    This reminds me of our search for chips onboard X ships. My husband loves to get his salt fix by eating chips of any variety. Celebrity does not have chips anywhere we have found in our cruising history! So now he brings a few small bags with him to get him through 😂

     

    I always bring a bag of cashews and pretzels on board along with several smaller baggies so that when I have my afternoon beers at the Mast Bar, I'm all set! Inevitably I'm asked by a fellow passenger(s) where did I get them. 🤭

    I don't really care if i receive the points and don't even check them because I am Elite Plus and the number of points I would need to reach Zenith are two times more than I have accumulated since I started sailing Celebrity in 1996. 

     

    We are in the same boat, so to speak, so I decided I have participated in my last PUP webinar (unless they give me real CC points at 1:1).

    Good luck everyone, I'm outta here!

  3. From the X website:

    "Today, the Canadian government shared their decision for their ports to remain closed through February, 2022. We are working through the resulting impacts to our itineraries that visit Canada and we will communicate all updates and alternatives to you or your travel advisor by no later than Friday, February 12. We know this is disappointing news, particularly as it relates to the Alaska cruise season. We continue to maintain our focus on all efforts to resume service with the health, safety and well-being of our guests, the communities we visit, and our crew and shoreside employees as our highest priority."

    Hoping for a L&S option for our Solstice cruise in June despite L&S having expired.

    Try signing in using an InPrivate or Incognito window.  It works perfectly.  That's the only way I access the X website! 

     

    Example please? I can get to my booked cruises from the X website by clicking on "already booked". However, I can't leave that page to the main menu. If I click on the Celebrity logo nothing happens, it should take me to their homepage but it doesn't. When I click on login, it just keeps recycling to their homepage and I am not logged in.

    Still, it's quite a contrast to the terrific camera and mic work on Carol Cabezas, the President of the new independent Azamara.  If LLP is going to dominate every webinar the way she does, it is incumbent on her to make sure Celebrity IT fixes the problems on her end.  When the entire webinar was a technical disaster, it was one thing – but for every other part to be top notch and her mic to suck???

     

    Their IT fix something! They have been unable to fix their website for years. I have been unable to sign in for 3-4 weeks and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

    To what presentation are you referring? We are talking about the Apex webinar which won't take place until next week.

    If they are linked to you CC number they all will get the PUPs. 

     

    Has anyone received APEX PUP's yet?

    And I got the same exact email as well.  Sad to see no acknowledgement that they disenfranchised the West Coast...

     

     

    I watched the presentation, and what I found interesting was that when I ran my cursor over # of participants it was never higher than 58!

    We managed to register but, since we never received the points for the Galapagos offer, we are not confident we will get these either. 

    I finally called the CC and the person that answered told me that she does not have the information, she has to send an email to the person in Marketing that oversees this program. YIKES! I asked her if she couldn't just look at my account and tell me if there was a recent 5 point accrual. NO! I was told I should hear back in a week or two!

    As someone previously said, why do we bother, they have gutted the CC program and its not worth the effort for the points awarded (unless you are 5 points away from the gutted Zenith level).

     

    Record setting service from X. They posted the 5 points today!

    Oh I hope they do, that would be the nice thing to do and would definitely win 'points' with the loyal cruisers.

     

    I received the email for X. So far the big difference is that after RC came out with the offer and in short order they changed it to include already booked cruises. Celebrity still as the offer as bookings made from today. Let's hope they make the change as well to include bookings already made.

    The latest booking offer was 8/19 had to be a sailing between 1/1/2021 and 8/31/2021 and was 80 PUP for balcony or up, I think 50 for inside/oceanview.  If you did a L&S of a previous reservation that would not qualify.  

     

    The book the retreat offer was 7/1 - 7/12

    I received the points today because it was not an L&S as I thought but it was booked before the offer came out so I am happy they honored it. 

  12. Just disembarked from Edge this morning, we had a great New Years Eve on board! Back to the point, Richard Fain was aboard with his family and he was good enough to host a Q&A with the guests. Believe me, there was a lot of good and bad that he became aware of. Some of it was really important, like issues for handicap access at several locations on board, while some of it was frivolous nonsense. At the end, I felt like he listened and will bring back to the office those items which deserve attention.
