We were on the Constellation in Mar and we were able to order from any menu. Every night our server would bring us all 3 menus and we never asked for them. Is it the Maitre’d or the server. Call me a liar?? I am giving my experience. I don’t make up stuff just to make it up. Whenever we were on a M class in Luminae we could always order from the other menus. They also use to have the menus in Michaels Club. Why would they do that if you couldn’t order off of them? I don’t know if they still do because of the app. Your comment could apply to anything. I could say we were able to get a certain liquor on the premium drink pack. Is it across the board? The other ships may not carry it. Am I wrong for saying that? I could say that our butler provided us with …. Is it across the board? Don’t know. Can just report on my experience. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

Wear over size clothes. 🤷‍♂️😱 Do you really think others are looking at you. If you are than George Burns said it best. Women dress to impress other women if not they would just wear a hat and maybe sunglasses to keep the sun out of their eyes. Just be sure that you don’t do this Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

In March we played our OBC in the slots and weren’t charged any fees. You do have to run thru 50% of what the amount you used to play. Eg If you put in $100 you have to play at least $50 before cashing out, such as playing $5/ play you would need to play 10 times. If you cash out before that you will get the cash but the next time you try to play anymore OBC you will find that your account is locked. Things may have changed as it use to be 10% but I think too many people were doing that. It also use to be that you could just cash in at the cashier without playing for a 5% fee. We have also found that different ships have different policies. Last year we did a side by side cruise on a M class and S class. The casinos had different rules OBC rules, and also different pay schedules on the VP machines. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

The cabins that are on the angle have larger balconies. The cabins are also about 3 to 4 ft deeper. I know this as we were in one for a B2B cruise and had to change to another SS that wasn’t on the angle. We could immediately see the difference. The Persian Gardens on the M class aren’t the same as o. The E and S class. There is no heated loungers. It has a heated bench inside a room with no windows. Like being in dungeon. Being able to dine in Blu is no big deal because in Luminae on the M class you can order from any menu. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

Don’t miss the ship. Dont be an idiot and get sunburned the first day or any day. Even in the shade you can get burned from the reflection of the rays Don’t drink too much on the first day. It will still be there tomorrow. Don’t enter the raffles unless you want to be flooded everyday with useless sales papers and phone messages. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

We have gone to the CC lunch because of doing a B2B. We were also able to do the Luminae lunch when in a suite. Neither one is anything to get excited about. It is a lunch. Think about it What do you normally have for lunch? This is a time to try something different that may not appeal to you. You may find a new favorite. It is basically something to hold you over until dinner and if it isn’t enough there is always something available later in the the day in the buffet It is basically a time to be able to relax after the tiring and maybe stressful morning by being served instead of the self serve hog trough.

We do the same. Most times the wines listed aren’t available. I think they are there just to fill the menu. The sommelier also seems to like having the freedom of being able to recommend something. One of the reasons we enjoy a cruise is to be able to try different entrees, and drinks that we normally wouldn’t have. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

I was on the Seashore in Feb. The bourbon selection was very poor. If I recall Buffalo Trace was the only bourbon. They kept telling me that I the liquor supply hasn’t been distributed from the hold. It was only a 3 day cruise. A person that was on the previous cruise doing a B2B told me that they gave the same excuse on the last cruise. I am a bourbon drinker. Was very disappointed in the selection. We were in the YC. I am not a bourbon snob. I drink mostly bottom end like MM, Wild Turkey, Rebel (Yell). Four Roses, and yes J.T.S. Brown Fast Eddie “Preach. J.T.S. Brown, no glass, no ice”. The Hustler. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

If you are on a E class ship it isn’t a benefit. M class. Why bother. When on board it doesn’t hurt to try. It depends on who is at the desk. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

When held in the Sky Lounge it was considered an event. Lately they have been having some Elite HH in the Sky Lounge and the other person should/may be able to attend. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

I have had it apply to side by side cruises with Celebrity. It was a different ship, and port. At the time I was told that the cruises had to be within 3 days of each other. Mine was 1 day apart. Things keep changing and I don’t know if is still possible. Never hurts to ask. Also If you don’t like the answer the first time get a different agent or ask for someone higher up.

Take a cloth with a magnet attached. Have a matching magnet. Put the cloth on the outside of the window and mate the magnets. Slide the magnet over the pane of glass. Helps to slide with a piece of cloth under both magnets. I think many with aquariums clean the inner side of the glass using this method. Try it at home first Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

We have been in suites and IV cabins. The only difference for us was the size of the cabin. We purchased the all included package when not in a suite and upgraded to the premium. You get the better speed internet and premium drink pack with a suite. When we sailed in the suite we felt there was a lot of redundancy. We are Elite in the Captains Club so we had access to the breakfast. There was also the Eden Cafe, MDR, Spa Cafe, and buffet for breakfast choices. With the drink pack we could go to any bar. Didn’t need to go to the Retreat lounge and rarely used it. We spent more time in the public areas than in the retreat areas. As others mentioned you won’t notice that the Retreat area exists. It is in an area you probably won’t go near. Too many other great areas to use. With the price difference between the suites and a regular cabin I doubt we will be ailing anymore in a suite. YES you can go back after being in one. We have done it and didn’t really miss it. Actually felt better as we still had the extra cost in our bank account to use for another cruise.

In your cabin there will be a little sea pass/ credit card holder. It has 3 slots. If you lose it GR will replace it and void the other card. I always keep my pass in that when on board and leave my wallet in the safe. I have found that the door can be opened with the card inside the holder. No need to take out for that When going on shore I will also take that holder. I will also put my passport card, credit card and some cash in it. That is all I need. My wallet stays in the safe.

No. I wouldn’t like to see that happen. If it did it would turn out like many other loyalty programs where there are so many getting into the higher levels that those levels becomes meaningless and the benefits become reduced or eliminated. It would dilute the program. I belonged to a casino rewards program like many others. They started applying points for credit card use. The highest level was diamond. Now that level has few benefits or status. It was replaced by ruby, platinum, and now I think black plus there are also a more exclusive level that is obtained thru gaming and not from credit card use. . Zenith is hard to obtain as it should be, but it will become the equivalent of select if they start rewarding points for credit card use. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅
