Dance music would start around 9 or 10 and last until after midnight. Luckily, I only had to put up with it for three nights and was able to change cabins PICTURES (Attach pictures in your review) DATE OF CRUISE AND "REVOLUTION" COMMENTS 9/2019

I think there is a misunderstanding somewhere. Cash is not used on your cruise, either before your cruise or during it,

Yes. That is so. But the OP was concerned about being charged a gratuity on drinks ordered within a beverage package that was received as a perk. This is not happening.

Luann was the Captains Club hostess, a delightful lady from Mexico. i never saw a bar server named Humberto, sorry.

Try the ports off call board or tripadvisor

Just off Reflection and the procedure for getting the keys has not changed...you don’t get them at your door, they are in the terminal where you check in. Staterooms were ready at 1:00. Prior to that the corridors were blocked.

As you consider the infinite verandah, be aware that while the window is open to the fresh air, the room air conditioning turns off.

Every time I had waffles, your name came to mind

Yes there is a lot of differemce. The edge infinite verandahs don’t have true balconies. They are often described as oceanview rooms with windows that open. Sunset Verandah rooms have true balconies. There are also a few “hull balcony” style staterooms, located far forward and aft.

I wish I could help with the martini bar prices, but I’m already in the Atlanta airport on my way home after an arduous trans Atlantic trip. Happy to be of help with the movie thing. I’m one who always watches in room movies so I am very happy that the issue was resolved so quickly and I will have them for my upcoming Caribbean cruises

Yes that is what we are saying. if you are enbarking in Sydney, you can’t then leave the ship that same day. On e you are on the ship, you must stay on. if you arrive in Sydney as a back to back passenger, you can receive a transit pass for leaving the ship for the day. But you can’t leave the ship using that pass and then return to the ship and then try to leave a second time. Once you are back on, that’s it. they are two different scenarios, with two different sets of rules.

Apparently not!

I am so looking forward to visiting Sydney Nova Scotia and seeing its new bridge. It’s amazing how they manage to copy the one in Sydney Australia so exactly. Oh wait, you don’t think that Celebrity could have made that big of a blunder do you?🤪🤪🤪🤪

I absolutely concur with that. There were no hop on hop off privileges!

On turnaround days, you can disembark and tour the city, then revised. You are given a transit pass to help skip the lines in the terminal. I have done this in Auckland and in Sydney. This is not what the OP was asking about however, so just to be clear the OP is boarding Auckland, and is not a back to back passenger.
