  1. Says the guy who doesn't drink wine but wants to impose a corkage fee on others bringing wine onboard...
  2. OT: Finally found this site. (You've posted a chart like this on a few threads...) Question - Have you actually booked cruises with them??
  3. <moment of silence> Peace be with you and your family.
  4. Someone's post in another forum got me thinking...how about this prediction: they bring back everything to what it used to be...and charge a fee (+ gratuities of course...)
  5. This is part of a new cost-cutting measure that they are testing... Y'see, they release an odorless and colorless gas in the dining areas...it makes pax hallucinate that they are eating exactly what they ordered. However, everything is really just pork and beans... I guess it's working??😁
  6. Well, it's showing on my Equinox cruise for next week. For regular and Aqua pax...not for suite pax... and late night charge for all levels...
  7. Thanks so much for sharing this. It says to me (somewhat between the lines) that they are thinking about this and perhaps are doing trial runs on select ships to gauge the response. So it becomes even more important to provide feedback of your personal experiences...which I will certainly do after I return on the 21st (Jan) from the EQ...
  8. As mentioned in the title and other posts, yes they are charging the gratuity...
  9. I know that. But you gave me the impression you meant an actual TA. (from the above quote...) Sorry I misunderstood you...
  10. The answer to that is a big NO. Never said anything of the sort. I'm saying that the trends should be noticed and considered...that's all. To completely ignore them is foolish. These sort of things can be weighted in stat reports.
  11. And how many here will believe the poster is a TA...lol. And besides, it would probably violate some CC rule...and I doubt a TA would post something about Celebrity policy on this forum...they might tell you on a phone call, but not here... But I could be wrong 😀
  12. Agree about quantifiable numbers vs rants. But ignoring social media trends on various topics is certainly missing out on datapoints... I would also agree that the sample size here is small...
  13. Agree with first part, not the second part. I am absolutely sure that the surveys have more than their fair share of critics...it's the nature of the beast... And, no, I'm not saying that CC posters are unbiased...lol...
  14. As far as US beef goes...only about 2% of US beef is rated Prime... https://www.masterclass.com/articles/breaking-down-usda-meat-grades-difference-between-prime-choice-select-meat-grades
  15. Yes, I always do the math for AI on any cruise line...you gotta be careful sometimes...(actually all the time come to think of it...)
  16. One can argue that this rollout of the $10 penalty is confusing at best...there appears to be no smooth and well thought out plan for any of the changes...more of a shotgun blast...or throwing something against a wall and seeing if it sticks...
  17. I'll be on the EQ next week...as will be at least 5 others here...I'll be sure to check it out. The ship appears to be full...
