So if I have the classic package when I booked, I can still upgrade, right? My package came under a group rate and isn’t showing in my planner. According to my TA it won’t show and I can’t upgrade until I board which means I can’t take advantage of the 35% off. Does that sound right to you?

Flights by Celebrity - More Expensive Now?
Georgia_Peaches replied to dazey's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Last March we almost missed our cruise to the Mexican Riviera due to AA mechanical issues. We did not use FBC and were in panic mode for nearly 24 hours. With a little luck and A LOT of help from people here on CC, we were literally the last people to board the ship. Though we were in contact with the shoreside concierge as well as the port agent, there was no guarantee we'd make it and getting to the ship at the first available port would have been on our dime. So yes, FBC seems like a no brainer to me. It's not for everyone...and there was a time when I definitely poo-pooed the benefits...not any more. -
I can understand why they would pivot to no photos. We were allowed to take photos on our bridge tour but it was several years ago. I don’t think I’ve looked at them even once. I think people should be ok. We have gotten to such a state in our culture that some sort of camera/phone is practically surgically attached to our bodies. I’m ok with some things just being a memory in my mind.

Our porthole room was wonderful! We had room 8118 on Ascent. It was quiet, spacious, and the true balcony was small but wonderful! I am not a Sun worshiper so being able to sit on the balcony in a shaded spot any time of day was an added bonus.

Eden Bar Celebrity Edge questions
Georgia_Peaches replied to varpinater's topic in Celebrity Cruises
The Eden signature cocktails are weird IMO and not worth the upcharge. When we visit the Eden bar we order our tried and true go-to's...Makers and ginger ale for him and Grey Goose and soda with a splash of cran for me. Call me boring but the strange concoctions in Eden just aren't for me. -
Just tell the truth. If you can, name names of those who took care of you so they are not negatively impacted. Celebrity brass should be able to separate out concerns that are corporate over those that are service related specific to an actual person on the ship. Regarding food quality, I have to say that it has vastly improved over this time last year...IMO, of course.

Flash Sale Upgrade Beverage Package
Georgia_Peaches replied to m8zenblue's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Was the fact that you had a drinks package already showing in your cruise planner? My package is not. And whom did you call? The general Celebrity number or did you call Captain's Club? -
No noise at all! Which deck were you assigned? You have a greater chance of hearing noise from below (if assigned a room on a lower deck) than from the door alcove.

Flash Sale Upgrade Beverage Package
Georgia_Peaches replied to m8zenblue's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Thank you! I will give this a try. But I reached out to my TA as well and she said it didn’t show bc I have a group rate and I’d have to upgrade once on board. I hope this isn’t the case bc then I can’t take advantage of the sale. -
We think it’s rather unique and enjoyed it immensely. So wonderful that there’s enough out there for all of us sea lovers to find a product to best suit our cruising needs.

Yes Yes Yes! We also thought the 10:45 shows were way too late! We managed to hang in there but not gonna lie, it was a struggle!

How unfortunate! I know you must have been disappointed and rightfully so! However, imo this was a shortcoming of the staff on Eclipse, not the celebration package in general. We had a similar package on both Ascent and Equinox and both times were flawlessly executed. I hope customer relations on Eclipse provided you a refund for dropping the ball.

Edge Class Main Dining Room Question

your mileage may vary...sorry, for a minute there, I forgot I wasn't a millennial. -
Flights by Celebrity - More Expensive Now?
Georgia_Peaches replied to dazey's topic in Celebrity Cruises
We booked via FBC for our upcoming Alaska cruise. The flight to Seattle was the same as the carrier. The advantage was not having to pay for the flights up front. In your circumstance, I would not pay 27% more just to have the ability to pay later. -
Edge Class Main Dining Room Question
Georgia_Peaches replied to ScottC4746's topic in Celebrity Cruises
No issue getting a 2 top. I can't say which had/will have better service over another...they were all great...but YMMV. -
Well we will have our first experience on Edge at the end of May but we have been on Ascent, which is also an eclass ship. Unique to Edge (e Class) is that there is no assigned dining, despite what it might say in your cruise planner. You can show up at your desired MDR at your desired time and be seated on a first available basis. I also know that Edge is a bit smaller than the sisters in this class and has a different bar set up in the main foyer.

Flash Sale Upgrade Beverage Package
Georgia_Peaches replied to m8zenblue's topic in Celebrity Cruises
They seem to be quite random but often they align with holidays. Our next major holiday is coming up in May. My problem is, my drinks package isn't even showing in my planner so there's no option to upgrade. Not sure how to fix it. -
Live Celebrity Constellation 23 April 2024 Rome to Ravenna
Georgia_Peaches replied to surfnsun's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Finally caught up on your adventure. Love your pictures and ship details. Connie looks very fresh and bright. With the amount of time spent off the ship in a port intensive itin, as long as the bathroom works and bed is comfy, I’m happy! Thank you for being so generous with your time! -
Have early dining…what to do if back from excursion after
Georgia_Peaches replied to thumpersmom's topic in Celebrity Cruises
You could also try to change your early dining the anytime dining once you board.
