Benefits for Elite members

[lawk]

Are any the same as you get in a concierge class cabin?

[Fblack]

Elite members get extra perks over and above those in concierge class cabins.

[lawk]

it's worthwhile to get concierge class or there's a duplication of benefits.

[Smoke Fan]

One has nothing to do with the other. You get Concierge Class benefits regardless of what your Captain's Club level is. You get Elite benefits regardless of what type cabin you book.

Do Elite and Concierge both get fresh flowers? Do they both get priority emparkation/debarkation?

[cruiseinfoseeker]

Lawk wants to know if he/she should bother spending the extra money on Concierge class room if Elite gives ALL the concierge perks (as well as more).

 

But I've never sailed Celebrity and I am not going concierge and I am not elite.

 

So what do I know????

The benefits are not the same. While they may overlap, concierge class gets more benefits than elite CC members... such as , welcome champagne, afternoon snacks, flowers, nice bag for shore excursions, along with better bedding, better sheets and nicer shower heads.

Also, on most ships, the CC staterooms are slightly larger.

 

The elite benefits have to do with priority embarkation and disembarkation. These amentites are also extended to CC and above guests. As elite, I would opt for CC class unless it is hundreds of dollars more.

IMHO, the fresh flowers are no big thing--it's not like you get a huge bouquet or anything. As for priority embarkation/disembarkation, there are so many elite members now, that it's not that much of a perk. The Elite meet in Michael's Club or the specialty restaurant for disembarkation, but the CC passengers do not. Elite get invitations to a special cocktail party, tours of the galley and backstage of the theater and a booklet with coupons for different things on the ship.

As Elite members we have been to free wine tasting, special cocktails with the staff officers, free extra ship tours, and 3 times invited to eat with the Captain.
