It’s currently raining but not letting that put a damper on anything. I’ll grab photos of the dailies for you to see the entertainment info Some stats on this cruise from the CD last night: ~1,100 passengers ~1,300 crew over 98% vaccination rate 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare lattegirl10 Posted October 25, 2021 #8 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Boarding Apex Thursday, please download the dailies. Also is the ship cold? Wondering if I should pack items with sleeves instead of all the sleeveless tops I have? Any advise would be appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least will try to, internet is pretty slow Thanks for sharing your experiences. If you are using the main dining room(s) can you share how they handle the presentation of available choices ? We understand no matter which dining room you are seated in, you can order from the menu of any of the 4 (on any given night), and we also saw a few posts that said all menus were "on-line" only. Does that mean I need to bring my phone (or tablet) to dinner every night to be able to view the dinner choices ? Personally, I hate the idea that I am a slave to my phone ... its one of the reasons I like to cruise, to get away from that thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I hate the idea that I am a slave to my phone ... its one of the reasons I like to cruise, to get away from that thing we haven’t eaten in any of the 4 MDRs on this trip as we had tried them when we were on the Edge. We’ve been doing mostly speciality restaurants this week - Finecut on the first night, Eden tonight, and Rooftop Grill tomorrow night. We did eat in Luminia last night though which was very good. I will say that everywhere we ate, they did give out physical menus - you can always look up the menu in advance on the app but you don’t have to be fully dependent on your phone. The only true “restriction” is that you still can’t serve yourself at ocean view other than that it feels pretty normal. The ship looks fantastic and the crew have been really amazing so far.

NavyCruiser Posted October 26, 2021 #18 Share Posted October 26, 2021 We both had our 3rd booster shot last week, so no issues with being vaccinated. But we still need to get PCR tested 3 days before boarding Apex in Ft Laud in Jan 2022...? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joetop2467 Posted October 26, 2021 #20 Share Posted October 26, 2021 We were on the Apex transatlantic. For the first 8 or nine days, we had menus printed on paper. Then they switched to the normal menus in the leather folder. We asked about it and we’re told they were preparing for returning to normal menus when sailing in the Caribbean. The food was fantastic in the four included restaurants. No need to spend money for specialty restaurants. Staff was great. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
