Money Exchange

Can you get $ and € on board Eclipse, or would l need to get from the bank before l leave:confused:, first time on Celebrity

What do you need the money for and where are you coming from ?

You can exchange British pounds for both dollars and Euros, but the exchange rate isn't very good. There are also Automatic Teller Machines on board where you can withdraw cash, but the fees are pretty high (per transaction $6)

You will be far better off getting the currency you need either in advance from your bank or from an ATM machine in the country you'll need the currency for. ATM machines will give the best rate. Getting the money in advance is the most convenient.

 

Exchange rates on board are usually not very favorable and sometimes they do not have a good amount of currency to exchange.

I agree. We bring as much currency as we think we are going to need. Since we will be doing the Trans Atlantic from Barcelona to Fort Lauderdale next month we will bring Euros to buy small gifts during our travels and dollars for additional tipping on the ship. Al of our ship board expenses are put on a credit card. We always carry a second card just in case of an emergency. Happy travels
