  1. Wines not on the list will likely be over the Premium limit and not included.
  2. How early do you think we need to be at the theater? Is there reserved seating for Retreat guests?
  3. jjelayne, thanks! So you would suggest arriving more like 7-715 for time to eat, grab a drink, and see the later show?
  4. What are your recommendations for the best dinner time/show combo (shows at 7:30 and 9:30 on Ascent)? Any preference for the early or late showtime? I'm thinking arriving Luminae at around 7:45-8 (before folks from the early show arrive?), which should give time for a leisurely meal and then a cocktail, perhaps at Martini Bar, before the late showtime. Thoughts?
  5. OnAscent in a week - is full room service (breakfast ) free of charge?
  6. Can anyone post the current Retreat lounge menu on Ascent?
  7. So I posed a follow-up question to Laura: Just to clarify, when you say "the Retreat", you are including all Retreat guest-only venues, correct? Including Luminae, the Retreat Lounge and the Retreat pool bar? Her response: Everything on the menus in those three venues are included in the premium package. There have been and continues to be items for an extra charge and those are available upon request. We are currently redesigning all our wine menus to have more variety, diversity, inclusions, and even more high-end wines by the glass via coravin (those will have an upcharge). We plan to have these in place by the Spring and I know everyone will be pleased. Takes time for us to procure and re-adjust. The team is well into it and I know all our guests will be happy with the options and choices.
  8. The response I got today from lhodgesbethge@celebrity.com: Please know that what is served within the Retreat is included in the premium package. Laura Hodges Bethge President, Celebrity Cruises Office: 305.982.2520 Mobile: 786.553.8961 lhodgesbethge@celebrity.com
  9. Celebrating our 35th and wanted to book something special one night for our Jan 14 cruise. Is a Le Voyage prebooking only for the a la carte menu? Can you not prebook the tasting menu? How much pp is the tasting menu when purchased onboard? Thanks!
  10. So does anyone else agree that my Ascent menu at Luminae should start with Day 1 menu?
  11. We booked with this company since the Celebrity option was sold out. It sounds like the exact same tour. Our tour date is Jan 17, 2024. No e mail about cancellation yet. Are you on the Jan 17 tour? We are.
  12. So I believe the Luminae menu changes every 14 days. Is there a way to know in advance if my Jan 14 departure will be starting with Day 1 of the 14 day rotation or Day 8? Thanks!
  13. I did not know this and we are in a Sunset Sky Suite. So I guess I have to go searching for a butler . . . Also, what kind of requests can you place through this service? Dedicated pre-cruise Retreat Concierge. Call 1-877-RETREAT.
  14. We haven't cruised in many years and I'm curious what your favorite/regular "special requests" are for your suite butler. When should we expect to meet our butler or is there a way to call them once onboard? I assume they can arrange special dining reservations? What else do you ask your butler to do for you? Thanks!
  15. I hear great things about Luminae but it might be nice to venture out one night to another restaurant. What one restaurant would you pick if you were to cheat on Luminae for a night? 🙂
  16. I'm already paying an arm and a leg for my Sunset Sky Suite so I don't think I need to go in deeper.
  17. I actually spied Monkey 47 in a Retreat video. Very high end German gin. Highly recommended.
  18. I'm a gin drinker and always looking for something better than your everyday Tanqueray. What exotic gins do they typically have on Edge class ships? Are there certain bars that carry unique brands? I'm on Ascent in January. Thanks!
  19. We will be on Ascent in January and Luminae is expected to be great. But, should we consider Le Voyage? We are foodies from the NYC area and have been to Daniel in the city. Is Le Voyage special enough? I believe we have to pay even though we are in Retreat, correct? Thanks!
