I have honestly never even noticed any pens or pencils in the rooms 🤣

We didn’t have one on Silhouette on our 30/09/23 sailing( we were in a balcony cabin.

No....Per pencil per person.

We had a butler that loved to give Celebrity pens on Beyond, along with Avian water!  I could drink water and doodle all day long.  I’m sure Celebrity found out about this and took all his pens away, curtailing his Avian business too.  Now, he is most likely a pencil pusher.😜

I don’t know… Avian water sounds kind of fowl to me.

Pens are now part of Celebrity's innovative "All Non-Inclusive Package."

we did, it was wrong. that is why we asked for an update, but thanks so much for your eloquent reply.

We had Avian water two weeks ago on the Equinox. I cannot believe I am saying this but it does taste better.

I love it! Except it isn’t funny.

 

I go on Dec. 22nd, but my friend goes on Dec. 10th. That’s probably after you are going?

It was too late for me to change, so I started all of this misspelling!🫠  Just don’t cut me off from my Evian, please!  “Avian" must be the generic!  No wonder I received so much from my butler...

I was on Connie last November out of Tampa. I pulled my daily programs. It opens at 3 pm on port days and 9 am for sea days. No one else answered.

I just got off this morning, looks like it opened 11 am on the sea day and 2pm on port days. 

As far as the pen, I didn't notice we even had one. But I had a good cruise, didn't suffer much from cutbacks.

[sasset]

I’m the op. Cruise has been hectic. I’ll add to my observations now. This was the status of our cabin upon arrival. All of these were addressed to our satisfaction, but much of it fell onto our cabin steward who had just joined the ship and had nothing to do with the cabin’s condition. Mold in the shower was gross. Quality control should never have let these issues degrade to where they were. We actually had a great cruise. MDR has added a “Chef’s Special” every night. Tuscan Grill, a disappointment in the past, was great.

Sasset, very glad you had a great cruise. Thx for letting us know that your issues were addressed, and I like that you gave a shout-out to your cabin steward.

No fair --- Carnival includes a free eraser.

 

The pencil in the OP picture is the one used at Trivia.  Don't let trivia players use an eraser!

We'll be onboard in three weeks.  The condition of the robes and fungus are totally beyond belief.

Could you tell us who the Captain, HD and CD are?

Sasset      what cabin were you in?

I recall those days too, of personalized stationary and envelopes on X.......but to paraphrase Don McLean's song........the day Covid shut the world down.....bye, bye, past cruise ship experiences...😂

[Ex-Airbalancer]

Last night they had prime rib on the menu , my wife said it was excellent 

our robes look fine but one size does not fit all 🤣

After a day , nothing to worry about
