What A Market

You will love this suite. I’ve been fortunate enough to book twice (once on the Marina and once on the Riviera’s maiden voyage). Threw some great parties there.

Just got off cruise last month. Per my TA and confirmed with Shoreside Concierge, Celebrity is no longer selling Retreat Passes. We could pay though a set per person fee if our friends wanted to join us in Luminae for breakfast or dinner. There did not seem to be a limitation of number of times we could do this. (Not 100 percent certain on this.) We were sailing in an RS for this latest cruise.

Yes

Good question. I wasn’t really sure what I would be charged. (Other than I knew it was $29 for something….) Looks like I was charged $29 for the two bags. Other airline charges, per bag, were applicable. There were exemptions from the added fees. One of them was flying First Class. This service at $29 was awesome. I will definitely use again wherever available.

Yes and no. No for me because I hadn’t even considered this an option, so didn’t know what to look for. This is for Terminal 29. These vans (large newer Sprinter vans) pull up to curb area on the left as you exit terminal. They are parked at the very end of the awning before you walk out to the taxi stand. Basically where the Uber drivers start lining, but again, left side. Not sure if some people had made reservations or not. When I finally figured out these vans were shared taxis, I asked driver if he had room for two more. He said “Yep.” We were last two in the van.

Great question. I guess I would normally pre-order. But it did take longer to disembark than I thought it would. Really long line of passengers backed up to get out. That said it probably only took 20 minutes. Next time I will pre-order car, but the airport shuttle was a great option. Only $11.00 per person.

Sitting in FLL waiting for flight. I gave up trying to order Uber/Lyft for quick trip to airport. I did not pre-order, which normally I do. I thought disembarking at 9:00AM would mean things were quieter. Big Nope. Instead grabbed a shared van. $11.00 per person. They seemed to come somewhat regularly and you didn’t need to stand in really long taxi line.

Perfect day for disembarking. At least weather-wise. A big BOO otherwise. Taking our time getting off the ship. Flight from FLL is at 11:36am.

I forgot that I have Apple AirTags in each bag. I guess I’ll know if the bags make it onto the plane with me at FLL.

Luggage Valet is $29.00. I think that’s up to two bags. Hoping I see bags next in Phoenix. If I see them, then the Valet service is awesome! If not, then….. 😠

One last night for being spoiled by the amazing staff on the Reflection. Time to open the welcome aboard bubbly because it wasn’t going to drink itself! 😜

Luggage Valet is available for our disembarkation and fight home from FLL. The only reason I knew it might be available was from reading threads on our Celebrity Cruise Critic board. When I asked butler if available, he said “absolutely.” Didn’t see anything noted about the service being available. (Maybe I missed.) Anyway, giving it a go for the first time. Here is a photo of the special baggage tags they give you. Boarding passes also included. Bags are to be placed outside of room like normal this evening.

Well, the sailing gods decided we had had enough perfect weather and deemed today to be sort of crappy. Really strong winds this morning and then some on again/off again rain this afternoon. Way cooler as well. Winds calming now, but I can see more rain ahead maybe.

Wow, you’ve got me on that one. I think you’re talking about an actual cocktail drink. I know they have some alcohol available to add to coffee drinks, but they don’t seem set up to make actual cocktails. I’ll try to check.

We are currently sailing in an RS on Deck 11, starboard side. Love the room and the location. I would gladly swap the balcony hot tub for two loungers. (I think the last time I got DW in a hot tub was on our honeymoon over 40 years ago….. 😂)
