Thank you Papa4774 I enjoyed your review.

Hi!  We just moved to 7/16/22  (7 nights) from 8/26/21 (9 nights), from 8/28/20 (8 nights) and really hope we get to go in July 2022...

I know everyone has had a lot of cruising disappointment 2020 and 2021, but feel much worse for all the wonderful and awesome crew members who take such great care of us and can hardly wait to see them and THANK them for everything they do for us.  I suspect this trip will be a bit different than previous trips but I will just enjoy meeting new friends and seeing the beautiful fjords.  Sorry we don't get to Bergen on this itinerary but I will survive.

More later!  Bonnie and Frank

Venice, Piraeus, Stockholm, Barcelona, Victoria, all New Zealand, Sydney, St Martin, Lisbon, Cork.  That’s a lot and several I’ve missed or haven’t been to yet: Edinburgh, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Iceland, Norwegian Fjords, Greek islands, Greenland, Mississippi River, Douro River. Dreams are wonderful things.

Stay safe and healthy!  Cruising will return!🤗

Just finished Mazza’s blog and really enjoyed their trip!  Good info about Millie also.   Great pictures!

Thanks to Mazza! 

Great blog!  Thank you!

Comfort and functionality are much more appreciated and enjoyed than fancy designer glitz!  Don’t they realize we cruise to relax and be comfortable.  I hope they can fix this mess.  I really like(d) Celebrity.  I will reserve judgement until my next cruise in 2/20.  

Really appreciate the the comments coming from the most recent cruisers.  Keep giving feedback to Celebrity about what is good and what is not so good and needs to be fixed.

Thanks!

I hope they will also make these corrections to Millenium and all Revolutionized ships.

Furniture replacements for the Edge already!??????

Why? What happened?  

Artwork is not bad and it does give a small but appreciated pop of color.

Love the refurb fairy!  This is a fun and informative thread!   Thanks everyone, especially jim-lain.

Chezmarylou!  You’re right we also were on Reflection 11/26!  Sorry, I misunderstood about  the Murano statement.  I didn’t know that it was not on Millie.  We love Murano and enjoyed it twice on the Reflection cruise.  I hope they’ll keep on the ships it is on presently.

Happy sailing!

Chezmarylou!  We’re you on the 11/24 Reflection cruise.  

Also,  did you say they were doing away with Murano.   We really like their menu and service.   Tuscan and Qsine/Le Petit Chef have been disappointing..  We did enjoy a wonderful special event - Indian Dinner - in Sushi on Five one night on our last cruise.

Dr. Cocktail,

Hi! Do the clip on umbrellas really work?  I think I may need to get one.  It looks like Millie might have lost a lot of shaded area..  My thinking regarding this revolution is that it is possible Celebrity is looking to decrease the 65+ crowd and increase the 35+ group.   I hope not because we have loved our Celebrity cruises and actually have more planned in the near and far future.  The video was fun to see and the ship looks beautiful.   I can hardly wait to see her next year.  All of the ?????s and kinks from redo will be worked out by then and I’m sure she is and will be wonderful!!!

Happy sailing everyone!

Thanks to everyone who has offered info and pics of the new Millie.  I know change is very hard for folks, especially those of us who are older travelers!  

I find it easy to accept changes in color schemes and actually sort of like these changes..  I must admit I love(d) the old Michael’s Club comfort and look..   My only concern with the changes is the question of comfort!  Tables and chairs in cabins and Retreat area and Michael’s Club look really small, cheap and uncomfortable.   And I will definitely be very unhappy without the awning over 6145 and/or 6146 and the fewer shaded areas at bars and on deck.  We always look for a shaded balcony due to our age and skin concerns.  I really hope the pictures do not portray the furniture accurately.  Older folks really need sturdy, stable comfortable furniture..  We love Celebrity and hope these changes prove to be pleasing and comfortable .  I will remain positive and look forward to my 2/1/2020 voyage on the year old New Millie!

Safe travels and great adventures to you all.

Next up:  Alaska on RCCL Radiance

Hi!  Thanks Paul.

This was a great preface to my upcoming cruise on Reflection 11/26!  Did the Mardi Gras cruise 2/18 and loved the Reflection..   Looking forward to next Monday!

Bonnie

Wow! So much good info! Thank you for sharing. I’m glad cruisehabits found you miaminice. I really enjoyed your travelogues. Have you been to Hong Kong? Any helpful hints for us for that port (4-5 days)? Enjoy your future trips.

Hi! Roy. Hope you are enjoying the Prinsendam!! I sure am happy you decided to respond. I have never tried to start a Roll Call until recently and I must admit I have been totally unsuccessful as you and the others have seen. My attempts may be seen elsewhere as well. But at least I tried. Sure would love it if someone could help me or just get it started for me. Thanks. Bonnie

Hi! Can't find a Roll Call for this cruise so trying to start one. Looking forward to this trip and spending a couple of days in Montreal at the end with a road trip back to Boston. Hope to hear from others on this cruise. Love chatting and meeting new folks. Bonnie
