Hi! I've used UR Comped previously for comped sailings on Celebrity. My cabin mate and I both were provided a complementary classic beverage pack and basic internet. Now as UR Comped can no longer offer free drink package and wifi, I've booked directly through Blue Chip. I am currently Sapphire, earned approx 10k points last cruise. I can't get a straight answer out of Blue Chip.I know currently Sapphire members get a free classic beverage package and free wifi. Could anyone current Sapphire advise whether or not your cabin mate gets the complementary classic beverage as well? If not, does Celebrity force them to purchase one to get mine added on my account? Is there anyway to have added the classic drink package added pre board and take advantage of upgrade sales offered online? Thanks in advance! Hoping they won't pull the classic drinks from us Sapphire when the inevitable merger with Casino Royale happens. Janet

Thanks everyone. We will be traveling with water bottles. We will definitely try pouring water from cans into them to help clear the metallic flavor. Appreciate the tip!

We are excited to be sailing Aqua class on the Ascent December 23. First time in Aqua class and we are wondering if the daily water service is only the canned water provided in the classic beverage package? We have classic beverage and I do wish premium water was included. Just wondering if other options are included in the daily water service provided with Aqua class.

Thank you! Did the trick. We are diamond after our next cruise and we recently booked Celebrity- chaos for RoyaI IT-LOL.

Thank you all! Yes, I will call and speak to Celebrity agent when we return home from the Royal cruise. My info on Elite benefits are from the Celebrity website- so unsure what current situation is as Celebrity is on a chopping cycle it seems. From Celebrity website, it claims the following perks. We booked a classic drink package and internet when we booked last year. I was under- maybe false impression- we would be upgraded when we reached Diamond on Royal as it's equal to Elite on Celebrity? Elite Featured Benefits Access to exclusive daily coffee house-style breakfast and Evening Cocktail Hour 30% off Wi-Fi package or Wi-Fi upgrade 15% off Drink Package or upgrade to Premium pre-cruise Complimentary access to Persian Garden (on one port day) One complimentary bag of laundry (wash, dry, fold) on every sailing

We will be Diamond after our next cruise with Royal. We are trying Celebrity 7 days later. If I understand, Celebrity matches Royal Diamond at Elite. The perks are great as they will upgrade from classic beverage to premium beverage gratis. I read that it takes 10 days post sailing for status to take effect. Any advice to have this happen to use the match benefit with Celebrity? Should I work this with customer service with Royal or Celebrity? Thanks for thoughts and advice.

Thanks, but we're flying into HOU. Appreciate the info! "Hi! We are on Allure in March and we have never been to Texas. Interested in opinions on hotels near terminal vs HOU airport."

Hi! We are on Allure in March and we have never been to Texas. Interested in opinions on hotels near terminal vs HOU airport. Only staying 1 night pre cruise so looking for place that is convenient with a decent restaurant- preferably local. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for posting! On Harmony this Saturday, same itinerary. Expected to be a full cruise. The more the merrier 😍
