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.

Make sure you are booking the same class of service. It can be confusing with Basic Economy, Economy, etc. Sometimes, it is not clear on the Celebrity site.

I have found that if we get an experienced room attendant, there has not been a. problem. Lately, we have had new, inexperienced staff and I guess they are following the letter of the law. I bring home the bubbly and serve it as part of mimosas for guests. Actually, it is not bad when served that way.

We had no luck making an exchange on Beyond and Ascent. However, we were able to do so on the Equinox 2X and Reflection.

It is available at the Mast Grill on Celebrity. Also, you can find it on German night at the Oceanview Buffet.

I really don't know about the financial end of things. But on this cruise, there was plenty of availability and there were nice discounts available nightly at most of the Specialty Restaurants.

Definitely Eden. You should be able to make reservations now or in a couple of weeks. Eden is very popular and fills up quickly. Not a fan of Roof Top as it is subject to weather. On our cruise, due to winds and rain, it was closed. Not good if celebrating an anniversary. They did try to get people into other venues. When we ate at Roof Top, this poor waiter had nearly all the table to serve. Never had that at Eden in all of our visits there. Plus it is indoors with a great view.

If you like their pizza, you will like the burgers. 😀

On Ascent, I wanted to use unused OBC to give to selected staff. I was given the form at Guest Services and brought the form to the employees I wanted to tip. They each filled out a line with their name, employee number and then signed. No problem. All were very appreciative. Money. was deducted from the OBC account.
