Is it awesome or does it feel kind of kill the atmosphere? Just want to know how different the experience feels. Thanks. The Martini Bar is still the place to be! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm semi-retired and DH will semi-retire shortly before our October cruise😊 We have mostly sailed in Veranda & Concierge cabins, along with two suites (one way back before Luminae existed). Our second suite was just before shutdown. We made our Equinox booking aboard that cruise. Compared to current prices, we got a fabulous deal on a corner aft SS, so we'd definitely hate to give it up. We can only hope capacity will still be controlled in December😉 We had a SS booked on Edge for last May, on which we planned to celebrate our 30th anniversary in the Greek Isles. We had made final payment before the shutdown. We used the FCC from that cruise to book a similar SS on our October Edge cruise, on which we'll have our belated 30th anniversary celebration. Next year we have four Veranda cabins booked (mostly Sunset Verandas). That said, should we love our suites, it's possible we may upgrade. Don't tell DH I said that😂 We lost my beloved mother to an unexpected medical issue when she was only 60, and this week we mourn my BIL, who succumbed to a dreadful movement disorder at 60. We have had ample evidence that we shouldn't wait for some magical "perfect" time to follow our dreams. We fully intend to make final payment if we see no evidence of another shutdown. Good for you and hope that you have a FANTASTIC cruise!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have access to the Celebrity App you can view the Room Service menu along with other menus. On the App bring up the current Equinox sailing and click on Dining. Scroll across the top to the Loyalty and Suites tab and then look on the left for Room Service Suites. Both Breakfast and All Day Dining are listed.

LisaDee Posted August 29, 2021 #108 Share Posted August 29, 2021 @RICCruisers thanks! I didn’t realize I could look up sailings I’m not on.

I saw you are on Edge in October. We recently booked the 10/16 Edge cruise. Will we see you onboard? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare terrydtx Posted August 29, 2021 #113 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Last night because it was our 50th anniversary, when we came back from Dinner our room steward and Retreat Host had decorated our cabin.

Rare terrydtx Posted August 29, 2021 #114 Share Posted August 29, 2021 We did lunch today in Sushi on 5. Great service and food. My wife a non sushi lover found plenty of non sushi to eat. Another nice wine and Sake by the glass menu that is not in the Celebrity app. Everything under $15 is covered by PDP. i can rrecommend the Dassai Sake, it was delicious 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, we are on the 10/30 sailing so we’ll miss you unless I can persuade DH to tack on a couple more for a B3B 😀. We just booked recently as well, I wasn’t planning on cruising that month (we have other land trips already booked plus a Dec cruise which would have been our first one since Dec 2019) but after reading all the trip reports and live reviews I just couldn’t wait any longer and added this one to our schedule. The prices in Oct seem reasonable, they tick up afterwards. And with the lower capacity they’re currently sailing at I think this will most likely be our best cruise ever. Enjoy! I’ll look forward to reading about your experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do not like crowds and waiting in lines which is why we never sail in the mega ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have both a free and members only log. I signed up years ago and got a lifetime membership for about $10.00 Now they charge 8.99 for one year or 14.99 for 3 years. They also pay 50 cents per stateroom picture or 25 cents for other pictures. The show all the deckplans for most cruise lines and then if there are pictures or movies they have a symbol on the cabin.

If you could, would you be kind enough to take an OUTSIDE photo of the cabin? I can not find any online pics. Thanks! We were moved from deck 6 to this cabin last week. We haven't seen any pictures of the cabin either, but looks like it has a nice size balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveling with friends, probably going with the speciality dining package for all 9 nights. Any pic you could provide of Martin Bar or World class bar would be appreciated, my 2 favorite night time hangouts while during daylight hours I hang at Cafe Al Bacio. 61 days for me and counting. I would have liked to sail sooner, but still recovering from my hip replacement.Tomorrow will be the first day I drive to PT since my surgery , watch out all you drivers on 101,ha ha.
