We just got off the Connie TA last week . We all (4) thought it was great, it was in better shape than the Eclipse was in October for sure. The only thing that I wasn’t fussy about was the buffet setup. Great staff we would all sail on her again.

We feel the same I loved the drink package but they are so expensive now. The fact that both people have to have it, at around 80cdn. a day each, on a 10 day cruise I don’t we are going to drink 1600 dollars worth. We utilize the elite happy hour to the max and pay as we go now.

I agree with Malta . Malaga was also a good one.

I’ve had crushed potato chips on halibut in a very good restaurant also.

You only pay corkage if you bring your own wine bottle to the Dining Room.

We stayed a the Crowne Plaza it was fine , restaurants are close by . We took the shuttle to the taxi/ Uber stand got a taxi quickly..

No it’s unlimited!

Only if you have a package!

If you want a catamaran trip stingray and snorkeling trip we went with Stingray Sailing. It is one of my favourite excursions ever , the private ones are much better than the crowed ship tours.

We were on twice last year it was very good with a great crew!

I will say that used to like to have the package. The last cruise we were on was the first without the package. We had the Elite breakfast drinks and used the 2 hours to stock up on beer and water, by asking for them unopened and put them in the fridge. For dinner we got wine and carried it in the dining room lots of people do it. I had rum and cokes before dinner. It was way cheaper to pay as you go whenever you wanted a drink than to buy the package, especially since the package can sometimes run over a thousand each.

I know I’ve had I might have the crumble next time!

I love the Lawn Club, I always get the ribeye. The sides are great but I don’t get all the fuss about a cookie though.

Thanks for the reply I think we will bid on two .

Hi can you bid on two different categories for the same cruise?

Thanks for the info we will have to try it we have 23 days on the Edge next year!

Hi first time on Edge class ships, is the Rooftop similar to the Lawn Club on S class , and would you recommend it? Thanks.

I found the beef on the Eclipse in October to be great. The prime rib was very good and the ribeye in Tuscan was excellent also.

How are you getting them?

Thanks everyone for the replies lots to read up on. Had a upgrade booked last night the price got screwed up our TA has to sort out today, it is handy when you can get in touch with her on a short notice.

Just booked a middle SV on the Edge in October next year! Pretty happy to be able to upgrade from a IV.

We were there tonight don’t miss it!

Just wondering what if any extras you get from your TA when you book a cruise. We have been a very loyal customer to our agent for many years, and we seem to be able to get the same deals on our own. We used to get a small obc now we get nothing. Reading on CC I see that people seem to be getting something for their loyalty. Just wondering what agents booking in Canada are giving if anything.

We have but fairly expensive.

We are thinking about booking an Australia and New Zealand cruise next year on the Edge. Looking at maybe a guaranteed partially obstructed iv. Not crazy about the IV balcony to begin with but the Edge is the ship in Australia at this point. This is our first cruise on the Edge class how bad is the obstruction we usually sail on S class. Thanks.
