Logo gift because of fuel surcharge

[Lynn427]

Celebrity said that because they added the fuel surcharge, each stateroom would receive 'one logo item'. Anyone that has sailed after February 1st should have received one. What is it and when did you get it?

 

I posted the same question on the Royal Caribbean boards and they received a cook book. I was wondering if Celebrity is giving the same thing.

We were on the Radiance of the Seas from February 2-10; and, we did not receive a cook book. However, we were not required to pay the surcharge, which might explain the lack of a cookbook. Anyhoo, who needs another cook book.

Someone posted a link to a Celebrity article that said everyone who had booked prior to November 16th and then still paid for their cruise in full would get a free logo'd item. Can't remember when it said that would start though.

I sail on Friday 2/29 for 10 days on Constellation. Will get back to you on this question of logo gift!

Just had friends get back from Galaxy on Feb. 15 and they received a free bottle of water with a fanny pack holder for the water.

Is it like the water bottle holder on the Royal Caribbean Gifts and Gear?

We wore this topic out last week. My gift on 2/9 Century was a picnic blanket. Can you say regift?

We were on the Summit 2/9 - 2/16 cruise and got a picnic blanket.

We just got back from the Empress we recieved a cook book it was not worth the extra weight in the suitcase so we left it there.

We were on Constellation Feb 8-18. We got a picnic blanket. Not bad, we live in a beach area, so we will definately get some use out of it. Plus, going to the kids' baseball games...very usefull for our family.

Just off the summit. yes a picnic blanket. left it in the cabin.

We were on the Connie, 2-08. We also got the beach blanket, however I am not really sure it can be called that. On one side it is a felt like material, and on the other side it is a black vinal material.

It could also be a type of luggage blanket that you put on the bed under your suitcase.

Anyway, we did not have room for it and left it.

It will be interesting to see if we get a "gift" in May. As many people will be annoyed getting on the ship as it doesn't even reach port for boarding until 7pm (at best). They will need something else to placate pax!

2/18/08 Century received the blanket. I have not opened it up so do not know the size. Does anyone know how much this sold for?

We sailed 2/4 on Century and received a nice fanny pack.... Tan with blue logo.

It's vinyl on the one side so it will keep any moisture off of you. So if you go to the music in the park and sit on damp grass you will stay dry.:D

Just back (today) from the Millie 2/17 cruise. We got a small cloth tote bag... about the size of a 3-ring binder... it has a water bottle pocket on one end.

[momcuoz]

We completed the NZ and Australia cruise 2/03-2/18 on the Mercury and we received 2 water bottle insulated holders. We figure the value of these holders total $140.00. Such a deal?

Now this is exactly what I needed to find out. This will be the perfect blanket for my incontinent, 12 year old dog. We just refinished our floors, and the poor old boy is sick of wearing those pesky diapers. Anyone who wants to re-gift...send them my way...please!:D

[Lsimon]

Just curious - did you receive the items early, for use during cruise, or as a parting gift? A couple of the items mentioned might come in handy during the cruise.

[louanddave]

How about my money back?

 

Who wants a fanny pack?

 

This seems absurd?

Might have been the first night, but definitely by the second. At least that was my experience on a 5 nighter.

[ILVMM]

was the blanket (one side pleather and the other soft, plaid material. It folds/rolls up nicely.

 

Someone asked if we had to send it back since Royal Caribbean (and, thus, Celebrity) is refunding our fuel surcharges.

 

We were told we do not have to return it.

 

I kind of like it!

[Coastaljen]

Hmmmm... I think the blanket sounds kind of nice.

Who wants a "gift" that they don't really want? Why don't they just credit everyone's onboard account and let cruisers decide how they want to spend "their" money? Maybe I'd rather have a massage than a fanny pack!
