Luggage on a B2B

[Vitamin_Sea]

On a back to back cruise, do we have to disembark the ship after the first leg with our luggage and everything?

 

I know we have to get COVID test ,new sign n sail cards for the new cabin.

If this is a US port you will have to disembark to zero the ship, but your luggage will not.  You coordinate with your cabin steward as to the best way to move your stuff if you are changing cabins.  You will get a letter in your cabin a day or two before, explaining the procedure.  EM

Also, the testing is up to the ships doctor. We didn’t test on our back to back a couple of weeks ago.

Lemme give you the B2B procedure.  Assuming you are switching cabins, you'll fully repack your suitcases and leave them in your 'old' room.  Your steward will relocate them to your new cabin during the change-over.  We printed 'new' luggage tags just to be nice and make it extra easy. Do NOT put your luggage in the hall.

 

You and your fellow B2B traveling companions will gather in the dining room where you'll wait for the last of the disembarkation.  During your wait, you'll meet with a crew member who will provide you with your new S&S cards.  Once the ship is 'zeroed out' (except you) a crew member will escort you down into the terminal where you will be quickly taken through the Customs process (remember to take your Passport) and immediately returned to the ship.  Typically, the atrium bar will have mimosas lined up for the B2B guests.  The reason for this is that your S&S card won't actually activate until 10:30a at the very earliest so don't try to sign on to the internet or anything until staff tells you that the new folios are up and running.

 

As to testing, IF the medical director deems it necessary, it'll happen one day before you dock.  We sailed when it was required and it was handled the prior afternoon.

Does anyone know if wheelchair assistance is available to disembark the ship and return on a B2B?

We had someone on the Glory who needed assistance and they provided it.

Thank you, Hoosierpop.  One person in our group will require wheelchair assistance.

you can do this onboard the ship by going to guest services if you do not want to wait hours calling them
