I agree with the butler not being needed during the cruise but it is my understanding that the tips are no longer included in SS prices. With that being said, I feel X has downgraded service but hasn't reduced the price. SS are becoming a very high priced luxury that falls short of the benefits.

I believe that there is a move in the cruising industry to reduce services that have been long held dear to veteran cruisers. Those perks will go by the wayside and the only people who will realize the changes are the veterans. There are far more new cruisers taking cruises today who really never experienced those perks we complain about on this site losing. As veteran cruisers, it is imperative that we voice our concerns on this site as well as in person onboard ships. Money talks and so must your business. If you feel the line is doing you a disservice than you have to rethink your line loyalty.

Great news to hear Celebrity brought Bongo back. I have always seen many people attend the sessions on previous cruises. Thanks for all who responded.

We have sailed in suites numerous times and we have used the butler to assist us in planning excursions, answers to questions we had about the cruise and we enjoy a night cap so they would have fresh Baileys Irish Cream everyday.

Thanks for the responses. I always attended Bingo and it was a big draw. Maybe they will change their minds. Happy Sailings!

We booked an 8 day Caribbean route on Reflection in Feb. 2024. We were hoping that Bingo will make a comeback on Celebrity ships. We recently sailed on Edge and Summit. We always write a review asking for Bingo to come back as an activity. Does anyone have info on the return of Bongo!

Can anyone advise if there is a Retreat Check-In area at Cape Liberty NJ?

Money grab is right. Thanks for the feedback

If my in-laws are not getting off the ship while we are in Bermuda, do they need to submit this form and pay the money?? TIA
