  1. Looking at 2025 cruise, you also have many "seasonal" or "holiday" specials to take advantage of. I upgraded during black friday and saved quite a bit. And if the price for add-ins drops, you can cancel and rebuy anytime for full refund.
  2. Funny coincidence I have Fine Steakhouse booked for day 5 as well!
  3. So glad to read this review, we board on 29th. Looking forward to it
  4. Thanks, I was thinking it might be a function of interest, but waiting for first one until last day or 2 sure cuts options. But I will check in with host on sailing day.
  5. We sail on the 29th, 11 nts, 5 sea days. We bought slot and blackjack entries during BF sales. In looking at my app, I see a slot tourney on day 2 sea day, and that's only 1. BJ tourney is showing 1 time day 10 sea day. Are these the only ones on an 11 day trip? In the past, I seem to recall multiple days, so we bought multiple entries for each tourney. Just wondering if anyone knows current schedules. Seems like Texas hold em runs daily, sometime multiple times. I will check with casino host, just thinking I'd have to cancel purchase at least 2 days before sailing if we can't use them. Thanks much.
  6. Just another IT kerfuffle, somebody loaded an old file.
  7. My 3rd party VPN has a button where I can turn it off as needed. Example is a banking app. Can't make mobile deposit when VPN is active, so I go to VPN app, click on "connected" button and it disconnects. Reverse steps when done. My Samsung phone is android, and ExpressVPN is client I use.
  8. I often have to temporarily disable VPN when on ship.
  9. Just got my statement, and logged in to make payment. Noticed a cash back benefit for Celebrity purchases. My card (Blue Cash) had spend $500 by 3/31/23 get $175 back. Checked my spouses card, same Blue Cash, had spend $1000, get $350 back. Not valid on 3rd party processing or sister lines like Royal. I did quick search, and didn't see this, sorry if its a repost. Gonna make my final payment early. Thanks Amex. YMMV, as is often the case with Amex Offers.
  10. I think so, I checked in first online, and when she checked it account was already setup. Don't think she ever entered anything different. Didn't think of that being an issue though. Thanks.
  11. Off the Equinox last week, and never had this happen before on dozen cruises. Wife and I shared cabin, had a bit of OBC to use pre-cruise, left a balance of about $40 on our reservation. Got email saying this would transfer to ship. No problem. When we got on board, our TV account showed $20 credit on both my account and my wifes. For sake of discussion lets say all OBC was non refundable, there was TA credit, shareholder credit, promo credit etc. We had all included, so the only charge to our cabin was my $90 purchase in Spirits store. Wife Seapass card was not used for any charges, just AI drinks. After disembarking, our final bill from Equinox showed a $70 charge, my liquor purchase less $20 OBC brought forward. The $20 credit on my wifes account just disappeared. Sent email to CelebrityoneTouch per comment on the bill, but have had no response in the week. In the past credits have always netted out, and I was expecting credit card charge to be $50. Did they change their handling of OBC? Had I known I could have had her buy one bottle of liquor! TIA
  12. Unless you buy stock when it was in the 70's like I did.... Will take another 40 cruises to break even.
  13. We go on December 1! Looking forward to a great trip.
  14. We were on mid June, didn't go to gym and notice the equipment. But we had a great time, foggy windows don't bother us, sometimes it looks like salt spray. Agree with food, beverage and staff service, we are good to go. If that kind of stuff bothers you, yes, book on a newer ship. We had been on Equinox as well, and like the familiar deck plans.
  15. My favorite last November was Jaya. Hoping he is back in December.
