Just an update. We were able to get off the Beyond at terminal 25 and walk through the parking garage to terminal 19. The hard part was going from the beautiful Celebrity Beyond with only 3 kids on board to the RCCL Liberty of the Seas with over 500 kids on board! The only reason I booked the Liberty was to go to Perfect Day at Coco Cay and go to the Coco Beach Club. So worth it!!

We were just there on February 4, 2024. We had a 5:30 reservation for dinner. It was amazing! Our dinner and drinks were awesome and the service was great! We would do it again in a heartbeat. Well worth it!

Thanks for all of your replies. A lot of horror stories, to be sure. It's not worth the hassle for a free shuttle. My plan now is to be one of the last ones off of the Beyond and walk to the Liberty, if the Liberty is at pier 19. If the Liberty is at pier 18, we will gladly get a cab. Either way, we're going to have a great time!

We are doing a cruise on Celebrity Beyond and then getting on the RCCL Liberty of the Seas. Same port, sale day. My question is: Does Celebrity offer a shuttle to the next pier in Port Everglades for us? Probably pier 25 to pier 18. TIA

I've been on both the Equinox and the Silhouette. I prefer the Silhouette because it has the Lawn Club Grill (make sure to have the warm chocolate chip cookie for dessert!) and the Porch (great lobster rolls!). The Silhouette also has nice seating areas towards the back of the ship on the sides of the Sunset Bar.

We were on Explorer for the last two cruises before dry dock. What did they do to the pool deck area, if anything?

We used to add an extra tip on the signed slip but stopped doing that when we heard from one of our favorite bartenders on Royal Caribbean that if you put $1 extra tip on the slip, the bartender only gets 7 cents out of that dollar. RC gets the rest. We only give cash tips to bartenders now and they are very appreciative of it.

Thanks for the info!

Thank you, fellow Minnesotan! I will ask for the diet tonic next month. I don't care if they sigh when I ask for it...after the first cash tip to them, I don't think they will mind getting the diet tonic! 😃

Does Celebrity have diet tonic? We're on the Silhouette in December.

We were on the Silhouette last December and had a gal for a cruise director. I can't remember her name, it might be Angela, and her husband Dave was her Activities director/manager. They were a hoot and I was hoping they were still on the Silhouette when we cruise soon. In all of our 30+ cruises, we've had some great cruise directors and some not so great.

Can anyone tell me who the cruise director is on the Silhouette right now? TIA

Thank you for the replies!

Question: On the Silhouette, cabin # 9284, is the bed by the balcony or the bathroom? I looked on the spreadsheet for the S class ships, but there are no reviews for 9284. I know that they leap frog every other cabin, but on the spreadsheet, 9282 is by the bathroom, but # 9286 & 9288 are both by the balcony. Has anyone stayed in 9284 that can help me? Thank you!

We are going to be on the Explorer January 21, 2023 for the last sailing before the Amplification. It is going to be a 110 million dollar update.
