True! And the poster did note that they can only report on what was happening on that particular ship (with pictures). Maybe Celebrity is listening!!

Wow! That is awesome and you are so lucky to be able to go on so many adventures!

Good news!

Yay!! Positive news!!! Love it! ❤️💝🥰

Exactly what I mean! For every negative review there is a positive one, but people love a scandal, a whisper, they love to see people and companies fall from grace!! I did not want to say it is human nature. Maybe I am in denial? But, instead of piling on the negative - let's highlight the other majority of us that liked our Celebrity adventures!

Well, my grandfather was a baker from Italy and owned an Italian bakery. I grew up visiting and helping him in his craft. He was not a baker, but an artist. I appreciate every baker's work in their craft. I've enjoyed gourmet desserts and I've enjoyed desserts made by myself in my kitchen at midnight (sshhhhhh)! The entire point of this post is to ENJOY!!!! LIFE!!!! And we should stop holding ourselves back from worldwide adventures bc someone may not like a cake in the OVC. I'm sorry but when I'm plowing my way through Italy, France, Greece, Turkey, Scotland - my last concern is the food in OVC but things seem to be alright!!!

And wine, you forgot the wine. Cheers! ps he also mentioned turkey carved off the bird, stuffing, mashed potatoes, etc. etc.

Don't let the negativity drive you away. Why not go on your trip and decide for yourself? Here is a post from another thread:

Yes exactly!!!!!

I've always loved the desserts on Celebrity

I shall give it a try! They look tasty

Nevermind then, commence complaining 😵‍💫 The complaining is that things are going downhill and it's awful and the sky is falling....but yet those that post menus or positive things are brushed aside....just as this post was....

Someone just posted pics of the OVC on Valentine's Day on the silhouette and it's shocking! It's shocking because it looks fabulous! Amazing desserts, carving stations, even a free wine tasting! Get the smelling salts! Let's balance out the doomsday negativity with some positive experiences!!! ❤️🥰

I did this itinerary in 2018 and was the best trip of my life. You will enjoy it. Every morning felt like Christmas morning, waking up in a new destination. With six countries (7 if you visit the Vatican), it is a great way to get a taste of the Mediterranean. by the time we got to Corfu, we were so exhausted that we spent the day sitting in a cafe along the Espalanade just people watching, morning cappuccino turned into lunch and beers and we just people watched. One of my favorite memories and these will happen organically and can't be planned. if you want to splurge on some ports but save on others, then I would do my own thing in Dubrovnik as you can easily walk the wall on your own and Kotor can easily be done on your own. Venice is another city that doesn't need a shore excursion as many people will say "just get lost" in Venice. Be prepared for a lot of walking on this trip. We had 2 formal nights. I'm jealous! Enjoy!!

So he's stuck with me? Good to know!

Nice!!

I found out you can link accounts with your spouse and, whoever has the most power points, then you both will have the same amount of higher points.

You like the "power" in power up points? ☺️🥰 ❤️

🏀 🗑️ Whoop! Scored more points!! LOVE the PUP program!! Great job, ❌

Happened to see stock commentary on this a few days ago. Demand for cruises are strong and they are a good deal for consumers. Travel demand is still over the top - people want those social media posts. This has more to do with demand vs cutbacks in the ocean view cafe or room service, but addressing debt is considered.

Completely understand, which is why I said not talking about the OP (which means original poster)...

Cruise line is $39 pp for a transfer from the Amsterdam port to schiphol. What is your favorite way to go? I'd like to spend less than that, if possible.... Hopefully the problems at Schiphol will be improved since last year. Thank you!

Probably discussed before, does anyone have a favorite dupe for the celebrity robe? We want something similar for the house. Thank you!

That's why he is in the EV.

I agree - I'm at a loss and when I call excursions, they know nothing. It's obviously a call center in another country and they are just there to schedule it and not the right people to reach but that is the only avenue.
