SandG Posted January 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2014 As you can see from my signature, we did a few Celebrity cruises in the past and loved them, and the last one was in the summer of 2009 on the Solstice, which was relatively new at the time. Since then, we've cruised with Royal Caribbean and Princess, due to convenience, constraints on sailing dates or destinations. We are cruising on the Solstice again in a few months, nearly 5 years after we cruised on her last. I thought I'd throw out the question of what will I find new since last time? (I know one answer is the anytime dining and we will take advantage of that. Another is the drink package, and we figured we won't drink enough to make that worthwhile.) What else has changed in 5 years (either with the ship or the cruise line)? Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Lots of things, drink packages, specialty dining packages, dress code, smoking now eliminated in all indoor locations, five years ago there were still a couple of places you could smoke indoors.

BBsails Posted January 11, 2014 #4 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Those yummy individually-wrapped little mints that used to be in bowls on the way out of the MDR are gone. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
