Thank you all very much for your tip and helpful advice.:

Sorry I miss out the important details . We are on Infinity, Penthouse Deck balcony cabin. What does Penthouse Deck mean!! We are sailing out of Vancover to Alaska. Hope this helps with the answers I asked .

We are new to Celebrity, We have a few questions. First what time do they start boarding on the first day of cruise. Where do you eat the first morning/afternoon. Is there a kettle in stateroom to make yourself tea / coffee. Can you suggest a really nice place that was your favorite place to sit, have coffee or drink . Is there anything esle we should know e.g. Dress code, formal nights. Thank you in advance.:

Were we just unlucky but we are just off Navigator on Sunday and I have a few issues. Every time we went to eat in the Spaphire MTD restaurant we had to queue, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Sometimes 10 minutes sometimes longer, is this normal? The weather in Norway was awful, heavy rain cold and sometimes foggy. I am not blaming RCI for the weather, we have to get off the ship on deck 1. Not all the lifts went to deck1 so getting to the deck was not always easy, I can't go down stairs as I am in a wheelchair. I think because the weather was so bad people were not staying off the ship long at one time we queued for 40 minutes in the rain to get back on the ship. People were getting very short tempered with people with children and pushchairs thought they should have priority. I don't know if this is normal for Navigator or we were just unlucky. By the end of our cruise I was so cross about all the queuing I was thinking, why am I spending all this money to que, perhaps this will be my last cruise. What do you think went wrong.

Yes I would be very interested in what dress code was like on formal night. Thank you

We are on Navigator at the end of August and unsure what to do about formal clothes. Last time we were on a cruise not many people bothered to dress up. So now do we bother to take our formal clothes or not?

We are on Navigator at the end of August, we have never sailed on this ship so I thought I would ask a few questions. First on first day when joining the ship where can we eat :)lunch. I am not a fan of the windjammer is there anywhere esle we can eat? Is there a nice bar not to crowded in the evening for a per dinner drink. Any places that might be missed if you don't know about them?:)

We are leaving tonight for our flight to Newark Airport and we will see if we make Boston for our cruise tomorrow 5.00pm. Before anyone jumps up and down and says we have not left enough time, I agree. There are 4 of us travelling and all have commitments to fill so I want you all to cross yours fingers and hope for the best. We have looked at the advice and hope to be in Boston tomorrow after noon. Dont forget USA is 5 Hours behind UK.

Thanks for all your help and advice.

Hi, we are leaving Boston on Brilliants on Sunday going up the Coast towards Canada. Has anyone any idea of the weather there is time of the year. We are from England so have no idea what to back. Just brought a new fleece jacket and raincoat, will DH need shorts and sandals.

It is 2 or 3 years since we last cruised has the coffee they serve in the dinning room change, as we never liked what they served the last few times we were on the a cruise,

WE are leaving Newark early Sunday morning, depending on how quick the hire car company are at dealing with us.

Since I asked a few weeks ago how long it would take to drive from Newark Airport NY, to Boston Cruise Port I have hardly slept. I think that most of the replies pointed everything that could go wrong how bad the traffic was and that we should not have done this. Please can someone point out something positive about what we intend to do that would set my mind to rest a little bit. Also does anyone know the GPS corodenates ( cant spell the word)for the cruise terminal at Boston.:eek:

What route do you suggest.

There are 4 of us, but I have no idea what the car cost as my son did all the arrangements.

Thank you for your help and suggestions, although I am not very reasurrued.

My son has driven in NY and America many times. So I don't think the traffiic will bother him. He drives in London all the time and that is bad if you are a timid driver.

we will be leaving from Newark Airport as we are over nighting there.

We have hired the car through Alamo.

We are using a hire car to drive from New York to Boston for our Cruise on 14 September, are the hire car drop off's near the port if not do they run a shuttle bus? Also does anyone know approximate time it will take to drive from New York to Boston?

My daughter and granddaughter are cruising for the first time at the end of August. They have one or two questions that I can't answer help please.

1. I have read the thread on hairdriers is it best to take your own? What

socket adaptor will they need.

2. Granddaughter is 14 is there plenty of things for her to do will there be

other teenagers on the ship?

3. Are you allowed to take your own alcohol on the ship. I din't want to

start a debate on the rights and wrongs of taking your own alcohol on

board just a yes or no if you can or can't. Is the luggage scanned

when taken aboard?

Thank you for your help.

My daughter and her daughter are cruising IE they have never cruised before and they have asked me some questions that I can't answer. I have read the posts about hairdriers, so I have advised them to take their own, what socket will they need. Can they take their hair straighteners? Can they take a bottle of alcohol on board. please no flamming just a yes nor no will do.

What is a Gold Card, how do you get one? What are the perks with one. \we are in a 2 bedroom aft suite will we get one?:D

What is Gold Card do you get extra perks with one, how do you get one. We are in a 2 bedroom aft suite will we get one?

I know this is a silly question but how many bottles of wine come in the wine package. Also if we don't finish a bottle with our meal can we take it out of the Dinning Room when we leave.

The price we paid was just over £5000, there are 4 of us sharing, and we are on a 7 day cruise out of Boston . Thanks for pictures. Any other information anyone can think of will be very useful.

We have booked a 2 bed aft suite on Brilliance in September, has anyone been in one of these suites, photos please if you have any. Also what extra things can we expect as a suite passenger. Did I read we can have breakfast in Chops? Any infor would be greatly received. Thank you

Hi, we are sailing on Brilliance in September. It will be my seventh birthday while we are on board, were is the best place to celebrate a special occasion. Also are there any secret places on the ship we should visit. We have booked a 2 bedroom aft suite, which I believe we have a concierge to look after us. what does he do, or what can I ask him to do.

:confused:Do you tender in on any of the ports. I have a problem stepping down:(into the tenders so I would just like to know which they are. We are going on this cruise in June.:D:p

Last year on the Destiny, pool towels were in our cabin, and we took them to the beach. Don't lose them or they will charge you.
