Agree, do your research before CALLING Celebrity to book air. I found little to desire on the website, but did get a better fare by 

telling the agent which flights I was interested in. Very pleasant booking.

I bought OBC for upcoming Rotterdam cruise.  Good deal to get  $100 back on the card. 

We are new to Holland America and have heard of an "Orange Night" . Told to pack something orange to wear.  Anybody have more details?  Thanks.

Mine was received at passport office Feb 10 and I am still waiting for the new one. Still not a month yet, so within expectations.

Infinity has LaVazza as the coffee on Caribbean and South American cruises last year.

Embassy suites also worked well for us. In addition to welcome cocktail party and breakfast to order, it is short walk (1 block ) to shops, restaurants, groceries. They have shuttles to port and from airport. If you drive, they allow parking while you are away.

Going on Infinity on Oct. 29 just out of Dry Dock. I have heard conflicting reviews of the restaurants on the ship. Should we just stick to the MDR for the seven days or should we try one of the restaurants?

We sailed around South America for 2 weeks earlier this year on Infinity. Ate every night in Main Dining Room with good service and food every time. Buffet for breakfast and lunch meals was okay for us. All of them surpass what we eat at home!

It's been a few years since our last cruise on Celebrity and I am wondering if a couple of our very favorite things are being done. We will be on the Reflection.

 

1. We loved the late afternoon/early evening sushi in the buffet area, and we could take the sushi outside, order a drink and listen to live guitar music. It was so lovely and I really hope that's still happening.

 

2. I love the cold muesli in the buffet for breakfast, served with lots of nuts and seeds. I miss that so much. If they still have it I might even make myself get up early enough for breakfast most mornings. :D

Infinity afternoon buffet had lovely sushi and muesli at morning buffet January this year. Sushi was very popular.

hello all

 

we are in the process of booking our first Celebrity cruise in 20 years so although not new to cruising we are new to turn of the century Celebrity! Not fussy about cabin size but do care about noise. Curious to know more about Deck 3 inside cabins which we considered but quickly nixed when we saw that deck 4 is the main deck with the foyer, hotel desk, some restaurants and bars and nearly all public space. To me that means lots of noise and activity above. We went with 2028 instead with cabins above and below. Any tips would be appreciated. Heading Pacific Coastal next SEPTEMBER so we will be in one of our favorite cities, Cruise Raider.

We sailed in 2030 on Infinity around the horn of South America last January. No complaints. It is an OV. We have rebooked same area for next month. Found it to be quiet and well located. Good luck.

I have been on a few cruises, but never ordered from room service. Did play the breakfast room service prank on my friends once, though, as they were in the cabin next door (I had the corner cabin, so our doors were very close to each other on perpendicular walls), so I heard them put out the card the night before. I was in their cabin with them when it all arrived - definitely was worth it!! ;) I learned that from these boards, though of course it is usually bratty kids doing it to strangers - I wouldn't ever do that!

Sorry to sound ignorant, but what is the breakfast room service prank?
