Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Oh. The dreadful shower curtain. I wish they had changed to shower.shower doors on refit.
  2. So happy she's all set for next cruise. Bon Voyage!
  3. QM2 is out on open waters for dea trials. Looks like she will be ready for next cruise.
  4. Please post some pictures and thoughts on the refit when you're on QM2. Thanks.
  5. We're spoiled because we had 6 wonderful cruises on QM2 during her first 8 years at sea when she was at her most glorious, elegance and exceptional quality of service and food in MDR and buffet. We were shocked at the changes on our July 2022 cruise. Service and food definately not up to QM2 old standards. But we feel the same has changed on other cruise lines we've been sailing on since 2010, except for Celebrity which has maintained excellence in service and food for our cruises since 2010. We've been sailing on the Celebrity Summit out of Bayonne because we found same quality as QM2 for less money (meaning more cruises for us) and the convenience of sailing out of Bayonne as we only live 45 minutes from that port. We love the QM2 but sad of her decline. Guests who sailed on her in her glory days notice it the most. We read about the refit so we've tentatively booked for November 2024 because we love going to the Caribbean on the QM2 and hoping that the reviews will show that service and food have improved, in addition to getting that awful rust off the balconies and elsewhere. Also from reviews and our experience, too, embarkation out of Red Hook Brooklyn has been disastrous since 2019. Seems to be the only port with hours of waiting to board with nowhere to sit and people passing out from standing so long. Still, the QM2 is a beautiful and unique ocean liner and would hope many will enjoy having a chance to sail on her.
  6. We can only hope. We've been spoiled by glass doors on other cruise ships and hope they will install them on QM2 this refit so have them for our cruise on her in 2024.
  7. At first only my husband's received the PUP emails. Now we both get them. He has 60 more points than I but fortunately we're both Elite.
  8. Even though we didn't participate in a few PUP points activities in the past 2 years, the PUPs we did earn helped us reach Elite for our cruise this May. We're thankful for that. We're really happy that Celebrity started this PUP program.
  9. Hopefully they will be taking care of a lot of rust we noticed on our July cruise last year. I realize that the salt water causes this rust on the balconies, railings, etc. but of our 6 cruises, this was the first time we ever saw it that bad. Would love it if they got rid of the cloth shower curtains but not hopeful.
  10. Not sure if they have bar service there but you're just one flight up from the Sunset Bar (you can use the stairs to the bar that are at the rear of the rooftop deck, starboard side).
  11. I read on some posts on another website that Celebrity has not been serving Beef Wellington. Some say that beef choices have been cut back on the menus. This in addition to paying extra now for a second lobster tail is really getting annoying. Anyone else experiencing these types of food shortgages/less choices on Celebrity? We're on Celebrity Summit in 4 months and hope that this is not the case then. This is our 7th Celebrity cruise and will be disappointed if they are not up to their usual standards.
  12. Thanks for posting link. For some reason, I didn't get an email for this one. I just watched it so hope I'll see the PUP points next month,
  13. I heard there might be a December 15th release date for 2024 & 2025 cruises. Thanks for checking.
  14. Just saw you are back on board! Glad to hear you're doing well and hope you both have a great time on this cruise. We've been on the Silhouette. Lovely ship but we still like M-Class better. Heard that they're moving the Summit from Miami to Alaska in Spring 2024 and sailing an S-Class ship from Cape Liberty! If you have time, could you please check if Celebrity is planning any M-Class ships out of Cape Liberty in 2024 or 2025? Thanks so much. Looking forward to following your cruise. Your insights and photos are wonderful! Bon Voyage.
