On Refection last month the buffet on the last day of our cruise was ten times better than the rest of the cruise. Seafood in abundance and loads of fancy whole cakes instead of the pre sliced stuff. Call me a cynic but I think this was done on purpose so passengers would give the buffet food a higher rating on the end of cruise questionnaire!

A great answer to what the OP actually wanted information on. NOT!😂

We had this in Murano aboard Reflection last month

I was on Reflection last month and always got real Champagne at the Passport bar. No problem either in Morano on the two occasions we ate there. Strangely, I had to ask for French Champagne to get the real stuff otherwise they would palm you off with what the crew have nicknamed "Chateau de Gangway".

Exactly what I did and threw the lanyard away!. Since the cruise my medallion is used as a ball marker when playing golf

Beware Booking the Sun Princess Casino Event Offer
Esprit replied to POSGuy0112's topic in Princess Cruises
Sorry for your disappointment but I'm with Princess on this one due to the uniqueness of the Sun Princess balconies compared with all it's other ships. There are no standard balconies on Sun Princess so my only option is to book a luxury balcony to get a cabin on another deck. The cove balcony cabins are limited to deck 6. -
Had Lobster in Murano two weeks ago aboard Reflection

Celebrity vs. Princess: A recent comparison
Esprit replied to AbbyCruiser45's topic in Celebrity Cruises
We switch year on year between Celebrity and Princess. Last week we were aboard Reflection in the Med. Next year I'm looking at Sky Princess to Iceland. For us Princess win on entertainment day and night. I always feel disappointed with the Grand Foyer and Sky lounge as the Atriums on the Princess ships are so much better. Food last week on Celebrity wasn't as good as our Princess cruise the year before which surprised me! But for anyone that hasn't tried either I would strongly recommend both lines. -
This is my favourite drink, even if it comes only in cans on the ship. I disembarked Reflection yesterday and getting a proper Peroni became a challenge. They try to palm you off with the red labelled Peroni bottles which are inferior in quality. Hence the reason for the picture so I could prove to bar staff it was on board.

We got home within a record time once we landed at Gatwick. Bags delivered really quickly and we breezed through the Customs E gates. No wait either for a coach to take us to the long stay car park. Thank you @Les43 for allowing me to piggyback on your excellent “Live” thread. As for us we had an excellent cruise despite the heat. Service from all the crew was outstanding. I think this was the first cruise in many when I never needed to visit the guest relations desk.

Upgrading classic to premium drink - just for one person
Esprit replied to StellaTN's topic in Celebrity Cruises
I upgraded myself back in November for the Reflection cruise I’m now on. A couple of months ago I decided to upgrade my wife with the excess OBC. I wish I had done both at the same time as the cost was some $40 cheaper way back! -
How many children on Celebrity during school holidays?
Esprit replied to dingdong70's topic in Celebrity Cruises
Currently on Reflection and there are 500 under 18’s on board. You wouldn’t believe it wandering around the ship. No kids loitering on the stairs either which I’ve often seen on previous cruises. Whilst we can choose the time of year we go I prefer the summer holidays so there is a varied mix of passengers. My fear would be to have only coffin dodgers on board! -
We decided to return to the ship at 4 pm but had we known Enchanted Princess would leave around 6 pm we could have lingered longer so only Reflection passengers would make up the cable car queue. It took about 45 minutes for the line to reach the entrance so no worse than our previous visits. This time though we were joined by a donkey train.
