Did people find it easy to get the benefit as canadians? Interested in possibly getting it as sail princess.
Why would it be hard?
never had a problem with RCL/ Celebrity -
Group pricing is not as good as it was a couple years ago
our TA group price on up coming fall Transatlantic was $4200 CAD for 2 in a V2 cabin, included taxes, drink package , wifi and refundable
we were able to book a basic V2 for $1666 cad with taxes , we are Elite , so the perks will be enough for us
our OBC will cover tips ,
so $2600 for drinks is a lot
a couple years ago group price was about the same as a basic cruise

This was our first and last Celebrity cruise.
If that was your last Celebrity cruise why are you on this section of the forum 🤔

A reader who wanted to remain anonymous forwarded a picture of last nights Lambs Ball appetizer. Interesting plating.
Did they make that for the upside down pineapple 🍍 group ?🤔🤣

I go to the X webpage and in the upper right hand corner is a link titled “Offers”. When you click on that link one of the options is Excited Deals which brings you to this page https://www.celebritycruises.com/cruise-deals/exciting-deals?icid=spclff_tctclp_xct_hm_other_206
Once on that page I click the “From Canada” link at the top right which then brings me to Canadian pricing of the exciting deals.
Good Luck.See post #22

Wow....that's just crazy...
Crazy yes, but the deposit for cabins have always been high , even on an inside cabin we had to pay a deposit of $480CAD a person since 2016, most of cruise before that were bought after final payment date
here the invoice for a Suez Canal cruise in 2017, booked in 2016 , got lucky ,it was sale of $50 deposit
but in the fine it ask for $960 for the cabin, and a suite would be double
and the military discount was better back than it was $280 pp, instead of $100 pp they have now

Is this a daily thing until you are approaching North America again? One hour per day? That would mean one hour more sleep per day which my husband will love.
On our next TA Lisbon to Port Carnival it a 5 hour time difference
Between Tenerife and Hamilton is 4 hour and 5 seadays , so it will change almost everyday
and than one change after Hamilton

The biggest difference is more sea days and more activities on the ship. On an eastbound cruise you 'lose' five / six hours - clocks are usually set forward one hour at noon and the days get a little shorter - on westbound cruises the clocks are set back one hour at 2 am - nights with longer sleep. In both cases, you cross the Atlantic without jet lag.
Celebrity has always change their clocks at 2 am on the 5 eastbound cruise we have been

What change or changes causing this? I am returning to Celebrity after considerable absence and accepted the fact that it is no longer the Celebrity of pre-2010 I am familiar with.
What is the same since 2010 🤣

Also for Suites it is now either a $900 pp deposit OR 10% whichever is higher. In our case if they want to pretend they are a Premium Carrier -- we will be booking with a real premium cruise line instead.
I would love 10% deposit 😁
on our November cruise our deposit is 58% of the cruise price

Love what @spunks has shared as we are about to do our first TA cruise.
BUT, this time without excursions and wandering time in cities and towns also opens you up to spending more time eating and drinking.... we will definitely work to control this....
That may be true for the first couple of seadays but by the end of cruises you should be to your usual eating & drinking patterns

My husband and I are booked on the June 9 sailing of the Solstice to Alaska. We are booked in an Aqua Class cabin. I made some move up bids for all the suites and on Monday night, there were exactly 2 Royal Suites, 8 Celebrity Suites and 7 Sunset Suites still available. Today, I asked my TA to price any suite for me as I wanted to just pay for the upgrade outright. He called me back and informed me that there are no more suites available and the sailing is all sold out. I looked to check and the sailing is not even coming up when I do a search.
Is it really possible that they sold all those open suites in a couple of days? It's still 38 days before the cruise...
yes, they could have all sold out in the last couple of days

I learned something about the basic physics that creates the green flash during Kelly Beatty's lecture this morning. Marcia and I seen it twice, once from the Los Angeles coast and once on a cruise--but not this cruise.
I have seen it once on a TA to Amsterdam on the Silhouette
just happen to step out on to balcony at the right time

Who has removed the Canadian pricing? Are you speaking of a TA or X? My screen comes up with Can. $$s. Perhaps your location indicator (at the bottom of the home page) has been changed somehow to US? The page for finding cruises hasn't changed for me.
I been using this link for a couple years and before it would show both CAD and USD pricing
https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Celebrity/Exciting_Deals/CEL_Exciting_Deals.pdf
the format for the public is crap

I don’t like the new format they using , it has more graphics but harder to find cruises easily
also they removed the Canadian pricing
