I only mentioned this because the bottom of the receipts sad 18% but they charged 20%. I thought it was a recent change.

Just got back from Bermuda trip. The trip itself was fine although due to weather had to leave Bermuda a day early. Can't really blame anyone because of weather. Still really love Bermuda and will probably go again. The travel application process for Bermuda was easy. Just had to follow the directions on the Bermuda website. The few extra dollars Bermuda charges for the application is pretty small compared to all the other costs of travel. Although still a little annoyed at Celebrity for switching the order of ports. As to COVID, unfortunately at this point it is endemic and at some point everyone will probably get it. Doesn't matter if you travel or stay home. You just need to do what you have to for yourself. Vaccinations, high quality mask, etc. Also pick the travel you are comfortable with.

Not sure about the other ships however Summit wifi with AI is pretty bad.

I assume by now everyone knows the gratuity is now 20%.

Very nice.

Thank you. I didn't realize there is an order to this.

This I know.

I believe the question was more about the whole experience: a sit-down tea service where they have little carts going around with scones, maybe clotted cream, small pastries, small sandwiches (eg, cucumber sandwiches), maybe even some live background music.

Does Celebrity do afternoon teas like Cunard?

Are we supposed to upload a negative COVID test result or just bring it to the pier?

I have heard that if you want cash (and not FCC) you need to specifically ask for it, assuming you paid cash and not a FCC to book the cruise.

It looks like heavy winds on June 6 so I am thinking the cruise ship may have to leave earlier than scheduled. Are they likely to leave in the middle of the night or the previous afternoon?

Does the ferry run in rain? It looks like there will be rainy on Saturday.

What countries do you stop at?

Yes run the numbers. You may find that after you add in gratuities and wifi the drink package is minimal extra cost and a couple of waters, coffees and a soda or 2 you are breakeven.

Like siriusXm, just music.

From those who have traveled to Bermuda and used the Emed test, any issues?

The Bermuda website lists lots of requirements for the supervised Antigen test such as: test result must state the traveller's full name and date of birth and contact information (address, email) -EMED doesn't include contact info

With the basic internet package included with AI is there enough bandwidth for music?

I would suggest google maps. Then print it out.

The increase may have been within the last month.

Not exactly related to the opening question however, does Celebrity honor their statement of "Never Left Behind." I have an excursion booked on an upcoming cruise that gets in fairly close to departure.

FYI, some travel agents don't participate.

Upgrades are now running around $16 a day.

Sailed in February. Entertainment was good. Food, not so much.
