We will be sailing B2B on the Infinity in a Buenos Aires to Miami cruise this coming February. I have not found recent photos of the cabin ( since the balcony was added) nor a recent review. We were interested in the size of the balcony and if it has a table large enough for dining on . Also are there loungers ? Is there a dining table in the suite? Should you have photos of the newer M class Celebrity suites could you share them? Thanks.

What is it like to sail solstice from Sydney to New Zealand to the Tahitian Islands & ending in Hawaii ?

 

This is a cruise we are thinking hard about for April 2015:D

Should you decide to sail with us on this cruise there is a cruise board already. We hope to see you there. I am looking forward to the spectacular ports and beautiful ocean.

Here is a picture of Radiance's aft cabins and balconies.

 

The space to the left would be part of the inside of your cabin.

Thanks, Patti. Wow! No wonder everyone loves that cabin. A large verandah in the shade with a large cabin and it is a cat 2 for balcony cabins. Thank you all for your assistance. Had I not been on this board we would have missed it.

We have just booked the Feb - March 2015 Aussie top and bottom cruises on the Radiance in 9256. Does anyone know if 9256 has any cover or overhang on what looks like a nice large verandah? Also what is the large space next to it to the left as you look at the aft? RCI could not tell me. Thanks for your answers.

Where did you hear this? Radiance is still sailing to and from Australia in the fall of 2013 and the spring of 2014. Radiance went through her refit back in May of 2011.

 

Jewel is not scheduled for a refit until sometime in 2014 ((originally scheduled for 2016).

Hi Patti and Jim,

We are scheduled for the Aussie Top Cruise in October of 2013 . No one has said the cruise will not go. Thanks for all of the info on Radiance. We have not taken RCI before and everyone has such nice things to say about Radiance.

Disembarkation>...Walk off as a small group, directly to luggage and customs...no lines

Consierge...make those last minute arrangements, tours, reservations, assist with problems that might cause you to stand in line.

We love the reserved seating by the pool..no need to spend time searching for a spot with two loungers together (and the pool crew make sure suite pax are in the area....ie, this way there are enough loungers for suite guests.

Quiet, relaxed atmosphere of the CL

We are Diamond on RCI and Elite on Celebrity. We will be sailing on The Radiance in a JS for the top half of Austrialia. When we have a Sky suite (the lowest class suite on Celebrity) we have a butler and access to special seating and services. It appears from all of your descriptions that we will have no special treatment on RCI with our JS. Is that correct? We are sailing for the destination but will keep my expections low. I am disappointed that all suite passengers do not receive the same treatment on RCI. On the upside - there is one less person to tip. :)

We have enjoyed both cabins on the Eclipse on 2 seperate cruises. We found the space to be large enough to serve breakfast to 8 and the veranda is wonderfully large also. We used it often to have lunch and dinner. They are great suites on S-class. The suites are quite, shaded, and close to the elevators.
