various vacations when they were growing up. We did everything from camping to cruising, beach vacations, Disney World and Europe. They loved them all. We love the fact that they love to travel and love to explore the world. When we asked our oldest daughter to pick a trip for her family to go on she picked a cruise. She remembers the fun we had and wants to share that with her daughters. That is why people bring young kids on Celebrity. I am a Celebrity Loyalist and would love for my granddaughters to love it too. April can't come soon enough.

Thank you everyone for your help. We haven't cruised Holland America in 20 plus years so their process is new to us. You were all very helpful.

We are traveling with friends out of Fort Lauderdale on February 4, 2024. We received our boarding times today and theirs is an hour after ours. Do they pay close attention to the times? Would we be better off boarding with them at the later time? Thanks for your help.

My husband and I are on the Nieuw Statendam on February 4-11 of this year. When I look at the itinerary it shows every day as Smart Casual. Is this an error and will it change? This is only my second Holland America cruise and the last was over 20 years ago. I am trying to plan my wardrobe choices. 😎
Thanks,

I totally agree with you. I would choose Celebrity over Princess any day. Our cruise to Hawaii on Princess (Crown) in April was a huge disappointment except maybe one or two crew members. The overall vibe was totally different.

In Massachusetts there is a winter break in February but it typically is the third week in February. Spring break week is usually around Patriots Day in the month of April.
We have cruised several times during the first week of February (Husband's birthday) and it has never been crowded. The weather in the Caribbean is lovely. We are actually looking at the same cruise.

We were on last month and were able to do so. We had to ask for the menu.

Jim,
I just saw this. I am so far behind already and you haven't even left. We will be sailing on the same ship in February. I am anxious to hear how you deal with your transfers. Thanks for doing this again. I will be waiting for your great photos.

Thank you for all your replies. I booked thru a TA. He said he checked with Celebrity and they said only for 6 nights or longer. I will check again. Thank you all for your help.

Thank you everyone for your replies. I did ask about the B2B discount but was told it was only for six nights or longer. We are doing a 5-4-5. Thanks again. You guys are great.

My husband and I just booked three short cruises going back to back to back on the Summit.
I have a couple of questions for those who have done back to back cruises before.
I know there is a special procedure in between cruises where they will process us off and on the ship but how do they know we are doing a back to back?
Do i have to check in for all three cruises on the app? Do I take three different pictures?
Thanks for your help.

I received a post card type mailing on Saturday. I scanned the QR code and it gave me several options to choose from. I was able to select three. I had a confirmation by Monday morning. I am level Pearl in the Blue Chip Club, an Elite level cruiser and the last time I cruised was in November of 2021. I don't know why I was selected but I will gladly accept.

Thank you everyone for your replies. I was hoping I didn't need to carry a phone around with me. I don't mind using it to check in if it makes the process smoother. Thanks again.

I am sorry if this has been asked before. I noticed that we need to download the Celebrity App before we board. Do we need our phones for the entire cruise or is it just for check-in? Do both members of a traveling party need a phone or is one enough. Thanks for your replies.

No mirror. I forgot my makeup mirror too, so I'm kinda bummed.
Thank you for verifying. I will add it to my packing list.

Thank you for your review. I love hearing about other people and their adventures. I hope you continue to have a great time. I am planning a cruise for next November so following closely. I was wondering if you could tell me if there is a magnified mirror in the bathroom?
Thanks,
Karen

The lobster at Murano is wonderful and the service is first rate. The Lawn Club Filet was delicious. Tuscan Grill we really enjoyed the Lobster Rigatoni Alfredo, the Spumoni donuts and Zabaglione strawberry shortcake were very good.
