No, this thread is just about a rumor they might discontinue butler service for lower suites.

Its more than a rumor. I understand that they have already fired a number of Butlers. Check it out with celebrity club concierge.

That is very interesting because they say they only give you a maximum of $300. Maybe yours was special because of that particular cruise. Last fall we were on the MIllenium to China/Japan and they didn't offer us any percentage off on the cruises we were interested in. I will try again in November and see what happens.

Celebrity doesnt give you much of an incentive to buy on board. Better lines such as Seabourn and others give you an additional 5 percent to reserve a future cruise when you are on board.

Increased SOME but mainly it IS the Edge and the Apex is to come and there won't be a Solstice class ship from Florida.

 

Check this out....for March 2020, first week:

 

CS Equinox- $6881

 

CS Edge- $11,261

You must be talking about the big suites. I'm paying $4100 for 13 day transatlantic in a Sky suite. Thats not any different than I have been paying

Well, actually, I disagree that the renovations are "high end," but that's a whole different story.   High cost, certainly, particularly having to undo certain dumb decisions.  If they're able to sell these cabins at these prices, God bless them.  I think they're running into a few headwinds.

I think it is more the Edge and the Apex. The "Solstice" ships don't appear to have changed that much.

Is just me, or has anyone else been priced out of the suite class since Celebrities Revolution?  We were very fortunate to get our very first suite this past December, and really loved everything about it.  Since the revolution though, the price of suites has gone way past what we can afford.  I guess this might be Celebrities way of keeping the rif-raf out.
