I am not positive but I don't believe you get Captains Club discount and 50% off. One or the other... This may be the hiccup? Patty

Yea sadly it's pretty bad... caused me to go book a few more specialty restaurants for my upcoming sailings. I was actually hopeful the burger would be a good option compared to Turkey Parmesan. This Italian from Jersey just can't... 😝 Love Cel and am on board for some of the changes but the MDR menu cuts are not doing it for me! Patty

@Cap_D Seriously Mind Blown! 🤯 You took all of my thoughts and put them in text! Can you please approach the burger debate with the same finesse? 😂 Patty

No not all! You'll easily find itineraries that bypass CocoCay. Patty

Labadee is amazing! It's a private port we enjoy far more than many of the other islands in the Caribbean. Many cruisers from the north who sail in Jan/Feb are really only looking for fun & sun! My hubby and I look to the ships as AI sailing so private islands are an added bonus. Patty

I'm absolutely fine with a port stop in CocoCay. From the other Social Media sites that I've glanced over, the positive posts are a large majority. I don't equate The New Celebrity to elegance, personally I see bartenders standing on counters and Silent Discos equate to the same vibe as a private islands full of fun. My hubby would have a blast and I'd get a great tan. What I am not absolutely fine with is the way Cel handled this for those pax who were already booked on Beyond for 2024. Patty

Also adding.... if true, as many suspect that ~X~ is looking to gain younger cruisers, they lack the vacation days from work compared to retirees or those with long employment status. With a 4 day cruise plus travel on the front and back end and a pre cruise hotel stay for assurance of flight issues, they're at a full week off from work. Patty

Agree! I am on Beyond this Aug in Europe and I've lost count of all the price drops that I've received. I truly believe I am getting to the Gk Isles for a steal and that's unheard of with todays economy. Patty

I have the sale price in my planner but the add to cart button is disabled???? Patty Edit... Persistences paid off! Got it to work! Thanks so much for the heads up!

I had an AMS & Paris trip planned for Sept 2024. My friend sent me the link with dates of The Olympics and even though they'd be technically over that trip quickly became a distant far off plan for...ONE DAY! The ABC's and Beyond is a great way to spend your bday! Patty

See it now 😵‍💫 Patty

I didn't realize you were also a part of this debacle. Hard to keep track of anymore, annoyed for everyone! UGH! Patty

Yes she is and Capt. Kate of The Beyond is with her. Coincidence... maybe? 😉 Patty

Ohhhh sorry! I see now. Patty

I am seriously bothered for you! So many cruisers got a ship upgrade ~Reflection to Beyond~ at no additional cost as should be...BUT... those booked on the TA's are expected to rebook at an escalated cost. This is so messed up! It's as if they knew airfare could possibly have certain cruisers locked in without a way out. So Sorry but I honestly feel that you've got this and will prevail! Patty

The op has an attached link to the source? Or are you asking for something else? Patty

Thanks to you both. My friends sailing with us don't want to lose their aft bal on Reflection. Patty

Back to pick your brain? What is your best guess for Reflection 2025 since we now see 2024 are the shorter CocoCay runs? I am booked for the ABC's on Reflection Feb 2025. Do you feel I'll be shifted to Beyond like others or they'll keep reflection on the 6/8 rotation? Thanks and I won't hold you accountable for any missed guesses 😁 Patty

https://profcruise.com/celebrity-testing-new-dinner-menus/ This is not for your sailing but is an idea of the new menu rollout. Just as an idea.... Hope this helps, Patty

The menu for your sailing is in the app. But for the most part yes the menus are the same for all sailings. Patty

Sounds logical! For me it doesn't matter but was curious. Patty

Do you think it's possible those RCCL ships may be swapped? Keeping with X ships and RCCL ship pairings on the same day? Patty

Hope you receive better than I have... I've only been bumped for chartered cruises, in my experience I was offered a few other sailing dates/options and the minimal OBC or take a refund. This is what I suspect will follow in your case too but with it being a TA not sure what other sailing dates they'd come up with to be somewhat considered equal. Sorry this happened to you, Patty

You tagged/quoted me and I didn't say I didn't like it! 🤷‍♀️ I just gave another point of view... that is what CC is... a million different opinions. Patty

I've gone back to double check myself. NCL and RCCL are much more than Celebrity with my Feb Southern Caribbean comparison. I was and am still shocked. For $2500 I'd jump on Beyond but I'm not a IV hater so that isn't an issue for me. Patty
