There are no current plans or scheduled for the Revolution to continue. It is expected this will not occur until RCL returns to profitability and the reduce their debt load.

I agree since I will be doing a B2B in Sydney in December. We have the same room and sure wouldn't look forward to packing up everything only to have to unpack. If I recall Gerry's earlier post, they do have an unusual protocol and B2B's have to wait in terminal or tour instead of being immediately returned to the ship prior to general boarding.

Interesting. Since we were not originating or departing Reykjavik I didn't know that. All I could see were the huge lines of people waiting for transportation. Once they started boarding we heard horror stories from the Retreat Host and passengers.

I guess we could have done that if we used our Transit Pass and left the ship early. While we did get our SeaPass for the new cruise we couldn't use them until the Zeroed out the ship. The didn't zero out until about 10:00 and if I recall we had to be back aboard at 2:00 PM You may recall Iain is not a morning person. We originally booked a Foody Tour but with the early departure would have to cut short and grab a cab back to the port and we were hearing no cabs were available.

Thanks for posting. They have a link where you are suppose to be able to create one unique for your sailing but been broken for about a year. It was pretty good when it worked. https://www.celebritycruises.com/excursion-brochure/celebrity/?error=notfound&ship=AX&currency=USD&date=2023-04-15

At the B2B meetings - you will be surprised by some of the questions that will be asked. At some of the B2B meetings they have had raffles and given away free Specialty Dining, wine and laundry bags. By the way. With CC's you can change your credit card at anytime using the app even after the cruise begins.

Keep in mind all the rooms can be setup as Singles or "King". Actually the bed is a "European King" measures to that of a U.S. Queen. Upper suites have actual U.S. Kings. When you arrive - don't despair as rooms are usually set up with the beds together but your room attendant will split them during turn down service.

You should get 1 internet Premium Wifi Account for each passenger. Each passengers creates a unique Logon and Password and an use unlimited devices but only 1 at a time. If you log on a second you are aked if you wish to bump the other off the air. With Starlink you should get in the range of 2.5-5 mps. Not as fast as land but I regularly stream content and have done many internet calls as well as Zoom meeting. Reliability at sea is often better than in port where I sometimes have problems and shift to Fee TMobile Data Roaming.

Respectfully disagree. With a Suite Guarantee you get all the perks as do other suite guests. Possibly you are thinking about being upgraded on a Bid - in that case you are correct. The only difference of a suite guarantee is you can not pick a room and one will be assigned to you prior to or at boarding.

We hand an interesting B2B in Reykjavik. It was a total mess for both departing and arriving passengers as they just didn't have the infrastructure of busses and taxi's to handle the passenger load. The night before we were told that Iceland authorities considered us in-transit since we had stops before and after in Iceland. They gave us our new sea passes and asked for our old ones to scan us off the fist cruise. We got them back later. We had to change rooms but our room attendant got our room ready while we were at breakfast and and we had full access of the ship until General Boarding began. Downside it was such a mess at the port with some waiting 2 hours for cabs that we didn't even get off the ship and didn't see Reykjavik.

Unfortunately no. Even when traveling in a Penthouse you have to go through it. We were given a Golden Glove treatment on a recent cruise as a Zenith and top Cruiser on the next. They had us wait in the retreat while others met in a lounge and then when ready the Documentation Officer came into Retreat and asked us to follow him and he escorted us off so would be first to clear immigration. LOL.... Then we waited in a gang area with everyone else before allowed back on the ship. It was a nice gesture

If it was yours --- credits due to you. I just googled on it and foudn a copy. Couldn't find mine - too many pictures.

Glad to hear of the small bar. Can you actually sit at the bar or is it just a serving bar? I'm not into laying in the sun so never have even had "snacks" up there.

Probably - first try to buy 2 and if it doesn't work. Buy one under your name and one under your Spouses account.

Generally when the status changes as you indicated it means you won the upgrade and will be notified within 48 hours. Saying that on one of my recent cruises it did the same and two days later they both reverted back to pending . Finally I then got notified I had been upgraded.

Since it will be after final payment date he will loose his entire deposit and final payment. Your daughter will enjoy the room to herself and continue with him either being a cancellation or no-show. If he were to have gotten any cause for cancellation insurance and you cancel him before the cruise he might be able to get 80-100% of his payment back. Your daughter would not be impacted. I know someone that this happened to.

Are you referring to the site that starts with a T or F

That means you are too far out for your cruise and are only seeing the first 7 day stock menus. You should be able to view them by selecting a current sailing with the same number of days. Your will be loaded and probably correct about a week prior to your cruise.

You will have a letter delivered to your room as well as a meeting to give full details. The protocol is usually the same but sometime you are processed aboard other times (most common) in the Terminal. The letter pretty much tells you everything you will need to know .

I had the same happen. Usually the new luggage tag shows up about 24 hours after upgrade. You can either reprint it or one last minute after the ship manifest closed, I just scratched out the old number and wrote the new one with a sharpie. I also already had name and address on the tag. Luggage arrived correctly.

A good resource will be to download the Celebrity App. In additions to all bars, shops and coffee they show the opening and closing times. The Retreat Sundeck is open 8Am - 8PM Snacks 11:20-2:30 If I recall correctly (sure someone will correct me if wrong) There is no Bar up there but they have a bar setup in the backroom. You just order your drink and they deliver it. Light Lunch and snacks available. They do also have a Hot Tub and showers as well as loungers with some having protection from the sun. They do charge to use the Cabanas but they are located on the Lawn Club. The charge includes a Liter Bottle of Premium Booze or Champagne, Beer and food.

We sail Europe often and you will see many dress a bit better than on a Caribbean Cruise but the dress code is the same. You will probably see more dinner jackets, Tux and Fancy gowns on European Cruises. If you enjoy dressing up you will not feel out of place and I'm sure you will both look wonderful. Chic dress code was designed to allow guest to dress within limits as they choose

Not possible. The seating is limited in Blu which is the reason they also don't allow to book more than 2 PAX per room in Aqua. They do allow guests from Suites at no cost on a space available basis.

I wouldn't schedule anything before noon. Not sure of mode of transportation but would run about 1 1/2 hour by car (without traffic) to 2 1/2 hour by train and you have to get from the port to train station

I really have not seemed much difference at all. Having said that on Summit in October there were some crew shortages but they worked well around them Because of crew going home they got down to only having 2 butlers to handle all the suites on the ship. They really worked their tails off and didn't see any drop in service. We had one waiter in Luminae that they pulled from MDR. He was only an Assistant waiter and was terrified and shaking the first night as he knew we were Zenith's. He turned out to be one of the best waiter's we have ever had and we chat often. First night we encouraged him to calm down and we would give him pointers. By our third cruise we were playing with him and would swap the knife and fork and would chuckle with him when he realized. We would learn a little Indonesian phrase each night and he was good about teaching us and correcting Google with small meanings.
