  1. Thank you! We have that cabin booked for a future cruise. I had no sound so wasn’t able to hear anything.
  2. I just googled it. It’s made of 100% Blue Agave. No mention of wine in it at all. Not sure why they call it a wine cocktail. Makes sense why it hasn’t been allowed to be brought on board
  3. I think B2B are hit or miss. There were only about 20 people on our last B2B and we weren’t Invited to the lunch. It’s not that great anyway, so probably wouldn’t have even gone
  4. I have seen this question asked before……..it wasn’t allowed on board
  5. There was a big sale last year on Labor Day. We upgraded from classic to premium for $5.99/day. Cheapest I have ever seen. I think the cost for premium was about $55/day
  6. I didn’t see any jackets at all on our last cruise, but I did see 2 people go into Luminae in shorts and they were told that they had to change into pants.
  7. They do not use paper straws. They look and feel like plastic, but are biodegradable
  8. Do you know that you could book the kids in their own cabin? As long as they are next to or across from you it is allowed. We have done this multiple times with our kids starting when they were 14 and 12.
  9. On our last cruise in June they didn’t open until about 50 days before. We sail at the end of October and received the email last week.
  10. Having recently been in Retreat on Silhouette, we dined in Luminae almost every night (we had 2 specialty nights). We did order off the MDR menu a couple of times. My husband loves the jerk chicken from the MDR and he also eats escargot every night. We always had the same servers whether it lunch or dinner. We weren’t always at the same table, but in the same section, I’m not much of a red meat eater, but the burger for lunch was wonderful. Also enjoyed the lobster roll on embarkation day and the last sea day. I have to eat gluten free and was always offered anything I wanted, although I didn’t want them to do anything special, so mostly stuck with the menu. I did have a salad at lunch a couple of times and added grilled chicken without any issue. The server actually asked me if I wanted it. Have a great cruise!
  11. Being a very frequent visitor to Aruba (our family owns a timeshare and house there), if I had to choose between them I would choose the Jeep tour. Locals frown heavily on the ATV/UTV tours, as it damages the ecosystem, and as fun as they can be…..and very dusty…..I would never do it. Actually, there are talks that the UTV/ATVs will be banned, which could happen in the near future. Instead of either of these, I would highly recommend Trikes Aruba. They drive on the road and don’t do damage. You can drive them on your own if you want, but you don’t have to. Very fun time. We loved it! Have a blast while there!
  12. I check in on the app to get our boarding time and then the website at a later time to finish it. I upload a picture instead of taking one so that can only be done on the website
  13. Are they 2 different class ships? Is the first an E class ship?
  14. Yes they are. Celebrity has Select dining (which some call anytime) and Traditional dining, which is a set time
  15. Anytime and select dining are the same thing
  16. We just recently sailed with Eddy. What a nice guy…..and he loved the bag of Doritos I brought him 😂
  17. We are on this cruise as well. We booked an aft suite so we should be good either way 😂
  18. We love the WB TA’s. Sailing one in October. It was originally full, but now that final payment is upon us, more cabins are opening up. We have always experienced very few to no kids and the kids that were on board were toddlers
  19. I’m having the same issue as the OP. I tried your suggestion, but this picture doesn’t even show up on my reservation. Who knows. Guess I will have to contact Celebrity
  20. So you are looking for connecting cabins? Either both inside or both OV?……or just which have the doors next to each other? If that’s the case I don’t think there is any way of knowing
  21. We absolutely love them! Have one booked on Ascent for the TA in October.
  22. We like port side because we like the sun. We are in a SV for our upcoming TA so we will experience both sun and shade…..or neither 😂
  23. We are doing the same cruise. I didn’t even think of reasoning you gave. Good to know. Fortunately we are in an aft SS so we should be good 😂
  24. Never this, but last year on our cruise we celebrated our 30th anniversary on board. We were entering Blu and the Maitre D pulled us aside and told us that the Captain wanted to treat us to dinner in Tuscan that night. Not only did he treat us to dinner, but he and the Hotel Director personally delivered us a cake and we were also given a bottle of wine and chocolate covered strawberries. So nice! Something we will always remember
