Greetings,

We just got back from a cruise on the Enchantment and after we docked in Key West, everyone had to present themselves to customs with their citizenship papers while on board the ship.

All US citizens to the theater and the non-US to the restaurant.

Afterwards you were allowed to disembark.

Needless to say very time consuming, just curious if this is normal or something new.

Thanks,

Can you book them ahead of time? Out just on the boat? Also we have a 3rd child who won't use it (she will do the aquapark with the tween excursion), but can she hang with us, and ride the tram? Jane

Greetings,

We on the Enchantment in May and I went under the shore excursions and reserved one.

I was not sure what a power board is? We bring a small fan and a short extension cord.

Would that be OK?

Thanks,

Roy

Greetings,

We got a really good price on Delta and arrive in Miami at one o'clock. The Enchantment of the Seas docs says it leaves at 4 pm. Does anyone one know when the last boarding time is?

I have heard it is only about 15 minutes taxi to the docks.

Hoping I made the right call, so looking for reassurance and also buying travel insurance, just in case.

Thanks,

Roy

Just back from our Glory cruise. The upgrade fairy called at 4 pm the day before our cruise and we got the Grand Suite for 650 extra, glad we did, had an extra sea day.

However, after sailing we called to have the temperature checked and were told it was operating according to Carnival standards.

I know they keep it warm to save on fuel costs, but that doesn't fly in the face of today's fuel cost being so low.

So wanted to suggest a fan if you are going.

BEST food ever!

We will write a review latter.

Greetings,

We are going to get a Cabana for Half Moon Cay and would like suggestions on which ones are best and which to avoid.

Also is it safe to leave stuff there or take it with us in the water. Cell phone and some cash.

I can't take the sun all day and this looks like a good choice.

Thanks for your input.

Is it best to call a PVP for the best last minute deals or try to watch online to find them yourselves. I've never used a PVP but we have one that has been watching my on-line searches and calling to see if we need help. We are looking to book CCL Dream in December but won't know until a couple weeks ahead of time if it will be a go or not. I have a rental car reserved and hotels booked just in case but they can be cancelled if we can't go.

Greetings,

I am not familiar with that term. Also, looking to upgrade to any unsold suites on our sailing.

Is there a list to get on?

Thanks,

Roy

Greetings,

I just found out that we have 140.00 of on board credit. Can we use this to pay for the automatic tipping?

I remember being on another cruise, I think it was NCL and they would not let you use it for that purpose.

Thanks,

Roy

Greetings,

Delta has a 11:30 flight for the day home. We are not sure how far it is from port to airport.

Do you think we would make it?

Thanks,

Roy

Greetings,

Our last cruise was on Celebrity and we just went to a lounge for muster drill and did not have to bring the life jackets. It made it alot easier and comfortable to relax in a comfortable seat while the demonstration for how to put on the life jacket. Then went to dinner from there. Since, the are owned by RCCL, hoping the Adventure is the same?

Also, are dress shorts and Polo OK for first night dinner?

Thanks,

Roy

We booked due to the ports of call in the southern Caribbean for march 18, 2017.

Glad to hear there is a dry dock scheduled before this. Does anyone know any information about when and what is being updated?

Thanks

I have noticed on Celebrity that they offer two zipline excursions. We are going the southern Caribbean and someone mentioned the best zip line was in St. Lucia.

Any ideas?

Thanks

One of the odd things we found on the Summit was the worn out carpet thru out the ship.

We had such a nice cruise that we booked the Sky Suite next to ours for March of 2015.

Does anyone know when the Summit will be dry docked or replacing the carpet.

I understood there is a new suite restaurant being added, so we were hoping the carpet might get done also.

We just got back from the Summit and I asked the Bistro manager and he thinks on the Summit it was going to be in the Michel's Club area.

We booked another cruise on the Summit for 2015 and was hoping they would have replaced the carpet thru out the ship, along with a new eating area.

We always go to Sandcastle Beach. Cute little resort, good service, we like it there. About 2 miles from the port $3 each way.

We went to the Sand Castle hotel also on the day pass. 2 chairs and umbrella for 20 dollars, beautiful sandy beach area, somewhat limited space, so we went early and left by noon.

We just got back from a cruise that had a connecting door and occasionally we could hear the people next door, a Penthouse on NCL, did you hear any noise from the connecting suites on Celebrity?

Our first time and light sleepers.

Thanks for any experiences!

We were just in 6146 on the Infinity. And, it along with 6145 are the nicest sky suites on the M class ships. Not only are they decorated in dark wood to resemble a lock off bedroom/sitting area of the Penthouse suites, they are also almost 400 square feet inside. The bathroom has both a bathtub, and a full shower, larger than the Royal Suite shower, and the bathroom is larger than the RS.

 

If we can snag either of these two cabins, we are very happy there, and would give up staying in a Royal Suite in trade for one of those Sky Suites.

This is our first time on Celebrity and we usually get the specialty coffee card so I was wondering if this is a better deal since it includes other beverages.

Any ideas?

Thanks..

Yes, we booked with the group, I just got my confirmation from Paul and got the plane tickets. Now we have to catch up!

I'll have to check out the Yahoo group, do they send you the info after you register?

Thanks..

Roy

Greetings..

This is the latest we have booked a cruise, it was meant to be. We have seen this cruise before but not sure we could make it and then everything just fell into place.

We have sailed with Aquafest and Pied Piper, so we love being with a group on a big ship.

See everyone soon...

Greetings..

We are looking at the Crown and found some cabins available, but I notice the Horizon food court in on the deck above. Does anyone know if there is noise from above?

We are planning on November of 2011 and just found out we might be able to go, so there is not many cabins remaining, all the mini suites are sold out.

Thanks for any info...
