Blue Eyed Belfast Belle

Have a wonderful time on Enchantment @DELTABLUE. ⚓️ Can you ask Carly B who is replacing her for the Enchantment TA? TIA

I am a solo too so if I can get a solo deal for £100 per night I think it is a bargain!!

Lucky you getting a cabin for $50-60 per night - in Europe the cheapest cabin is between £75-125 (approx $80-150) a night!! 🛳️

It has been reported on sm that Capt Henrik Loy will be the take out Master of Icon of the Seas next Jan 24.

Someone who is onboard currently has reported on social media that Utopia will debut in PC July 2024 on 3-4 nighters

They look cheap and tacky. The best description I has heard was someone has taken a bunch of old brochures, cut out the pictures and stuck them onto the back of a plastic block!! 🙂

What is the actual demographic that RCI are looking for? It seems like the more mature, solo and repeat cruises are not being catered for on the newer ships that are like an amusement park at sea.

This is penalizing solo travellers who are paying double the cruise fare.

One word....yuk!!

Yes I thought it was strange the 2 day gap from the end of the Baltimore sailings and Enchantment sailing from Cape Liberty

I am on the Enchantment TA 30th April and would love to know who the CD would be. I have sailed with Carly B before and she is tremdous fun and was hoping she would be staying on board for the crossing.

It was Orlando. Victor was very visable around the ship throughout the day, always on time for activities and very friendly. A lot of us onboard said that he would have been a better CD. Loved his Tux t-shirt on Formal Nights!!

It was the same for us on Brilliance and that is why I was delighted Victor got the opportunity to step in as the CD recently.

Id say that was fun with only 1 bathroom!! Lol

I have booked the Grandeur Repo. SImilar to the Serenade this year but 1 extra day (Grand Caymen) and Haiti instead of Coco Cay. Yes @ONECRUISER...no DP340 but this will finally tick Grandeur off my Vision Class ship list (had to cancel last year's round trip from Barbados due to travel restrictions). The only Vision class I haven't done was Legend of the Seas but maybe I can sail on Marella Discovery 2 sometime in the future, If God Spares me!

I am assuming Dry Dock. I had booked the Voyager Athens to Barcelona Repo and was hoping for the TA but no joy 🤔

Good morning all! 8am in Belfast and no new sailings...do they not want my money!?? 😁☘️

Nearly time for bed here (just after 10pm and work in the morning) so will be eagerly checking in about 8 hrs!! 😴 ☘️

Thank you...but $89 pppd for the classic! Wowzers!!🫣

I am thinking of booking my 1st Celebrity Cruise. (Will get Elite status match from Diamond + on Royal) What is the difference between Classic and Premium other than price? I am sailing solo and they are looking £1500 for the drinks and wifi for 12 nights!! TIA

I am on the Serenade Repo this year too and looking forward to some new ports for me. I too will be interesred to see if Grandeur does the same although Oasis and Liberty are non revenue when they sail up North

I had been looking for a short cruise from Europe for early Summer 24 with a Chum for her 1st cruise. 2 nights on Anthem May 24 was £569 pps for an inside with fees, no grats, no drinks. 3 nights on MSC Virtuosa was £449 pps for an inside with fees, and grats and drinks and status match for me. Sorry RCI but you priced yourself out here!
