Having personally experienced this as a solo cruiser in the Windjammer and other ship buffets, I bring a few table place-holders. Just write whatever you think will work best.

I booked an OVB GTY for Navigator only a couple weeks ago for the 5/6 sailing. I saw a CC thread about a week ago about the bar code trick and cabin assignment using Apple Wallet. I tried it and it worked! Great tip.

I absolutely love to cruise solo. Having cruised many times with someone else, I knew it would be a perfect solo vacation. Be by yourself or chat up and mingle with others ~ it’s your choice. And a cabin all to yourself.

I don’t know for certain this is a new dining time, but I think it may be. If not, sorry to confuse your topic, consider it simple input. I just booked Navigator out of LA for the 5/6-5/10 cruise, and the only time available was the 8pm slot. I thought the former, traditional two dining times were like 6:30 and 8:30.

Gosh, I hope I don't get kicked off Cruise Critic for this topic. It's only meant to open a discussion about changes to the site that may be helpful, and it comes about because I just read a new post that mentions the "search" field and how ineffective it is to find what you're looking for. Did you know the Celebrity board goes back 6329 pages to April 2004? I would not even want to rely on information that's that ancient. Maybe we could come up with some ideas for a more up-to-date Cruise Critic site.

I always use Resort for a Day to find a day pass for resorts.

Confirmed ~ no Keno machines, Game King, or multi-choice game machines on Beyond. The Traveling Gamblers posted an extensive video of the casino on Beyond, showing every machine. They also have a video of Apex, which I had not seen prior to being on the ship this week and finding out first-hand there is no Keno in the casino 😢

Completely agree with you. As a devoted Keno player, it’s a major letdown to not enjoy my evenings in the casino. I hope to hear good news from someone with info about the other Edge class ships re Keno in the casino.

I’m on Apex right now. During pre-planning this cruise, although I had Anytime Dining, I had “reserved” dinner the first night in one of the MDRs. After reading these boards, I understood it would truly be anytime dining and to ignore the reservation. Then, when I first got to my cabin, there was a reservation reminder card waiting for me, so I’m back to square one. So then I went to one of the MDRs and confirmed to ignore the card and choose any MDR at any time. Celebrity needs to unconfuse this issue so the right and left hands are on the same page.

Hi, and thank you if you can A my Q. I’m currently on Apex. Love this ship!! My only disappointment is there are no Keno machines, nor Game King or multi-choice game machines with Keno in the casino. Can anybody tell me if there are any Edge class ships that have any of the above machines?

I’m on Apex now, reporting back on Keno machines. 😭😭 No Keno. No Game King machines at all, nor multi-game machines. I was so looking forward to playing Keno 😢 The final sting is I Love this Ship. I do not even mind the infinite veranda. I want to book another Edge class right now, but I must know if I can play Keno on the ship.

I’ve been on dozens of Royal Caribbean cruises, only recently started cruising Celebrity, and when Celebrity announced some months ago that CoCocay would be now included on Celebrity itineraries, there seemed to be a majority of Celebrity cruisers on Cruise Critic who were/are completely against, angry, hostile, upset about the addition of RC’s private island. Having been there, I absolutely love it. Something for everyone at every age for a beach experience.

I think it was around $35

🎉Happy New Year, to you, too!!

I took a screenshot for you of a YouTube video I recently watched re Apex (so should be the same) porthole veranda cabin that shows a very convenient US outlet next to the bed.

Thank you all for your responses. Very helpful. Happy cruising to all of you!

Please excuse my naivety. I don’t treat myself to a luxurious spa experience very often, and never have while on a Celebrity cruise. I booked a 75-min massage and I’m wondering if I am entitled to enjoy the spa access in any other way since I’ve paid for my entry. How early May I arrive prior to my appt, and is there a spa experience I could indulge in while waiting for my appt time? Please share your tips. Thank you.

Thank you for posting. I’ll be on Apex 1/6 (so excited!!). It’s wonderful to read your positive words. I agree with MagPie60, I believe the majority of dissatisfied Celebrity cruisers are in the higher echelons, although it’s true also that cutbacks and higher prices cover all levels, and all cruise lines, I’m sure.

There were a few Game King multi-game machines with Keno on Eclipse that I played on earlier this year.

I’m an only-Keno machine player and will be on Apex Jan 6, so I’ll let you know.

I was on Eclipse in August and had seen the WW tasting listed in the app planner in the days prior to cruise. I believe it was held the day after embarking, first sea day. Showed up at Cellar Masters about 15 mins prior to event, and glad I did. I really liked it. Stations set up with wine from several countries and a nice spread of wine-complementary munchies.

Fixed it !! Googled the 400 Bad Request Safari msg, instructed to go to Settings to clear cache and data from Safari. I’m not at all techie but did both ~ then when I went to Celebrity to sign in, I was happily rewarded with the auto-fill sign-in option again 😊

I’m in solo, too. I always go through every possible scenario in a mock booking to find the best price on a veranda cabin, constantly checking for updated deals. I’ll be on Apex 1/6, having booked an unobstructed Edge Solo from last year’s Black Friday sale, all-inclusive for $1946. Probably never see that price again.

48 days!!
