Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Home last Friday from the 5/4 Summit Bermuda and Charleston . No customs and Immigration in in Charleston. We tied up at about 6 and they announced at about 7 PM that the ship had been cleared by local authorities. No passport check .. we just walked off the ship. we had about a 20 minute wait for customs in Bayonne as initially they only had a few lines . Everyone was out and thru customs by 9:30.
  2. Our sailing is nextWed and I was finally able to check in through the Celebrity website today, not the app.However, the website did not require me to upload the proof of vaccination. I thought that was odd, so I waited 15 minutes and went back to the app. Sure enough, when I opened the check in site on the Apple it showed I had checked in but then asked for the copy of my vaccination card ( only side 1) not front and back like the Bermuda travel authorization required. so I am set until Monday when we take our COVID tests. Fingers crossed that we will be a « go » for Wednesday.
  3. Should be about $800 for the trip
  4. They only resolved the testing issue today by changing the itinerary so the test you take to board the ship will suffice when you fill out the forms and pay your $40 pp to enter Bermuda. You will still have to pay the $40 ut you won’t have to take a second test onboard.
  5. Seems that Celebrity has finally decided that having passengers test twice within 6 days in order to travel to Bermuda is not going over well. They have rearranged the itinerary on the May 4 Summit 9 day Bermuda/ Charleston/ Newport cruise, proceeding to Bermuda on day 3( and 4), which allows passengers to use the COVID test they are using to board to meet Bermuda’s entry requirements. This will require quite a bit of rearranging at this late date for cruisers who booked private shore excursions. Of course, it will also get Celebrity off the hook for trying to test the entire ship for COVID if they wanted to maintain the published itinerary. Celebrity began notifying TA’s and cruisers by e- Mail today. It would have been great if they figured this out a month or two ago.
  6. We are long past 30 days out( May 4 sailing) and have heard nothing. Our ship date is not even correct on the Bermuda Tourism website.
  7. Have they resolved the testing issue for cruises calling on Bermuda yet? You are supposed to submit a negative test taken two days before entering Bermuda but we will be on the ship for 5 days before we arrive. I have heard nothing from Celebrity re whether they will test us onboard. I believe that the Silhouette was supposed to dock in Bermuda on April 8? Wonder if they resolved the issue with that cruise?
  8. I believe you won’t be able to use that CC again to travel with Celebrity( don’t know about the card with Royal).
