I read that Qsine will have Le Petit Chef on the updated ships. Can anyone confirm?? It's pricey, but I definitely want to enjoy the experience so I'm hoping this is true!!

 

Guest-favorite restaurant Qsine will be added across the fleet and completely renovated, now offering the brand's virtual Le Petit Chef experience, created by the world-famous artists of Skullmapping and presented by TableMation exclusively for Celebrity.

I would like to know this as well.  I called Celebrity to make a reservation for my April sailing on the Millie and the rep I spoke with said she believed Quisine was to feature LePetit Chef. I hope so as I now have a reservation!

We are on the Millie 16 Feb out of HK to Singapore so one week after out of dry dock. Unfortunately we've only sailed S Class until now so I might not be able to identify a lot of the changes and we are sailing balcony not suite. I will try a live blog, inspired by Jim_Iain and the like, it'll prob be very boring but if anyone has questions I'll try to find the answers!

Looking forward to your review!  I sail on her on April 13th, so anticipating what she will look like!  Wishing you an amazing journey.

I personally, and this is my own opinion, really like the classy look of the muted color scheme.  I will be on the Millie in April and am quite excited to see the updates!  Thank you for posting.

That’s strange. Did you copy and paste the link into a browser? I’ll see if I can make it a hyperlink.

In my opinion X is “downsizing” cabin occupancy, with doubles being their target. That would limit choices for families, or close friends, who would normally book one standard cabin for 3 or 4 persons.

Thanks for the response.  I keep stalking the Millennium Deck plans hoping Celebrity updates them soon on their site and hoping the size of the forward ocean view cabin I have does not change!  🙂. 

Came across these deck plans, thanks for an informational thread as I will be sailing on the Millie after the refit in April!  I truly hope the cabin I am in is not changing in size as I just noticed a few days ago it went from a 3 person cabin to 2.  I am rather hoping that change was due to the additional cabins being placed or people who have secured booking and now at the capacity for having an additional person in the cabin.

We did Shimizu for the day in April this year. I wrote a blog about the day and there are some photos. We did the port on our own.

 

Here's the link

Hi Tsutt35:  I looked for your blog on this and could not get the link to work.  

Thank you so much for sharing the dailies and the amazing videos!  Great trip and review.  Have fun on your future sailings!

Looks like soggy but beautiful day with a lot to see!  Enjoying following along still!

Thank you for allowing us to follow along!  Safe travels. 

Those are amazing!  You truly have a gift for photography. Thank you for sharing.

Love the golden bridge with the “hand”. Looks amazing.  You all look you are having great fun!  Thanks for sharing the photos of your journey!

I was alerted today regarding 20% off sale again.  Select shore excursions and packages. I thought I received them as I am a Captains Club member. 

Loved following along on your sailing. I felt like I was right there and hated to see it end. I will look for your next review on the Summit!  Thank you 😊 

That sunset is BEAUTIFUL.  Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for posting the dailies, I see someone I have followed on YouTube is a part of the entertainment!  I hope she is still on board when I sail as she is quite talented.

Does anyone want to see the dailies so far? 

Yes please, but only if it is not too challenging with the internet speed.

Following along as curious.  I have watched several YouTube videos of the Edge, but none of them show regular balconies or any outside cabins in them.  Have a great trip and look forward to your live blog!

Really enjoying!  Keep it coming.  Have fun getting on that cruise ship, but be prepared you will get hooked and enjoy it so much that is all you want to do for vacations!

Looking forward to following along!  I will be sailing the Millie in April for the Japan Explorer cruise.  Enjoy!

Hi Nancy, I don't have anything booked right now...….Japan sounds lovely. I am sure you will have a great time.

I had fun at Disney.....we stayed on site at The Contemporary.  I must admit, I love cruising much more than the Mouse though.

Yes looking forward to it.  I lucked out and got a great ocean view (booked GTY) I have been assigned 7003 on the Millie! Super excited about that!  Almost feel like I won the lottery!

I turned 60 this year too......back in March. I was supposed to have gone on a cruise but I ended up going to Disneyworld with a longtime friend for a long weekend instead.  I took a 2 week cruise to Italy in July so that was sort of a my belated birthday cruise from me to me.

Life got in the way of the original plan...….had to have a kidney stone removed and was home from work for the week I should have been on a ship.

Hi Lois. I too turned 60 this year and ended up celebrating solo in WDW. Was there in February. Lol. Now this year it is back to cruising and Japan in April is where I am headed. So looking forward to it!

Hope you work something out, last time we waited inside the cruise terminal and the driver came in and found us, had our name on a sign, I told them what time I wanted to be picked up and they where right on time.

Thank you so much!  I emailed them and shortly after received a response with a very reasonable quote.  They let me know the driver would meet us inside the terminal at the specified time and take us to our hotel.  This will be so much easier than finding a luggage transfer service and hoping our luggage appears in time and not having to navigate the train system and transfers.  It is a much faster mode of transportation as well.  Less than half the time than it would have been with any other mode of transportation.  One more thing checked off my to do list!

Hi,

  I am cruising on Celebrity Millennium in April next year and i have booked a transfer

  from Yokohama terminal to a hotel in Shinjuku. The company i am using is Tokyo Airporter

  and the cost is 11000 yen for two of us.I used this company last time i cruised there and they where very good, easy to arrange booking over the internet. Hope this helps.

Thank you, as I have not heard anything from the hotel yet I will outreach this company and see what they would charge.  Did they say they would pick you right up at the terminal?  That would indeed be a large plus.  I too am sailing in April I wonder if we are on the same cruise!
