oldmancurtis Posted June 13, 2023 #1 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I understand that the drinks are free in elite lounge, but can you get the drinks else where in the time frame? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanaPam00 Posted June 13, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 13, 2023 There is no Elite louge - the drinks are available at several (but not all) bars around the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestLakeGirl Posted June 13, 2023 #3 Share Posted June 13, 2023 There is no elite lounge. From 5 to 7 PM every night except embarkation night (and perhaps one other if there is a special event party) you can order drinks from the Captain’s Club menu at nearly every bar. Not restaurants, just bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted June 13, 2023 #4 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I believe this menu is the current one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted June 13, 2023 #6 Share Posted June 13, 2023 You won’t find a bar called “sports bar” on Celebrity. There might be a place with several tv’s, like Craft Social, but they don’t refer to it as a sports bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Airbalancer Posted June 13, 2023 #7 Share Posted June 13, 2023 On our Reflection TA they had Sky lounge set up for Elite Happy Hour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted June 13, 2023 #8 Share Posted June 13, 2023 But surely not only the Sky Lounge? The drinks were available at the other bars, too? so what was special about the Sky Lounge? in the past, when it was used for the Elite Happy Hour there were four things that made it so: 1. Greeter at the door, usually the Captains Club host/hostess 2, access restricted to Elite members and above 3. passed pre-dinner snacks 4.dress code (no shorts) did the reinstate these?

39august Posted June 13, 2023 #10 Share Posted June 13, 2023 This was a special event for Elite and above pax in Sky Lounge. This is held usually only once or twice a cruise between 5-7. Thankfully, other nights at that time the Sky Lounge is open to all, no dress code and no appetizers. Even tho' we have recently been in suites, we prefer the Sky Lounge for our before dinner drinks.

Rare cruisestitch Posted June 14, 2023 #17 Share Posted June 14, 2023 There are usually two different events …. The Captains Club Celebration, where the top cruiser is recognized, and the Senior Officers Party, where the senior officers are introduced. Those who are invited will see the time and date on the Captains Club instructions left in their state room on boarding day. Technically, the second one is not a Captains Club event, although it may be organized by the Captains Club concierge or another member of the concierge staff. Attendance is not limited to Captains Club members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted June 14, 2023 #18 Share Posted June 14, 2023 On the Apex the first party was the CC welcome event. Mid morning, open to all CC members. Sparkling wine, mimosas and OJ. No snacks. The second was the CC Elite Senior Officers Party. Early evening. Elite and above only. Snacks and a variety of drinks. Top cruisers and new Zenith members recognized.

They will not mix other cocktails, but you can usually get straight shots of the top-shelf brands they stock.

When I asked if they had anything like the mango one but not mango he made me a special orange one…I guess it depends how busy they are… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do carry some extra items to cover the cocktails in So5 which can help. Edited June 17, 2023 by Mark_T 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
