However, they are offering four other Cartagena excursions, including a hop on hop off bus tour which is hardly a bubble activity! I wonder what their logic is. Also I see they are now offering a jeep tour in Nassau for $149. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted January 18, 2022 Author #128 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Sorry, I can’t find out anything for the upcoming cruise. Maybe try your rollcall. I only have information about the current cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlydiner Posted January 18, 2022 #129 Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) According to an email I got minutes ago Cartagena is gone, replaced by Puerto Plata, Dominican Rep. Edited January 18, 2022 by earlydiner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted January 18, 2022 Author #130 Share Posted January 18, 2022 For the third day in a row we have had no announcement regarding positive cases (crew or passengers) which is excellent news. tonight we will have the production show “Cosmopolitan” 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since this thread is specifically about this cruise, Perhaps comments about the upcoming cruise could go on a new thread or onto the Roll Call so as not to confuse people. This cruise was never scheduled to go to Cartagena 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW it's the same menu regardless of location. I've only been in MDR on Edge to try it out one night and they had the children's menu available. I've used it often in Luminae and Blu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted January 19, 2022 Author #133 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Our cruise Director is in fact Lewis and he is back on duty after his time cloistered away on joining the ship. We now have a DJ, but I confess I am not impressed. He is at this moment playing Caribbean music poolside, but it all sounds like it would be well-suited to Zumba classes, not mellow at all with its driving beat. He has driven me away, to complete the analogy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cangelmd Posted January 19, 2022 #135 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Just now, cruisestitch said: Another day with no new cases, this makes four in a row No new passenger cases? Any idea about crew? I’m sure with so few people on board, it’s hard to tell if the crew is reduced in number or not, unless a high profile group like entertainment or your own waitstaff disappear?

Rare cruisestitch Posted January 19, 2022 Author #136 Share Posted January 19, 2022 On the last cruise he very carefully said “we have a few cases among the passengers and crew” So I would predict from that that he might say “we have a few cases among the crew”. But no. He has been silent for four days on the issue, so I am interpreting that to mean there are no new cases among passengers OR crew 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpreting no announcement at all to mean ‘there are no new cases among passengers and crew’, is not the same as an announcement saying there have been no new cases 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted January 19, 2022 Author #140 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I agree that I wish he would come out with a clear statement rather than leaving anything open to interpretation. But I don’t have any illusions that the readership of Cruise Critic is more than a small percentage of cruises and not likely to have their decisions make more than a small dent in passenger count.

I know for a fact that the cruise lines monitor Cruise Critic. (Long story but a compliment I wrote about a crew member was sent to his supervisor the next day from the main office and he told me) but I also wrote other sites like FB.

Wblotner Posted January 20, 2022 #143 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Somebody aboard the ship knows if there are new cases. If they changed policy to not announce that destroys confidence of passengers in Celebrity. We as consumers have a right to know. Good luck!

Rare cruisestitch Posted January 20, 2022 Author #144 Share Posted January 20, 2022 According to Captains Club hostess there have been no new passenger cases and only a couple of crew cases on this cruise. So this is consistent with the lack of announcements from the Captain. This is day 7. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What difference will an announcement make except being upset and nervous until the rest of a cruise? The "best" time for such an announcement is during dinner (or lunch) - I witnessed a such on my December 5 cruise. One might choke and pass away upon hearing it. What would a cause of passing be in that scenario? Edited January 20, 2022 by kirtihk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted January 20, 2022 Author #148 Share Posted January 20, 2022 The captains announcement comes at 9:45 on Seadays and late in the afternoon on port days, depending on what time we are leaving Port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hickeyclan1 Posted January 21, 2022 #150 Share Posted January 21, 2022 So there is no announcement for 4 days on any Passengers or crew with new Covid cases and some of you think it is a Celebrity Conspiracy??? Give me a frickin break.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
