  1. Our Celebrity Infinity cruise of Greece this fall ends at the port near Athens with a docking time of 5 in the morning. Anyone know what time they make us vacate our cabins?  We are asking as we need to know around what time we should have our transfer ride come pick us up and would like to have time for a nice last filling breakfast aboard ship before departing.

  2. in the Main dining room just tell your waiter you want to order the burger from the kids menu which includes cheeseburgers. There is nothing wrong with an adult ordering off the kids menu, list is below. (Original Poster indicated they might want to have a burger at 8 pm)

    Entrees
    Spaghetti Bolognese
    Mac and Cheese
    Grilled Cheese Sandwich
    Mini Margarita Pizza
    Fish Fingers Lemon Parsley Mayonnaise
    Cheese Burger* with Fries
    Grilled New York Strip with Mashed Potatoes

    It took me 5 minutes to find this, which just MIGHT have an explanation.

    Summary:

    Two men missing from the NCL Sky stop on 19 April.  No contact from them since they got off.

    Those two NCL cruise passengers who are missing from last week are not the only ones. There were 3 NCL cruise passengers from a previous trip who are also missing when they got off in Tortola, so it makes sense NCL would stop docking there until it is known what happened to these people. This article mentions the previous passengers, also  https://www.cruisehive.com/two-cruise-passengers-reported-missing-in-the-british-virgin-islands/129774

    Interesting I was on the Solstice Feb. 18-25 and don't remember those particular carb sides you're mentioning. 

    The hasselbach potatoes were a side to the Steak Diane. My aunt asked for Baked potatoes a few times and was given them, but they might not have been on the menu.  Oh and I think we also asked for mac n cheese or French fries off the children's menu. One night there was some kind of rice with the main dish, I'm pretty sure, but I could be wrong.  🙂

    Please help me!

     

    I'm on the Infinity in 3 weeks time. I've read about all the cut backs. Do I have any improvements in service, food & beverage and/or entertainment to look forward to? The thought of school dinners mashed potato with dinner every night is already causing me lost sleep. I need some positivity!

    You will have a wonderful time! Please do not stress about mashed potatoes. You can ask your waiter to substitute any of the other veggies or starches that are on the menu, including Mac N Cheese or French Fries from the children's menu, or rice pilaf or anything else you spot that's a side of one of the other entrees. I've seen some people also order two entrees and combine what they like from each. We were on one of the older Celebrity ships recently and though the menu may not have been as elaborate as it was 10 years ago, the food was still very good. Also please try the buffet at lunchtime. They now seem to go to the extra effort of themes and lovely choices at the buffet for lunch.

    A couple days ago, I watched an episode of Mighty Cruise Ships or something like that. I'm sure we've all heard of it. The episode I watched featured Celebrity Solstice. I don't know how old it was, but the kitchen/dining room scenes showed plates of food that reminded me of what Celebrity used to serve. The difference is stunning.

    I was on Solstice earlier this year and the menus posted here were very similar except there were more choices for the starch each night, like baked potatoes, hasselback potatoes and rice. The lunches at the buffet were outstanding some of the days, better than the MDR food, with different themes each day and made-to-order stations. However, at night the food in the buffet was more like leftovers and very uninspiring, so the MDR was much better to go to for dinner. Took a Princess cruise to compare and found the shows at night and music options were much better on Princess than Solstice, but the food better on Celebrity Solstice. We'll be on Infinity in Greece next year and really appreciate seeing your reviews and menus and photos!

    I think the first 4-day sailing is one I am on Nov 29th. I will try to remember to post the compass.

    Thanks, that will be awesome! We are on Navigator's 4 night sailing departing Dec. 16 and was wondering what the Cruise Compass activities will look like, also.  I read a Cruise Critic article from Dec. 2019 that mentioned some of RCCL's usual holiday activities aboard its ships, like an Ugly Sweater Contest, caroling and holiday movies, but we don't know if they will still be doing those things.
