Cruisestich , thank you very much for clarifying about the Sky Lounge & Parkwest. Am I correct or not that they only use it during the day & evenings it’s open for the bands, etc. ??

Some days they are out at three and others they are out at 9 PM. It appears that on the days when they leave the sky lounge at three their activities move to Celebrity Central, with quasar being used to store their items

do balcony cabins have a foot stool? Thanks so much for doing this review. We are on the TA in November.

I am not in balcony cabin, but friends are and I will ask them what they have

Did I read that the Sky Lounge is closed??is it temporary or is Celebrity doing something with that BEAUTIFUL and useful space!! We have been on her many times and booked for Nov 2025. 
 

enjoy every moment! 

If you have read about Parkwest, reserving the sky lounge on sea days for it special invitation- only auctions, that is correct.  They are doing this for five cruises in a row, this is number three with two more to come.

Is the Murano still a Five (5) Star restaurant with excellent food and service? 

I haven’t eaten there, but friends have and they said they were pleased.

Retreat lounge is open. That is where departing guests often gather, and back to back guests sometimes hang out there.  And then embarking guests often head there on their arrival to the ship

Haven’t seen it in many years

How would the other passengers know that you had a status match?   🤷‍♂️
 

Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

I doubt if they were complaining about individuals, they were probably complaining about the policy

Without extra power up points for visiting , I’m really not interested in any private island

Here’s the coupon

You need the card to get drinks, buy things in the shop, get on/off the ship

We had a 30% off coupon in our key card envelope, valid first night only 

Interesting occurrence today. We are in LeVerdun, France.  The local pilot arrived by helicopter this morning.

I was reminded this morning of some things that needs attention, but I don’t think they will do anything about any of them during the dry dock. There are windows in the sky lounge and Tuscan which are noticeably cloudy. I will ask if they are scheduled for a replacement during the dry dock. 

I just ran into the Hotel Director and asked about plans for the dry dock.  Two areas that will be worked on during the dry dock are the tiles on decks four and five and the windows in the gym, Tuscan, and Sky Lounge

Not sure if you are traveling in a Suite but if so could you advise who the Retreat Hosts are.

Fernanda and Tony

How is the food in the MDR? Can you recommend Tuscan Grill? Can you share a photo of the living tree in the atrium?

This ⬆️, I also think adding Perfect Day Coco Cay to sailings is not having the appeal they hoped for. 

Maybe we will see some Power Ups for itineraries that include Coco Cay…

We are booked on the Silhouette in April. Can you comment on the condition of the ship, both the public spaces and the cabins? We sailed the Equinox and the Solstice back in 2022. The Solstice was in noticeably worse shape than the Equinox at that time.

Ship is spotless and everything that I have encountered is in good working order but April is a long way off and who knows what you will encounter then?

I’ll get you a photo tomorrow. Food in the main dining room and Tuscan has been fine. Have especially enjoyed some of the off-menu choices in the main dining room.

Still hoping there will be a more appealing way to earn PUP’s but happy the program is still active

We're also Elite. Love the continental breakfast in Tuscan Grille with a Belini or Mimosa. What Elite parties on board? Do you mean the invite to - Captains Club Senior Officers Party?

There’s that, and the music and Mixology, and the wine, and perhaps some others

How do you  get the double points?

That was a promotion in place right after the start up on Royal Caribbean and it has expired

Hey Now!

Thanks for all the great info.

I have a question about the casino.

Did they put in any more Video Poker machines?

Thanks in advance.

Since I don’t know how many there were I can’t really say if there are more now

Because it forces trivia into the Ensemble, which is not a good venue for that, it has negatively affected my Cruises. And it has removed ensemble as the “quiet” space for reading.  It has also limited the number of movies that can be shown in Celebrity  Central.  That’s Another activity I enjoy.  So it has been an annoyance every day.  
 

But it still beats being at home…..
