Have you noticed any improvements on your recent HAL cruise & what were they, on what ship ?

How do you rank Celebrity as your choice when searching for your next cruise? If Not Celebrity then what cruise line will you select ?

Good News :

usually $5 on Black Jack & poker tables . Craps back line bets are $5 place for the 4,5,9,10 & $6 for the 6&8 place bets .The line is $5 & only 2 chips behind the line for odds . The back line numbers & the pass line are the only true odds bets on craps tables .Good Cash management is essential in craps. hope this is helpful for you

Next HAL cruise we would book we want the gratuities included or price reduction .We believe that many consumers will soon be tapped out due to this ever lasting inflation ;which we feel will impact cruise sales

So is rack of lamb with mint jelly available in the MDR on Soltice ? TIA

We always find the cruise lines beach bags very handy when shopping

To get better food upgrade the cruise line ,like to Oceania or Seaborn or Viking .

imo The best place to get the correct information about the tenders is phoning Celebrity

We sail March 11th on Soltice .How do you get the Celebrity App on a I Phone to download .We are in our 80s & this is a challenge Thanks in advance

What is the last boarding time ?

Do they shut the gates at 4PM ? TIA

Wondering when the latest boarding time is allowed ? TIA

Thank you all for your very insightful points on how you perceive value on HAL cruises

Instead of giving the normal cruise experiences like good entertainment on the World Stage which is typical on just about every cruise line they come out with much lower costing items in the form of this announcement .Of the public accepts it ,management has a winner ;but ,on the other hand should this not go over as big as they think it should ,then it is a ditrement to sales

If people accept the changes like in Pinnacle Rest ,the management will come up with some additional wacky things that turn more profits their way .Funny things happen when people balk & turn away

This word supply chain & shortages is used for control just like what has been associated with covid .In reality there is no supply chain shortages just man made . The truth is hidden from the mass populations .Thus ,there really is no supply chain shortages for cruise lines either. imvho

Well this thread just convinced us to not dine at Pinnacle . Just too much padding the bill . It is not that we could not afford a dinner there but the policy charging if you have soup & a salad . This is nickel & dimeing & imo just stinks .Penny wise & loose face.

Looks great . The tasting is in the future

It is not only about wine corkage fees ;which we agree is a minor amount of money , what this is all about is how HAL words or doesn't word policies to make it very clear ,so that these discussions would never exist . We have seen on these cruise threads many items discussed to clear up the fog which cruise lines can & do create . We as pax also create fog ,at times . It is human to make mistakes

Jim aren't the show times on the World Stage 6 & 8 PM .if the ship has a show scheduled at those hours ? .We book with any time dining ,so we can work around the show times . We too enjoy music walk ;but ,as you know not all ships have a music walk . Cliff

We are looking forward to your posts 😀.We follow you March 11th & March 18th .

That is what makes this world go around ,we all have different needs & wants . We love good sea food & great steaks & lamb chops .Now you can not get that in the MDR ,at any time

That time would conflict with a show at the World Stage ,if they have it ,at that time ,so not for us . We would schedule our diner to coincide with the show

If HAL would say give a MDR food credit for dinners then we could dine in all the special restaurants . Wouldn't that be a novel idea ,so we can upgrade our dinner experience.
