Just watched webinar with Laura and she say Zenith will always be admitted to Retreat. Matching Zeniths will be available if room available. That is great news. Now the match is great and thanks to X.
-
Everything said so far is what we have experienced. Since Jan we have received an email stating from X that we have purchased premium Bev package and wifi and charge was 0.

We just got off Beyond and we were called 30days before cruise to ask if there is any special things we want. This is sent to retreat concierge. So they know who we are and have pictures at first check point out of terminal 25 or 18 and then in the lounge. We were on deck 7 regular veranda.

I would guess around 300 zenith and :3000 pins.
just off beyond where you use a card for access. But when card dies not work u just walk thru with others.
I the last two months I see tgg he at there are pictures of all Zenith people that are boarding a d in lounge. So there are several ways to check. -
Does anyone have a link so I can sign up. My wife received one but it will not let me use her link. I tried finding on X site but nothing there. thanks.

I hope so. I will see in July.

The one bad thing I read is Zenith members now cannot access Retreat lounge if they are not traveling in a Retreat Suite. If this is true this is a big loss. to Zenith members. Here we go again.

As a Cpap user, the previous OP is correct. The outlets are at the desk. You will need an extension cord and distilled water. you can get those by going on line and filling out a special needs form and emailing it to X. They will have both waiting for you or you may have to ask your attendant.

In summer 2025 there are no 7 day or more cruises out of port everglades, Beyond moves to Miami. Only short cruises remain. I will ask why when we board on the Beyond for a B2B this weekend. I read somewhere the port is doing a lot of capital work. I do not like driving to port in Miami, but we will go anyway.

Thanks for another great review.
Hope to meet up with you both someday. We have only been Z for a couple of years.
Safe travels home.

We just did a B2B on the Ascent in FL. We had to meet at 830am in a meeting room. Time and place to meet varies by ship and port. Process takes 15 minutes unless there is an inspection that day. Then it could vary from up to an hour. There could be 10 to150 people doing this process. Just go with the flow and read your instructions and listen. They may give away prizes depending on how many. It all depends on the ship. They give away wine, spa credit, X stuff, and speciality rest meals. This was last cruise on Ascent where about 60 were on B2B. In other words it varies all the time.

The Ascent cafe baccio on recent cruises was very cold. Needed jacket every morning especially in area nearest aft. I am usually ok. It also varies by cruise and ship. Could be any ship.

I read two weeks.
That would mean No for May 5. We board on the 12th for a B2B. Lets hope for longer extension.

What I have found over the years each cruise is unique to the amount of movies that are available. It has never made any sense. Our last two cruises this year on the ascent there were many movies on demand. In October on the equinox there were many, in July on apex there few. I have found each cruise there is no rhyme or reason to the amount of movies available.

My wife always wears a lanyard because most of her slacks do not have pockets. Since they no longer punch holes in your keys(Ascent in Jan), she bought a new lanyards with a clear plastic pocket to put her key in.

We lived on the South Shore of B town.
I can say on our B2B on the Ascent in Jan in the Cosmopolitan DR we had the best Lobster tail we have ever had, it was buttered and broiled to perfection. We had on both cruises with a the special steak from Normandie. One other note the escargot was also exceptional on these cruises. Each cruise depends on the chef you get. The Ascent had some of the best meals we have had on X MDR or lumina or Blu. We will sailing on the Beyond in May and it will be interesting to see how it compares.

You can put in what ever you have at first. When you get to terminal they will do whatever you do not have. You can put in by hand or scan. They just added scanning feature recently.
Like I said if they do not like the pics you put in they will retake at terminal.
For now just get check in time then worry about other stuff later. You can do weeks later it is saved.
-
you can do on app or on cruise planner. I actually use both some times. It is easier to take picture and enter on app that take a picture then load onto planner.

I forgot credit card is needed.

I just checked in on app this past week. If you want an early time do it at 1201am est. I usually do at 6am est and get 11 or 1130am. I find cruise on app then hit checkin tab. Then you can do both people in room. I then go straight to check in time and get earliest possible. Then I go back and enter information for both people one at a time. You can scan passports and information is then in. Then fill out rest of info. Then take a picture with camera. I usually do that in morning when spouse is awake. So you can come and go with putting info. It will be saved. On arrival day at terminal they may retake picture if your picture is not to their liking.
You may need reservation if the app does not have it saved. I never have needed it.

Reflection is more crowded period, more people. Everything else said is true.

We love the French Bistro, it has a cover of 30 per person but great food. It is on 5. Thats our go to to avoid the buffet even on Port days. Sea days we do mdr that is open usually Cosmopolitan.

We had slippers and robes. I am a size 11 and large person 6ft. Both fit well. We were on Ascent and on deck 7 near elevator and deck 12 sv.

if you have a crown and anchor account, it is already updated to Pinnacle. I did not do anything. My spouse did it by registering. I was unable to use her email but was updated as I said. So if you have an account in C&A do not have to do anything.
