No good for UK passport holders, we are not allowed into the USA.

Now, hopefully they will offer similar for Beyond prior to her first cruise from Southampton on 27/04/22.

We are allowed to fly to the US, but DW and I won't be travelling to Fort Lauderdale next month or any other time soon. Our next cruise out of Port Everglades isn't for another six months, and even that isn't a sure thing yet.

As of 8:30am eastern on Instagram there are about 50 posts - about probably about another 50 between facebook and twitter.

 

They are giving away 10 cabins - what is interesting is that many of these entries will be disqualified as it is clear people didn't read the fine print : )

We feel the same way. Fortunately, we had no cruises booked for 2021 or 2022. Hopefully we’ll be sailing somewhere in 2023. Fingers crossed.

What are they missing?

@amevola

 

Long and short of it - any group shot is an automatic disqualification 

[amevola]

Please be sure to read the entire "Official Rules" page before posting.  Otherwise, your posts may be disqualified.

For example, if someone other than/is in the picture with the entrant, the entry will be disqualified.  See the second point under "Content Restrictions."

 

I just want to prevent anyone from wasting time when entering.

 

Good luck to all who are entering!

clarifying the title - added website for contest

It would be a cool contest to win, but I won't be entering. I did a quick check of what it would cost and for me & DW to fly down from Canada and a night in a hotel would cost me as much if not more than the value of the 2 night cruise. Now, if it included airfare or even subsidized the airfare then I'd enter.

Seems only of value to those within easy driving range of the pier, or already in the area for other reasons.

My post was not not meant to dissuade CC members from entering.  It was meant to help them enter with correctly completed entries.

They are providing transportation to FLL - so it's more so people that have flexible schedules

We get off the Summit the day before and I would love to do this. However, Halloween is a HUGE event on our street. Certainly DH would understand if we won a free cruise.

I was just pointing out that for some Celebrity fans, myself included, the cost to claim the prize should we win will outweigh the cost of the prize itself.

How can you see the entries?

Go to Twitter or Facebook and do a search. I took a quick look at Twitter and just about every entry should be disqualified.

According to the official rules, they are not providing transportation. Here are copy & pastes

 

Winner and travel companion are each solely responsible for any and all costs, other than those specifically stated in these Official Rules, that may be incurred or arise as a result of being awarded a Prize. Such costs may include, but are not limited to all federal, state, local, or other government or quasi-governmental taxes and fees, travel to and from the cruise terminal in Hollywood, Florida

 

Nowhere in the prize description does it state that travel is included:

8. Prize: Ten prizes will be awarded. The prize is a two (2) night Inaugural Caribbean sailing for Winner and one (1) travel companion onboard Celebrity Apex in a double-occupancy Infinite Veranda stateroom (the “Prize”). Winner must be available to sail on October 31, 2021 (or another date determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion). Terms and conditions of Inaugural Sailing apply. ARV: $900.00 USD [Total ARV: $ 9,000.00]. Odds of winning dependent on number of eligible Entries received.

[canderson]

Yup.  RT Denver for a two night more hassle than value.  Heck, we won't cruise for less than 10 nts for the same reason.

I missed that last line - but I'm about a 30 minute drive to the port so for me that isn't a big deal

I can't quite figure out the rules. Do you have to be in the photo? Can there be unrecognizable people in the background or literally no other people in sight?

No need to be included in the photo, but you are the only one allowed to be in it. How strict they would be if there was someone in the background at such a distance as to be unrecognizable remains to be seen, but the rules do prohibit it.

Now I really wish I would have asked everyone to leave the pool deck when I took photos. Hindsight really is 20/20 😂

Did y'all win yet?

[analini]

Yes!  I learned today that I am one of the winners.  😀
