RedneckBob Posted November 19, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 19, 2022 (edited) One day to go and another cruise will be over. This will be a short review, I hope. The Beyond is a beautiful ship. Is that short enough 😀. There are 2800 passengers and the ship does fill crowded at all. Never an issue getting lounge chairs on open decks, seats at Oceanview Cafe; only thing you need to do is book reservations for dining at least three months ahead of time to get the time you want. Seemed that everything was booked until 9 pm once you boarded the ship. Service was hit and miss along with food. Training staff continues. Issues with communciations with wait staff leading to wrong drinks and food ordered. Some days food was excellent, some days poor quality. Entertainment was excellent. One nite at the beginning of singers and dancers show, Element, one of the performers was hurt. Screams were chilling but was told the performer was ok. Show was stopped. Only other major issue was elevators. For a new ship the elevator performance was terrible. Several times taken to wrong floor or no floor at all. Then one nite at 12:53 am in the morning at most all cabins, all lights came on, tv came on and the motorized blinds raised. Told it was a computer issue that had happened before. I would rate overall cruise experience at 7.2365 out of 10.0000. On a lighter side, yesterday saw a passenger wearing a t shirt that said on front of shirt, “Adventure Before Dementia”. I went up to the passenger and said that was a good t shirt but I could not remember my last adventure. 😳 RNB out.

Rare GoldenZoo Posted November 19, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 19, 2022 We will be on Beyond in 3 weeks. When you board Beyond, where do you come onto the ship? We were confirmed for late dining but have seen on this board that we actually have to make reservations for the MDR. If you did this was it done at the restaurants when you boarded or do you have to call the dining extension noted in the app? Thanks in advance.

YensidCA Posted November 19, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 19, 2022 I wonder if you happen to capture any pictures of the daily planners that you could share. Would love to see what's in store for me soon. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made all our dining reservations on Celebrity website months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Told it was a computer issue that had happened before. I totally forgot about this. I think that was Monday night? Originally my husband thought I had done it, and I thought he had. Led to much discussion. He went back to sleep. I was then awake so I went downstairs to have a cigarette. Older gentleman arrived later and said same happened to his cabin so it was then I knew I wasn’t losing my mind. Was so weird. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a IT issue. After I woke up I began checking for hidden cameras 🥸 and then wondered if the IT guy had been escorted from the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a friendly nudge in case you forgot about posting the Daily Planners (I understand that life takes precedence). I'm on the same itinerary so I would like to see them.

You may need to give me a friendly bull dozer nudge to get me motivated especially after what I just ate 😳. Will deliver this PM. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedneckBob Posted November 22, 2022 Author #10 Share Posted November 22, 2022 As posted on another thread, the elevators were so bad on the Beyond, “How bad was it RedneckBob?, It was so bad that Celebrity should have offered frequent flyer miles for the miles I traveled on the elevator. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
