We boarded this morning for the first day of our B2B (on board til February 4). Very impressed with the ship, the cleanliness, and friendliness of the crew so far. Presently sitting in the ‘Eagle’s Nest’ at the Sunset Bar, ready for Sailaway.

 

Life is very very good! Ready for our 15th and 16th Celebrity cruise(s)! 😀

How was the check in process?

Check in today was great! All went smoothly. Easiest and fastest check in of any cruise we’ve done. First was proof of negative test. I was glad for that check being first!

Has the daily programme still got destination talks and guest speakers? 

Im taking the 4th February.

Guilty as charged, we bailed and moved to March! 😂

Enjoy!

I know this information has been posted a lot but for the life of me I cannot find it on Celebrity's website:  What is the link to find out if we can go ashore on our own or if we have to have a Celebrity tour?

@cruisestitch I appreciate your updates about ports!!  Looking forward to continue to follow you this week as we will be sailing soon (fingers crossed!)

Just read on X Captain’s.Club FB page that there is no cruise director, no activities director and no casino host on the 1/14/22 Silhouette sailing.  Is this true?  

[jhagen]

We are aboard on 2/24. Thanks  for this thread, will follow.

Is laundry service available?

With 40 days to go, already debating how much to pack?

We will have a cruise Director and I think there is a new casino host but because they are joining the ship they are all currently not interacting with passengers or crew while they have their waiting time. The two activities staff, Vish and Jaz, are filling in for a few days until the Cruise Director is cleared to start work.

Laundry services are available on board and I will try to get a photo of the price list for you.

Thank you!  I’m still debating on my March Cruise!  Don’t want to find any more reasons to cancel! 🤞🤞🤞

Thanks Cruisestitch. We are Elite + with free laundry, but am sure some would like the pricing info. I know it is expensive, so our perk is appreciated.

I am interested to see the laundry pricing list. I plan to pack light on our cruise 2/4 on this ship.

Do you mean the Feb 25 cruise or did our cruise get an extra day added?🤣

Thanks for all information you are sharing, it’s really appreciated. We are booked on the Feb 25th cruise and wondered if there is any way to find out how many guests are currently due to sail on this cruise. We are very keen to sail, however we would have concerns if the ship was anywhere near capacity. Any pointers or help would be greatly appreciated.
