Live From Celebrity Constellation 3/11-3/23
Happy Cruiser 6143 replied to jam19872016's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Tip for parking in Tampa: book the valet parking. It costs a bit more, but you mentioned your mother has difficulty walking. It can be a hike from the far reaches of the parking lot. Money well spent. Have a great cruise! -
Apparently the dockworkers union does not permit Celebrity personnel to come ashore to assist passengers. At the time, I required wheelchair assist. I waited over two hours. The pier coordinator finally took me up. And I was traveling in a suite. So if Boston wants more cruise traffic, they're going to have to up their game and get their union under control.

Here we go again... LIVE from Beyond, February 19, 2024

Thanks for your great report. I will be on the Beyond in December, my first time on an E class ship. And I agree that suite prices have gone nuts. -
Is the cost for a PH still worth it ? What has changed?
Happy Cruiser 6143 replied to cavaaller's topic in Celebrity Cruises
I think Celebrity needs to put that limit out there because people have abused the unlimited laundry in the past by sending out theirs plus other family members plus friends. In my experience of penthouses and royal suites, there have been no limits, but I don't send out much laundry. I just enjoy the ability to send out one or two items at a time as needed. Mostly I have things dry cleaned. No limit on that either. -

Loved the door photos! I too love doors and have many pictures. Started out taking pictures of door knockers and then branched out to including the doors. -

Thanks for the review. Glad to hear she goes to La Popa first. Later in the day, you will not get good pictures from up there. -
I can live without the latest and greatest generation of iPads. The last one I purchased onboard with OBC (an iPad Pro) was indeed reduced in price and is still working fine for me.

Yes, that was what I loved about Blu. The breakfasts were really wonderful. Dinner was OK, but nothing special. Haven't booked Aqua class since it went away. -

This cruise isn't going to Cartagena, Spain. This Cartagena is in Colombia. -

I will be interested to hear your feedback on your tour with Dora in Cartegena. I know she has been recommended on these boards for many years. The last time I was there I was with a bunch of people and we grabbed a van at the curb. It was interesting, to put it mildly. Once, the guys had to push the van to get it started! Don't think I would ever do that again. -

I have the same problem. -
Off of Silhouette, First time Celebrity , 1 Question
Happy Cruiser 6143 replied to md80fan's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Longer cruises will definitely skew to older passengers. I can't speak to the demographic of 7-night cruises as I try to avoid them, but I suspect that there would be more of a mix of ages. The demographics don't bother me as I'm part of the older group! -
The problem with that is one does not have a Zenith seapass card until one has sailed the first cruise as a Zenith. I achieved Zenith quite a while before I took my first Zenith cruise. So I would have been barred from membership until after that cruise. What about a forwarded copy of the welcome email from the Zenith concierge?

10 Day Celebrity Silhouette 1/15-1/25/24
Happy Cruiser 6143 replied to Mike981's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Thanks for your review. I was on Silhouette at Thanksgiving and it was a great experience. I didn't notice much wear and tear. The staff was great. -
It would never have entered my mind that Celebrity would do this if I hadn't read about it on these boards. So now I know I have to check the prices two ways. PIA. And the results are astounding.

The solos I know including me are flocking AWAY from them.

I'm not concerned about the security alerts because I no longer ever get off the ship in Nassau. It's an automatic sea day for me.

Looking forward to your review and your outfits! I probably won't be sailing Ascent given the current upcharge for solos, but perhaps Celebrity will come to its senses some day. Boarding from Terminal 25 and the suite lounge is fabulous, even though I set off the alarms because I forgot I now have artificial knees! Although we were the first on the ship, my luggage vanished in the process--worst luggage delivery ever. My alert cabin steward finally found it lurking in a hallway somewhere shortly before sailaway.
