Cancelled Cruises Refund Tracker/Discussion (merged topics)
scrabble6 replied to Argo.'s topic in Celebrity Cruises
Two successful refund scenarios to report--I hope this gives you guys some hope that your refunds will come through! Alaska cruise/tour, scheduled to depart Vancouver May 22, 2020/Millennium. Final payment was Feb 22. Cruise was cancelled by Celebrity on March 24. We requested full refund online on March 24. At that time it was stated we would receive refund within 30 days. Today, May 6th, most of my refund appeared on my credit card online statement! Yesterday (May 5) was the 30th business day. I check our credit card online this morning--no refund. I called -
The Post Your Favorite Celebrity Cruise Photos Thread

As the OP did, we also did a Spenser Ambrose tour to the Pitons of St. Lucia, and just had one of those perfect days! After we watched them disappear in the distance during sailaway, we wandered up to the Mast Bar. There we were enjoying an adult beverage when we happened to look back and were delighted to see the Pitons waving good-bye, framed perfectly by the ship. We took several beautiful photos during our outing that day, but this one, while not as scenic, is such a fun memory! -

We love the unexpected solitude and the beauty of the decks at night. This was taken during a walk on the Silhouette. -
Where to get a whisky/bourbon based drink?
scrabble6 replied to cruiserj12's topic in Celebrity Cruises
We had Manhattans on the Edge in December at the Martini Bar. I'm pretty sure they were Maker's. Don't recall what kind of cherry they served. I had both rocks and shaken/straight up. I think we also had Manhattans at the Eden bar as well. -
Summit or other M class ships--cabin 8035 vs 8037?
scrabble6 replied to scrabble6's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Ah--great information! I've only been on S-class and Edge, so I wasn't aware of that! Thank-you so much for your help! Exactly what I needed 🙂 -
Hi all, can't find this on the the M class cabin spreadsheet. Does anyone know about bed location in cabins 8035 and 8037 on Summit? Also if there are any problems with these cabins I'd appreciate that info also. And pics would be awesome! :) Thanks!!

Thanks again to all of you for your most helpful thoughts, info, and beautiful photos. Jim_Iain, I followed your journey through Greece and across the Atlantic--so fun! (funny story, for quite a while I thought your name was "Jim Lain"--the capital I being a small L-- then I realized there was both Jim & Iain with the beautiful Gaelic spelling.)

Thanks vtcruising! Very helpful, as always! The Edge info that you share here on Cruise Critic is great. Can't wait to be onboard in just a couple of weeks! Our previous port sail-in/away invites seem to be related to Concierge class--otherwise we're "nothin' special". 😊 Fingers crossed that someone will be able to post some current dailies from the Caribbean!

A few questions for the Edgxperts! Thanks so much in advance for taking your time to share some info!! I'm curious about the Magic Carpet: On embarkation day, where is it "parked"? Is it a popular spot for Sailaway? On sea days, is it used as a bar? Is it located on the pool deck at that time? We're sailing 12/8. The MDR menu's for each night are on the app. Are these menu's generally reliable/accurate for the specific cruise? In the MDRs--are there two-top tables available by the windows for Select dining? On S-class ships we have occasionally been invite
