  1. I haven't done the tour however I have watched people jump off the "cliff" ( really a large rock) in Tom Moore's Jungle. And hiked the area. I think it is very interesting and worth the effort. However, I don't think I would do this tour if I were still recovering from surgery. Even if you got through it I don't think it would be enjoyable.
  2. We are not elite and on our last cruise we were in Aqua and got a tote and keyholder.
  3. That is where the saying applies. You chose to book a guarantee and take your chances.
  4. We were on Constellation (same ship class as Summit) in Aqua on deck 9 and hated the overhang. It completely blocked views toward the sky. So if you are sailing in fjord it will NOT be good.
  5. I know many don't, just didn't realize it applied to Celebrity. Never been on a Celebrity ship with more than 12 decks.
  6. I have a guarantee on Aqua on Eclipse for Bermuda. I have been to Bermuda before so I am willing to take a chance on a guarantee. It looks like there is a HUGE overhang on Aqua midship. If I had a choice I would probably book forward and take a chance with the possible rough seas for a trip to Iceland.
  7. Just noticed this on the deck plans.
  8. As you said there is always a chance that there could be a glitch with Celebrity IT. As long as you have copies of all the receipts it shouldn't be too hard to resolve if there is a hiccup.
  9. You can always bid for a verandah. The old saying "You pays your money and you takes your chances" fully applies in the case of guarantee cabins and move-up bids.
  10. Not exactly sure I understand the question however gratuities are based on the room you eventually get. So if you end up in a suite you pay whatever the Sky Suite gratuity rate. Note: There is always a chance that Celebrity’s crack IT group will make a mistake and have you prepay the Aqua rate.
  11. I would take my young grandchildren on Celebrity. I talked to a few parents on one cruise and they ALL said the kids loved it. I probably wouldn’t take children between around 11 and 20.
  12. From celebrity's website: For a request submitted on or before the due date of final payment, the following applies: Request for a Lower Cruise Fare: Celebrity will reduce cruise fare to available prevailing cruise fare. If full payment has been made, a refund will be issued.
  13. Drinks, beverage package and gratuities do not come along with Retreat if you do a move-up bid unless you already have AI.
  14. When I call Celebrity sometimes the agents know what they are doing, sometimes not. I would like to price out a change from guaranteed to an actual cabin and make the change, if it is not too much more, via the website. Is this possible? Any idea how?
  15. The list price is way too high. The only reason I booked was the 40% pre-cruise discount.
  16. In my experience both Celebrity and Royal have rather poor and/or wrong shore excursion descriptions. Sometimes the shore desk people on the ship know more information, sometimes not. I’ve tried calling pre-cruise to get more info with generally poor results.
  17. Did they also have snacks to go along with the tour? i did a tour on Constellation and they had snacks. I signed up for one on Eclipse when it was on a flash sale.
  18. Warmish, definitely not hot. If you want hot then use the hot tubs, they are hot.
  19. What do you mean by "mediocre"; quality of wine, amount of wine, or description provided by the "wine stewards"?
  20. Actually went in it, didn't know what it was called.
  21. Try calling. But why do you think it will not cost anything?
  22. I was just on Constellation. What is the T-pool?
