we live in tampa so there are no other options with celebrity out of our home port and rccl out of tampa is the same 20 year old ships that also need attention....It is what it is, and we just returned from taking cruises out of miami and lauderdale...At lease least we are trying to be loyal customers, we just expect that if you raise the cruise prices by 30% that maybe just maybe a few upgrades to the cabins might be justified....We enjoy celebrity and have for over 25 years, we just want a decent return on our investment.....and yes i have discussed this with the parent company. Like i said if the ships are full there is no need to right some of the wrongs...It is the corporate way....just say'in

for those of us that have sailed "connie" several times it appears that little or no improvements have been made to the balcony rooms that we always get..I guess if the ships are sailing full, no need to make improvements if the public is still going to accept the cabins in the same shape they have been for years....kind of a slap in the face for those of us that have supported celebrity for many years...

was praying for shower curtains to go overboard with DT.....guess we hoped for too much for our cabin on deck 7 this fall.....

my wife and I were on this cruise..great ship but the food for us was a not-so-great ....We ate breakfast and lunch in the buffet and dinner in the mdr..After 10 cruises on celebrity we just thought that the good quality has gone downhill on this ship..Service was great and we too thought that the entertainment was excellent. Paulette Ivory was amazing and we gifted her the next day and thanked her...She is an amazing talent.. We loved the band arjam that played alot in the foyer lounge ...Best cover band in our 30 years of cruising. Looking forward to sailing out of tampa in the future as the 15 hours that it took on delta getting home to clearwater from lauderdale was a bit much.....no fault of celebrity, just poor timing on our part trying to fly during the infamous "yutes" ritual of spring break. Wont make that mistake again. life is good and so was the reflection.

just got off of the reflection sunday the 7th. Beautiful ship, great entertainment, great cabin, great bar service, food not so good in the oceanview cafe or the main dining room...Oh well, you can't have everything...After 30 cruises with rccl and celebrity, we expected better, buy it is what it is. wish everyone a great cruise.....B&B in florida

JC needs to go, oh well, we wont need to watch any of the games while onboard. ..more time for enjoying the entertainment and adult beverages....looking forward to next week.

thanks much

how about the band that played in the lobby/club...recently it was a band named arjam. they sounded good on the youtube promo video. Also an act named cestibon....thanks for any info. We too sail on her in a couple of weeks and entertainment is why we cruise.

wish jeff ruby would open a place down here in fla. and no we would not wear jeans to it...Come to think of it we dont wear jeans at all, it's too hot most of the year.

tess: did you and you other half find any good beach bargains on either curacao or bonaire for the cruise on the 30th.???I am sure caught up in the sec tourney that i have not even researched it...We go to manchebo beach in aruba but in the past we have done an island tour on bonaire and curacao but have not done any beaches....thanks in advance for your thoughts....go big blue. B&B in fla, by way of ky.

looking forward to the 3-30 sailing ....go big blue

so called piano player in the schooner bar is some judy garland wanna be named perry grant....he is the worst entertainer that we have seen in 30 years of cruising. He should be working in a rehab center not taking up room in a nice lounge...My father was an opening act for frank sinatra in vegas and i hope that i know good entertainment when i see it and this is a pathetic excuse for a lounge act.....just sayin'

sold out ships tend to give you that gift that keeps on giving. We will mask up on the plane and pray that we get through the cruise healthy. see you guys at the hotel thursday...B&B from fla by way of Ky.

glad my mom made me eat vegetables galore..life is good to get a wellness check every year and have the dr. tell you that eating right has it's benefits...but then i have to understand that todays kids are our future.....can't wait.
