Either those we knew b-4 ,or those we met. "Those we met " include special bonds with some of the staff--particularly in the dining room and captains club. Nice that you feel it is special. But why do you care if we don't have vibes or want to do the same things you do? Not to be rude, but I don't care if you have a special bond with the some of the staff.😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have always found it just like home. The Silhouette has the same sort of feel to it but we didn't find that on the Reflection. I think the extra floor of rooms don't help and the fact that they were building Luminae while we were on also added to that feeling. We have not tried the Equinox but have 2 cruises booked on it in 2021 and I expect it to feel much like the Eclipse and the Silhouette. We did 5 of those Eclipse cruises between November 2012 and February 2014 and it did feel strange going on to the Silhouette in the March of that year. We were in AQ for all these cruises and to sit in Blu on the Silhouette and not have all your favourite waiters around you was very strange but it didn't take long to get used to it. I have to agree about Reflection; out of all the S class ships, she is our least favourite - too overcrowded. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citymom92 Posted May 15, 2019 #305 Share Posted May 15, 2019 (edited) I know I saw pics/renderings of the potentially (?) refreshed cabins for Equinox, and I am wondering if all cabins will get the new bedding, carpet, furniture? Or if it's just the suites that are getting any update. Can anyone repost the photos? We're in a balcony cabin next to the hump in July. Thanks for any info!

One from March and an amended version from early May. The May document definitely removed the mention of bathrooms getting a refresh on Equinox.... March - original.pdf 203.01 kB · 25 downloads May - updated.pdf 162.43 kB · 123 downloads With Silhouette next on the schedule (Jan 2020) after Equinox, would the first "March" document represent what will be expected for that "revolution"? Or will Celebrity be issuing an updated document for that one? And how do they make that available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect Silhouette to be more in line with the initial March document since that was the original plan. The M and S class ships are currently pretty consistent. I think Equinox will be the odd man out for a while until they have a chance to complete the rest of the updates. We’re on the second post-Revolution cruise on the Silhouette so I’m eager to see what unfolds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on the third post-Revolution Silhouette cruise (Feb 23), so I'll be interested to hear what the final plan becomes as the dry dock date gets closer.

Someone posted a licve chat they had with Celebrity and it looks like the bathrooms are getting redone. side note...Someone does need to merge the multiple threads on this topic. Holy cow, ,where on earth do you find a live chat feature?!? I have a couple questions that I would like to get a straight answer from Celebrity themselves and a Live chat would be perfect.

The live chat is available on select pages when browsing www.celebrity.com , it appears in the bottom right corner. However, if you use any type of ad-blocker in your browser, the chat box may not appear. Generally, it seems to be the easiest to find the chat box when browsing the available itineraries/indivdual cruises, but it seems that even then you cannot count on it popping up.

I read the extensive/whole chat between Luke and Ashley from Celebrity on Equinox facebook page. I feel more confident that the cabin and several refurbs will be done. Hope so. Although prior to drydock Equinox looked great was really looking forward to the changes for our October sailing. Been on Eclipse and Solstice and had great experiences in past.

I just got the numbers from the Revolution pdf above ADDITIONAL STATEROOMS – 13 Veranda, 7 Oceanview, 10 Inside There is a dot in the Millennium and Summit columns but nothing in the Equinox column. There are an awful lot of dots missing in the Equinox column...... so I guess she will have to have Dry Dock 2.1....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less "public" space and more people is never a positive on a cruise. Feels more crowded in various places...pools, dining solarium, thermal suite, bars etc. Also agree threads could be combined and the personal sniping posts removed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the March document it looks like Equinox was to have 14 rooms added before the accident in Grand Bahama. 5 signature, 1 reflection and 8 inside.
