Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I've never done this but I won't turn down an 8% discount. Are these electronic gift cards that I can use pretty much immediately? I've got my final payment due soon.
  2. About how big would you say the Galapagos tortoises were that you saw? It's hard to tell from the photos.
  3. I'll be on the 8/21 Apex sailing with an overnight in Copenhagen. I'll just be glad to get a shuttle whether it's free or $20. From what I have read, taxis are very expensive --like $50 for a 15 minute taxi ride-don't know how accurate that is and they don't have Uber there. Even though the transportation there is supposed to be excellent, I understand that you can't just tap your card and go--you have to buy a ticket or download the app (which you can't add your credit card until you get into Denmark), plus I've read that buses only take cash. I hope I am wrong on some of this info but this is what I have recently read.
  4. I'm currently booked on Apex with an Edge Stateroom with Infinite Veranda and considering making an offer to Moveup. It seems like some of the "upgrades" really aren't much. So at what point is there really a difference in the room/amenities/service? We are already all inclusive drinks/wifi/tips. It appears that Concierge and Aqua Class aren't much of an upgrade. Is that correct? How about Sky Suite, Sunset Sky Suite and Aqua Class Sky Suite. Which would you choose and why? Thanks!!
  5. Following as we will be on the Apex August 21.
  6. Good to know. I just booked that hotel pre-cruise!
  7. We are on that one! as long as it's the one that arrives in Amsterdam on September 2.
  8. OP update! I called first thing this morning, no wait. The guy saw the problem right away; I had bought the tips/wifi/drinks package but they charged me for tips again. He fixed the problem right away and sent me a new zero-balance invoice. I was on the phone a total of five minutes! YAY!
  9. OP here. I did call them but my hold time was estimated to be 94 minutes.... I'll try tomorrow. But I did go through it line by line to try to compare the original vs the "additional $420 owed." When I booked there was the total cost including the drinks/wifi and tips package which I bought. There was no choice to pay less than the total amount due and I was fine with that (I think that was a requirement since it was less than 90 days out??) There's a bunch of extra plusses and minuses on $420 balance owed confirmation which is confusing. There is one for tips for $420 so I think I am being charged twice for that since it was already included in the tips/wifi/drinks package. I'll update when I get an answer.
  10. I booked a Celebrity cruise on 5/25 for August (less than 90 days out) paid in full, received confirmation, zero balance, no problem with credit card etc. But today I received a 2 am email stating a balance due of $420 or they will cancel my cruise "by the due date below" but there is no due date mentioned. I tried calling them but they are closed!! It says they are open from 9 am on weekends but not sure if they will be open because of the holiday... I haven't traveled Celebrity in nine years and this is not a good start. Anyone have this happen, was it a "glitch" or what?? Thanks!
  11. Following this. I'll be on this cruise in August. Just booked yesterday.
  12. I did it a couple of weeks ago. I went to guest services at the Denali Lodge and wanted to change to the Tundra Wilderness tour that was scheduled for the next day. She couldn't get hold of anyone there at the time but called me back about an hour later and said there was no availability. I went there again a couple hours later, spoke to a guy who called and really pushed for them to "find a seat for us." He did! And it was a better time for us; the first was about 8 am and the one we got was about 2 pm so we didn't have to rush in the morning. It was something like $35-$50 more per person.
  13. We did the upgrade less than two weeks ago. It cost $35 extra pp. But we didn't do it until we got there. Went to guest services, they couldn't get hold of the vendor so called me back and said nothing was available for the next day. I then went to gs and spoke to another guy (who happened to be from the same city as me-so we had something in common)--anyway he really pushed to get us on the upgrade and they "found" two seats. Plus it was a better time. The original was about 9 am and this was about 3 so we could sleep in a bit.
