Reflection Aqua class?

[39august]

Are there more Aqua class cabins on Reflection than the other S class ships, please? I know there are a lot more suites.

According to this 2017 Celebrity flyer, the answer is yes but just barely compared to Solstice itself.  Obviously this chart reflects the cabin count before the upcoming recategorization and any changes from the Revolution makeover.

Thanks for this reply. We did Aqua on RF in Jan. 2020 and didn't see too much crowding in Blu. So I guess the extra 20 cabins didn't have too much affect. May try it again.

We’re on the Reflection in Aqua 1/8/23, and were in February 2020, so we’ll see if there are any changes in Blu.

Please post any changes for us. Thanks in advance.

In Blu there is one extra table in the rows by the windows.   The tables are so close that there is only enough space to change the table cloths.  
 

Some servers will treat the diners as if they are sitting at the same table when going over the menu.   They will also reach over your shoulder to serve the person on the other side instead of walking around because of the distance , especially if you are sitting closer to the windows.  
 

Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

We are on starting the 4th. We have done RF only in Aqua because it has cabins that aren't under the pool deck. With the additional deck the Aqua cabins are mostly on deck 11. We eat early and have never experienced any crowding issues. Any thing in particular you want me to check out?

Yes, can you still order from the MDR menu, please?

Will let you know, hope they haven't changed that.

 On a side note...have you enjoyed the change to X? We are also Pin's but decided to make the switch a few years ago. Just did a quickie on SR, really like the Radiance class. Freedom class and up is just to big.

After our first X cruise Dec. '17, we have never gone back to RCI. Just so much better for us on X.

This has been our experience.  There is one extra table in the rows by the windows.  The servers reach over as there is no room.  It is very crowded --but conducive if you wish to converse with those on either side of you.  We have found Blu to be busier than Aqua on other S-class ships.

We ate in Blu tonight. My wife asked for and ordered from the MDR menu. A side note....I have always ordered the filet the first night, one of the best steaks in any restaurant. They no longer have that on the Blu menu. I asked if the still had the small filet on the kids menu and they do. Was as good as ever. It was packed with tables pushed together even at 5:30.
