Going on my first B2B on the Freedom next Feb, Have the same cabin for both cruises, how does that work? What should I expect at the end of the first cruise? Thanks for all your help in advance :)

We've done a couple B2B's on a couple different cruise lines. Guest Service's will have a memo delivered to your cabin and to the other guest's cabins that are doing the B2B. They will have you meet at a designated location on board the morning of debarkation. They will go over the procedure.

 

Enjoy your B2B cruise.

We've been on a few B2B's too - you will LOVE it ! There's nothing like that feeling of knowing you don't have to go home after the first cruise !!

It's also nice staying on in the same cabin - no need to pack up everything. The process to "re-board" is easy too. As the previous poster mentioned, there will be a letter in your stateroom the night before telling you where to meet in the morning, usually 10'ish. Someone will come and get the group of B2B'ers and escort them downstairs to customs where you will show your passport, then you are escorted as a group back onboard.

We're doing our first b2b ever on the Freedom this September. From what I've gathered from reading posts about b2b's it's a really seamless process and doesn't take long! I'm really excited about having the ship (almost) to ourselves for a wee while!

We did a B2B and received the letter but it didn't tell us where to meet so we walked down to guest services and they were waiting for us in the lobby by the atruim. They took our old sign and sails cards, dinged us out and then gave us new cards. We were escorted off the ship, walked through customs and back on. Took 15 minutes top!

 

Make sure you tell your cabin steward you are doing the back to back. Also confirm with guest services that your booking is showing B2B. Just to make sure everything goes smoothly.

 

Your sign and sail account won't carry over to the next cruise. You will be issued a new sign and sail card for next cruise. If you accumalate points in the casino, they won't carry over.

 

Happy sailings!!

Also, if you wish, you can order your favorite alcohol from the Fun Shop on the first leg and it will be delivered to your cabin the last night of that leg making it available for your second leg. Enjoy.

Be sure to tell your room stewart and guest services. On my 1st B2B they did not know that my daughter and I were doing a B2B. And there was a little confussion amongst the staff on the ship as to who was suppose to escort us off the ship through customs and back on. Once they figured it out, it was quick and painless.
