We have booked with the Classic beverage and w-fi then we upgrade when there is a flash sale where the discount on upgrading can be 20% or more .

There are a limited number of cabins that can sleep 4. Your cruise is next summer, a long time away. The cruise line blocks those cabins to keep them available for parties of 4 . Closer to sailing if there are still unsold cabins for 4 they will open them up to book or move to

Often but not always refundable. We have group booked rates that were non refundable.

Sounds like the article is outlining the amenities for. 3 separate stateroom categories and what you posted is for the Retreat only. There should be info on the other to categories as what is shown are not AQ or Concierge amenities.

X doesn't do it because they choose not to. Their company their rules. The officers and staff that are comfortable with their information/ whereabouts being public information post on social media. The majority of them choose not to.

There is no list of any officers or staff and which ship they are on. Celebrity does not provide this or like people’s assignments postered by others on social media, privacy reasons. A few who tried gathering the info and posting here were banned from the site

No need to worry. Blu is your assigned dining room but you can dine at the 4 MDRs also. In Blu if you dine about the same time every night they try and keep you with the same wait staff and the same area. So if you plan to eat in the MDR on some nights let the Blu host know so they don’t try and keep a table available for you.

For departure at the endI have gotten a wheelchair within 5 minutes by going to area for anyone needing a wheelchair. Last time I went to the Retreat the wait was almost 40 minutes. I had notified them ahead of time, as had the others who were waiting. The first 2 to arrive at the Retreat got chairs quickly then it slowed down. Getting a wheelchair for embarking at the Retreat checkin has been very quick.

That would have been in lieu of the daily canapés. Years back on embarkation there was the bottle of sparkling wine and a plate with 3 pieces of fruit on the table when you boarded.

Bacon wrapped meatloaf at breakfast?

The article also says you get the sparkling wine and fruit on you Aqua & Concierge cabin on boarding. That stopped years ago.

Doubtful as the pool is midship forward and 2 decks above you. We recently did a deck 11 SV on the Beyond and never heard a doubt from the pool

DH has done this also with the DJ blasting music in a venue that is almost empty. Every time they have lowered the volume.

We prefer the Magic Carpet suites for the large balcony. if you need to be closer to the Retreat then book a SS as close to the forward elevators as possible.

Is this a recent change? Every B2B we have done if we left the ship we were given a transit pass which circumvented the check in process. It was a seperate line for returning B2B passengers.

Thanks all for the info and opinions. We booked the cruise about 7 months ago with a guarantee MD mini suite. We are down to 10 days until sailing with no cabin assignment. However others on the same cruise are reporting their bids to upgrade from a balcony to a mini suite were accepted, what’s with that! Online the cruise is showing as Sold Out so no way to see what’s available. Yesterday with no cabin yet assigned we got the email offer to upgrade from our from our guaranteed MD mini suite to a reserved collection one. Part of me thinks not assigning a cabin but offering an upgrade bid is a ploy to get more $. We will probably bid the minimum and see what happens. We may get to the pier and find we don’t have a cabin. Thanks again.

Taking our 1st Princess cruise and currently booked in a guaranteed mini suite. Received the offer to bid on a Reserve Collection mini suite . The minimum bid is $15 pp pd what does the Reserve get other than seating in the Reserved section of the dining room.

30 days. They are in the edocs that are available 30 days out from sailing.

Did you purchase a specialty dining package? If you did then you cann't make reservations until you are on the ship. They are slowly rolling out the ability to select restaurants with the package.

Oops

Have you tried looking at the Bar and Restaurant menu sin the app? I would start by checking the menu for Craft Social.

Celebrity has its own release dates.

I have seen the difference being $1 or $2 frequently. On one previous sailing the price for both the premium were the same.

We have. Great if you like a lot of sea days. They do add more guest speakers and afternoon matinees in the theater.

There is a limit to the number sold for each sailing, the closer sale get to the max number the higher the price.
