What's the most you would pay Celebrity (as a  %) above the HAL & Princess pricing . To return to service level  we  used to expect?

I couldn't agree more about Celebrity's contempt for the consumer. Why else would they raise their fares so much and take so much more?

Because they are being run by hachet men (& women) and accountants. No regard for marketing.The worm will turn (again). Anyone remember fuel surcharges?

How to tell which 3 person  cabins have a pullman and which don't?

You can find or twist a statistic to support just about any claim you want to make.

Figures lie and liars figure?

Ah, I see now.  Yes, there's no getting that non-refundable deposit back.  You can change the ship and sail date if you pay a $100 change fee, but there's no going from non-refundable to refundable.  Otherwise, everyone looking to cancel a non-refundable booking would just then change to refundable and then cancel.

Thanks!

no!

Wondering if I can change from a "non-refundable" to a refundable fare? Same ship,date & cabin--prior to final payment??

Have upcoming cruise with daughters in separate rooms.  How to tell if we are linked for dining (fixed-early)?

Anyone know of a way to extend the expiration date of future cruise credit(resulting from canellation)?

Alternatively use on Royal?

Great timing!  A photo of the sheet would be fantastic.

 

 

Are they offering on simply sail bookings?

Has anyone been to St. Kitts recently--is there a shuttle from ship to end of pier?

Thanks to both of you -but:

*it's at the bottom of the homepage (white letters in a black area)

* indicates difference in before or after 48 hours(cash vs OBC) 

s this still real?

Is the best price guarantee policy shown on their website still in effect?

Thanks!

Does anyone have current booze & wine pricelist from the ship's store?

Wondering if anyone knows or has experienced the covid testing requirement, where the 2nd leg is 10 or longer?

Some nice deals on Florida resident rates,Haven't checked other states.

Short answer is yes you can. Your deposit will be refunded. You will lose any offers you have and your new booking will reflect the current offers at time of booking. I can't speak to the insurance question.

So essentially cancel& rebook?

Can I book a refundable fare(say a year ahead) and later change to a non-refundable when my plans firmup(prior to final pay)?  

How does having cruise line insurance affect this? 

With all the different fares-hard to know what to do?

Thanks,in advance!

Looking to see if anyone has recently done OBB. Will they let u book the "cruise only" rate and still get the On board credit bonus?

You will notice that Celebrity’s new advertising now includes two obvious options for cabin choice. “Cruise-Only” or “All-Included” may be selected for cabin categories Inside, Ocean View, Verandah and Concierge. If choosing Aqua Class, you will automatically get the All-Included option of drinks, tips and WIFI. Why would Aqua Class cruisers not have a choice?

 

It seems that X has listened to cruisers who did not appreciate being charged for something they did not use. There were certainly plenty of threads criticizing the automatic “Always Included” and that is totally understandable.

 

This is quite a significant change to Celebrity’s promotions. Is it a notable step in the right direction to customer satisfaction?

 

A return to sanity? 2nd go round for me.When AI didn't work b4, Azamara was created.

Rebooking involves extra $900 pp  not economically feasible for us.

They can sell the cabin that i'm trading from for the same revenue as the  1 I want to go to. So no skin off their back,except violate rule.

my TA has gone to bat for me with no luck.. Trying to find someone who made it work!
