I'm thrilled that her contract was extended and I hope to meet her on my upcoming cruise. The people who think she's "just another Captain" have obviously missed the importance of her post and how she's paving a path for female officers. I'm also looking forward to hearing her announcements as I've struggled to understand the male Captains with foreign accents.

All your food pictures look delicious!! Thanks for posting them with your reviews. It's helping me decide what to order. 👍

Following. Looking forward to reading about your trip. Thanks for taking us along! My first sailing on the Beyond is in April.

I booked the $13.99 yesterday but saw the $6.99 today so I just canceled and rebooked. Great price!!!

Yesterday, I could no longer see the menus on the app for my April 2024 Beyond sailing. I checked again just now and they're still not there. Is anyone able to see the menus? Or did they move them somewhere else on the app?

We had anytime dining. On the first night my husband and I were seated in an area tucked behind a large boisterous group. The following night we asked for a quiet location and were seated by the window. We had the same table for the duration of the cruise, although a few times we waited a few minutes for the table. Ask politely for what you need and I think it will work out. If you have a set dining time go to the dining room on embarkation day and see where you've been assigned. If it isn't to your liking, ask for what you want.

Thank you for replying. I'm glad you were able to get your issues resolved quickly.

Wow! Great that your wait times were low. What were your issues? What phone number did you call?

I used the call back feature yesterday at 10 am EST. They never called back. This morning I had an estimated wait time of 12 minutes. Two hours later someone picked up. Transferred me to another department. 30 minute wait. Finally got someone who linked my B2B reservations but could offer no further help related to the change from Reflection to Beyond next year. She told me to wait a week or two for my cabin assignment. She had no clue what a Deluxe Veranda (slant balcony cabin) on Reflection would change to on the Beyond.

I was on hold last night for nearly 3 hours. I'm also concerned that my preferred staterooms will be gone by the time this gets sorted out. I was told I would get the same stateroom number. That's a downgrade from what I had on Reflection. I tried to link my B2B cruises so I'll get the same stateroom. No go. I tried to choose a stateroom. No go. I tried to get the reduced price I'm seeing online. No go. I booked specialty dining on both cruises at flash sale rates. I'll get refunds but who knows if I'll see another sale. This is very frustrating. At least I have a cruise still. The poor people who got cancelations definitely have it worse.

Thank you. I booked both cruises online....not through a TA. I'd better call Celebrity.😬

I received the same email. I'm worried that while they are working through cabin assignments a sale will pop up and take away some of the better cabin choices. I'm on B2B and really want to choose my cabin location and have the same cabin on both legs.

I was scheduled for a B2B on Reflection. April 27 and May 5.☹️ I wonder what X will do. What a mess!

Thank you. The app currently says we're putting the final touches on your cruise so no info there yet for me. My cruise is in April 2024.

Does anyone know the dining hours in the specialty restaurants? I'll be on the Reflection. Thanks!

Also following! Booked on the Equinox for the December 1st cruise. 🙂

Thank you for the photos of Bermuda. I sailed on the Nordic Prince to Bermuda for my honeymoon 32 years ago. We docked in St Georges for one day and then on Front Street for a few days. The photos bring back great memories. 🙂

Yay!! Following along! It was amazing to feel your energy leading up to the cruise! Can't wait to read your posts! So exciting! 🤗

Yes! App and website. 🤷‍♀️

Do you know if the drink package booked through BCC is limited to only the casino bar?

Thanks! I'll be sure to check location asap.🙂

I called the Blue Chip phone number yesterday to move my cabin. I think you need to call them. I was able to move up one category and there were no additional fees.

Thank you for replying. I believe I was able to secure a table for two for the early seating. Fingers crossed it holds! 🤞

If you choose a fixed time can you have a table for 2? On my cruise 32 years ago we were seated with incompatible couples and it was a terrible experience.

Good to see I'm not the only one. Sorry your airfare is high. I've been checking flights and scored Delta nonstop out of Boston for $277 RT November 30 to December 12.
