Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. I'm going to use this company https://myhktour.com/. for my transfer and tour. Their rates are more reasonable than a few other company that I've contacted previously. Our Celebrity Solstice will be arriving in Hong Kong on March 15th.
  2. Thank you everyone for your input. I thought it was quite strange to have so many copies. I've been on several Asia cruises and never encountered that request, therefore the confusion. I have already laminated a copy of my passport to put in my purse as well as a copy on my phone. I greatly appreciate all of you for your time and assistance. Twee
  3. Hi everyone, Did you all had to bring a printed copy of your passport for all the ports? I know Celebrity will keep our passport until the end of the cruise. My travel agent gave me information that states "Bring your passport, a photo of the ID page on your phone, and one printed copy per port visited." Does this mean I need to bring with me 7 printed copies of my passport since we will be visiting 7 ports? Thanks for the assistance.
  4. Thank you upwarduck. Many years ago I bought the MacBook Air with my OBC. I have a family of 6 going and so there's 3 separate cabin bookings, with $400 OBC per cabin. I hope Celebrity will let me use all three separate OBC for the purchase of the MacBook Air.
  5. Thank you Mahdnc. WOW, that's quite a small selection.
  6. I'm about to apply for my Vietnam e-visa. What did you put on the line "Agency/Organization/Individual that the applicant plans to contact when enter into Viet Nam".? Can I skip it and put nothing? or put "Not applicable" or do I put my Celebrity Solstice ship info? Please kindly assistance. Thank you.
  7. Thank you so much for the reference. I appreciate your time and assistance shuyak.
  8. Hello everyone, I will be on the Solstice in March and wanted to know what Apple products are available on the ship that you can purchase. I have some onboard credit and wanted to see if I can purchase something while on the ship. If anyone has checked out the iLounge store recently, please kindly let me know what items you noticed. Thank you for any information. Twee
  9. Hi everyone, I'm trying to figure out transfer for my family of 6 adults (with 2 elderly parents) from Kai Tak cruise terminal in Hong Kong to our hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui area of Kowloon on March 15, 2024. Our ship will dock there at 6:00 am, so I assume we will need to get off the ship by 8:30 am at the latest? We will need to go through immigration afterwards before heading out to our transport. I've heard that taxis are not adequate (hopefully this is still not the case) at this cruise terminal, so I'm trying to arrange a private transfer. However, I'm not sure what time to inform them to pick us up. Does anyone know roughly what time I should book my transfer? Would 9:30 am be about right? If anyone has disembarked from Kai Tak cruise terminal in the last 6 months, please kindly let me know what your experience was at this terminal. Thanks for any assistance.
  10. Thank you for the information. I appreciate you taking the time to respond to my question.
  11. Hello all, My family and I will be arriving in Singapore on embarkation day (March 3, 2024). Our flight lands at 8:30 am and our Celebrity Solstice will depart Singapore at 5:00 pm. I plan to book a van with driver using Kler Transportation Services https://klertransport.com/ to pick us up at the airport and then take us around the city before dropping off at the MBCC port. Because my family has not visited Singapore before, I want to maximize the most time possible to see some of the main attractions. Our group of 6 includes 2 elderly mothers that can not walk too much so I plan on doing quick photo stops instead of spending much time at those attractions. I will email Celebrity to see if they can provide answers, but in the meantime, I'll post this question here. Assuming we clear airport customs by 9:30 at the latest, is it a sound suggestion to book a 5 hour transfer/tour, with us being dropped off at the port by 2:30-3:00 pm? Or should I play it safe and be at the terminal by 2:00pm? Any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
  12. I did book with the company directly and I had a group of 14. If you can go through cruisecritic.com roll call for your cruise, I don't think you would have a problem forming a group. I was able to adjust the sightseeing a bit to have more time at the Troll's Road. We paid by credit card (or cash if you wish) on the bus when we got back to the ship. The owner and driver have been in the business for many years but decided to purchase his own van (right before Covid). If I was to return to Alesund, I would definitely book with him again.
  13. I've recently returned from our NCL cruise and used Royal Tur Reiser for my private tour to the Trolls Road from Alesund. I had used Norway Excursions previously but they didn't offer a private on the date that I needed. Rolf, the owner and driver, was very prompt in answering my emails . He has a brand new vehicle than can seat 16 people. We paid on the day of the tour with the credit card after our tour. He was waiting for us at the port and promptly took us on the Trolls to Fjords route to the famous Trollstigen road. I had a group of 16 people and had a wonderful time. I highly recommend him highly. If anyone is interested, his website is https://royalturreiser.no/. His tours are also available on Viator.
