  1. Good Afternoon We will have an overnight in Copenhagen June 3, during our Celebrity cruise we are 8 adults and a 2 year old I was,thinking of Tivoli the first day ,but not sure about the 2nd day we will be in port until 7 PM on day 2 We are all good walkers,and love the outdoors thanks in advance Nancy
  2. On air by Celebrity I was able to choose whatever airline I wanted and also business class no if I find a better deal before final payment I just cancel the FBC
  3. I also liked not having to pay until final payment,I kept my eye on flights in case I found a better deal
  4. We did flights by celebrity pre COVID and had some issues with a short layover which caused us to miss our connecting flight, but as promised we were booked on a new flight and had our hotel covered. Recently, we booked with FBC and had to cancel our trip at the last minute due to a medical emergency,we received our money back minus the $200 within 30 days.
  5. We are leaving on the Reflection on September 21 Barcelona to Barcelona, schools will be back in session so less kids. Enjoying your review
  6. I have waited at immigration for a while that would be the only issue
  7. We always fly in 3 days early for an international cruise, as we live in Florida we drive to the port.
  8. I did the Edge in Mediterranean in October, loved everything about it,food was fabulous, loved the ship Did the Apex in the Caribbean in March was disappointed in the food, loved the ship, Doing the Reflection in September French and Italian Rivera ..
  9. My daughters and their husbands travel with us to Europe as often as I invite them. we did a large family trip to Ireland 6 years ago, 4 years ago we did a Greek cruise as what we refer to as the recovery cruise. my youngest DD was given a kidney from her sister
  10. I had to cancel a cruise as my daughter started dialysis after a failed kidney transplant Unfortunately, I did not take the insurance, first time ever.. I lost every penny, and this was a cruise rescheduled twice due to Covid Painful lesson learned Good Luck and I hope a healthy outcome
  11. I did almost the same itinerary last October on the Edge, it was such a wonderful trip, I’m looking forward to experiencing it again through your review I also live in Florida, Port St Lucie
  12. We were on the Apex last week as well and the menu is definitely cut back, no prime rib, no lamb, and an extra charge for an additional lobster very disappointing
  13. I have been at Eden on both the Edge and Alex, wonderful food, we went twice on both trips, I did find the shrimp appetizer different on Edge and Apex The crab cake was on of the best I have had and I have had many in Maryland ..lol i did not find the music to loud or distracting. The wait staff was wonderful
  14. I would hope that you would not want to board the ship knowing you are positive, and would test correctly, but the new rules certainly allow for fudging the results. I suppose it comes down to integrity and doing the right thing even when no one is watching. I am currently in Rome waiting to board the Edge on Friday, I will test tomorrow, I tested before getting on the plane, and after all negative
  15. So we are in a VBRO in Rome right now, it is listed in VBRO as Silver Fern We checked in yesterday after flying from Washington DC So the Pros: 1.clean, 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths with step in showers, sleep 7 , but one of the rooms has a queen bed and a single 2. Washer / Dryer which works well we already did a load 3. Elevator You can easily walk to a small grocery store, a bar, a few restaurants, and a place for gelato,we ate breakfast in a nice local place outside we did walk to the Colosseum last evening, there is a nice park near by with outdoor eating the bus is on the corner 4. working WiFi the Cons: 1. Outdated, yet clean 2. no A/C but it is cool now, but the summer might be very hot, there are fans in each room. 3. bare bones, and I mean bare, no welcome basket or welcome letter, nothing we had to make our own beds , we had linen brought to us ,all clean and fresh no living room , there is a nice kitchen with a big window and a table with 6 chairs, but no place to just sit and hang out Overall if you want a clean place to sleep it’s good, but not even close to luxurious ,it is definitely in a local residential neighborhood Well that’s it, I am happy to answer any follow up questions
  16. We are going on the Edge from Rome October 14, looking forward to a new experience, have been on Celebrity ships since they were Chandris !!
  17. We are leaving on the Edge from Rome 10/14 and have received my 2nd move up email in a week. All for concierge and above
  18. The treasure coast was luckily not affected by Ian,
  19. We missed a connection, and missed our overseas flight we had booked through Celebrity and had a flight out of Orlando in the summer with only 2 hour layover in Newark for Paris I knew the chances of a thunderstorm in the afternoon was high, so I asked for a flight 3 hours earlier, I went through the entire we will check and get back to you, etc etc in the end they refused to change the flight!! As I predicted a storm delayed our departure,we missed our flight to Paris . Flights by Celebrity, did get us to Newark that night, transportation to a horrid hotel was provided and the next day we were on our way to Paris. We had an extra week in France before our cruise so that was fine, I did have insurance that covered our transportation and hotel is Paris But I missed a day in Paris I hope all goes well for the OP
  20. We are staying in a VBRO in Rome in 2 weeks, we are 6 adults, it is advertised as air conditioned, has a washer/dryer, elevator, and is in a good location for walking. I can report back after the trip if you like
  21. Similar thing happened to me with FBC, our flight from Florida to Newark was in the afternoon in the summer, with only an 1hr and 10 minute layover.before out flight to Paris. there was an earlier flight out of Florida, but they refused to change it I fought it for weeks. so, our flight from Florida was delayed, due to thunderstorms,we missed our Paris flight and spent the night in a hotel in Newark!!! Never Again
  22. I have always been able to get a set on board.
  23. We used CA to fly to Europe, we were arriving in Paris a week before the cruise. Our flight from Orlando to Newark was delayed because of weather ,so we missed our overseas connection. We flew late to Newark.spent the night in a hotel and were rebooked on our Newark to Paris flight the next day. we lost a day in Paris,
