Cool Cruiser (2/15)

Shocked at the price you pay. At my local, it is £50 ($60) for a one hour massage. And this why we never book spa treatments any more on cruise ships. We find their prices outrageous enough without adding an additional 18%. Feel quite sorry for the staff in the spa on the UK sailings, they are always standing around not working.

Sun Princess Signature suite questions answered!
Suite Susie replied to Sox Fan Cruiser's topic in Princess Cruises
Would love to know if the Orange Juice is freshly squeezed in the Signature Restaurant at breakfast on Sun. On Sky and Enchanted it was delicious in the Suite breakfast in Sabatini’s. -
You are probably right Hank, but our risking it for a B2B cruise in Europe next Spring, where the airfare risk won’t be as high for us living in the UK.

Does anybody else think it is a bit strange that Princess are charging the same price for the Owners Suites as the Sky Suites on most of their sailings on the new Sun Princess for this year and next. The Owners Suite has only one bedroom, is about half the size and does not come with the same Enhanced perks as the Sky Suites. On very few of their cruises, they are selling the Owners Suites at the price point that they should be at.

Well you were all right, Explora were only prepared to give us our deposit back which they have had for 6 months. Have cautiously rebooked with them for a back to back Med cruise for April / May 2025. Wasn't prepared to take the risk of booking a cruise with them where a long haul flight was needed. Needless to say we will be regularly checking that our new cruises are still being listed!

Having A nightmare with the Explora website. I was looking at a cruise for 2025 so did a mock booking on their website and it is now showing as an option and I can’t get rid of it. I haven’t confirmed it, but can’t seem to remove it. Anybody know how I could delete this cruise. If I do book I want to do it through a travel agent, not direct with Explora.
-
We are in the UK and our TA did not know about the change / cancellation. They contacted Explora today who said they had emailed them, which was never received. All very strange. Explora are supposed to be getting back to our Agent with some sort of resolution, but so far they haven’t. I’m just grateful that we discovered this before we had booked our flights and hotels etc.

We were just checking the dates of our Caribbean cruise booked on Explora II for March 25th as we would need to book our flights soon from the UK and our trip has totally disappeared from the Explora website. She is now sailing across the Atlantic at the time we were due to be on her. Have not been informed of this and are very disappointed. I’ll be calling my TA first thing in the morning to find out what is going on. Anybody else been affected by this?

Matters a lot to me. I adore fresh rolls and butter, so I hope there is a way of getting proper butter on board.

NOW I have a problem with the new Suite policies
Suite Susie replied to sixpackeddie's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Totally agree. Just off Edge in a Sky Suite. The Celebrity suite product is now not worth the considerable extra cost over other similar lines. We have booked two Princess cruises for next year and are looking at Regent, Silversea, Seabourn etc for 2025. -
Constellation Sky Suite - Who is Head Butler and Concierge?
Suite Susie replied to JDPCruisers's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Unfortunately you are unlikely to see a Butler at all. We didn’t. -
Just got off the Edge in a Sky Suite. We didn’t see a Butler at all and no explanation given by their absence. Our cabin steward did a great job, but it wasn’t quite the same as having a Butler as well. The Retreat team were very helpful, but I could never get an answer on the phone as they were too busy, so always had to queue up to speak to them. We did have a very enjoyable cruise, but cutbacks were very noticeable. The food in Luminae was disappointing, particularly breakfast and the dinner portions were very small and some odd things on the menu. Staff, service and entertainment were all good and Edge is a beautiful ship. Think this was our 11th Celebrity cruise, but will sadly be our last. Charging more, but giving you less is not what we signed up for.

Can Celebrity “Retreat” on Retreat Changes
Suite Susie replied to GBeason884's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Just got off the Edge in a Sky suite. Absolutely no Butler service and no explanation given. Room steward did a great job and the Retreat team did their best, but don’t even try to phone them for anything, as they always had a queue of people waiting to see them and couldn’t pick up the phone. Still had a nice time, but it is time to move on to pastures new. Don’t like paying more and getting less. -
