When I had Mohs surgery on the side of my nose I was horrified that the tiny spot required the crater he dug out of my face and the huge unwieldy bandage on my nose. Couldn’t wear glasses. I felt the dermatologist should have prepared me for what the incision might look like so I wouldn’t have been so shocked. But it healed well…and DH had an idea what his might look like when the sun finally caught up with him…

Or maybe the duck threw up…😆

DH wanted to know what was in that green concoction. Looks like something The Wicked Witch would drink!

I’ve sailed Edge three times, Apex and Beyond once…all in an infinite veranda cabin…not a suite. Honestly, if you didn’t know The Retreat existed you’d never know. True the suites have the only forward facing area…and I thought I’d miss the Sky Lounge of the S Class…but Eden is a spectacular venue! And the 4 MDR concept with the extra menu options is amazing! Edge Class ships are stunningly beautiful; you definitely do not have to be in a suite to enjoy them.

Yes!! At first I thought it was a moose with quite an exotic rack!

Well, Lucy would make sure he shared…

Was this an aft or forward cabin? I have a sunset veranda booked on Beyond soon…hoping for the best. Have a porthole cabin booked on Ascent but not until 2026…refundable deposit…if these reports continue I’ll cancel that cruise and stick to only M and S Classes on Celebrity. Sigh.

So glad you had a wonderful time!

The Mast Grill will be open.

Have there been any reports of noise issues in the porthole veranda cabins?

Yes, @lexmiller, Eden is aft.

As the Edge and Apex are slightly smaller than Beyond and Ascent…I’m assuming something in the design change adding more cabins is at fault for producing the noises.

As to why people continue to book Beyond, I don’t know how many people who either reported here or experienced noises but are unaware of Cruise Critic (🙀) are actually giving Beyond another try. I know I mentioned in my post +301 that I’m only giving Beyond another chance because I’m booking an aft Sunset Veranda. So many people here have read the comments but not experienced the noises first hand and poo poo the complaints as “all ships make noises while sailing.” If I experience the same banging hammer and bowling ball noises I had in an IV in the Sunset Veranda, you can absolutely believe I will not sail Beyond again!

The CD did not give Captain Kate the question re noise. Surprise.

What ship? Things are a bit different on Solstice Class ships versus Edge Class ships.
