Oneluckywoman Posted December 29, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Hello Celebrity cruisers, It used to be allowed, under the previous Captain's club rules, that I could bring my cabin mate with me to the evening cocktail event, as long as they were traveling with me in my stateroom. I am married but sometimes cruise with my Mom or other ladies. If anyone knows the answer to this I would really appreciate the info! Thanks!

Oneluckywoman Posted December 29, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I hate to hear that. RCL checks both too, so I always loved cruising Celebrity when I wasn't cruising with my husband because they allowed your cabin mate to join you for the event. It was really a nice perk. No fun to go alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

losumi Posted December 29, 2013 #5 Share Posted December 29, 2013 My suggestion is to go to Captains Club on the celebrity site and ask the question. You will then get a definitive answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cle-guy Posted December 29, 2013 #6 Share Posted December 29, 2013 (edited) I thought I read on my last sailing, you could bring a non-elite cabin mate to the event with you. Assume they sere checking cards to be sure the names matched the cabin numbers to validate the cabin mate is in the cabin, not another cabin. Actually, I just found my Captains club welcome letter from my Nov 30 Reflection sailing and it says in the "PLEASE NOTE" section: All Valued guest [sic] and their companions staying in the same suite/stateroom over 21 years old are welcome. Please refrain from inviting non-elite guests not staying in your stateroom, as they will be unable to enter Elite lounge/events.

excitedofharpenden Posted December 29, 2013 #7 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I'm pretty sure that a non-Elite cabin mate will get a plastic card invite to the Elite Lounge if they are sharing a cabin with an Elite member. If they are regulars there the CC Host, if he/she is at the door, will most probably recognise them after a day or two. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lsimon Posted December 29, 2013 #9 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Traveling companions over 21 staying in the same stateroom as the Elite member have always been welcomed on our past cruises. This has always been stated on the letter listing the Elite events left in our stateroom on embarkation day. Our most recent cruise was 9 months ago but I doubt it has changed since then.

This has always been stated on the letter listing the Elite events left in our stateroom on embarkation day. Our most recent cruise was 9 months ago but I doubt it has changed since then. Maybe they were just checking the cabin numbers....he just seemed to glance at the color of card. We only went once 10 minuets before it ended and they did refuse to serve two others who came in shortly after the cut off time. So be sure to beon time. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gran2five Posted December 29, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Our adult daughter travelled in the same cabin with us on our Bermuda cruise in June. She and my husband visited the CC Hostess during our first day at sea and she received a card indicating that she was with Elite passengers. It was very nice to have her join us for cocktail hour.

RAYSWIN Posted December 29, 2013 #12 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Just returned yesterday from Constellation. 100% your roommate at least 21 will be allowed. In your stateroom will be a letter explaining Elite perks where it states they are included. No worries-Celebrity comes through. Concierge will check that Elite is on at least one of your room keys. Enjoy!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TraceyP Posted December 30, 2013 #20 Share Posted December 30, 2013 We were on the Summit the week of Dec 14th. My husband (Select) received a folder in our cabin upon boarding with Select coupons and list of Select events. I (Elite) received a folder with Elite Coupons and list of Elite events. In addition, I had drink coupons in my folder for two persons (6 coupons per day total). One set of the coupons had my last name on them, and the other did not. And they all worked!

fleckle Posted December 30, 2013 #22 Share Posted December 30, 2013 So did you have coupons the whole week? There was no Elite Happy Hour lounge? When we were on the Summit, we received coupons for the whole week as well as having Michael's Club available as the Elite Happy Hour lounge. Michael's Club was not crowded because the Elite passengers were pretty well spread out since the coupons could be used at other bars on the ship. It was a very nice arrangement, the ideal way to do it, we thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbenboys Posted December 31, 2013 #24 Share Posted December 31, 2013 What you need to do is. The 2 of you go down to the Captains Club desk. Show them your card and ask to have your friends card changed to show your level. As you might know while walking in the event is not the time to handle this. The person at the door is only looking for level of Captains Club. Have their sign a sail card changed. They will make the new card right there at the Captains Club desk. I've only done this once and all went smooth. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena7seas Posted March 15, 2014 #25 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Does anyone know if a non-Elite Plus Captain's Club member would get the complimentary coffees and teas from Café al Bacio if they were staying in the same cabin as an Elite Plus member? Would they get the invitations to events such as the Elegant Tea? I know they don't get Elite Plus coupons, but was wondering if they would get complimentary access to the type of amenities/experiences that couples usually share?
