    You wouldn't normally be told that by Celebrity as it is generally determined by the harbour master, not the cruise line. In any event, here isninfo...

    Report back on this when Saturday afternoon rolls around.

    Yes... we do it all the time.

    News to me. And here I thought the tides were a result of the gravitational pull of the moon.

    Are on board charges in euros? If so, it is not a surprise that your credit card company charges for foreign currency transactions; either through a fee or lumped in with the exchange rate. There are cards available that don't do this, but you're going to have to search them out and they'll likely charge you an annual fee far in excess of the fees you'll have to cough up on your cruise.

    I plan on wearing mine on a 15 night full transit; does that count?

    Safer to book the 2:00 pm flight ..... just answering the question!

    Well, since there doesn't appear to be a hard boundary on the amount of speculation permitted on this, I'd say the number of employees in the tip pool is more likely 1,000, not 500.

    I will.

    Thanks. Looking back on that one, I can see why it didn't make a great impression on me.

    ^^^^ Barnacles? Where did they raise their ugly heads from?

    Good luck trying ro fill in the form for a Maritime (cruise ship) arrival; it will only work for arrival by air. We'll see what happens pre-arrival Cartagena and at the port. Wouldn't surprise me if the authorities don't bother with the Canadians onboard just to avoid the hassle on their part.

    The electronic immigration form is available but can only be filled in for those arriving by air. We're doing a Panama Canal transit ove Xmas/New Years and will be visiting Cartagena.... my understanding is there will be a special line, upon entry, for Canadians to pay the fee.

    What sort of time frame are you looking at? Price of gas is generally lower than it was two years ago. At my local grocery store, the price of bananas hasn't changed in at least three years; a real price drop when factoring in inflation.

    Seems a wee bit out of place but, maybe, not entirely inappropriate.... especially if you spend too much time on the Princess app.

    Check out Oceania.

    Kind of a low bar for happiness. Why not go to five bucks here and there and reach out for a state of personal nirvana? I recognize this may be subject to diminishing returns....

    There you go; the capacity to spend money (and I am implying that they have plenty of money to spend) is not a good way to assess the character of people.

    Extra ammo for a ship-size cabin.

    Use your credit card and pay the fare and tip in Canadian dollars.
  21. d9704011
    OK, this seems different than what Fouremco said.

    Security screening service charge(s).

    There you go! Looks like it's a taxi.... now it's more about how much you pay and the mechanism. It is very easy to DIY at YUL but if HAL is looking for less than 60 CAD (say 45 USD), I'd take that.

    In Ontario, Shingrix vaccination is covered by the public health plan for people aged 65 to 70. Otherwise, you can pay and it costs about 200 CAD.

    If the choices are HAL transfer or taxi.... take the taxi. Although it's a bit of a ride, it will likely be faster, more comfortable and less expensive if there are two of you.
