FunCruiser56 Posted August 11, 2021 #76 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Like others I sure appreciate the Blu menus! Are the special drinks in Blu included with the prem. drink package they look delish. 🙂 Enjoy your cruise, we sail in March on The Apex and you have convinced me we need to drive down a day early and not have the stress of a 4 hr drive from Central FL..

Yes, the Blu cocktails are included in the premium package, and it is definitely a good idea to drive down the day before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose they weren't sure they tested all possible contacts? Better safe than sorry? i believe that Equinox is using tracelets and it reports anyone that has been within 6 feet which is considered the infectious zone. Probably a real small subset of PAX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, Celebrity emails and the healthy at sea website said everyone would be required to be tested before stopping in St. Thomas and Sint Maarten, but that isn't happening. In St. Thomas now, and SMX tomorrow, and no testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was thrilled and asked me to say hello to you. She asked if I know you, and I told her only online. 😊 You don't even know how happy this makes me. She is the best!

Margarita Jane Posted August 11, 2021 #81 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) We are doing a b2b - last week we had the surf package…and about all I could do was send and receive email. I upgraded to stream this week, and I am much happier. With my elite discount it was $98 for the week.

TribeHokie Posted August 11, 2021 #85 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Thank you for this live thread. We are boarding the 8/15 sailing for our honeymoon and are soooooooo excited! Also doing aqua class for the first time so very interested in that specific experience for you. How full is the ship? And specifically are there crowds at the pools or lines at Blu for dinner? I've never had a wait at Luminae, but not sure what the differential in number of passengers is between the classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve a couple of crew that, but they don’t know. I’ll have to ask an officer. It feels like it’s about half full. No crowds at the pool or lines for dinner.

Jazzbo Posted August 11, 2021 Author #88 Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) So the Turkish Grand Bazaar is a gorgeous shop in St. Thomas. Good prices on Turkish rugs ($200 to about $800 for large ones). They also have ceramics and gorgeous glass lights/chandeliers. You can kind of see the lights through the door in the previous post.

Jazzbo Posted August 11, 2021 Author #96 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Today is our 37th anniversary. We got the ring on top at Dynasty Dazzlers downtown at a great price. We are booked into Murano tonight. Every place we went into, people were so happy that cruise ships are back. Someone told me that 2 other ships are supposed to be in St. Thomas this week. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luv4cruises Posted August 12, 2021 #98 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Hi, Hope you all are having a fantastic cruise! We are on the 8/27 cruise. Can any of you confirm that your CVS rapid Antigen test was accepted at the port? I’m so paranoid about this. I just scheduled the PCR test for 4:00 on 8/24. We fly from Ca on 8/26. im debating on signing up for Rapid Antigen test as well. The word Rapid worries me. It would be a relief to know that your CVS Rapid Antigen test was accepted at the port? Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
