It looks like this offer is not available to Canadian AMEX Cobalt card users. Oh well.
Only for Oceania. I only wish HAL in Canada offered this.

We had to skip Sydney last week due to strong winds.

I knew I could count on Canadians to be a wealth of information! Thank you all! I'm just hoping for a little bit of a warm spell, haha
We just returned on Volendam. The temperatures were cool on many days and the Lido was insanely cold. If you need warmth, go to the Hudson room.
We have visited Quebec City in October a decade ago and we were welcomed by 6" of snow.
We're back on Volendam at the end of September as well.

No overwhelming need to pay for internet access. Other than a few minutes here and there I’ve had cellular service. T-Mobile btw
Most Canadian ports provide free internet in the terminal.

Lois, nothing has changed. Bring up a tip topic and the the responses will be the same. It's just that the popcorn has become more expensive.

Such is the life of a CEO. Go where the money is LOL
You mean there is money in sports: "Ottawa commits $104M to help Toronto host 2026 World Cup games"

Seriously? You were actually able to do it the old way? I sent mine in via email as I ususally do, and received the following response:
Or did you mean that you ended up having to do it with StockPerks? TIA for a response....or a response from anyone who was able to do it successfully through email.
The Old way but perhaps they looked at my age and realized the new tech is beyond octogenarians.

I booked our May Volendam back to back cruise three hours ago and I already have approval for our stock credit.
I sent the email the old way, wasted an hour trying to get the phone app and downloads with a suggestion that we might get approval within a week.
Love the old way!!

Thank you so much for the detailed information! We have never done a back to back in our 26 years of cruising, but the older we get, everything seems to be more complicated! Thanks for the speedy answer.
It does not get any simpler once you have already passed through immigration in a previous port.
When are you travelling?

It all depends on the "cruise director".
We were on N Statendam and there were opportunities with BB King, and the pianos, and a DJ.. Forget about the Rolling Stones lounge. Things are changing. Young people seem to like dancing "at a distance". Bands are being cancelled. We even had music in the Crow's Nest and recorded music. On Zaandam and Zuiderdam we were disappointed.
Fast dancing: the second best form of exercise; slow dancing leads to the first.

Over Murano ?
If you are very very hungry, no other choice offers an equal stuffing as the Porch. Murano is our favourite because it is fine dining at its best and I pace myself to get to the cheese!

We have never bothered to make reservations in the MDR, and have never waited more than about 5 minutes.
So you're the reason everyone else has to wait half an hour.🙃

I received this email from RCL Friday evening:
Reservation Transfers <reservationtransfers@rccl.com>ReplyReply allFTo:YouFri 2024-04-26 9:58Dear *******,
Please be advised that your request to transfer reservation #2044*** to be serviced by xxxxxx CRUISES ------------- was processed.
We thank you for your business.
Sales Administration Dept.The problem is that the cruise sailed in December 2023.I received two of these, the other was a sailing on Constellation in January. 2024.Did anyone else get a notification? -
So many people with priorities, 5 Star, 4 star, suites and oh, Club Orange.

Celebrity also lets Park West use their best lounges for auctions, blocking off the equivalent of the Crow's Nest during the entire day. Complaints have never worked on X about this issue..

Hi there,
Looking to make a switch from Royal Caribbean to Celebrity Cruises. Was looking at Ascent or Apex because they are newer ships but found out the Constellation is offering the best itinerary for our wishes (Dubrovnik, Koper, Split).
The reviews of this ship are mixed, mainly because it is an older ship. So this has me somewhat worries especially since we are 'used to' newer ships with RCL.
We have cruised on Constellation for nearly 20 years. She is our favourite Celebrity ship, recently cruising for two months from December to January 2024. The modifications will be minor. The crew is fantastic: in our opinion better than any Royal experience (10+ from Enchantment to Allure). The itinerary is more important than the ship. The cabin choice on the "old" ships are superior to Celebrity's newer ships, depending on your Euro bank account...

Amazingly our opinion is quite different. Unless you really like to hear jazz musicians playing for themselves, we found this to be the worst music group we have ever experienced. On the first day we asked for two dance songs (Crazy was one) so that we could make use of the dance floor. They told us that the song was on their play list but they never played a danceable song (ie one that you can hold on to your partner.) We stayed after trivia three times but they did not accommodate our request. We were planning on taking a grand voyage on Volendam but if this is the music they offer, we are not interested.
Trivia was outstanding!! Hats off to Clif, the quizmaster for offering different questions for 14 days.
