39august Posted January 7 #2 Share Posted January 7 Not that I have ever seen. Just drop off with all others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Stag Posted January 7 #3 Share Posted January 7 As mentioned, there is not a special drop for Retreat Luggage. There is a special entrance for Retreat check-in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceangoer2 Posted January 7 #4 Share Posted January 7 We found our bags right away in a specific numbered location which depended on our early flight departure time....the same as all other cruisers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHEZMARYLOU Posted January 7 #5 Share Posted January 7 Yes, there is a Retreat luggage drop off location right by the entrance to the Retreat. They used to have staff with a sign but haven't seen that for a while. There is a porter there and if you tell them you are in a suite they take your luggage to a scanner to the left of the Retreat entrance to the terminal. I don't know if this applies to sky suites. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s for when you are leaving the ship. The OP is asking about joining the ship on embarkation day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted January 7 #7 Share Posted January 7 I just sailed from Terminal 25 in Fort Lauderdale in November. There was a Retreat/Zenith luggage drop area next to the Retreat entrance. Sky suites are part of Retreat, so they would be included. Not sure if the sign said Retreat/Zenith, but it certainly said Retreat and Zeniths are able to use the Retreat entrance. Luggage tags for disembarcation have always said Retreat/Zenith or Suite/Zenith. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebrity includes this image with the upper level suites placard. Not a great photo but it's the best I have. Placard works wonders. We are in an EV again in two weeks!

Is there a special luggage drop off area at the Fort Lauderdale pier for lower level suites? Sailing the Ascent in two weeks It depends on the terminal you are sailing from. T25 has a special handling team for upper suites and you will receive a special paper to put on the dash of your transportation vehicle. The dash paper allows you to proceed to the drop off area in your vehicle. Your luggage will arrive in your suite very soon after you enter the ship, sometimes it will be in the room when you arrive to your room. Not so at the other FL pier terminals. If not in an upper suite, regardless of the terminal, then the porters will (hopefully) put your luggage in a cart designated for suites and your luggage should receive priority handling. Royal does the same with a priority distinction between the class of suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
