HaHaHa an Emotional Support Priest (ESP) who you could bring along. I just found this very funny. Would you take him on the plane too? Not trying to offend anybody but just very funny to me. 😄
Yes. I meant it to be funny! I suggested they implement a bring your own priest program (BOP). Kidding aside, I know many crew are Catholic and would gladly attend Mass if offered.

Well, it is safe to say for me that unless I am traveling with a priest, my September cruise on Celebrity will be my last...at least for the foreseeable future. It is an 11 day Alaska and I pray there is a priest on board. I will just stick to all inclusive for the Caribbean because then we can make sure that we make it to Mass. Sujac - I used to be from the Arlington Diocese, love it!
I just couldn't believe that they wouldn't budge when I was willing to pay! I was told they didn't want to offend anyone. Ummmm ok, I'm a little offended by that statement. There are gatherings for every other group under the sun onboard.

I agree with all of the above. I have gone so far as to ask Celebrity if I brought my own priest would they be willing to waive the the 200% cruise fare, so I would only have to pay for one. Anybody want guess what their answer was?🙃

You don't need to wait for an email. Here's a link they can use.

I was in a RS on Summit 2 weeks ago and requested to dine in for dinner one evening (Tuscan), I requested this on embarkation day and told the suite manager I was flexible on the day, any night would be fine. I was denied this request and told they no longer offer this to RS and PH. I was also in RS a few months ago and was able to have Tuscan in the suite, no problem. Maybe I should have asked the butler instead 😉

I mistakenly marked the entire forum as read. Does anyone know how I undo this?

I will also be on 11/30! I just got Summit after 13 days (10/20/11/2) and it was wonderful!!
Sorry! Meant to quote an earlier post!

Maria is the Staff Captain and I think Danuta is Hotel Director

We are booked in a RS for a cruise on Summit, leaving next Sunday. Haven’t heard from the shoreside concierge yet. In previous years we heard from her several weeks out. Has anyone had recent experience with the Summit shoreside concierge? How far in advance did you hear?
Thanks!
I am also in a RS on 8/26 and haven’t heard from Jaimie yet either. The ship is completely sold out, so I expect she’s swamped. I plan to call tomorrow.
So looking forward to the sailing!!

I also received a Move Up email for my upcoming Summit Bermuda cruise. We are in RS and the 2 PH cabins are booked according to the website!

I much prefer the RS. We travel with two 17ys olds and the 1/2 bath is key. While the balcony is not as large as CS we still find it adequate. I also love the extras that come with RS, i.e, the unlimited specialty dining and the bar set up.

Just signed up also #1124!

The last time our family of four were in RS, we had a rollaway bed brought in. It was brought in at the evening turn down service and removed in the morning. We found that worked very well. However, we were not two couples travelling. I can see the pros of both, but with the enhanced luggage and embarkation procedures (for RS & PH) along with the unlimited speciality dining and other perks, I would be inclined to go with RS.

I will be sailing on the Eclipse out of Miami end of November. What time do I have to book my flight home to take advantage of this service? Thank you!

I had an 11:15 AM flight booked and my bags made it to DC before me!

This is from the Celebrity website, I have had the opportunity to do each of these separately and I think it was well worth it. The below tour is offered on at sea days and the cost is $99. It takes about 2-2.5 hours. You can book in advance.

Does anyone know if this sailing is sold out? It's not showing on the website (which means nothing!) but I always thought even if a sailing was sold out it would still show up.

I find WhatsApp to be invaluable. It allows calls over WiFi without incurring any charges. Also, iPhone to iPhone allows free facetime calls, again through WiFi.

Why have so many potential advocates gone quiet??
How was the interview?
Anyone get hired?
Maybe they were sworn to secrecy. :eek:
For me, quiet because I haven't heard anything yet. They said I would hear in 7-10 days. The sign up doc I received showed interviews for Sunday/Monday/Tuesday (8/9-8/11) so, I didn't expect to hear anything before today (7 days from last interview). The interview was longer than I expected -40 minutes and was mostly Celebriity brand questions and a mock chat with a potential cruiser. No personal questions and no talk of expectations or compensation.
We'll see. I have no idea what they are looking for and I know so little about it, I'm not sure I even want to pursue it if I hear back.

Why not just delete? Or set a filter to block those messages? Probably takes a lot less time than phoning.
I've been deleting them, but the emails are coming from a generic celebrity email address so I am hesitant to block it.

I have called and emailed to no avail. Totally annoyng, not to mention the invite to join CC when I am already Elite.
-
Take a look at your email and look under cc.
Yep. see it now Arno. Thanks for the heads up!
-
Already I'm very hesitant. I don't like the fact that others will have my email address.
I did not see anyone's email address on the google doc I received.

Hi All--we are Suzanne & Jack from Arlington, VA, traveling with our children John & Eileen. We just booked this cruise today. We have Summit booked in Oct. & Reflection booked for New Years so when I booked Caribbean (again)for March 2016, my husband said "no more Caribbean for a while!" So I went a little crazy and booked this cruise and Antartica (Feb 2017)
We have been to Australia twice but never to the South Pacific. Fiji has always been on my bucket list, so I'm really looking forward to this cruise.
I added our names to the spreadsheet--hope I did it correctly ;)
