  1. Only issue with Eden bar and entertainment, which is excellent, is that the seating is very limited and very very uncomfortable. Plan ahead if you really want to see the shows go there for the previous act and stay.
  2. All suites guest and Zenith have reserved seats usually only needed on chic nights. Ask concierge which nights that will be.
  3. Retreat guests have reserved seats in theatre for the shows. Other shows you do not need to reserve seats no problems. We just came off the Ascent in Jan. I agree with the answer that take an early excursion. Either just get off or do first then walk around all afternoon. Thats what we have done twice. OJ can be had in lumina. All answers by Georgia Peahes are great.
  4. We have done many concierge lunches. It's basically the same menu but varies on who the chef is for quality. All have been good to great. How many eat there varies depending on how many BTBs and Zeniths there are and that can be from 20 to 100 plus. I never waited more than 5 minutes to be seated. It is a lot less hassle than the buffet. If you are in a hurry tell the waiter and get a table for 2. My last two E cruises it was in Cypress. We were BTB each time. Last time on the Ascent it did not start until 1230pm, before that it was 1130am. I like the 1230 start time. It gives you more time to get to room and have a drink somewhere. Try it once, you are paying for it.
  5. Both have same drinks and service. More space and better views to ocean in retreat lounge on E class ships. No views in S or M class.
  6. What I cannot believe is that for summer 2025 there are no Celebrity cruises out of Fort Lauderdale or Port Canaveral only out of Miami and that is the Beyond. Why????
  7. No reservations are needed. on the ascent it is held in the Cosmopolitan dining room at 1230pm. Very good lunch and great service. All you need to enter is your room key. Pick that up at your room before heading down to DR. Leave all you carry ons and valuables in the room before heading to DR.
  8. We drop off luggage at terminal 25 and park in the garage across from the terminal. Very convenient but 25 per night. No reservations needed and very hard to get a hdcp parking spot.
  9. We were just on the ascent, their shows were at 730 and 930, so if you go around 545 pm you can go to any restaurant and make the 730 show. Moving the shows a half hour later from the usual 7 makes it a lot easier to make the early show. I do not know if the time are fleet wide. Ascent has been doing those time since Jan at least.
  10. Thats what my wife does. I only use for menus.
  11. It's just easier to use app during the day, I like to plan ahead. Just a personal preference. To each his own.
  12. We have been them all. Our favorite is Cosmopolitan. We like the colors. You can get food from anywhere. You just have to look at the menus each day on the app. They usually have breakfast and lunch on sea days. We were just on the Ascent for two weeks.
  13. Why? The itineraries are shorter and no ABC islands. I wonder why they left Port Everglades. The Oasis class of RCL left too.
  14. My question I sent in was why are there no ships in Ft Lauderdale next summer 2025?
  15. On the Ascent recently they changed the lunch time to 1230 to 130 from 1130am. That helps with the the 1pm reservation times. I would come at 12 and I am quite sure you will get on the ship and be just fine.
