  1. Wow great pictures 1virgo. Thanks. I hate to take the last Cabin. Who knows i may and hope I wont need it any more. However, I am sure it will be gone if I dont take it now. When we get to final payment 90 days before, I could always move to another cabin if 1 were to be available. Thoughts?
  2. Hi had both knees replaced several months ago. Complications are requiring a walker. Maybe a scooter. For $300 more we can get an accessible sky cabin. Looks like larger. What’s folks thoughts on these cabins. It’s on the ascent. Thanks
  3. Hi. this may have already been addressed but question is? We traveled in on Apex last January in a Sky suite. We were told they in the process to restore dedicated butlers. Has that been restored? Thanks
  4. Hi. I understand that several months ago the terminal was damaged during a storm and things were really tuff trying to get on the ship. Anybody got a heads up if things have gotten fixed? I had both knees replaced in February and need to know what to expect. Any info is greatly appreciated Thanks
  5. FYI. We did move up around 60 days from Eclipse April 20 sailing. CC to AC. First time we have gotten our bid accepted. However there were over 50 AC cabins available as of today when bid was accepted. Dont give up. Check the available cabins. Just a heads up it was $50 per day x 7 days to move up.
  6. Tip tip tip. Yes no and maybe so. Just depends If your not impressed keep the cash in your pocket. We personally favor tipping pool guys and bartenders.
  7. I thought Summit got revelutionalized at the same time as the Milli. Or was it another? All i know is that the Milli was great after getting the upgrade.
  8. That’s huge Jelayne , i was so excited because it was someone on another thread that alerted me to the change. Just wanted to share the info on the deal we got. Hopefully its consistent across the board with all others. Every time i think i got it all figured out, someone has another good idea. Yes upgrading would allow them to apply the new change. Smart idea.
  9. Well now i will have to buy a bottle of Conundrum. Haven’t tried it before. I learned about decoy wine on this site and now its one of my favorites.
  10. Elayne, try calling the Zenith desk. I just got off the phone with my travel agent and Edwin. We got the money credited to our credit card. When i first called, Edwin said that he couldn’t talk to me about numbers but would call and discuss the options with our agent. I wouldn’t give up on this one.
  11. Jelayne call the Zenith desk and ask for Edwin. We are on the Eclipse April 27th 2024 cruise. We are paid in full and yes they did give us $1300 credit back. Gotta ask the right person. I posted this on another thread. I was quite surprised that they did.
  12. Things can be a little on the negative side for Celebrity. However i think they are starting to make some changes for the good. I think some of our complaints have started to hit home. We got Decoy wine back Dedicated Butlers for the suites Zenith now can do a cruise only fare for suites in fact they are offering it on cruises already booked and paid for We now can book a cruise to Cococay If you haven’t tried, you will love it We took grand kids. And got are own Cabana WOW. Expensive but it was great Officer are all over the ship talking to everybody i know prices seemed to have almost doubled but what hasn’t oh well, if you know others Please report the good suff
  13. Hi. Just heard back from my travel agent. He had to contact the Zenith desk to get things moving to get it approved. The Royal Suite on eclipse on April 27th 2024 was credited $1300. It looks like $650 each for the cruise only discount. Keep in mind since price dropped our on board credit from travel agent was reduced by $150. Celebrity is really is doing the right thing Loyalty is important to us. They are my choice and will remain so. Also. Credit goes to you folks on Cruise Critic. Sharing this info is huge. I hope this works out for others yippie celebrity.
  14. Ok folks. Just saw this post. Cruise Critic is great. We’re on on the Eclipse April 20 th and then April 27th. 2024. The 14 day April 27th were booked in a retreat RS. Will they actually reduce the price??? if so……wow.
  15. We just finished a 7 day trip on Apex. No butler but really didnt miss much. We just called the head butler and asked for what we wanted and got it but with different people each time. We tipped a little each time but still different people, Very impersonal. Oh well , will see if it changes back fleet wide. We’re on eclipse in April. Will see if things change. I would save any extra tip for your room attendant. We got great service from him.
  16. Well back from Apex Spent 7 days. First time on Edge class. Been on 30 Celebrity cruises. 2 really outstanding features were the shows / theater were great. Retreat lounge and private sunning are was the best. Not enough time in 7 days to really see it all and experience it all. I am certain that a 14 day cruise would have been much better for the first time. We were lost the first 3 days good first impression
  17. Well. This is our 4th night of 7 on Apex and in a Sky suite ( first on an Edge Ship) Butler arrangement is very different. You have to learn how to use the new system or you will be really mad. The Head Butler is Joey. He comes and meets you the first day. Promises the world but you got to make plans on things you want. Call him everyday and give h,I’m your list. My Mrs. Likes a late breakfast in the room but if you have an early excursion you will need to pick a time that works. Nobody stands at the door asking you what you want so make the calls and ask. So far we have gotten what we want. Not the same but…..if were going to pay then were gonna ask for what we want.. nicely and maybe often. Competition will make things right. Edge Class is super and the re
  18. So what should expect on the Eclipse now. We got an RS suite. I know the price was horrible but big celebration.
  19. You know it may be an old post but it is still good enough. What you said is si true. We’re Eclipse for 21 days and are rfesally looking forward to common ground. Apex is reallly nice. We got our free cruise and upgraded to a Carpet suite. Mrs.has been a little nest back with service. My thoughts is you gotta learn the system. Gonna try stuff
  20. Sorry i was only comparing 2 ships. We have not been on Silhouhette since she was refurbished. I would still spend $700 less and do Reflection vs Apex for the first Celebrity experience.
  21. Hi We are on Apex right now. I plan to do a review once we’re home. 30 X cruises and first time on the Edge Class. She is a wonderful ship. Clean, new and the shows are to die for. However were lost. Took us 2 days to figure things out. Reflection is our favorite S. She’s not old but in her prime. I say save the money and go her. Use the $700 and try the special restaurants.
