MAMAFIX

Just tapped through sleeve

We just hand the card and lanyard to staff, no need to take it out. Makes it easier to spot yours at bars 😉

Can anyone tell me if there are electric outlets at the bed?

Be careful what you put in your valet bags- we used it from Miami in February of 2019 and our luggage was left in Miami in a warehouse. Don’t pack anything you need first thing Monday morning when reality rears it’s ugly head and you have to go back to work😞. We got our luggage delivered by Fedex on Wednesday from our Sunday flight.

We have a cheap knock off of a go pro. Campark ACT 74. You can get on Amazon for $40! I suggest getting a wrist strap that floats for it. I think they are around $6 on Amazon.

Thanks for the tip!

Great review!  Great pictures!  What kind of camera for the snorkel Picts?

Choose the button that almost looks like a fork and knife and you get the dining options with menus 

Don’t forget that flavored spirits like Fireball are not bourbon, they are blended whiskey. Cruising is not the place to expect good bourbon. On our last cruise we did not upgrade to premium beverage because of the slim picking for bourbon. Once the Woodford Double began to be available we spent less than the upgrade cost per day and just paid for premium bourbon when the had it. About $2.00 a drink if I remember correctly and we came out ahead😉. For good bourbon, Kentucky is the place to vacation. 

Seek out the Beverage Manager and ask for Woodford Double Oak. It took three days into our August cruise, but it did appear. Haven’t been Blantons in about 5 years on a ship. 😬

We have had Clickson on two cruises and he is great!

I would love to have access to your map - karenmerica0512 at gmail. Thank you so much for your effort!

Nice up fit with doors!

There will be plenty more to eat if you pass on the romaine😉

Really hard to read your post with that font. Hard on old eyes

Does the shower have a door or dreaded curtain ?

They have doors😁👏🏻👏🏻

I am thinking that if Flights By Celebrity offered it, they will make it happen

Not this year. We were on for the month of January and the drill was at 4:45 on both cruises.

We have a flight by celebrity that does arrive in San Juan til 4:30.  What can we expect?

If you have the classic package and are thinking about upgrading, you should check the bourbon available before you do. Our last cruise they pulled out one bottle of Woodford Double Oak on day 5, when I complained to a beverage supervisor. It was cheaper to pay the difference for two days than to pay $12.00 plus per day for Makers, but that is my personal choice - and I have about 150 bottles or so as well😋

We were on the Summit in August and the bourbon selection was very sorry. On day five they had Woodford Double Oak in the shops for sale but not in any bar. Nothing else on their list is close to premium in my opinion. I complained to a beverage manager who happened to be in the shop area and a bottle amazingly appeared in one bar, but on future sailings we will always check the bourbon selection before upgrading to premium beverages. It is a much better deal to just pay the upcharge for whatever they happen to have than be disappointed when none is to be found. 

Last January on the Eclipse I just asked the cabin steward once I got on board and he brought distilled water. I understand that the refurbishment has added electric outlets near head of bed for those ships already done. Hope so - on the Summit in August 😍😎🥳

Absolutely 😎

We have had no problem with packing condiments. Once we packed a bottle of olive brine in a carryon and it took a few minutes to convince them it wasn’t wine😁

With the recent (or future since it goes into effect Jan. 2) increase in gratuities someone on one of our Roll Calls asked about the breakout for where those gratuities go so I found this list someone posted.

 

In looking at it again I noticed the "Aqua Attendant".

 

We've been sailing in Aqua for years and I have never seen or heard from an "Aqua Attendant".

 

Does anyone have a clue what this is?

 

 

 

Looks like it is your cabin attendant in a Aqua class cabin. Gratuities in Aqua .50 more than the others.

On Solstice, Equinox, Eclipse and Silhouette only AquaClass and higher rooms have handheld shower units. ALL other categories have fixed showerheads unless they are ADA compliant accessible rooms. On Reflection all cabins/suites have handhelds.

 

 

 

IMHO the biggest miss in the bathroom design on the first 4 Solstice class vessels was the inclusion of fixed showerheads vs handhelds.

Agree! Thanks!

Does anyone out there remember if the balcony cabins have a hand held shower head? Kinda small detail but folks seem to be able to answer any question[emoji4]
