It just gives you an idea of what might be on offer . Quite often the menus change while you are on board too
All these people are planning, or say they are planning, their speciatly dining around the app....I'll wait till I get on board!
-
You know....people keep saying to look at the app and you will see the MDR menus for your sailing...then you can decide what nights to do specialty dining, etc...
BUT...the menus have changed like every three days! On my sailing first there was no lobster listed...then it was on night #6, a week later it dissapeared...and now it has re-appeared on night #7. What's up with that?

It's been three months since anyone posted on this thread...has any work been done at the Botanical Gardens? I wanted to go in July....

Is it really 2 1/2 hours ????

Cruise was won both times we played, unfortunately we weren’t the winners but fun anyway.
Wow! People actually won!!! Cool!

It's pretty much just like on TV, but no models....electronic LED screen with the cases.Very basically you buy the equivalent to a bingo card and if they call your card number [don't quote me!] you get to be the one on stage. Everyone else with a card can win a prize [like a Celebrity pencil with no eraser!] if their card matches the cases or something like that.
The last big winner I saw won...I think it was ... $1!

We just got off Silhouette and noticed that LPC was lucky to have three to four tables occupied. On a couple of nights, it looked empty. After trying it when we were on Beyond in January, we said we’d never again do that restaurant. It’s nothing but a gimmick.
Of course it's a gimmic...how could it be anything else? They're projecting a tiny man on your dinner plate. Jajaja!

Yes! That's the one I want. I looked at the app and it seems the first few days are one menu and then the rest are the Lobster one spoken of above. I will wait until I get on the ship as things always change...but I'm a sucker for the word "Tartlet"!

Not to be “Debbie Downer” but we did not enjoy LPC.
First, we wanted the lobster menu, but NOPE, wrong time.
Secondly, the show had a designated start time, we were 15 minutes early, but another group was 20 minutes late, so they delayed the dinner to wait for a few inconsiderate people….
I won’t go again.I hope your experience is better.
Question...had you checked the menu before you made the reservations? If yes...then that would be annoying! I want the shortribs and that's why I said above I will wait until I board to make the reservation. Did you miss the first 20 minutes of the video show because of the late comers?

I’m so excited to have come across this thread. Our daughters really wanted Le Petit Chef in New Orleans, but that seemed like a silly option in a city known for so many great restaurants. But on a Celebrity Cruise, with some OBC from the travel agent . . . perfect time to try LPC.
Yes! It seems OBC is the way to go! The menu is also different on different nights. I am waiting until I get on board before making my reservation.

But why is it unlucky? -->Some believe that this belief started in Ancient Rome because when the number 17 is viewed as the Roman numeral XVII, and then changed anagrammatically to VIXI, it reminds Italians of the Latin language phrase that translates to "I have lived," which can be understood as, "My life is over."

Hey!
Has anyone been on the Celebrity Eclipse recently? How is the free sauna in the men's changing room? Sailing on June 30th.

Points show up pre cruise and you can use them pre cruise. We generally wait until after final payment because it is a final transaction and if you cancel the OBC is lost. I assume if you modify the booking to a new cruise the OBC would also be lost.
I tried to convince my DH to take the statement credit and book on the card for the extra rewards points but it is his card and he likes the feeling of OBC.Okay....how do you use your OBC credit pre-cruise? If I were to select something on the website it wants me to pay with credit card....do tell!

I have used points in the past and redeemed them a few weeks or a month before the cruise. We redeemed for OBC to be used once on the ship. But I have a different situation now. We booked a European cruise for August 2025 and only have a small amount of OBC. We've have a lot of points to redeem so we could get more OBC so that we could book some excursions before they are sold out. My question is if we trade in the points now to book excursions or upgrade drink pkg, what will happen if we had to cancel the cruise (or Celebrity cancels). I think once the points are redeemed they are not refundable. Is that correct? If so what have people done?
Hi....one point....and correct me if I am wrong....if you redeem them now....you can't use OBC until you get on board. So you can't pre-book excursions. Unless you know something I don't know!
-
How far in advance should you redeem your credit card points for the OBC to be on the safe side?

Absolutely! There are benches in front of the glass blowing area set up for viewing.
Hello!
Do they have demo sessions where they make stuff for show, aside from the personal paid sessions? Do you sign up to see these shows? How does it work?

What if you are sailing solo? Would you be seated with others at Le Petit Chef?

Oh...it should work if it is 10 days out!

Hi!
When is your cruise date? It may be too early? I believe the exact same page is included in the Ticket so you would have it there if that download works.
OBC from credit card points?
in Celebrity Cruises
Posted · Edited by HLR
Okay! I'm ready to cash in my points for OBC for my sailing in June. So after I redeem them on line with Bank Of America, then I call the Captian's Club to apply them to the cruise I am going on...correct?
