Its very annoying and sad that people can't sleep due to these noises.  We are going on the beyond next week because she goes to the ABC islands and is a 8 night cruise, we only have been getting balcony cabins for over 25 years now, we decided not to chance having this problem so we chose a deluxe oceanview stateroom on deck 8 very forward, and so far nobody has mentioned about these noises on these cabins or any of the oceanview cabins or inside cabins.  Will I miss the balcony, no, I rather sleep and not have the balcony lol  I really feel bad for everybody who couldn't sleep.

I have read through most of this thread, and I’m trying to cross reference room numbers to locations on the ship. They seem to be all outside cabins. Have there been any reports on any noisy inside cabins? This thread may have convinced me not to do a veranda after all!! 😳

I have not heard any noise issues on oceanview cabins (outside cabins as you call it) but on balcony cabins.

We do not like Blu on the E class ships.  We went on each of our E class cruises once or twice and never went back.  But on the Equinox we got overall subperb everything in Blu on this ship, it was like night and day (Edge/Beyond/Apex vs Equinox Blu).  We are going on the Beyond again next week and won't be dining in blu.  Another thing, Blu on the E class we were unable to order off the MDR menu choices but the Equinox allowed us to.

Hello,

Does anybody know the pier number of the Celebrity Beyond?  Is it still number 25?

Is that " really " true ?? You brought cat toys " hoping " to meet Captain Kate and her cat??

About " Captains "--- Met many--- Every one was very approachable when walking around the ship. Their " public relations " (IMO) is excellent. 

One day the Captain ( forgot who ) was walking by our Stateroom and we had a little chat--

" How many cruises with Celebrity, where are you from "--- all the standard chit chat ---and finished with " As Captain, I am ordering you to continue enjoying the cruise --- and, eat as much as you want ". 

 

 

 

Yes, we spoke to her and met Bug the year before, I did bring cat toys but did not see her at all during our entire cruise.

On her Day 80 Captain's Log, she stated she had 1 cruise remaining after this (would end 4/22).  She should captain your cruise, probably leaving 5/5.

Thank you.  Same happened last March, we had her and it was her last cruise, we didn't even see her once, guess she was packing up her things to go home.  I gather it be the same for this cruise.  Last year I brought cat toys for Bug didn't see her at all so ended up bringing them home to my cats.  I hear Captain Leo is very nice too.

I am on the April 27th Beyond, I just heard on Captain Kate's YouTube she was extended two more weeks.  Does anybody know which week was her last week before she gets her time off?  I am trying to figure out if she will be on the 27th sailing and if so, if it is her last week before her time off.

Ok thanks. I know it’s allowed at Lumanae, thought it might be the same at Blu. Hopefully an Aqua will open up.

Is anybody allowed to dine in Luminae or do you have to know somebody in the suites to dine there and what is the fee please?

Be advised that sometimes Diamonds are excluded from the Crown Lounge (D club) during the happy hour. 

I am diamond why would I be excluded?  On another note, I don't need the free drinks, I have the drink package.

Is that ocean view on the Beyond? 

Yes, deluxe oceanfront is in the very forward of the ship, we are on deck 8.

Freedom Ice is shown on the first night 7:30 and 9:30pm

The headliner is on the 2nd night also at 7:30 and 9;30.

Freedom Ice is presented again on the 3rd night usually at 8:30.

Do you have Elite status on Celebrity? If you do, it equals to Diamond status on RCCL. Diamond club has outdoor private seating.

Yes we are diamond on Royal because we are Elite on Celebrity.  I am so happy to hear diamond has private outdoor seating. That is perfect thank you.

I also been keeping track and agree the cabins with balconies have this issue and I also haven't heard of any outside or deluxe outside staterooms having this issue, which is why the end of this month for the first time in over 25 years I didn't get a balcony for these reasons and chose an outside deluxe stateroom.

Legionnaires disease is not the flu.  The flu is a virus and Legionnaires is caused by bacteria and causes pneumonia and can be contracted by vapor in showers, spas or A/C ventilation. I'm not sure Celebrity is in the business of fear porn but informing passengers of potential risks is their job.

I am sorry but Legionnaires disease has been around since 1976 and it is from water, bacteria yes and it is not contagious.  Nothing to worry about.

The pool bar (Lime and Coconut) is open until 11PM. Some nights they are showing movies out there. 

Great unfortunately 11pm is too early but its something.  I can go there and when it closes head to Viking Crown Lounge, thank you.

Deck 5 for us the last two years.

Hello,

We been cruising Celebrity the past few years and have another the end of this month.  Our last cruise on Royal was in 2017, we have some questions if you can help it be appreciated.

1-  We enjoy on Celebrity ships hanging out at the Sunset Bar outside during late evenings and having cocktails.  I realize the Freedom has the Viking Crown lounge but it is not outdoors.  Is there a bar that is open late hours in the evening outside on this ship?

2-  What time generally are the shows such as the ice show.  We got select/anytime dining and heard we cannot have dinner before 7, if we have dinner at 7 will we make the shows?

3-  What time does the Viking Crown lounge stay open till each night?  Is there live music there?

4-  Would anybody happen to have the wine list, by the glass?  I will have the premium package but I have been limiting my hard alcohol and drinking wine instead.

5-  What time during sea days is the MDR open until for breakfast?

My other half gets mostly aqua class and concierge offers, I get inside lol.  If a sailing gives him a concierge stateroom am I allowed to take my inside and upgrade to aqua class?

Please don't fall into the fear porn.  It is the flu, the typical yearly flu that hits during winter, we are nearly getting out of it as spring moves in.  You have the same risk of getting it going to the mall, grocery store, restaurant, etc.  Go with precautions, take some airborne a couple days earlier with vitamin c, maybe a multi vitamin and take that each day.  This will make you feel better, its always good to take these things even without an outbreak.  Go and have a good time.   Life is too short be happy.

Thank you everybody, we love the Sunset Bar, if they went all frozen drinks I be devastated lol.

Hello,

Somebody is on the Beyond right now and wrote a post and stated in their review that the Sunset Bar (which is our favorite place to hang out late in the evening) only serves frozen cocktails.  We don't drink frozen/sweet cocktails, we prefer gin, vodka and bourbon.  Can anybody verify that we can get bourbon and gin and regular drinks like a gin and tonic at the Sunset Bar please?

The Equinox has the best Blu excellent overall that be my choice.  

Hello, we always avoid connecting rooms, but we booked last minute and only had a guarantee oceanview room to choose from.  We were assigned deluxe ocean view room 8103 but it is a connecting cabin.  Any advice to anybody who had connecting cabins on this class of ship to the noise level?  Our cabin is 8103.  There is an oceanview on deck 3 available, so like to get your advice whether we should change our room.  Thank you.

Were were in 6138 two years ago totally quiet.  Choose that cabin because most of the main areas are in back of the ship, less walking.

We booked 8 weeks out from our upcoming cruise and the only cabin available was an oceanview guarantee.  We were assigned a cabin two weeks ago very forward an oceanview deluxe stateroom.  We booked through bluechip, I curious whether they would change our room or we definitely will keep this room?  I like the room.
