Hi There- I've read the threads about the docking station in the suites on Infinity, but i haven't seen any thing about whether there is a dock or speakers in Aqua Class cabins.
Does anyone know? I'm trying to avoid bringing a jawbone, etc. to listen to a little music in the room.
Thanks!

We are sailing in September to Alaska. Excited to see this ship. I appreciate the more seasoned ships. :)

We were C3, but nabbed the AQ upgrade when it went "on sale". We received a $60 *credit*. Hubbard Glacier cruise in September.

Our first X cruise was in a CS with only a butler as a suite perk! Our second was in an M class PH when the only perks were a butler and two bottles of spirits!
We think, in fact we know, the suite experience has seriously improved!
For a while we took several RC cruises as well as X because we did enjoy some of the suite perks they offered, especially the conceirge lounge.
I think people are used to expecting more for their money AI resorts, hotels with included 'club' cocktail hours....
I think X is trying to keep up with trends like this, offering a more inclusive option if you want one.
On our last couple of cruises we have seen the number of younger cruisers increasing, could be the itineraries we chose but I think the marketing of bars like the Martini Bar are appealing to the twenty/thirty something market who have outgrown the RC experience themselves. They are looking for a calm, relaxing and 'chic' environment in which to spend their hard earned salaries. In contrast we have not seen that many family groups...
The world is changing, we all expect improvement and change but then we don't like change if it is something we particularly like! For example, much as I know the X speciality menus very well and would like to see some new items I would hate them to remove my favourites!
I have no intentions of abandoning ship now or in the near future! No ship or cruise line is perfect but X seems to offer the experience we are seeking at present.
This. We booked with Celebrity because we are looking for a calm, relaxing and stylish environment in which to spend our money. I don't see how seeking value triggers a culture shift of the type of cruisers loyal to Celebrity. Quite the contrary- those who seek and get value are more apt to spend the 5 or 6k-before flights - on Celebrity, again. Also, who wouldn't want to avoid the bar tab at the end of the cruise!? We booked an Alaskan cruise in September to avoid kids and luxuriate on a ship passing through glaciers. If we wanted to party like rock stars, we would go to an island in the sun.
