  1. Yes it was wonderful. I also wrote a review where I made an error by giving food a one star meant 5. The seafood extravaganza was wonderful just got off the ship 2 weeks ago. All the lobster crab claw meats and more you could eat. The ascent ship was great.i gave it five stars for everything cruising the way I remember back in the day

    eTicket is not a boarding pass per se, like other cruise lines, notably Disney. Yes, it has a barcode that helps at checkin, but it’s not essential. You will board the ship with your cruise card. What it does have that’s important are your luggage tags and your complete booking details. Always take a copy of your complete booking details to document your onboard credit and any pre-purchased excursions and special requests. So, yes try to download and print your eTicket.

    Thank you that is so helpful. We had fraudulent activity on our credit card they changed security code and I used this card to register. Will I be able to correct details at embarkation or on ship? I hate to hold on phone .and they say you will need to confirm credit card on ship. What do u think?

    Is my embarkation form the same as my boarding pass?  My e tickets arrived with health questionnaire, embarkation form and luggage tags.  No boarding pass

    Omg I had the same question.been on 50 cruises and I still wasn't sure if health questions needed to be filled out b 4 I went to terminal and also if this embarkation page is my set sail boarding pass.

    @the mistral wind Simplified:

     

    1. You can bring 2 bottles of wine per person (at most 4 per stateroom).

     

    2. No corkage fee if you drink in your staeroom. Get glasses from a bar or have your attendant bring them. They can take them away, too.

     

    3. No corkage fee if you pour your own in your room and take the glasses with you to dinner or anywhere else. They don't care in the dining rooms where you got the wine.

     

    4. Don't worry about doing it wrong. Just keep the bottle in your room and you will be like 1000 other people on board!

    Thank you kindly my husband will bring 2 750 ml and I will too. Thrilled about this. We will just consume in our stateroom. It will be on a long cruise 16 days so it will be nice to have our wine.

    Your questions have been answered, the policy/experiences is/are:

     

    two (2) bottles per person

     

    corkage fee: ANY passenger without an alcohol beverage package AND brings unopened bottles outside of their cabin, fee $25.00.

     

    You have received reliable information from all who have responded to your inquiry for clarification.

     

    Cheers and bon voyage

    so are you saying if they take the wine out of their cabin they are charged corkage fee. but no fee to consume 2 bottles in stateroom ? this is where i am confused?? i want to bring one bottle for me and one for husband to enjoy in cabin only on embarkation day??

    Hi All,
    There is a lot of confusion over Celebrity’s alcohol policy.  The website indicates that 2 bottles of wine per stateroom may be brought onboard at embarkation, while it states 2 bottles per adult in another place.  Has anyone tested 2 bottles per person yet?  There is also debate as to the corkage fee.  Does anyone have recent experience?  Is it still only charged in restaurants and lounges, or is it now charged at embarkation?  TIA.

    Abby

    thank you for asking this. I'm not dumb, but i am also confused. celebrity says you can bring 2 bottles per stateroom which i would love to do. i have no wine or drink program. i want to drink it in my cabin only. i will not take it anywhere else. does a corkage apply? i really don't want to pay 25.00 for my 10. bottle of wine. i really always bring 2 bottles on all my cruises  one for husband and one for me. but now there seems to be vague and conflicting information. please clarify this for me if you have cruised in march on celebrity and you brought wine aboard please let me know if you were charged corkage fee for one bottle in stateroom  only consumption. i know that if yu have a drink package you don't have restrictions.  of course that's one less drink you will consume lol.

  7. thank you, No it was a question i hoped someone could answer me. Not a joke question. I haven't been on cruise critic for a year or so. And haven't traveled for a while. I did see post about if pinnacle could go to Diamond lounge but I never saw my question. However; I am sure its somewhere on this site. I know some ships may not be having the diamond promo anymore. That's why I asked this question. And if they substitute a voucher program that's something at least. I would think by Dec. all should be vaccinated and it shouldn't be an issue anymore. I read that they updated the diamond lounge on the Vision and i wondering if they decided to do away with this perk all together. thank you for your replies. I certainly appreciate your time to post.

  8. Because of covvid 19 we haven't gone anywhere for a while. We are Diamond and planning a trip on the vision of the seas. Do they still have the Diamond lounge in 2021 dec.? We love those perks and yes it is a deciding factor for us to book this ship. Thank You for your replies.

  9. We had a fun time on the miracle. And i did write a review . i had a couple things that were less then perfect. But over all we had a fun time. the comedy shows were wonderful. i didn't really miss guys burgers because they had another burger bar that was just fine. I wish they would have had more movie time. But i guess they had to utilize the space for other events.we were never bored. Hope your vacation is great whatever you decide. i would book this cruise again. The late night food venues were actually better then most ships. they also had the red frog who had 50% off pitchers of cocktails  several days from 3 to 5. And 50% off Caribbean drinks at certain times. So you could get drinks for 4.00.

    Tha'ts great news. Thanks for sharing the response. You might have that info on your phone so when you order, if punched twice you can show them.

     

    Could you share with the me the email address so I can ask them about if the steamed creamer would get a punch? You can private message me if needed. Thanks!

    i actually sent 2 e mails the response came from ex-co@rccl.com, however i wrote to mbabley@rccl.com and realized he is not ceo so i sent one to RichardFain@rccl.com. i copied e mail so i will bring it . Hope i don't have to .Hope this problem is fixed.

  11. hello, i finally got a response from jessica fernandez from executive office of rccl. she was kind enough to confirm that the coffee card does include 15 any coffees but if you order double shots or large to go you will get an extra punch of the card. But she did in fact confirm that my coffee of choice which is frappuccino will be only 1 punch and i will receive 15 of them on my ship Allure of the Seas. i hope that helps some of you . But that helps clear up things for me because that's what i order. Jessica actually went through the trouble to call the head barista and confirm this for me. I did send several e mails and wrote letters to clear this up. My letter didn't reach Mr. Fain but  i am satisfied with this response. By the way i did follow the proper ladder of ones job capacity from customer service  rep.,to manager of customer service ,and on to CEO. Most of the responses i received were form letters  with the same information printed on the card and then some additional data pulled from who knows where. I did purchase the card on cruise planner for my cruise.

    The machines had iced tea, water, lemonade, strawberry kiwi juice, and some tropical mango juice. I brought my own reusable travel mug and refilled as needed to carry around with me especially by the pool. 

    For me, just having gotten off the con was other passengers. So many rude people that would just stop and stand in front of you while you’re sitting listening to music. Kids running around screaming with no parents around, kids pushing into the lines in front of you. That, I put a stop to immediately. I think and am afraid that since prices went so low, clientele decency went down too. 

    I did enjoy the ship, though and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. 

    thank you that was so helpful. i hope you had a good vacation in spite of the rude people.
