Craig 01020 Posted April 12, 2021 Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 I just noticed three 7-day cruises from NJ to Newport & Bermuda on Celebrity's website! I tried to book (on 3 different browsers), but I can't get past choosing a cabin. Has anyone been able to book one of these? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 01020 Posted April 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2021 Never mind. The booking page works if I don't include my Captain's Club number. Turns out it was too rich for me, but it was fun dreaming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used a TA, and our rate actually went down $500 after we booked it. They price check often and was pleasantly surprised! That difference would cover air for one of us at today's prices...hoping as the world opens up the air drops. Craig 01020 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 01020 Posted April 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2021 Thanks Kathy, I didn't see an option for a refundable deposit on Celebrity's website. Was your deposit refundable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was your deposit refundable? Mine is, yes. Usually it's a box to click towards the end of the reservation. I use a TA for my bookings, so I just request a refundable rate. cruisellama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisellama Posted April 15, 2021 Report Share Posted April 15, 2021 Will the Bayonne NJ port authority participate in a July start? Does the state gov't support? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Governor has currently "paused" all additional re-openings as our numbers were tracking really high. The last week they have been going down, but now with the pause in being able to offer the J&J vaccines it will delay additional vaccinations. I don't see him saying no if the CDC allows the re-opening though. But I also do not see him doing what the Florida governor is, and filing any lawsuits or pushing back. That being said, re-election is coming up. We shall see what noise the dock unions make. We already have such a busy port that we don't need the income from just the normal one ship each from Royal & Celebrity (and usually a second Royal in the summer.) The cruise industry isn't a big deal up here. cruisellama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
