Added the balcony pics for others thinking about staying in the Royal Suite. Hot tub will be used often at night. It took us quite awhile to get things setup but enjoying ourselves immensely. Introduce me if you see me around. We will be at the Captain's Toast today at noon. One of the obligation of being a Zenith is we have to show up early and then they introduce the Zeniths - The only other Zenith I know is Wanda but find out at the gathering. The usually give the Ladies flowers and the guys a bottle of wine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some of our Team CC can answer. This is my first time out of Terminal 25. Last time we were scheduled out of 25 but when we arrived at the terminal they were at the other terminal. I didn't even notice it except from the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for taking us armchair cruising. We got off the Equinox on August 27. Enjoyed it a lot. Wonderful crew and staff. Glad you are along. I would give the crew a 110% rating so fare. Could not be more accommodating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jshli Posted September 6, 2021 #379 Share Posted September 6, 2021 Thanks Jim for posting all this info, I am enjoying “traveling” with you. In St. Kitts, we usually take a Celebrity shore excursion and then walk around the port and visit the shops. Will this still be allowed or upon our return to the port, will we have to immediately get back on the ship. In St. Maarten, if we take a ship’s excursion, will we be allowed to be dropped off in town and return to the port on our own? From everything I am reading, I would guess the answer is “no” to both questions but just want to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they both use a different formula for Surge Pricing. LOL.... I have my credit card loaded but have alerts turned on so every time I book I get an alert of a pre-approval and then the next morning the actual charge.

Not sure about the toiletries..I love all the CO Bigelow products.. I use them at our vacation home and were happy to see them on EDGE. . As long as the products are not allergy inducing..okay for a cruise week or two, Worst ever was when they had the lemongrass products....best as a mosquito repellent! I don't think they will cause any allergies. I used it last night for the first time and if it has a scent it very very mild. I agree the lemongrass one ..... someone reminded me that that the Bigalow had a pepermint essence. I had forgotten about that. (at least I think it was the Bigalow).

Tell him “Multumesc” - thank you in Romanian, from us! As well to Jonathan and Yulia, they will take good care of you. Yes we dropped in last night around 7:30 and were the only guest in the Retreat. Gave us a nice opportunity to meet Micea. Great conversationalist. We didn't realize Yulia was his wife. They are such a cute couple. Both Jonathan and Yulia are really engaging and we can tell this is a going to be one of the best cruises ever. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted September 6, 2021 Author #389 Share Posted September 6, 2021 (edited) One thing I always do on Day 1 is take a picture of the Itinerary. A little decoding if you have never looked at it closely. The Days in Bold are the Chic Nights. If there is an * next to the day it means a time zone change. Didn't realize we have no time zone changes on this cruise. I put the clipped itinerary into my favorites for quick reference. The schedule matches all the changes we received just before the cruise.

micheleata Posted September 6, 2021 #394 Share Posted September 6, 2021 1 hour ago, Jim_Iain said: Sounds like a fun day for sure. Is the Donkey Sanctuary shown on the map? Yes, it is on the map, on the Southern route. Someone mentioned earlier taking a hat and sunscreen. Also make sure you have bottles of water, and we brought some packaged snacks with us, as there is not a lot of places to stop if you head south. I had read about food trucks before we went, but we didn't see any. There is Sorobon Beach Resort about halfway through, that has a restaurant and bathrooms.
