From what I understand, when you buy the drinks package gratuities are included. however, I’ve just read on one of the info pages on the app that 18% gratuity is automatically added to your drinks bill. So how does this work if you’re on the drinks package?

Thanks for the replies. Are you able to choose the time you leave though? Can I request a time, say 0830?

We’re sailing on WOS soon and I’ve arranged transport for 0900. I’ve read on another post that you can specify what time you’d like to leave. is this right or should I change my pick up time

Thank you

Just to clarify with my own experience as we all seem to have had different ones, I had to book Chops Grille for night 1 or 2, which I have done and have a confirmed booking for the day and time. But it is the second dining option on this package that I want to know how I can book. Will it only be able to be done once I’m on board ship and, if so, where do I go to book it?

We’ve just booked Chops Grille using the above package so we can still book another restaurant. The questions is, how do we do this? Had a go on the cruise planner section but couldn’t find an option to book restaurants, just dining packages. can anyone help please?

Never sailed with Royal Caribbean and have just booked a cruise for September 2022. appreciate it’s not far off but was looking at pre reserving seats for the shows and also wanted my time dining but can’t find the option for either on the cruise planner. When I go to look for pre reserving for the shows it says “sorry, we can’t reserve this right now, please try once on board” Realise it’s not long until the cruise but could they be sold out? And the my time ding as well?

Thanks for the replies. That’s reassuring. I’ll just keep an eye on it for now.

We’ve never cruised with Celebrity before but booked at the weekend to go on Beyond in July 2023. when I log in to my cruise details to look at shore excursions, some of the ports are missing so we can’t book any excursions. I can’t believe they’re sold out. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

We're thinking of cruising on Celebrity Beyond in 2023 so doing some research. As they'll be 3 adults in the one cabin, we're trying to find something with the most space. I've read on Celebrity's website about a Family Verandah Stateroom, which is the biggest of the balcony cabins but can't find any details out about it. Does anyone know where they are on the ship or what they're like? Another option is a guaranteed suite but again can't find any details of these. Again anyone done this yet on the ship and, if so, what sort of price difference was it compared to the normal suite price? Thanks everyone for any help

We are due to cruise on Mardi Gras in a couple of weeks and I’ve been watching a couple of videos on You Tube. Admittedly they were from a few months ago, but the embarkation looks really disorganised. Is it really like that or has it changed? Seemed like there were long transport queues and then large crowds just waiting to board. We’ve done check in and chose our boarding time so will it be more organised now?
