Question for Celebrity President

[Hawkstar33]

Hello...I was wondering why there is no shuttle, from ship to port entrance, provided at each port?  Many of us cannot do the long walks from the farther docking spaces, especially Nassau....Way too far, so we lose out...    Thank you

Ask the people that run the ports. Celebrity has no say in this.

You should ask on Celebrity FB page or X to get an answer from Celebrity 

Also in Nassau they did have a golf cart shuttling people out to the end of the dock in December 

I wish Celebrity would just by pass Nassau

Is the Eclipse getting a full refurbishment in 2025 similar to Summit or just a few nips and tucks?  Thank you!

They are two different classes of ship ? 🤔

Maybe you should compare to the Silhouette 😁

First, to the OP and others, these new questions to the CEO need to be placed here - individually:

Second, there won't be an opportunity to comment on others' questions.

When they consolidate questions on THAT page do they show how many asked the question?  I haven’t read other President posts.  I’m mostly happy.

I don't think it matters how many are asked, but I can't say for sure.  But I also wonder if multiple similar questions are asked how are they compiled - do they dilute the point by being reworded in a less challenging way?

There was a shuttle in Nassau to the port building.

They're saying from the berth, (highlighted in green).  But as someone else said, that's a Nassau question, not an X question

Right...To someone that has medical issues, that is 25 miles uphill....Forget about walking around the Island after that...We want to keep cruising until either one of us is no longer able, so maybe I should figure out a way to start a shuttle business, paid for by both the country and the cruise lines...
