SarahBDS Posted April 17, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Hello, I am new to cruising with Celebrity. On the app the last 5 days of our Cruise on beyond say Venue Closed at all the specialty restaurants . Anyone have any idea why? Are they really closed?

Rare PTC DAWG Posted April 17, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I seriously doubt that is accurate. How far out is your cruise? The app is usually more accurate the closer you are to the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted April 17, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) How long is your cruise? I think I have read that the longer cruises do not list all of the days… I see that your cruise is 12 nights. I think I read the app only has a 7 day cycle so may not list the last five days initially…. EM Edited April 17, 2023 by Essiesmom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted April 17, 2023 #5 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Our ship sails on Friday and the menu's end at day 7 of the 15 day cruise. What I am hearing is that they really do not get updated until the day of the cruise. This makes it difficult to plan any specialty restaurants since we cannot see the menu in order to determine what nights we want to skip. My only recommendations is to see if any cruises happening this week have the same itinerary and look at those menu's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted April 17, 2023 #6 Share Posted April 17, 2023 (edited) For my upcoming cruise they are telling me that the main dining room venue is closed. We all know that isn’t the case. The information simply has not been loaded into the app and they mean that the venue you are interested in is closed to bookings right now, not closed completely Edited April 17, 2023 by cruisestitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted April 17, 2023 #7 Share Posted April 17, 2023 We have a 10N cruise coming up and the app only shows menus for 4 nights because the sailing recently have been 4 and 5 nights. We were however able to make dinner reservations on the website. The same occurred with our fall TA where only menus for 7 days were showing. The full menu showed about a week before sailing.

Rare markeb Posted April 17, 2023 #8 Share Posted April 17, 2023 This seems to be another consistent inconsistency. I just looked out of curiosity, and our 10N in November on Equinox has different menus (Luminae) for the 10 nights. I just looked and Equinox is doing the 10 night Southern Caribbean starting this weekend. Not sure what they're on right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted April 17, 2023 #9 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I agree that the app is very often not updated until right before the cruise, and often not fully updated until mid-cruise. That said, I did a sailing once on Reflection where there was a very large business group onboard and they completely booked all the specialty restaurants on multiple days (not to mention gathered in the bars so you could rarely find a seat). Really ticked me off! so it can happen, but it is not common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremiah1212 Posted April 17, 2023 #10 Share Posted April 17, 2023 It's just quirky because of the sailing dates. You're the second cruise after the TA which is followed by an 8 day, then an 12 day, then a 9 day before getting into the normal 10 and 11 day rotation. I would bet all of the menus for those for 3 cruises after the TA are not completely firmed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arizona Wildcat Posted April 17, 2023 #11 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Obviously no. Almost meaningless to use the app much prior to boarding. No menus showing for cruise next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare abbydancer2003 Posted April 17, 2023 #12 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Our cruise leaves in 9 days. According to the app, no food venues are open past day 5. As been said, the app isn't accurate until pretty much sailing day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 1025cruise Posted April 17, 2023 #13 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I would not trust the app until you are on the ship connected to ship's wifi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahBDS Posted April 17, 2023 Author #14 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Thank you so much everyone for your kind replies. It does make it difficult to plan... I am easy but I am travelling with others so I wanted to make sure I made choices they would like. Thanks again for taking the time to answer 😊🙏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
