Our experience on Beyond May 5th - 12th
hcat replied to Gilliganluvsmaryann's topic in Celebrity Cruises
When we were at the Antigua port area, there were some nice shops walkable nearby, and craft vendors at the pier area. Has it changed? -
"Booze Package'...ouch! Celeb offers various choices for beverage packages...but not by the day, unless you choose to not select a bev package...Then you pay per drink. The packages include more than alcohol. You can weigh the options and select what best fits your needs!

Here's to HOME SWEET HOME! You did it! Just being home will make things easier! Hope you get some rest and do well with your recovery! -
We do the same....esp when we hardly ever receive upcharges for drinks above Classic..like Baileys!

Eurovision has been reported with some controversies, so maybe not pushing it on the ship. It is on ship's TV . In US it's on Peacock a paid streaming service. -
Live: Apr 20, 2024 Summit 14 Night Panama Canal Westbound Cruise!
hcat replied to mahdnc's topic in Celebrity Cruises
We did alot of roaming, distance walking, climbing steps, traversing uneven walkways, snorkeling etc, We def took more physically active excursions, when we were younger. . . Although we are still in fair shape now, we are def a bit lazier We have less energy/desire to "go go go", and prefer less physically active experiences. Half a day exploring is perfect with a return to A/C and a cold drink afterward! -
Impact of death of spouse before upcoming cruise
hcat replied to jimb cruisin's topic in Celebrity Cruises
OP Sorry for your loss. I hope you enjoy the cruise with loved ones around you to share memories, and create new ones . Always nice to get "on line" opinions but in this circumstance, and without having a trvl agent, it sounds like you should communicate with Celebrity and the cruise insurer (in case coverage can be applied). It's just finances and paperwork now that you have chosen to cruise. -

hcat replied to mahdnc's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Would be fun but we stick closer to home these days for our adventures! That's why I enjoy all these "live from" reviews so much! We enjoyed Hawaii but it felt so far away and remote.... We prefer Carib ports which are a short flight from home if an emergency arises. -

Fractured leg on Beyond; Need Disembarkation Information
hcat replied to helen haywood's topic in Celebrity Cruises
we always use a porter..they gather the luggage and smooth the way out either to taxi, your van ..etc Our last porter wheeled everything to our car up in the parking lot for ASCENT. and loaded the luggage. He was great! Def beg for earliest tag..your case was a med emergency not just someone who needs the wheelchair. Time is of the essence to get home! -
Fractured leg on Beyond; Need Disembarkation Information
hcat replied to helen haywood's topic in Celebrity Cruises
not sure..but I'd get to the wheelchair area on 5 as early as possible..with your stuff. Husb can grab some buns/ coffee from Cafe baccio..and bring it to you. We have observed many wheelchairs lined up for the escort off early on! -

Fractured leg on Beyond; Need Disembarkation Information
hcat replied to helen haywood's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Once you get home you will probably be mostly off your feet except for dr visits and bathroom/ showers.. So hope a good plan gets you home safely. My friend slipped and fell at her golf clubhouse, suffered a bad ankle break, and had to stay off her feet with the broken ankle area raised above her heart. Long ordeal and recovery but she got through it, had surgery, and rehab and is now walking and golfing again! -
Any pics of the dress up? Sounds like fun Congrats on the new booking!
-
Agree it was a great tour other than the worms! I have issue with heights so would not have done well at several points along the way!
-
small bar..drinks, coffee and water. no snacks
-
Popular ships for charters are always a rusky booking! But would rather lose the cruise than sail with a large group we are not part of. on board!

Agree with many of your comnents about E Class....Our biggest disappointment in finally cruising in RETREAT class ( BEYOND) was LUMINAE.. Cold food, squishy shrimp, disappearing bread server, uninspired menu .Dark environment. On Ascent, we were happy back in AQ class with BLU. We did enjoy EDEN and othe specialty venues but found the ship crowded... too much sports during the day in indoor spaces and the roof garden ..loud music at the outdoor pool. Fewer calm and quiet areas WE are looking forward to Silhouette..Hopefully, .maybe more like the orig X experience.
