Excited to view your pictures. Thank you

The DL on the Enchantment is one of our favorites. The staff is so friendly. They usually open the VCL as an overflow when there are many Diamonds onboard. Have taken many cruises on Enchantment, and all have been excellent.

Thanks for the great review. Just booked Anthem for November and loved reading about your cruise. What is your Facebook name?

Thanks so much for the great review, pics and video. Can't wait for our cruise on her in November.

Looking forward to your review, just booked Anthem today for Nov 10th

So excited to be following your review. Just booked Anthem this morning.

Just did a b2b2b last month. Had a great 14 days. Will be anxiously awaiting all your posts.

Great review so far, and love the pics

Thanks for the info, I will introduce myself to both Brian and Derek since we will be on three cruises.

Anyone know who is in the CL and DL on Brilliance? We board in six days and can't wait! Is the CL and DL both in Viking? Thanks

You will be Elite on Celebrity. You used to have to just sign up with Celebrity and your status would automatically be assigned.

When I had my issues with the Voucher drinks, I always had a dollar in hand with my card. I just didn't like the feeling that I was trying to get something that I didn't deserve. Always had great service I the CL and DL. We just try to go there if there is room. Will be on Brilliance in 10 days, so planning on visiting the lounge, and may try the voucher drinks one night.

Thanks for your post. Doing a b2b2b next month. Glad you had a good time. Saw you mentioned breakfast in Chops. I had read that it was Gold card only, but you mentioned Diamond +, that would be great if we could access Chops as Diamond +. Did you go to any shows? Was the Casino smoky? Thanks!

Do you know what brand of Chardonnay and Merlot are on the Brilliance now? We are there in 3 weeks, and can't wait. Thanks

I like the new system. We sometimes will go into the Diamond or Concierge Lounge and have a drink or two, then occasionally I will stop by a bar and have a drink in the theater or casino and use one of the voucher drinks, depending when we are dining that night. Have had a few issues with the vouchers. A couple times it was a "time" issue. I waited in line at the Casino bar, and it was crazy busy so I decided to go to the bar in the theater and waited for a couple minutes there, and when I got up to order my drink, the bartender said "you're too late, I can't serve you now". I know I was in line in time, but I just left without my drink. Lesson learned, don't try to get a drink if the bar is busy and it's close to 8:30. Another time, there was one bartender in the Plaza Bar in Windjammers, and the first three nights, she kept telling me that there were no drinks loaded on my card, so I went to another bar and got my glass of wine. No problem. Then a couple nights later I went to another bar and waited, and started to order my drink and another bartender stepped over to take my order, and it was the same one from the Plaza Bar, again she claimed I didn't have any drinks loaded. After that cruise, we decided we would just go to the Lounge and only order from the other bars occasionally. It definitely is a nice perk, and I try not to let things like this ruin my cruise. Look forward to this special perk on our B2B2B next month on the Brilliance.

Thanks for the review. We are doing the same itinerary next month. Who is the Captain? Hope the weather is great for the rest of the cruise.

I guess it depends on the ship. We were on the Grandeur a couple years ago and they definitely had some Black Friday sales. The usual $10 items were 3 for 20, and they had some buy 2, get one free on items. They area was a mass of people and I didn't hang around too long. It was basically the same items you usually see, but people were buying like crazy.

Thanks for the quick reply. Can always count on your!

Does anyone have a recent list of what offers are loaded onto card for Diamond+

Did a search and only could find any recent posts. Thanks so much

Thanks again

Will be on the Brilliance for a B2B2B (4,5,5 nights). Does it matter if they are shorter cruises, would I get the full discount and can Hubby and I combine discounts like we could on the old offer of free minutes? I like to keep in touch with family, so would like to access it everyday, but don't need unlimited access and really don't want to spend $280. Thanks so much for all the help

Can anyone tell me what the new internet discount is? First time cruising since the new pricing went inti effect. Thanks

Thanks for letting us follow along. We almost booked this last minute but things didn't work out. We love the Liberty, and would have loved this cruise,

Thanks for the info

Never sailed out of Galveston before, have a couple questions. Which airport is the

best one to fly into? About how far is the airport from the cruise ship pier?
