Or if they call you because you were identified in contact tracing. There is no routine passenger testing on board i believe they test each crew member once weekly. Thanks for the reply good to hear we won't be going through the mill wondering each will we test positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just read a post from Apex post that said mask are required on their sailing. Saw nothing on Celebrity web site under health protocols about mask. As a result of increased COVID-19 cases associated with the Omicron variant, masks will be required for all guests (regardless of vaccination status,) at all times indoors except while eating or drinking.

So I guess they won't be offering Whisper Challenge as part of their interactive game shows for the foreseeable future. 😂 BTW Here's the Celebrity website link.

Not quite as many as they might if they had a full crew on the Activities Staff, but there are two trivia, another game like Scattegories or TriBond, a couple of Name That Tune, and more, so yes they are doing games. In the evening they have done Yes/No and various other games too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve played that on every cruise we’ve been on since cruising started back up. That is one game we would never volunteer to participate in, especially now. If you haven’t seen it yet, you’ll understand what I mean if you ever do. Edited January 17, 2022 by Ken the cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stones902 Posted January 18, 2022 #110 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I’m glad to hear that few passengers are affected on board but it seems like many of the crew are getting slammed. It started over the holiday cruise and seems to have picked up over the last 2 sailings. Hopefully everyone recovers completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mention of masks and it says there is a hVAC air purifying system on board so all air will be clean filtered and pure. Is this a new development ?

You'd think they could add it to the many, MANY emails and phone calls we're getting about giving them our vaccination status (even though we have already done that!).

I have a feeling that right now people on the next sailing (1/24) are getting the Mask mandate info, but those of us on later cruises are not. Would make sense since Celebrity said that this would be reviewed on a weekly basis when it was implemented on the 1/4 (I think) cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a notice on 1/9, 1/10, and a few days ago but they don't say which sailing. We are on 1/24 and 2/4. All of them say masks are required. I'll have mine on either way.
