Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. That is on Beyond/Ascent/Xcel, Reflection and Silhouette do have improved Sunset Bars compared to the older S-Class ships, but just have some stairs going down to the outside OVC area.
  2. Obviously everyone's experiences are subjective, but when NPS is averaging 8/9 out of 10, that indicates that the majority are indeed loving it.
  3. Never said it did, but an extroverted, hyped-up sugar monster would almost certainly have a worse time on a Celebrity cruise than a Royal one ๐Ÿ˜‰ My hyperbolic statement was more about people forgetting that, much like adults, kids have an entire spectrum of interests, social needs, and energy types, but you'd only really notice the EHUSMs out and about by virtue of them being EHUSMs ๐Ÿ˜„ (If people can use DW/DH/DS/DD, I can create EHUSM)
  4. I think people forget that not all kids are extroverted, hyped-up sugar-monsters.
  5. Thanks for that, I was getting confused as a UK person. Generally in terms of quality/price the UK goes 'generic steak' < rump < sirloin < ribeye < fillet. Sometimes you can get tomahawks or other cuts, but the above the the standard selection you'd find in a supermarket.
  6. Plot twist, they were born in 1923
  7. (IMO) Oasis and older Royal ships < MIllenium Class < Quantum = Solstice Class < Icon = Edge Class
  8. I have done early May (plenty of snow when taking the train up the mountain in Flam) and late June (still plenty of roaring waterfalls in Geiranger), so either works. The constants for both trips were rainy Bergen, drizzly Alesund, and complete scorchers in Stavanger (30ยบC / 90ยบF)
  9. The next few decades are going to be wild, given that people currently in their 40s/early 50s grew up with 90s stuff, so plenty of pop/rap/EDM, when I'm in my 60s, it won't be Sinatra/Abba as the default, that's for sure.
  10. It is also a pet peeve of mine, these gorgeous ladies are not mere things xD The boat thing also gets me, however, as my wife proved, technically they are boats. All ships are boats, but not all boats are ships. As for nicknames, well, as we have moved away from referring to them as things, I think nicknames are ok. I use Sillie...
  11. They don't get on at all, I have seen this happen in the past. Most ships will aim to slightly over-book, as there are always going to be last-minute cancellations or no-shows, and in the event of everyone turning up, first they will cut back any crew/entertainment allocated rooms, then finally offer existing guests alternatives (like flights offering cashback AND an alternative flight to people who choose to be bumped from an overbooked flight). It doesn't happen often, as there is a lot of trended data and inventory management, but sometimes it does.
  12. I've not experienced MSC myself, but going from people's posts I get the feeling that the experience between the YC and normal passengers is far closer to the class segregation that people often complain about, whereas the general experience on Celebrity is roughly the same for non-Retreat guests as Retreat guests. As in, you NEED to be in YC for MSC to be good, but Celebrity it good both in and out of The Retreat.
  13. Apex/Ascent would be my choices, gyms are awesome on those
  14. The later ships built in a given class tend to be better as they improve on the learnings from the first few. Silhouette and Reflection are better (imo) layout-wise that the earlier Solstice Class ships. Beyond and Ascent are the same for Edge Class. In both instances, the sunset bar is much improved in the later ships in a given class. Beyond has been my favourite Celebrity ship over all.
