I just received notice that Celebrity has cancelled the 4/1 cruise due to the fact that all UAE closed their ports to cruise ships. 
Guests will receive full refund plus 25% FCC. Also up to $300 pp reimbursement for airline change fee. 

Last week on the Quest I did an internet speed test. Ping was 689 ms. Download at 0.52 Mbps and upload at 0.26Mbps.

As already mentioned this is good for email and Facebook.

Tonight the band magically emerged. Must have been the magician onboard doing his tricks. [emoji2]

So, one thing less to worry about.

That's what I remembered. But no band to be seen. The Living Room only has the guitarist and the DJ. Maybe the band will join us after passing the Gulf of Eden. But somehow it is strange.

Indeed, life is good onboard. Only thing that's missing is a band. So far I only saw a piano player and a guitarist.

We were on the same cruise. Our experience was totally the opposite. We never had a bad meal on this cruise. But then again. Quality of food is subjective.

We would do a Food & Wine cruise again.

Han L. Did you book the transfer to NCE in advance or once you were on board?

We booked on board.

We disembarked the Sojourn a few weeks ago in Monte Carlo and took the Seabourn shuttle. Left the pier at 9. It took about 45 min to get to the airport. Check-in for your flight will open 2 hours before scheduled departure.
