If one spouse is below a level on her/his own and goes on a 'girls/guys' cruise without husband/wife, she/he would not be entitled to the higher level. Hope I am wrong, but that is what someone mentioned to me awhile back. Edited March 24, 2021 by shipshape sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upwarduk Posted March 25, 2021 #2354 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Webinar could be interesting tonight. Will it already have been recorded, or will it be live? https://shipmonk.co.uk/2021/03/25/celebrity-apex-to-make-world-debut-in-greece-in-june-as-royal-caribbean-says-it-will-start-sailing-from-cyprus-in-july/?fbclid=IwAR0thK9vwP_rW1cgr_JrFP-QPfAGaeLLJ3vDQ1fgtLE0v7wwkhUyV3E1BmE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upwarduk Posted March 25, 2021 #2356 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Watched the webinar, but it kept freezing and without sound about 5 minutes in. So I left my laptop on and watched on my iPad, but even that lost sound at times. When it said it was the end, I went back to the Laptop and switched off, but it did say the end, so hopefully it played through from beginning to end.

Unless, of course, they do it live again for those of us in North America. How many more of these must they do before they work out all of the technical bugs? Rhetorical question! 🤷🏼♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloomcruisers Posted March 25, 2021 #2361 Share Posted March 25, 2021 This is my first attempt at a webinar so I have some newbie questions. Do I try to connect right at 6:00 or should I be on ahead of that to be sure it is working? if I lose sound or it freezes as some have mentioned, is there anything I can do or just hope it comes back?

They recommend signing in 5-10 minutes early. I usually aim for 5 minutes or so early, then do something else until it actually starts. They've had a number of technical issues with past webinars. If you lose sound or it freezes, just be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to prank her and say "I'd like to speak with surely just a minute please, may you transfer me". Dating myself, I know... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
