First 14 day cruise!! Questions!

[smilz]

Cruising in February on CB on our first 14 day cruise. Are you allowed to bring 2 bottles of wine per passenger like a 7/7 back to back? Do you get 2 mini bar set ups also like a back to back? Are MDR menus repeated after 7 days? Are shows repeated?

1 bottle of wine per passengers and one mini bar setup unless it is also sold as two 7 day cruises. Menus should be different each day but some entres will be repeated.

Is your cruise also sold as 2 7-night cruises? If so, then yeah, you get your perks for each leg, no mater how it's booked. And you can bring the one bottle per person per leg 

If it's only sold as a 14-night cruise, then one set of perks, one bottle person no corkage, etc.

You can bring on as many bottles as you want and pay the corkage.

We were on a 16-day cruise. I posted the menus in my live thread. We had some repeats of menu items but never the exact same menus. The crazy thing to me was that they repeated the Curtis Stone specials sometimes the next day. It seems like they could have alternated between them.

Menus do not repeat, but some menu items do.

Shows are not repeated.

Thanks for the info!!

The menu for the entire 7 days is not repeated. Mostly some entrees. Same with the Fresh Market. Some shows will be repeated on the back to back cruise. You can bring as much wine as you want and just pay for the corkage, or one bottle pp per leg, no corkage. There is one mini bar set up, yes.

We have sailed on several (many?)  b2b cruises.  Each individual cruise we received a minibar setup for he cabin as elite.  The menu did in fact repeat itself on the second cruise.  Last b2b was on the Sapphire in June for two 14 day cruises.  It made it easy on the second cruise that we knew what was being offered in the MDR each night and gave us the opportunity to try two different entrees from each night menu.   On one of our first 7 day b2b cruises the chef along with the CD appeared at our M&G.  I specifically asked the chef if the MDR menu would repeat itself on the second leg and he answered affirmative.  So yes it was indeed which btw includes the HC/FWM.  

 

We love b2b because on the first cruise we can return to our cabin on the last full day and the cursed brown kiss of death will not be on our bed to greet us.  😂

There are "true" 14-day cruises (i.e. you don't return to the port of origin) and B2B cruises which are 2 7-day cruises.  We've done both, but prefer the former.  Who wants to be in Ft. Lauderdale in the middle of a cruise?  The 14-day cruises have no repeat ports and more sea days than B2B cruises.  B2B may have a different itinerary for each 7-day period, but also may not.

Just to note, the OP is sailing on a 14 day Circle the Caribbean and not a b2b.

Then it is a 14-day cruise. I am puzzled why the OP asked the questions.

[rcprncss]

Probably have never sailed a 14 night cruise before.

Seems like a responsible question to me, especially for anyone used to cruising for seven days or less.
