On our upcoming Millie cruises next month, the app menu shows Broiled Lobster Tail" in the MDR on day 6, and does not give any indication that there is a charge for additional tails.

Ok this would definitely make the most sense to me... we board in a couple of weeks with the Premium package, so I'll have to see how it plays out 🙂 Thanks!

I guess I’m still a little confused… The celebrity site specifically states that the large martinis are included in the premium package, so I’m still not sure why each of those martini bar choices has a $15 and an $18 price beside them.

Yup… aware of that, but wondering what the $15/$18 refers to for the martini bar menu drinks?

I noticed that most of the martini's listed show a price of " $15/$18 "... previously, the martini's at the martini specific bar were included in the premium package, but this would make it seem that they might not be? That pricing is a little confusing to me... can anyone shed some light on that?

Almost exactly word for word our experiences and intentions as well.

Not every balcony can be opened up to each other for use by guests.

We got off a cruise on Dec 17th in Port Canaveral (RCL), so while not technically a Celebrity ship, still fairly relevant and current: -much like jelayne's experience, we found that about 10% of guests were masked in busier settings, like lineups for the MDR, theatre, lobby entertainment activities (we were among those folks) -about 10% - 20% of staff were masked through the 8 days, including some room stewards and some MDR/bar staff -No announcements of any cases of covid, no real chatter about it, and on our cruise at least, it didn't seem prevalent at all - we did not witness any significant coughing or other illness symptoms, and we personally (group of 5 of us) stayed healthy throughout and returned home healthy too

Very true! Once I viewed diagrams and photos of the rooms, it all made sense as to why it's only alternating rooms whose balconies can be opened to one another. 👍

Thanks for the very helpful info... Now I understand how how they pair up the balconies that CAN open to one another, and that it's due to the placement of the balcony egress door alternating in each room. Makes sense! But why they wouldn't have set up adjoining rooms to have adjoining balconies as well is a little weird to me. Now I know which ones to book - thanks again everyone! 🙂

Trying to get some definitive answers on the topic of balcony dividers, specifically on the Magic. I know that some rooms are adjoining, meaning there is a connecting door inside the room itself to allow passage, but my question is strictly to do with the balcony dividers. In the diagram below, would rooms 9292 and 9296 have the balcony divider that can be opened? How about 9284 and 9288 (regardless of their adjoining room status)? Thanks 🙂

Ohhhh darn... ok, thank you for checking on that for me 🙂 happy New Year!

Thank you for checking on that for me, did you happen to notice if they have the Meiomi?

Ooooh heyyyy... one more request if you're looking for something to do (haha!): Do you think you might be able to find out if they are carrying either Belle Glos or the Meiomi pinot noir wines by the glass, and if so, how much they are? Many thanks!! 🙂

Glad to hear you made it out of TO on time... what a total gong show for most travel in Canada the last week or two though.. wow! Excitedly following your post as we will be boarding the Millie for a few weeks in February - can't wait! Our last Celebrity cruise was in Sept on the Eclipse, and a few times there were specialty restaurant staff wondering around trying to get guests to sign up for a discount for the Tuscan and Le Petit Chef - have you noticed any staff doing that on your cruise? Generally makes it considerably more economical to wait for that deal rather than booking in advance. You mentioned the live music has been great to listen to... hoping at least one of the offerings has some good danceable music? As in top 40/disco/easy rock... ? Hope you continue to enjoy your vacation, and that everything is very smooth for you for your return to the frozen northern tundra we live in 😉

Did the juice of a lemon.. not sure adding some lime juice is quite what it needs... 😞

Hiya cruisers… Any chance anyone is currently on board and could get the exact recipe for the lavender daiquiri from schooners? There is one online that shows 1 ounce lavender syrup, 1 ounce Bacardi superior rum, and juice of a lemon… but it definitely doesn’t taste the same as it did on the ship last week. Hoping someone can get the exact ingredients and measurements for me🙏

Having done that itinerary, I would actually say Santorini, probably against popular opinion. Santorini was actually a little boring for us, and while seeing Oia is pretty (the famous blue roofed white domed buildings), there really wasn't a lot else there for us. We took the tram up the mountain, though some in our group chose the donkey route - they regretted that after one of them got scraped up knees on the walls due to their cranky animal. Ooops. But we really loved going to the Acropolis in Athens so much!!! The history, the views, and then enjoying traditional Saganaki, bread and wine in a little streetside cafe afterwards.

Thanks for the info on the hair conditioner.. will definitely bring my own on! LOL! One more question... does the app give guests the ability to "chat" with each other while on board without having to invest in a wifi plan? Thanks again 🙂

Loving your review! We're boarding a sister to the Radiance, the Jewel, next week, so you're definitely whetting our appetite! Question... in regular balcony cabins, can you show a picture of what they have for shampoo, conditioner, and soap? Specifically... wondering if they use the shampoo/conditioner "2 in 1" combo that is just hideous... or do they have an actual conditioner? Thanks... and hope you continue to enjoy a glorious cruise!!

Thanks! I think the Merritt mall option is probably the best one... and UBER it is 🙂

We definitely won’t be renting a car, but Uber is some thing we can do… Macy’s sounds appealing, and somebody else suggested Bealls which sounds like it could be a good one as long as they have good stock in store and not just what they show online. My sister is definitely a shop in person kind of gal… Ordering stuff online is out of the question for her. Hoping she can find at least two or three outfits to augment what she has now… but thankfully her feet and mine are the exact same size so she doesn’t have to worry about any shoe shopping as I will be bringing plenty enough for both of us lol

We have a cruise coming up in a few weeks out of Port Canaveral, and my sister is time crunched leading up to our trip and will need to shop for sun dresses/evening smart casual dresses the day before we cruise after arriving in Port Canaveral - can anyone recommend a great mall not too far from the port area where we might be able to shop for clothing for her? We are willing to take an UBER... kind of thinking like a one-stop mall that might have a few different options that aren't too expensive? Any suggestions/advice welcome... thanks 🙂

For a thirteen year old boy, unlimited pizza is like winning a food lottery! LOL!!

We are on the Jewel in three weeks as well 🙂 And agree... love the Radiance class size.. we were on the Brilliance for our Baltics and British Isles cruises a few years ago and she was wonderful!!
