  1. We are staying one night in Barcelona pre cruise arriving to the hotel about 6 p.m. on a Sunday.Have been to Barcelona before.

    Are looking at 2 hotels, one on Las rambles and the other in El born. Would prefer the El born hotel but wonder if it is lively enough. .How is that location.? Will there be a lot of restaurants in the area.? Thanks

  2. I prefer diet Coke but in Europe they have Coca cola light which has a completely different taste.

    My husband does not like diet soda but thinks diet Pepsi is better than diet coke. He feels Coke Zero has a taste similar to diet pepsi

     

     

    Try coke zero and see if you like it sometime before next year.if you find it okay it is easier to get a soda pkg than bring bottles onboard.

     

    Depending on where you are going you will find soda in many European countries more expensive than other drinks

  3. People do not dress up like they used to on formal night.You occasional see a woman in a gown but that is what is more unusual.You will not be out of place. In the Caribbean you even see people in shorts. I suppose they have eaten in the buffet or bistro on five.

    Because I am not in Aqua for my next few cruises we will eat in the specialty restaurant s we don't have to dress up

  4. Whether or not they run the kids club depends on how many children are onboard.Ten day cruises do not tend to have a lot of kids during the school year. You might have more children on a cruise the first week in January as Canadian schools are still closed at that time.

     

     

     

     

     

    Remember, there are two sides to every story.He might have been fussy for an inappropriately long time before your co worker decided to remove him.. Most of the older passengers have grandchildren and would find a toddler cute.The fact that it was several tables makes me wonder if it was more than normal "fussy"

  5. originally booked .

    Booked a May 2016 Europe cruise onboard.Switched last week to the spring into savings promo and got all 3 perks. When TA sent me invoice noticed a $70 difference between what is on the invoice and what I expected it to be from what is on the website-both TA and Celebrity.Turns out when I booked taxes were $279 pp and now they are around$235pp.

    Should I be entitled to a refund of the taxes? Thanks

  6. It was more crowded. Aqua on the Reflection handles more cabins because of the Aqua suites.The staff was frazzled at times and seemed less accommodating than the year previously on the Silhouette. I think a 5 night specialty pkg would be a better choice if you don't want to eat a lot of meals in the Mdr.

  7. We have been in Aqua twice-once on Silhouette and once on Reflection.Loved Aqua on Silhouette not so much on Reflection.

    Decided in the future to stay in a std veranda and eat in Specialty restaurants a few times instead.

     

    Personally, I don't see Concierge Class worthwhile although I do have one booked there because it was a better value with the entire 123,pkg included than a 1b or 1a
