  1. I wonder if any children who prefer Celebrity over Royal Caribbean have ever asked their parents to take them to DisneyWorld? 🤔
  2. If you look beyond the Caribbean the demographic all changes again. European cruises with Celebrity are definitely a mixed bag. Whereas HAL is like a floating retirement home! 🤣
  3. Tip in any currency you like. US $, CAD $, £ Sterling, €'s, etc. I guarantee no one will hand it back!
  4. To be fair, the vast majority of tourists to Venice have always arrived by air, not cruise ship.
  5. On the Silhouette there's one channel that's the permanent bow camera and another channel that flicks from camera to mapping.
  6. Only saw it on tap in Craft Social. I don’t drink bottles as a rule so can’t vouch for any other bar.
  7. We prebooked our first 2 nights. Then there was nothing available to book when on board. But, as I’ve said, we got in the MDR at the time we wanted without a pager. And, we got a window seat twice. That’s never happened to us before!
  8. Well, I was on this same cruise (2 of us in our 60’s) and had a different experience! service in the MDR was impeccable, including service from our sommelier. Had anytime dining, chose 7-7.30 and never once got a pager! Always, got a seat at any bar I cared to drink at. Most kids were better behaved than some of the old farts that took up residence in il baccio ALL day! Though it is the 1st cruise that’s been full to capacity that I’ve been on. So noticeably busy.
  9. Lagunitas IPA on tap was an extra $1 on the Silhouette last week.
  10. No, it depends on your data contract with your service provider surely? Nowadays most have data roaming included, thus no need to switch off! Note how I didn't resort to the “if you don’t do it like me, you’re doing it wrong” motif. 😉
  11. Any currency you like. No one will hand it back!
  12. Tip in €’s, £’s or $’s. I guarantee no one will hand it back!
  13. Never had $, € or £ given back to me! 😉
  14. Since their inception, have always used them in checked luggage. Even more so nowadays with the turmoil at airports! Also have them secreted in our cars and ebikes!
  15. Nice touch from Celebrity. Presumably your friends fell ill to necessitate a covid test?
  16. For a lot of us, its not the pre-boarding test that’s an issue. It’s that it currently must be supervised/proctored. Remove that stipulation and it makes testing alot cheaper and easier!
  17. There is a ‘cruise with confidence’ guarantee for UK bookings. Provided it was booked prior to 31/3/22 for a cruise before the end of September 2022. I’ve had 3 separate price reductions which have all been honoured!
  18. Certainly in the UK if you booked prior to March 2021 you get the ‘Cruise With Confidence- Best Offer Guarantee’ if the price drops. Only this week I got £500 per person reduction off my account! A whopping £2k off for my family of 4!
