Hi Lynn,
   My husband and I will be on the Galaxy on 5/31 also. At this point we are tentatively planning to take an early train out to the port and maybe a cab from there (I understand it is about a mile or so from the metro station.)
   I haven't been on Celebrity before but did take a Med cruise two years ago on Orient's Crown Odyssey. We were allowed to board the ship about 2p.m. Upon return, we docked at 7am and were on the ground ready to board the busses after picking up our luggage around 9 or 9:30.
Like you, I've seen few posts regarding this particular cruise. I was dissappointed that Istanbul and Ephesus was cancelled but everyone raves about Dubrovnik. We've been to a few of the ports before but are looking forward to enjoying them at a more leisurely pace. Are you and your husband travelling by yourselves? E-mail me if you would like to stay in touch.
   Doreen

[QUOTE="DeeBee, post: 700109"] Hi Lynn, My husband and I will be on the Galaxy on 5/31 also. At this point we are tentatively planning to take an early train out to the port and maybe a cab from there (I understand it is about a mile or so from the metro station.) I haven't been on Celebrity before but did take a Med cruise two years ago on Orient's Crown Odyssey. We were allowed to board the ship about 2p.m. Upon return, we docked at 7am and were on the ground ready to board the busses after picking up our luggage around 9 or 9:30. Like you, I've seen few posts regarding this particular cruise. I was dissappointed that Istanbul and Ephesus was cancelled but everyone raves about Dubrovnik. We've been to a few of the ports before but are looking forward to enjoying them at a more leisurely pace. Are you and your husband travelling by yourselves?
