Barwick Cruiser

Hi Kelly @PinkSandGirljust binged all six pages to get caught up 😅 Hope you and your family have a wonderful cruise, looking forward to following along! Cathy

ok, now I understand, thought you were traveling with your husband as well as your mother. This sounds like a good solution and Celebrity is usually pretty good about moving your things to the new cabin at turnaround. Sounds like a great trip with your Mom (or do you say Mum?), looking forward to following along if you have time to post!

Glad you’ve sorted the trip with your Mom but did you book an Aqua class and a concierge class? Will whoever is staying in the AQ cabin not eat in Blu? Because pretty sure Concierge class have to eat in MDR. 🤔.

Silly question but I know, David, you and your wife like to dive…is there any opportunity on this itinerary? What excursions do you have planned otherwise?

Looking forward to following along! Are you and your wife flying separately? Will be a very different experience without your adult children along…bit of a second honeymoon! 😉 Enjoy!!

Can you not just make a new booking at the sale price and then go in and cancel your original booking? 🤔

I am also looking forward to following along. What are you ports? Any excursions planned? DH and I love the Silhouette…great choices for speciality dining without all the extra cabins of Reflection. Have fun and smooth flights and sailing! 🛳

We actually did that years ago on the Summit in San Juan. Waited in Sky Lounge for the zero update and then were free to roam the ship. I originally thought your post was going to speak to the testing for B2Bs. 🤷‍♀️

A sale! Yes, pre book!

Fee is $120US to make a standard item and then you pay extra depending on what item you wish to make if you don’t want to make the standard item. If you have obc you can use it for this and then it doesn’t really cost anything! 🤷‍♀️

We were on the last Eclipse sailing to Alaska and I signed up online for the class and booked my time slot on the first day. Lots of availability at that point. The classes are supposed to be 20 minutes each but it depends on the item you choose to make. I selected the sea turtle and it took almost double the time whereas the passenger before me chose a heart paperweight and she was done easily in the 20 minutes. Different items also require different techniques so my turtle enabled me to do more hands on than the paperweight I observed being made. All in all it was a great experience and I love my turtle souvenir and would gladly do this “excursion” again if ever on one of the three ships that have the ovens.

We’ve had 6030 and 6035 on the Summit previously. Both are sweet sixteens, in fact they’re the last cabins of that designation on either side. Both had very deep balconies with lots of shade. We liked those cabins especially since we were far enough back that there weren’t any visible obstruction in our view of the water and even had a decent view towards the rear of the ship. Try and get one of these!

We’re on the first leg with you, so glad you’re having a wonderful visit to Toronto. Love the silhouette pic at the CN tower. Hope to meet you and your hubby onboard, my DH is also a craft beer aficionado…they’d have lots to discuss hahaha Cathy

Love Quebec City! Spent three nights there (splurged on the Château Frontenac) this past May celebrating a milestone birthday for me. Hope you got to Montmorency Falls, just spectacular and you can climb from the bottom to the top, or drive if mobility is an issue. Looks like you had great weather also! Amazing city for an overnight port of call.

We are boarding Eclipse on Sunday, not in a suite, and have a boarding time of 10:30am. We’re able to go straight to our cabin, retrieve our Seapass card and drop off our bags. This is the way Celebrity has been doing embarkation since the return to service. Didn’t know about hauling our own bags to the room tho, might just try….that is if they make the same flight as us 🤷‍♀️😂🤞

Those parts work for me too, it’s the My Calendar part that’s not updating. And there doesn’t seem to be a refresh for that.

Those are the benefits if you book that class, not if you do a move up, as far as I’ve read anyway. Good luck!

It’s not you…welcome to Celebrity IT.

Yeah, don’t count on that. We’re scheduled to sail next weekend, checkin is competed and shows on the app but nothing else is displayed. Get a message that folio is unavailable and to contact Celebrity. Did that and was told that because Eclipse, our ship, hasn’t been fully revolutionized that the app doesn’t work properly…huh?? The rep said they’ve had many complaints re this, on our ship as well as Infinity. I’m hoping it works better once onboard but not holding out any hope. I’ve got copies of our purchases for proof once onboard in case of any issues. Definitely frustrating and not sure why a company as large as Celebrity can’t get something this simple to work properly.

We’re on the Eclipse departing next Sunday (11th) to Alaska. We’re in a regular veranda and will be eating mostly in the MDR although we do have two speciality dining reservations. Let me know if you have any specific questions and I’ll try and get back to you. We like the MDR for breakfast and usually eat at the Spa Cafe for lunch.

Questions re Annabelle’s…why do you say the dungeness sandwich is interesting? And when is dungeness season? We’ll be boarding eclipse next weekend for the final sailing and interested in whatever is in season…too late?

I’m on the Eclipe, the sailing prior to yours. Have had issues with the app and when I spoke to someone at Celebrity I was told that because the Eclipse hadn’t been fully revolutionized the app wasn’t working to it’s full potential yet. I was able to checkin but my purchases (speciality dining and hot glass class amongst other things) aren’t showing in my calendar on the app. I have an invoice showing proof of purchase which I’ll bring onboard just in case. I’m hoping it’ll all work fine once onboard. 🤷‍♀️🤞

You’ll need to either book a suite or a sunset veranda to get the traditional balcony. Glad you enjoyed the cruise otherwise!

I was under the impression that the Elevate package doesn’t include an upgrade of the wifi to streaming. Thought you needed the Indulge package for that. 🤷‍♀️

Yes, it’s now two bottles per person.
