Thanks!!!

Exactly the info I needed.

Our B2B is on Miami Boat Show day so we can walk over there and spend the day touring and pretending we can buy a multi-million dollar yacht. :D

Hi Phil,

 

Funny you should ask this as I've just been to enquire about this offer...

 

It was actually offered the rest of the week at $199 so I guess today's offer at $149 is the special offer! [emoji15]

 

I'll let you know if I can find anything else out [emoji4]

Top man!! :):):)

[MR_T]

That's a sad looking list of activities. Most of them are just sales opportunities. How times have changed.:(

 

 

To be honest I haven't really read any of the dailies properly as we don't really do much of the onboard activities, other then the talks they've had on the TAs we generally do our own thing!

Hope you having good time and not wearing those flipflops in the main dining room :D

 

 

 

We are on this cruise on the 19th and can't wait. Pics are great.

 

 

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] I actually got them flip flops from one of the water parks in Orlando about 5 years ago... I so wish I bought a few pairs as they are the best ones I've ever had and am ever likely to have as I haven't seen anything that comes close to being as comfy!

 

Saying that they have a few more trips in them yet! [emoji41]

On the Eclipse right now and were excited to know about the 4 new drinks at the World Bar. I took my phone and showed the bartender the Kentucky Calling and Sailor's Crush. He was able to make both of them for us. Really enjoyed them. Will try the Don Julio Palama tonight.

I will be on the Reflection tomorrow. What time was rooms ready on departure day? I don't want to arrive too early.

Rooms are generally ready from around 1pm onwards... I think ours was just after 1pm but in the past it's been closer to 1.30pm! [emoji4]

Would love to know alcohol carry on B2B rules. I am considering adding on the 5 night Constellation before my 13 night TA Constellation. No beverage package. May I carry on 4 bottles, since I am doing a B2B? If not, if I leave ship after 1st leg for the day, may I carry back on 2 bottles when I board for 2nd leg? I appreciate anything you can find out. THANK YOU.

It's only 2 bottles per cabin per cruise so you would need to get the extra when you stop...

 

Saying that if you packed 2 in you main luggage & carried on 2 there would be a high chance you will be ok! [emoji848] it's a risk only you can decide if it's worth it...

When you board the first cruise ask them to hold the 2 extra bottles for the cruise as if you bought them in port. That way they'll be delivered to your cabin the last day of that first cruise.

I've done that with liqueur that we bought as a gift in port from a cruise that was B2B on 2 different ships.

Do you mean ask security to hold them? I doubt I will get past security with them. When I cruised on the Constellation in December, security seemed disappointed that I knew the rules, lol. She started in on me assuming I was bringing on 1.5 litre bottles. I nicely informed her I was very aware of the 750ml limit on the bottles.

Or, purchase two in Key West, and check them in upon boarding to be delivered? For the Five day cruise stops are Key West and Cozumel.

Thanks, OP and chamima.

Doesn't Celebrity have a table just past Security to take liquor?

We bought the liqueur on a Celebrity cruise but the second cruise (where they held it for us) was on Princess. Princess has a table just past security to take extra liquor or wine beyond the two bottles.

 

If they don't have anyone there to take it I think I'd go with Mr. T's suggestion.

What does CLA stand for when printed in the daily programme? For instance CLA Trivia Quiz or CLA table tennis?

Celebrity Life Activity would be my guess

Thanks for the great review! My...a week goes by quickly. Since you are in buffet area, how about a pic of ice cream station? Or maybe, check to make sure it's still there!! Cruise on!

I thought it was a group booked on the cruise. We tried to go to the late night CLA late night comedian show and it was closed for a private party (on board group).

Day 5 - St Maarten - weather great & in the 80's [emoji41]

 

Last night -

We ate in the MDR and again had a great meal, all 4 of us have enjoyed everything we have eaten, if not before we will try all the speciality restaurants on the next week so that will be great as well I'm sure!

 

Drinks, we had drinks in the passport bar and we actually found the seats etc there the best out of the other s/class ships we've sailed on, we enjoyed a few pre-theatre drinks before watching the show, last nights was "centre stage" music from the hit musicals, this again was much improved from previous shows we've seen in the past, they do really seem to have invested big time in their shows onboard! [emoji51]

Today - AM

After an early arrival into St Maarten we jumped into a cab and headed to little bay beach, (pics below) this is very nice and lovely clear water with a sandy floor so very nice indeed, there is a slight dip about 5ft in but after that is a very gradual walk into the crystal blue waters,

 

Oasis of the Seas is parked up next to us and it really does make the reflection look tiny... We both want to try one of these mega ships one day but for now it's all about celebrity, I think I will book March 2018 tomorrow onboard (eclipse 14 night Caribbean)

 

Today PM - back at the ship for lunch in the buffet and a chilled out afternoon in the solarium & Persian gardens, both of which very chilled out and lovely, we tried out the sauna, steam & cold rooms which were all good, I will get some pictures of these areas when we are in Miami on Saturday for switch over day!

 

Tonight I think it's the MDR again & a combination of the martini bar and another... There's a comedian in the theatre tonight so might give him a go, I think we have seen him before and he was quite funny! [emoji848]

 

Below are a few pics from today with others to follow [emoji4]

 

 

eclipse 2018 ! hope its the late January one Mr_T [emoji41]

Unfortunately not, March 18th! Jan/Feb is just a little early in the season for us, plus works starting to restrict to 2 weeks off at a time so this one over laps with Easter so that saves a couple of days! [emoji4]
