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.

There were very good deals on Le Voyage on the Ascent. But we stayed with Eden as the views werethe deciding factors. Views of the kitchen and views of the sea.

I believe you mixed up your terms. Seattle offers Port Valet which is complimentary except for any airline baggage fees. Luggage Valet is offered in Florida and there is a fee of $29 plus any airline baggage fees.

I would reserve early so as to enjoy the view. I would personally avoid booking when there is a show going on above you.

To further complicate matters on the Beyond, we had one night at 7 and 9 and the rest were 7:30 and 9:30.

On the Ascent and Beyond in the Caribbean, the shows were at 7:30 and 9:30.

I am not so sure your Celebrity level would be elevated. You may want to watch the webinar. I am thinking that you would be entitled to the benefits of Zenith via Pinnacle but would not have Celebrity Zenith status. It can be confusing.

It seems that many adult kids are still living with Mommy and Daddy.

I had renewed mine last year and had expected a major delay. It also only took 2 weeks via the Routine mode. I was very surprised.

What ship?

Plastic on Beyond and Ascent.

There are a few locations in Aqua Class that I tend to avoid. One is under the gym. I am a light sleeper and tend to be bothered by sounds. Not for me. I have enjoyed the amenities of Aqua Class. I make use of the Persian Gardens and really enjoy the food and ambience of Blu. Especially breakfast in Blu. Enjoy.

I went through the same back in the Winter. I was getting daily email reminders to pay off the balance or else the reservation would be cancelled. It seems that there were two screens. One was the agent's which indicated all was well and there was the one I received showing an additional balance. The balance never went away and the cruise went off just fine. But it was frustrating that after numerous calls that nothing could be corrected to the statement I was receiving.

On 7 day cruises, there will be 3 production shows. The first night usually features a comedian. Then there will a tribute singer or group, and some other 'guests'. . On our last cruises, there was no live band on sailaway. The DJ played some tunes and that was it.

On the Beyond, we were not able to order from the MDR. However, we were able to do so on the Ascent. You should be aware that when you dine at any restaurant, your assigned dining room is notified. So when we dined in the MDR, a notification went to the maitre'd at Blu.

You will be randomly assigned a dining time if you are booked in Blu. It does not mean anything. A computer glitch which has been going on for years. Also, Beyond has Anytime Dining. We had 'reservations' and were told it was Anytime Dining and just show up when we wanted to eat. We ate dinners both in Blu and also in one of the MDRs and it was just show up when ready.

I am sure there would be some 'choice' messages left. 🤪 On our cruise, a couple tastefully decorated their door but items did disappear during the cruise. So don't put anything on the door that has sentimental value. However, it was annoying that in the same floor, there were numerous large advertising signs for a travel agency that I assume had booked the rooms. Tacky.

Nothing has changed. You need to read the menu where they are listed. I ordered the sirloin and salmon on different nights. There was also chicken breast available.

We received $21 and $16 dollar retail (U.S.local store). wines from Spain. Actually, pretty good.
