We were B2B on the Wish last month. We did the 3-night and then the 4-night that was extended 2 more nights due to Hurricane Ian! First, you should know B2B cruises are considered completely different and separate cruises, and therefore have different Port Arrival QR codes, Safe Passage QR codes, Health Questionnaires, Key to the World Cards, tip envelopes, photo packages, (all other packages ie. wine, etc.), validating your Mandatory Lifeboat Station on the app, and onboard charging portfolios. Your Room Steward, Head Server, Server, and Assistant servers will already know you're doing B2B. The Room Steward will move your stuff if you have a different cabin for the 2nd cruise, but you will need to have everything packed by 8am on the last morning. If you have the same cabin for the 2nd cruise, you can keep everything unpacked. The Head Server will ask if you want to keep your serving team from the 1st cruise or if you'd rather have a new serving team.
On the last day of your 1st cruise, you'll receive a letter in your cabin with all the details about doing the B2B. People changing cabins were requested to be out of their cabin by 8am and could go in their 2nd cabin at 1pm (even though everyone else had to wait until 2pm). On the last morning of the 1st cruise, we needed to complete the Health Questionnaire for the 2nd cruise. Marceline Market was open for breakfast until 8:30am. Debarkation began around 7am and we were asked to debark by 9:15am with all of our important cruise documents: passport (or birth certificate & driver's license), Key to the World Card, PAT QR code, Safe Passage QR code, and the B2B Card included with the letter (we were not given a designated meeting place, just to debark on our own). We debarked at exactly 9:15 with LOTS of other regular cruisers who's cruise ended with this one. Our KTTW cards were scanned (that we debarked this cruise) and everyone proceeded through immigration. We were sent outside the front of the terminal and those who needed covid testing were sent to the tents across the street and those of us who were fully vaccinated were allowed to reenter the terminal like we had done 3 days prior. We completed check-in for the 2nd cruise, then went through security screening and back upstairs to the waiting room. There were approximately 150 of us and we all waited in the rows of chairs closest to the boarding "Ears." The letter said we would embark the 2nd cruise around 11am, but actual time was 11:15am. There was no announcement made, they just sort of motioned us to come board. We were in the same cabin, so we stopped there 1st to put our cruise documents and wallets back in the safe and drop off our backpack. Then, we went to Cove Cafe, where they had complimentary coffee and a few pastries, but not many seats, so we didn't stay. Marceline Market Bar was also open for coffee and pastries, but we didn't go there. Marceline Market was not open for lunch until closer to noon. I don't know about AquaMouse. Shops are always closed while in a port. Anyone could line up for dining changes outside Luna (facing the main entrance, the line snaked around the corner to the left) but they didn't let anyone in before 1pm. Hope this helps!
