Why would lounger be OK on one class of ship and not on the other? Safety? SMH, OMG, LOL

Very happy for you! You really got a deal! Happy Cruising!

Yes, that is why I asked the question.

When did you buy your cruise, when does it sail? The current All Inclusive does not include tips. Are TAs giving tips as a bonus? Happy Cruising!

Why are the lounges a safety hazard? Just read a Beyond Review where the individual requested a lounger and got one.

Just checked my Beyond cruise July 2024. Here are the prices. Why the big difference? Buyer Beware!

FYI - we cruise CELEBRITY, MSC, NCL, PRINCESS & RCI each year. We are fortunate to be able to do so. Celebrity is totally reducing perks & at the same time increasing prices. We have Beyond B2B this year and Equinox TA next year. So, we like some things and don't spend money on overpriced items. Celebrity can't even keep their Bar Menus in sync. What does IT do? LOL HAPPY CRUISING!

I fully agree with your posting.Celebrity is totally overpriced on their drinks. Overpriced on their Specialty Restaurants, too. Yes, people who cruise other lines see the differences. Any business will charge what people will be willing to pay. How many people really care what the price is when they are in vacation? That is a reason some will pay and others will not. We have choices and our money talks. No one forces us to pay or buy anything! So, it is your choice and mine. Happy Cruising!

Have u crossed other Celebrity ships? Happy Cruising!

So, with all these opinions and experiences, who do you agree with? What will you do? I personally believe Celebrity is totally overpriced for their SRs. Service & food is good. Not 4 star like it used to be. JMHO! HAPPY CRUISING!

What ship were you on? What was wrong with the breakfast & lunch buffet? TIA

For our X TA Equinox 2025 14 Day OV is $3,300 total. P pkg @ $65x2x14 = $1,820 P pkg @ $100x2x14 = $2,400 Go figure!

Agree. On our B2B we will bring wine and use our Elite+ HH drinks. I believe that Celebrity is the most expense Mass Market cruise line for drinks, Specialty Restaurants, etc. JMHO!

OMG! I didn't even think of that. $3x20% = .60. That is $3.60 per drink. A drink pkg is almost as expensive as a 7 day cruise.

So, the prices on some of these items went up $3. Examples: Tito's 9 to 12 Gray Goose 12 to 15. 33% increase.

Thanks for your response! To me that is a very big short coming on any Companies IT Department. I wonder what would happen if you are on the ship and opened the app and the price shown was $9. Of course they would still charge you $12. Happy Cruising!

Going on Beyond soon. Looking at the various bar menus. Why are there different prices for the same brand in the bars. Example - Tito Vodka Martini Bar $9 The Club Bar $12 Other examples on wine, too. Anyone know why? TIA

You are totally correct! Happy Cruising!

I am just in reverse! Princess over Celebrity. Yes, we also have 2 each. Beyond B2B and Sun B2B this year. Happy Cruising!

Got my popcorn. Go for it! LOL

OMG! I never said all! I said most! Diamond on MSC and if you are not in the Yacht Club drink service is very slow. Been Cruising MSC since 2009.

I believe the reduction of space in the OL began with the Prima. The Viva is also the same as the Prima. NCL uses the OL for many functions and restricts passenger usage during all times.

This happens on almost all cruise lines today. Staff have been cut back. People disregard times, too. Happy Cruising on any Cruise Line!

Why not be more explicit on your positives? 'Extremely upscale, modern ship design with good food, drinks, and service.' TIA
