Arizona Wildcat

profcruise.com has lots of up to date pictures of bar menus. You can also do a Google search. There are lots of others that have posted recent beverage menus.

To answer your question, no. Again the 5 year drydock is required to certify as seaworthy. Has nothing to do with cosmetic issues. Replacing all "worn furniture " immediately? Think about what that could mean.

Certainly - there are several crew who have the job of maintaining and repairing stuff. If you want perfect best not go to any hotel, motel, airport, airplane or cruise ship.

Port specific. Pre covid in FLL - Yes. Am sure there are others beside Galveston and Miami, but really makes little difference to me. $1? Not worth arguing.

Assuming your question is serious; the Celebrity app and mobile website are stated kindly - somewhere between abysmal and often impossible. You absolutely do not need the app or a phone. All can be done at the pier. Just takes longer by a few minutes. Try clearing your cache, deleting and reinstalling the app. That MIGHT help. PS for some reason mine has been fine for several weeks.

Not good. If on a TA you would be denied boarding. Would guess in that case you would be required to provide a negative test and possibly another at the pier. Likely not the do it yourself kind that are on the honor system.

My comment was not directed toward you. Doing a search I found some 50 posts of people saying negative things about Infiniti. Many of those multiple posts by several posters. Also a similar number with only positives. Am glad you had hot water on Princess - we did not on multiple mornings. I thus took my showers in the evening. Problem solved. As well as dining issues that took 3 nights to sort out when their app failed and tendering at Cabo that took 2 hours in line to get a ticket followed by a 2 hour wait for the tender. The Emerald Princess looked tired. Crew worked hard but were very understaffed. Hope all lines working through that issue. My point is on Princess after giving up on dinner in the MDR and missing our shore excursion followed by no hot water we could have let it ruin our cruise. Instead we figured out solutions to make things better.

Agree - as long as we both have our phones nearby could tether or have a Hotspot. Works just fine. A router creates a private network from a public one while a Hotspot creates a public network using a mobile signal.

Was on this weekend as we're Aussie friends. No issues. Actually better than usual.

Port schedules change often. Last 5 cruises have changed or missed one port on each cruise. On your the order is different. Does that matter?

Infiniti is showing a bit of wear but is in better condition than most NCL and Princess ships. Remember that Celebrity was pitched as Modern Luxury. Compared to the other mass market brands it still is. Seems pretty much everything has taken a step down. I would take many reviews on CC as a complaint and not a real review. CC has had posters change from positive and helpful to way to much negativity. Would happily sail Infinity if they had an itinerary we liked. That and price should be your decision maker.

St Petersburg Russia was scheduled until the Ukraine War broke out. Cancelled almost the next day. Nicaragua was a port stop until the fight between the gangs/drug related and the government became more intense. Cancelled soon after. Cruising is a great way to get a tiny taste of a country. My best example is a shore excursion to Paris. 2 hours each way on a bus and 3 hours to "see" Paris. To see Isreal or Egypt you need a week or preferably more. As for Isreal as a port stop - 50/50.

Thank you for the smile. Think I will get one for my cruise in 2 weeks? Possibly not. Again I might have deleted it as it got lost in the twenty some emails I get each week.

Probably easiest if each can book for the same time and date. Then request same table on boarding.

Just show up and do it at check in at the pier.

Really simple. Get on board and see how the regular service works for you. If you are within a few hundred miles of land likely regular will be fine. If on a TA/TP cruise than probably need high speed and at times that will be VERY slow. Same for cruises to Antarctica and Greenland. Much of your download speed depends on how close you are to the router. Since not streaming videos etc, you could move to get the few documents you might need. No need to choose now. Also you might do a search as there are several threads on exactly this recently.

As said 24 hours ahead. Takes a minute or less. Go to checkin on the app.

I asked the executive staff. The $10 notice is not new and one needs to read the entire notice. Not just the first paragraph. Not cancelling specialty restaurants certainly should have a cost. The $10 mentions a cover charge. Not for select dining as no cover charge there. Much ado about another confusing wording by the IT staff.

Have never had a bag drop line. Always just handed to the porter. Your hotel concierge can also print them for you.

If you book additional excursions they will all be priced in USD. Compared to the thousands of $$ you will spend on your cruise the loss due to exchange rates is small. Really much the same for those travelling to Europe this summer as the USD has fallen by some 10% recently thus more expensive. Travelling out of one's home country certainly has an element of chance in how the exchange rate might change.

Last flight out of FLL we were there in plenty of time. While checking in several people who had missed their 9:15 flight as the luggage cutoff is 45 minutes before takeoff tried to rebook. They were told standby with nothing likely till the next day. All it takes is a delay in disembarking, a traffic accident creating a traffic jam or any of a couple dozen other issues to delay one's arrival.

Have never been "offered" the once a day service. Have seen door hanger type ads for the service and a note in the daily planner on every cruise. They do not push the green service. You need to request.

Interesting. Most people on my rollcalls are looking for private tours. For NOLA you could spend a week and not see it all using the trolley. From the Old Mint, WWII Museum to the French Quarter simply tour about using a day pass on the trolley.

In the perfectly clear concise language that Celebrity always uses (couldn’t resist) it appears that cruise requires fully vaccinated even though it is not technically a TA or TP cruise. Have a friend on that cruise who gave me info.

About 25% of slots are available for prebooking. Just do it on board.
