I’m sitting in the airport with my husband, first flight was cancelled at the last minute, fingers crossed this one gets off the ground so we can wake up in Fort Lauderdale tomorrow ready to go. The flight shenanigans drives me crazy and keeps me up anxious until that boarding door opens at the destination. Fingers crossed for all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare perfect match Posted April 3, 2022 #30 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) Glad I found you! Totally ready for another virtual cruise with you. After following you and a few other reviewers on Odyssey and Wonder I had a difficult choice to make. Which one of those two ships would I book first? After checking out prices, room availability, and what sailing dates would work best with our schedule we have a winner! We’re booked on Odyssey in April 2023! I’m very excited to sail on her! We haven’t sailed Celebrity yet, but it’s been on my mind. It will be interesting to see if I end up booking another cruise after this virtual sailing. 😂 I’m ready for the fun to begin! Bring it on!

That will make Benny a very happy boy! Now, will he only eat 2 apps, 2 entrees and 2 desserts? Looking forward to a great week with you till we have our B2B on the Discovery Princess the following 2 weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey & Sophie Posted April 3, 2022 #34 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Looking forward to this. Should be as great as the Royal reviews. We love Celebrity. We sailed 5 times before we went to Royal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odyssey is an amazing ship. Wonder is beautiful and nice but when you take into consideration the price Odyssey is a better value. Of course you know my favorite is still Symphony of the Seas. Celebrity is a whole different experience. I book celebrity when I need a low key, calm, relaxing and being pampered getaway 😂 Of course the food!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would stop by guest relations and let them know and see if they can offer discounted laundry service for you to help out! It was not a good day yesterday for Florida flights due to a thunderstorm that stalled. Lots of delays and cancellations from Orlando down to Miami. I thought about going last night but one was canceled in the afternoon and the last flight was delayed until midnight so I am on the first flight out this morning which has been delayed. We are waiting on pilots! It would not be an adventure without flight shenanigans!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BennyBrun Posted April 3, 2022 Author #38 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Day 1 My 7AM flight was pushed back to 9:30AM. It’s now 9:30AM and we are still boarding a full flight! I don’t think we will be leaving on time. Displaced passengers from yesterday ( to Miami, FLL, Fort Meyers, West Palm Beach, Orlando ) jumped onto this flight only to have it delayed. They are trying to get to Florida and it doesn’t matter which city I guess. Fun Fun Fun! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chriskoo Posted April 3, 2022 #40 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Good luck @BennyBrun ! Glad you’re on a flight at last. I’m off to Walmart to buy clothes and toiletries as our airline told us that we are unlikely to get our luggage until San Juan. Oh well! We won’t be stylish but we’ll be on board. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They received them in Athens, two ports later. Their happiness was unmeasurable. Good Luck! I hope you packed a few things in your carry-ons.

Rare BennyBrun Posted April 3, 2022 Author #48 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Day 1 Embarkation Day The bag took a little while but there were displaced bags everywhere. After I got my bag Uber was pulling up $14.62 and off to the Edge! I overheard that if you use X transfer, you have to wait for the shuttle to come from terminal 1 and the shuttle stops at all the terminals. So that 10 minute ride will turn into 60 minutes!

Rare BennyBrun Posted April 3, 2022 Author #49 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Day 1 Embarkation Day The good thing about being late is that you get to walk right in… no line … no hassle no nothing… it took 10 minutes from curb to Edge! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
