I feel like I opened a huge can of worms! I really just wanted to know what the dress guidelines are. I prefer not to wear jeans at dinner, but. If it's the rule, then of course people are within their rights to wear them. Just to muddy the waters, my sister spoke with a celebrity representative again yesterday, and was told that jeans are not allowed in the dining rooms after 6 pm. Now do you understand why I'm confused,and asked the question?

You misinterpreted my comment. I would have no idea as to whether or not celebrity enforces their attire guidelines since it is my first time sailing with them. My comment was actually in regards to past ships I have been on that had specific guidelines, but the crew turned a blind eye to passengers who chose to disregard them I am comfortable with nice jeans at night, especially being from very casual California

Oh man my mom is not going to be happy about jeans in the dining room! I don't really care, but I hate it when there are rules re:attire, and they're not enforced
-
I thought I read that jeans weren't acceptable in any of the dining rooms after 6 pm?

So what is the definition of smart casual really? Going on a british islands cruise in 2 weeks and will be in Blu. I usually wear a more casual knit dress to dinner, and wear cocktail dresses for formal night. Will I be too dressed up? My pants will all be very casual, such as colored denim and leggings

Thinking of booking with them also. Didn't realize they were a broker till closer inspection. I have travel insurance so it's probably worth the risk, especially since it's partially government funded

We are doing this trip August 8th on Celebrity. It will be my husband and myself and my 3 boys (18,18 & 22) and my mom. My mom uses a cane and a scooter on the ship. At times my boys who all have a genetic metabolic disease also need wheelchairs
For my mom we use a folding wheelchair on excursions and she takes her cane. Also we only do private excursions. I work with private tour guides to customize trips for us an ensure that she has access to elevators and to get as close as possible to destinations.
We managed to do the Baltics in 2013. It takes a lot of planning but can be done. But I suggest a wheelchair for excursions. I am in the process of researching and contacting guides now. Will let you know what I find. And if you end up on same cruise as us you are more than welcome to join us on our private tours.
I know my mom could not do large bus tours

Thanks
I had planned to rent a folding wheelchair also. I would welcome any tour info you fine. The private tours are rather expensive. To book one daily would be prohibitive

Are you on the June 9th trip? I would very much like to go to Kilkenny. Will be with my mom and sister. Keep me posted I may be interested in joining you

I have been given the impression that her scooter can't go on the regular tour bus. Will d/w celebrity

The most problematic ports seem to be
Liverpool
Waterford
Dun Laoghaire, Ireland
And holyhead
Anyone who has experiences with these ports I welcome your advice

I am trying to book a British Isles cruise with my mom, who walks with a cane, but can't go long distances. The cruise will either be on Celebrity Silhouette or the Royal Princess. I know how to rent a scooter, but I need help with private tour planning. The cruises go to Ireland, Scotland, England and Le Havre. It looks as if the accessible tours on the boat just stick you on a bus and drive around. I'm seriously not doing that. So has anyone used any private drivers or tours that will take the scooter with? I understand that not everywhere will allow her to drive her scooter in and that's fine. But for hills, long distances etc it will make all the difference. She REALLY wants to see Normandy!
Thanks in advance
