  1. I was finally able to get into my account. It took substantially longet than before, but it's working for me.
  2. The end of the world has not arrived. The status match program will have very little effect overall, other than giving a few Silversea cruises a bad case of sour grapes.
  3. There are only a small number of airlines I know of (all of them being Asian airlines) that will make a big deal about middle names. They care more about the name on your ticket matching your frequent flyer account.
  4. Disposable gloves are cheap insurance. Never buffet without one.
  5. Maybe that's true for Carnival or Motel 6, but anything advertising itself as 4* or higher should certainly be able to accommodate special needs.
  6. Has anyone ever tried the White Star Tavern? It's listed as a 5*, but I never trust those ratings.
  7. All that is marketing speak for "Don't look behind the curtain. Everything will be the same."
  8. WFM is the normal buffet. It's just a branding. "A buffet by any other name..."
  9. This is a fleet-wide issue. Another sign that Celebrity doesn't care about its passengers.
  10. I don't know. I think people will continue posting here, maybe double-posting to both threads.
  11. No cons for us. We were scheduled to do this cruise in May, but had to cancel because my wife had pneumonia.
  12. You're better off this way. To get the PUP emails, you have to opt in for all marketing emails, which can be as many as six per day. Monitoring this thread is a far better option. And since there is nothing to distinguish one activity from another, you can use the same screenshot over and over again.
  13. That's not a glowing recommendation. Overall, Celebrity has the worst specialty restaurants of all the lines we're cruised.
  14. All the evidence is against the TA. Experience does not equal competence.
  15. You can choose to pay the extra or not. They're not forcing you to do anything. It's no different than airlines charging a ridiculous premium for a refundable fare.
  16. Everything goes on your shipboard account. Gratuities and all other expenses will be taken off any credits you have.
  17. It's funny how people in each of the programs are overreacting that their favourite cruise line is giving away the crown jewels and will be totally destroyed by the status match program. It's especially bad over in the Silversea forum.
  18. It's also included if you charter a yacht and hire people to do your laundry. Both of which are completely irrelevant.
  19. It's all about the laundry... (I recall doing laundry on the Silver Moon was a real PITA.)
