Sounds like our plan! We are not beach lovers so the pool is our desired location.

We were going to book NC last month...luckily we DID NOT. 

Steady rain most of the day. Not passing or light showers!

Today’s plan is a simple one — heading to Nachi Cocum. If we get there in time we will be at our usual table in the corner of the pool deck😂😂. Come by and say hi. 
 

Also, consider buying the entry picture from Ivonne. She is a great lady who saved us a few trips back when I forgot my credit card. Good souvenir and only about $12.

I am at Nachi as well - will definitely stop and say hi 

[mac_tlc]

Lunchtime!!

 

 

So good!

What does that mean? Celebrity's Blue Chip Club casino program doesn't Comp air and hotel. I don't know any cruise casino program that comps air and hotel. I'm curious what type of comp they were actually on. 

Don't know exactly.  There were lots of comped gamblers on our cruise.  Maybe something in conjunction with his regular casino (mentioned his regular status at casino near his home)?  We were surprised to hear air, hotel (Hard Rock) and cruise all covered.

Does anyone know if they are including lounge chairs on the sunset verandas? 

 

When I was in an Aqua Sky Suite on the Ascent in December, my balcony looked just like the one pictured in this thread. I asked our Retreat Host if we could please get 1 lounger. He asked, and told me he was told ‘no’ by his supervisor. He told me only the Sunset Sky Suites and Sunset Verandas had room for loungers. So…you’re in luck!

Probably for discussion's sake they didn't get into the details and just said everything about their trip is comped. That doesn't necessarily mean all from the same place. Hard Rock could be comping their room and flight reimbursement, and the cruise though Celebrity or a third party hosting company. We had a similar offer from Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood where we would have gotten a free room, $500 resort credit, flight reimbursement, a 50" TV, and concert tkts. And of course a free cruise from Celebrity. So if we had done that deal, when I would discuss our plans, I would say our whole trip, flight, hotel, and cruise, was comped.

Made it back to the ship with no issues or traffic. Six ships in port today so you never know.

 

Apex all aboard was 3:30 so it should be leaving soon. Our all aboard is 6:30.

Well well well, once the older sister left , our older cousin is taking her spot!

 

 

 

 

 Voyager was supposed to be in Costa Maya today but word is it was too windy and none of the ships could stop there today. Voyager was due in Cozumel tomorrow so it looks like she will do an overnight. Good port to do that —-

Have they been having Lobster rolls in Luminae for lunch at all? I do not see it on the menu in the app.

If you just change the sailing date to a current one in the app you can see all the menus.

Interesting. We were on the Beyond a few weeks ago in a SV and were told loungers were no longer allowed due to a guest injury. I confirmed this with the CEO office when I got home. Ridiculous in my opinion.
