Anyone sailing on Celebrity Silhouette 8th October?

We are! We had to cancel our US road trip but am quite excited about the cruise now, especially as we are now able to leave the boat ourselves.

Just trying to decide what to do at each port now

Yes we got the email yesterday 😁. They only changed it last week so not sure why they have done a U turn again? Think they were loosing too many bookings personally, but pleased whatever the reason!

I think you’re right, but worked out for the the best. Can’t wait to get onboard. Have you had an email about the PCR tests yet?

No we haven't had anything about the PCR test yet? I've read people on the staycation cruises got them 10 days before?

There isn't a Eurofins testing place near us, but when dh phoned about something else, then asked, he said they are opening in Asda's around the country and to keep an eye out?

Hi POOTLE, never been on a cruise before, I have read somewhere that you have to pay vat on drinks and restuarants that you pay extra to dine in, are there any any additional charges?, we are on the silhouette on the 8th

If you are on the included drinks but have something from the premium options you will pay the difference between the included cost and the actual drink plus gratuity.

If you are in a suite or pay to upgrade the drinks package you get the premium drinks, but otherwise
anything that is optional is always the cost plus gratuity.

Just ask the staff if in doubt😉

Hope this makes sense!

You might care to take a look at what drinks are included in the drinks packages so you can see what you may need to pay a bit extra for if you stick with the included Classic package celebritycruises/con...yer_051721.pdfre.

Thanks for that, we upgraded our package to premium so looking forward to trying a few of the drinks on the list
