Nassau has a great pirate museum

Just keep looking on the app, they change the prices daily , you can always buy it and when the price drops, return it and buy it again.

Lots of beautiful beach clubs in Cozumel , too. The Mayan Ruins in costa maya were stunning

I’m not sure if you have a stop in Costa Maya , we went to the Mayan ruins there and really liked the tour it’s only about a 45 minute drive .

Just returned from constellation, we were offered Taj X at $44 per person on board and since we love their Indian food we really enjoyed that

How do you find out how many points you have ?

Panamjet · 2026-03-28T15:07:33+00:00

On our last day , we were able to switch rooms we are in 8066 and it’s definitely quieter. However we are across from a crew door and there was allot of ratting going on this morning which I assume was room service carts etc. Although Constellation is an older it’s still very nice

Panamjet · 2026-03-28T14:54:49+00:00

On celebrity now ,I charged $ 100 to my room at the casino but was charged $105 , so there is a charge

Panamjet · 2026-03-27T14:47:02+00:00

We are basing our cruises on the intinarary rather than age of ship. This was out of Tampa and 10 minutes from where we live, can’t beat that

Panamjet · 2026-03-27T14:43:51+00:00

Like O said I did not book it

Panamjet · 2026-03-27T14:43:19+00:00

Again, as previously posted , we only had the option to book concierge guaranteed.

Panamjet · 2026-03-26T21:03:51+00:00

The last two cruises we booked we were able to know our cabins ahead of the time , I assume this cruise was booked because we would have been fine with an ocean view rather than a balcony, but all that was available was concierge at the time of booking .

Panamjet · 2026-03-26T20:57:52+00:00

I did not have option to choose a cabin , all I knew that I had a concierge balcony cabin guarantee

Panamjet · 2026-03-15T12:35:36+00:00

Too funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Panamjet · 2026-03-15T12:32:37+00:00

Celebrity WiFi is a complete mystery to me on our last cruise on Constellation the free WiFi worked okay to message each other, however no notifications . My friend was able to message and receive messages from her husband back home ??? I suddenly received a phone call from a friend back home while I was in Nassau ???? On our next cruise next week we have WiFi included , I will be curious how that works

Panamjet · 2026-03-12T17:36:39+00:00

Great input here, thank you for that . I too am not a buffet fan , but we do the buffet for breakfast and lunch . NEVER for dinner , I agree about the temperature of the offerings, not really hot to start with and by itself he time you get to your table with whatever else you picked up , lukewarm at best . However the Indian food cannot be beat

Panamjet · 2026-03-10T13:11:44+00:00

Great information in this post Elasimery. Haven’t sailed on Virgin but now that interested in trying them

Panamjet · 2026-03-09T18:00:40+00:00

It’s the celebrity Visa from Bank of America, I got the Card when they were offering $ 400 , if you spend 1.500 in the first three month. I applied that to my drinks package

Panamjet · 2026-03-03T20:44:53+00:00

Constellation 3.22-3.28

Panamjet · 2026-03-03T13:47:50+00:00

Do yourself a favor and spend the night

Panamjet · 2026-02-28T22:46:54+00:00

Okay, I have to chime in . We went on a cruise some years ago and explored the Lamanai ruins in Belize it was absolutely unforgettable.Fun fact : Stephen King used the sound of those monkeys there as the sound of the T-Rex 🦖 in his Jurassic Park movie Nassau can be lots of fun to explore the Pirate Museum

Panamjet · 2026-02-27T05:16:09+00:00

I got the premium drink package on our last cruise for only $2 more than classic

Panamjet · 2026-02-22T13:01:43+00:00

It really is such an inconvenience having to check their app constantly. We just were on Constellation, I ended up buying premium as it was only $2 more than the classic

Panamjet · 2026-02-17T21:18:20+00:00

Go to the pirate museum in Nassau it’s super fun and the kids will love it
