may not work if tooth fairy comes along while you are gone...........😉

This however is the best aft facing cabin and balcony we have ever had. Cabin #8181 on Celebrity Infinity, here is a video I found of Celebrity Summit which has the exact same layout. Check out this cabin and balcony.

You forgot to bring your hammock, this is me back in 2012. First time we stayed in a corner aft on Explorer http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag123/DonnaLDC/Explorer 11 day Southern Carib Feb 2012/025.jpg

Or Monopoly player never to return to CC.

You can see where you are going on some corner aft balconies that wrap around. 😁

@singinalot What are your plans, just ride it out? Stay safe.

Really no protocol, each ship can pretty much do what they want. Might have something to do how many people onboard start to bi$#& !

They do that same thing around our house. The planes come out of the US Naval Air Station in Norfolk, Virginia and do the low flying practice around the Blue Ridge Mountains which are 300 miles due west of the base where we live. Our cats are finally get used to it after almost 3 years. They would run super fast and head down stairs when ever they come over. Usually at least 2 together sometimes 3. Really loud !

Looks like you are still at the pier, is that correct?

We have a Category 2D booked for less then 1/2 of the prices that are listed now for that same category. Booked back in January 2023

Once it leaves there it will be heading to Bayonne to pick us up. 😁

For those on the Gulf Coast of Florida,what are officials telling you to do with impeding hurricane on the way? Has the weather reports pinpointed yet where landfall will be?

This is what we have now, would like to postpone it though to something like below to 2025 dates. Jewel May30th -June 11th 2024 12 nights Equinox is before she moves to PC June 13th -June 22nd 2024 9 nights

....Jewel(12 nights) gets over on 11th of June, fly to Barcelona,2 nights pre, plus 2 nights post cruise in Rome after Equinox(9 nights) Day 1: Barcelona - Spain Thu Jun 13 2024 | Depart 05:00 PM Day 2: At Sea Fri Jun 14 2024 | Day 3: Provence(Marseille) - France Sat Jun 15 2024 | 07:00 AM To 06:00 PM Day 4: Nice (Villefranche) - France Sun Jun 16 2024 | 08:00 AM To 07:00 PM Day 5: Santa Margherita - Italy Mon Jun 17 2024 | 08:00 AM To 06:00 PM Day 6: Florence/Pisa(Livorno) - Italy Tue Jun 18 2024 | Arrive 07:00 AM Day 7: Florence/Pisa(Livorno) - Italy Wed Jun 19 2024 | Depart 06:00 PM Day 8: At Sea Thu Jun 20 2024 | Day 9: Naples - Italy Fri Jun 21 2024 | 07:00 AM To 06:00 PM Day 10: Rome (Civitavecchia) - Italy Sat Jun 22 2024 | Arrive 05:30 AM

What deck was your aft cabin on? If I remember right, you went to Norway too didn't you?

Had the concern, the second cruise Equinox would be to hot mid June, early July. If the banning issue of the large ships in the fjords though might make it wise to keep what we got in 2024..........lots of unknowns,

The Jewel / Equinox combo ................ thinking of Cancel 2024 to 2025

Peas look like baby food!

My Wife just doesn't want to go, said 2 long cruises within 8 months is to much. Greenland cruise starts on September 14th.

So sad. 😞

Thanks for all the information, I kind of figured it wouldn't be the same as Royal's Itinerary. Wonder when or if Royal will have a 2025 version of this same itinerary? The Hamburg Cruise Ship Parade would have been fun I bet. They have it every other year in Hamburg.

So you mentioned don't book deck 13, but if we would get a cabin on deck 13........I assume that is because of the public deck above. What if I was to book one of the cabins between 13113- 127 or 13116-128 Above those cabins there is 2 bars, Sapphire and Turquoise , they wouldn't be noisy would they? Any music or bands every play there?

What are the difference between the BL1, 2 and 3's , just location? BL3 cabin 13113 looks larger then cabin infront and behind on the deck plans that that section, is that true or just bad pictures? What deck are the life boats on where they block the view on some of the balconies, are there obstructed view balconies? Only need a cabin that holds 2. Sure would like to know what category those aft cabins are and any pictures of them would be great. We like to either book aft facing the wake or midship. Any pictures?

Okay, please give me your thoughts? Probably just book a regular balcony cabin and not the yacht Club. Any secret regular balcony cabins that are better then others? What category are the aft facing regular balconies? How is the food and service, will we notice a huge difference between the 2 cruise lines? Any help greatly appreciated.
