Thanks We'll keep it in mind.. seems much less crowded that the last stop you made, where the umbrellas were tip to tip... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kteacher Posted April 19 Author #77 Share Posted April 19 Another reminder as we are almost at the end of the first leg- check your onboard account. We’ve asked twice to have an overcharge (turns out we were charged twice for the wine pairing for Le Petit Chef). The charge hasn’t been resolved and some strange charges showed up for Luminae today from breakfast (pancakes and yogurt with berries 🤷🏻♀️). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kteacher Posted April 19 Author #78 Share Posted April 19 My husband went down this time to try to get our account cleared up- apparently we were charged for bottled water and a cappuccino at breakfast in Luminae 🤷🏻♀️, and the double charge for a wine pairing is “under review” 🤷🏻♀️😐. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kteacher Posted April 20 Author #79 Share Posted April 20 Okay another mystery solved, and chalk up to glitch with Celebrity IT. We got signed up for a wine event for tomorrow that is not listed in the calendar, so weren’t even aware we were signed up 😂😄- The Luminae charges are still 😑🤷🏻♀️.

Rare Kteacher Posted April 20 Author #80 Share Posted April 20 Dinner in Luminae was much calmer last night, so calm that we ended up taking photos of my husband and the Maitre D’s shoes instead of the main course of cold poached lobster. Everything we had was very good. The restaurant was less than half full when we arrived just before 8. Dinner and shoe photos- 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Kteacher Posted April 20 Author #82 Share Posted April 20 Consecutive cruise meeting had helpful information for us as this is our first B2B, plus we won a bottle of wine 👍. We meet in Tuscan Grill tomorrow at 9:15 with all our documents. We were told consecutive cruise passengers will have access to the Concierge embarkation lunch listed 12:30-2:00. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Kteacher Posted April 20 Author #86 Share Posted April 20 Just finishing up the World Wine Tour in Cellar Masters. It wasn’t what we expected. I would compare it to drinking around the world in Epcot 🙃. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on a music charter had same issue in same suite , price was a little under 6k which I thought was a great price per person for a royal suite. Music charter gives us a veteran and a repeater discount which celebrity doesn’t. Edited April 21 by George C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Kteacher Posted April 21 Author #95 Share Posted April 21 As we get ready to switch over to the next leg I’m reflecting (see what I did there 😉) on the first part of the B2B. I would give embarkation an A+, our cabin, butler, and attendant an A+++, Luminae a high B+, specialty dining an A, entertainment and activities B+. One of the very few low points was the World Wine Tour which was like speed dating with wine. Looking forward to the next five days onboard. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to the next five days onboard. We’ve done the World Wine Tour before and I was very disappointed too. There were four stations with a wine steward at each who was in charge of describing five different wines to however many people were standing there at the time. A huge hassle, lots of work just to find out anything, and none of the wine was really good. IMHO they use this activity to get rid of wine that isn’t selling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted April 21 #98 Share Posted April 21 23 hours ago, Kteacher said: Here’s the information we received for consecutive cruisers and the Cellar Master schedule of events for this sailing- so other than the Martini Bar show, it looks all tastings now are extra charge? Liquor store used to have a few free tastings. Extra charge ones must be more in depth..but we would not pay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Kteacher Posted April 21 Author #100 Share Posted April 21 Super easy procedure for B2B. We were escorted out of Michael’s Club and waited about 5 minutes until customs was ready for us. After facial recognition we were given new sea pass cards, new photos when we dinged back onboard. We are in the same cabin again , CS on deck 11. We met our butler for a tour of the Reflection suite and Signature Suites. I’ll upload photos later. We’re currently enjoying a quiet pool, although a large group of TAs just passed through. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
