Dos Enchie

Luminae was closed for lunch on port days. We did have some very tasty lunches in OVC instead.

Thank you to everyone who commented on this thread. I certainly learned a lot from this experience. We primarily cruise Royal Caribbean and are very used to the unlimited dining package they offer which is unlimited provided the venue is open. I assumed Celebrity followed the same rules as RCL and that is not the case. This recent cruise on Celebrity was in a Sky Suite, previously we cruised in RS. So this was our first experience with the dining package. RS rules follow the RCL. We also paid a lot more than the $$ posted here. So I guess it stung even more when we could not eat on a port day to a restaurant that was open. I know better now and will not make the same mistake again. I also agree the name of this package needs to change and I gave that feedback to Celebrity. We still love to cruise, had a great time on our cruise despite this issue and we will still cruise with Celebrity in the future.

We have bought this package numerous times. Never had an issue until now. I think they recently changed it. Two waiters were even very confused about it and had to talk to their managers to find out the specifics. If the package did not say unlimited I would not be upset.

That is clearly not unlimited! We have never had this issue in the past.

Yes! Both Raw on 5 and Le Grand Bistro on the Beyond were open on a port day. We could not use our unlimited pkg at either place because it was not a sea day. Very frustrating!

We usually get the unlimited dining package with Celebrity. It USED to include all specialty dining (some with ala carte or upcharges) for both dinner and lunch, provided they were open. On a recent cruise, unlimited no longer meant unlimited. The new policy only allows you to use this for dinner every day but for lunch, only on sea days even though the restaurant is open. How is this unlimited??? We have complained for sure onboard and I will send a letter as well. I wanted to tell you so that you know how little you truly get with the “unlimited” dining package. We never would have bought this if we knew and we surely will not buy it again!
