t18c97 Posted March 19, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I had booked a CS as a guarantee and ended up being assigned a RS, sweet. Now I know if you did a Move Up upgrade you don't get any additional benefits that might come with the upgrade but how does it work with an upgrade on a guarantee booking? Will we get the two bottle of liquor, free premium dining, etc. or just what we would have gotten in the CS room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted March 19, 2022 #2 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Lucky you! Perks specific to the suite, however booked, come with the suite. So yes, you'll receive the benefits that you have mentioned and quite a bit more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted March 19, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I would think you will get the same benefits. The CS and RS have the same number of points per day and usually get the same perks. The amenities that come with the room e.g. free bar setup and laundry would also be included as the amenities of the room You will definitely get the free bottles of booze, unlimited specialty dining, and laundry. Even thous upgraded are given the amenities that come with the room 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were in a CS 2 weeks ago and the bar set up, bottles of booze, specialty dining and laundry were not amenities of the CS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct but I was saying that they get the same perks as their original booking but get the Amenities (Bar Setup, Laundry and Free Dining) with the RS. Didn't mea to insinuate you would get those amenities with a CS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I can think as is that it's a SEA and Land cruise and our first booking we had on Celebrity. Maybe they were trying to make a good impression?

Are you saying that your original CS GTY (that was upgraded to an RS) booking included the Premium Drink Package, Streaming Internet, gratuities and OBC when you originally booked it? Thanks.

Enjoy your R.S. I recommend that once you are contracted by the shoreside concierge that you make numerous Speciality dining reservations at your preferred times (although the M class does not have as many options). You can always modify them later. Do not forget that you have unlimited Gelato and speciality lunches are included. (If there are any) If the ship has the AP, you can use it to help select Speciality dining days. Sorry, I do not know must about the M class. Most of my experience is on the S Class and one Apex cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is what he just told us. I was originally thinking that since he had a GTY booking, he might not have the Indulge package. (But he had all those items with his original GTY CS booking) So his experience will not be applicable. I know that some people believe that the Premium Drink Package and Internet have been removed from the R.S. Standard amenities. (It was always previously included). The Gratuity and OBC were not originally standard amenities. (Without the 123 or BBB) I have yet to read a post where someone has stayed in an RS from an upgrade or Move Up bid who did not get the Premium Drink package. Of course many people have had that experience with suites below the RS level. Personally I cannot imagine someone staying in a R.S. would be given two full bottles of liquor, bar set ups, and unlimited beer, but not get the Premium Drink Package. It would not be the first time that Celebrity had conflicting information in various areas of their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casino, iLounge (IF they have stock) or plain old shopping. But Casino is the easiest to withdraw your OBC and even transform it into cash if you're willing to accept the risk of some breakage in the process.
