A free burger and fries at the Mast Grill would be in order. 😀

Your flight must leave after 11:30 am out of FLL. Ending time is dependent on the airline. You have to pay the Luggage Valet fee and any baggage fees imposed by your airline.

There is no Murano MDR on any of the E-class ships. Murano is a specialty restaurant on S-class ships. You must be thinking of Tuscan Grill Specialty Restaurant and the Tuscan MDR.

There is a cheese platter and a cheese/ cold cuts platter in both Eden Cafe and Blu for breakfast. Not the variety or quality of cheeses available in the Murano specialty restaurant.

If your husband wants to wear shorts, he can eat at the Oceanview Buffet.

Agree. There are many long time Celebrity cruisers who continue to book despite their unhappiness. Many posts cite having booked several future cruises. This is not sending a message. One cruiser told me that they are not happy but continue to cruise as they get a "free" bag of laundry. Believe me, he has paid for that bag in some way.

We did a Summer cruise in the Caribbean. It was great on the ship but miserable in the ports that we stopped. If you are thinking of getting away in the Summer, I suggest Alaska or go to New England in September and early to mid October. Newport, RI is a real nice stop.

If there are days and times that you really want, then book it ahead of time. The savings may not be as good as a package but at least you know when your reservation is. We also do not like to eat after 7 pm and on some cruises, those may be the only times available. On our cruise on Ascent, there were good deals on several of the restaurants at 30% off with very good times. On our previous cruise, no discounts and limited availability. So it is a gamble in a sense.

OP may be working on a master's thesis. Or has nothing else to do.

Yes, it is available. Luggage was picked up the night before leaving the ship and the next time I saw the luggage was at our home airport. Able to use OBC to pay the fee for Luggage Valet.

Then why do they carry so many caskets on board?

We were offered it on Equinox but we were full. I shouldn't have had 2 appetizers! I believe it is listed as the "Cheese Course" on the Menu.

Been on S class for about 13 cruises. On one cruise, it was closed on sea days but we were allowed in. An investment seminar was being held and this was on the Silhouette in Alaska. Great place to relax.

We also miss the Corning shows which were educational. These are now different and a revenue generating program on board. Not as interesting.

It is open to all. Even when there is a private event such as a seminar, I was allowed in to read with no issues.

We were on the Ascent in Grand Cayman and had priority service for Elites. Met the hostess at the Tuscan MDR and she escorted the 2 of us directly to the tender area. Yes, there were only 2 of us. We were in one of the first tenders. Worked well. What probably helped was that there were only two ships in port.

A staff member from Sales in Miami answered my latest call. She communicated clearly and was knowledgeable. A price adjustment was done on the spot. I was delighted with the service.

I called Celebrity twice this week to service my existing cruise reservation. Each time, a customer service representative answered within a minute. This is a sharp contrast to my past experiences. In addition, the issue was resolved quickly without a need to contact a supervisor. I hope this continues. Each time I was prepared for a long wait and was pleasantly surprised.

No promotions on our latest Ascent cruise. Make sure you compare prices before booking.

Check out the spreadsheet. The room characteristics should be the same whether in the past or present.

Both on Equinox and Beyond, she talked about meeting her at her favorite jewelry shop on board, then favorite watch shop. I never heard another captain advertise like that on Celebrity.

If she wants to sell jewelry on her own time off the ship, that is fine. I don't care for her advertising over the public address system in her role of being a captain. To me, it does not enhance the image of a captain at all in my opinion.

But the heads are not poorly paid.

The price increase has been a turn off as the food in the 4 MDRs is excellent. Eden has been the consistent standout winner with Le Grand Bistro being really good.

It is Anytime Dining on the E-class ships. We had reservations for different nights and were told on day 1 that it was Anytime Dining for all. It was a waste of time booking reservations. So we just showed up when we wanted to dine and ate. Easy.
