I believe cruising is still a good bang for my buck. I believe that because I can still cruise for a week in a balcony cabin, with very good dining and entertainment thrown in , for what I have to pay for a return economy airline seat for two of us from Toronto to Heathrow. just my two cents worth. I am surprised the cruising industry survived as well as it did after more than two years of little or no revenue coming in.

Quality can be defined as conformance to specifications. The degree to which a product meets the design specifications offering a satisfaction factor that fulfils all the expectations that a customer wants.

After paying several thousand (usually) for a cruise holiday, why do cruisers want to carry their own water on? Ive never had a problem obtaining quality water from the dispensers

Is your brother on cruise critic? If so maybe he could chime in with more details

Most if not all will have words

It was a sunday afternoon and on arrival we just walked outside and spoke to first taxi driver and told him which hotel i wanted to go to in Miami. Asked him if he would go by meter,to which he said yes. On arrival at hotel, his meter I believe was at $81. I gave him a tip as well

When you are logged in to your account, where do you see the offers?

In February 2023, we flew Toronto to Fort Lauderdale , took a cab from airport to hampton Inn South Blue Lagoon Miami for $80. Hotel had offsite shuttle to port in the morning. After cruise we took cruiseline bus transfer back to Fort Lauderdale airport. Even after cab and bus transfer we saved $300 on our airfare. We chose taxi because local transfer companies did not pick up at fort lauderdale airport after 4 pm which was when our flight arrived.

Welcome to cruise critic

I was monitoring a cruise about two months ago at $3800 pp for balcony. When $1. Deposit came last week, the same balcony was $7100. Pp Next day after sale itwas $4850 pp. a lot of fudging with their numbers

We did the ABC Islands on Reflection this year and were in DV 7208. It was an excellent cabin

I just spoke to BCC. 0 wait time to be connected. Rep said the emails with no offer code that have been sent out today was a technical error and the hope to have it fixed by end of today so corrected one can be sent out. I also enquired whether free veranda offers were a thing of the past. He said free veranda offers still exist, and will be sent whenever they are released to BCC, depends on cabin vacancies and time of year

We stayed in the infinite verandah on the edge in Feb/23. The A/C turns off when the window goes down, not when the bifold doors are open. And the A/C only comes back on when the window is closed not when the bifold doors are closed. I think what he is referring to in the video, is that if your room is cooled down, you can open the window and by closing the bifolds , the inside portion of the room will maintain its coolness longer while you are enjoying the veranda portion with bifolds closed. Hope this makes sense

Yes, your point is well taken. Regardless of how I may have come across in my post, my wife and I do enjoy the ambiance as well. We do dress nicely(not tux) every night for dinner on a cruise. Someone said in the news the other day there are one set of laws/rules and they apply equally to everyone.

Only sure way to be 100% accurate is to do one cruise on each one. I seldom pay much attention to reviews as their is no way to tell if the writer is being honest. I take all reviews with a grain of salt. I try not to spend my hard earned money on things that strangers rate. Now i do pay attention to reviews that friends write.

Well although both cabins are prime verandas, 9278 is midship on the hump - a prime location. 9125 is completely forward . I prefer midship and midship in same category is usually a little more expensive than a forward cabin. If it were me , i would have my TA find out why the change and see if there is anything on the hump. However it is your call.

Of course, if you unsubscribe from their emails, I believe that also unsubscribes you from any emails on promotional offers from the Blue Chip Club

Silhouette has a British Isles cruise out of Rotterdam on may 13 and June 24, 2024

But most TA’s are not open on weekends

Which ship was the reputable person on and which sailing. And did they report that it was not available or that it would not be available in the future? You say they are experiencing it. So does that mean they experiencing the current unavailability of it on their cruise or are they experiencing the rumour?

And this is how rumours start.

It is much more casual now than a few years ago

If you have checked the box in your captains club profile that you would like correspondence from Celebrity, then you should get an email each time new power up points promo comes out. We do. Just got ours today

Did you mean URcomped?

On the Edge in Feb/2023, in infinite veranda , did not need key in to turn on lights . Is this just for Aft balconies?
