Within the app you can change the sailing date. Eclipse starts cruising out of Vancouver BC on May 21st. The menus should be the same for the whole Alaska season. I just checked and Celebrity has not listed the menus yet on the app for May 21st. Even after I updating the app. You would think that X would have the menus listed as it is less than a week away.

We did not have any problems last year on BA Sea-Lhr. I'm looking now to book Sea to Lhr for Christmas. We fly BC, the cost to reserve seats are over $100 pp per flight. Some seats cost more than others. 1st Class seat assignment is included in airfare. The end of Jan we met up with friends in Mexico. Their BA non stop flight from Gatwick was delayed at least 6 hours. On their way home, BA had to put them up in a hotel in Cancun. Problems at Gatwick. Then in April, BA London to Argentina. BA had more problems. BA moved them to a flight a day early, so BA had to pay for their extra night at their hotel in Argentina. While I prefer BA, we might go VA.

Is this bank holiday in the US or in Europe? Less children on cruises longer than 7 nights. We really dont see that many children on Celebrity. Seem to be more children on the Caribbean sailings. We dont cruise the Caribbean anymore.

As to the Aqua Sky Suites. We wont use the spa amenities that come with the suite. For myself it would be for location. Personally I like deck 6 on the M Class ships. Close to Luminae as they close by 9:30 for breakfast. The S Class ships the Aqua SS for us is a great location. Up one deck for snacks and under the carpeted area of the OVC. When it comes to pricing. M Class when I was looking to book a suite the Aqua SS were about $500 more pp. S Class the cost was about $1000 more pp. M Class, I might spend the extra money. S Class no way, with most SS under the OVC or all the way aft. We now book CS suite on the S Class ships. Video from Millie. The suite with the large balcony is 6132. VID_20180327_083201420.mp4

Here are photos of past desserts on X.

Thanks, we have been doing 7 night sailings since covid. We have a 11 night cruise booked for June 2024. Our next cruise I might ask in advance for the orb.

The chocolate orb in Luminae. I have not seen in it on the menu in over a year.

Allergic to seafood or lobster? I dont remember their being lobster. I dont remember having to pay extra for the tower like the 1st time we ate at The Porch. There are food options without seafood. DH had a wrap. I think our starter was lobster bisque.

We like to arrive about 11:30 to noon. Lunch in Luminae can be as early as 11:30. But, on our cruises Luminae seem to be open from Noon to 1:30. I left my wallet at home once. I went home and got my wallet. Showing back up at 2pm. Checking in later was really nice.

Q. Does everyone in my stateroom need to buy a Drink Package? A. Any guest wishing to purchase the Drink Package must do so for all other guests of legal drinking age in the same stateroom. The following exceptions can be made, giving the guests the option of purchasing the Zero Proof package instead. Exceptions: • Children 12 years old and under: will NOT be required to purchase a Zero drink package. • Teens – A Zero Proof drink package will be added. • 13 -17 years old (Europe, Asia, Australia) • 13 - 20 years old (USA) • Pregnant guests – A Zero Proof drink package will be added. • Recovering alcoholic, religious request, or medical issue that doesn’t allow guests to consume alcohol. – A Zero Proof drink package will be added. https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Celebrity/General_Info/CEL_Beverage_Package_FAQs.pdf

We have cruised Glacier Bay, Endicott Arm and Hubbard Glacier. I like Hubbard see photos.

I have heard of others getting off the ship in Victoria with a overnight bag. Flying (seaplane) to Vancouver BC and spending the night in a hotel. Spending the night in a hotel breaks the b2b. There is also a bus/ferry from Victoria to Vancouver BC. Other option is to end your cruise in Vancouver and leave on one of the Celebrity ships out of Vancouver other than The Edge.

There might be an issue with doing a b2b. You will be starting and ending in a US city. Check into the The Passenger Vessel Services Act . Talk to your TA and or Celebrity.

If I remember correctly it is 1605.

We live in the Seattle area and we are sailing out of Vancouver BC in Sept.

The following photos are from 6132 looking forward.

I was able to fix my MIL's missing points. I knew the sailing date and who was in the cabin with her. Somehow my MIL was listed with her middle name as her 1st name.

If you look at deck 8 on Millie or Summit you will see that the library's is gone. Replaced by 2 inside cabins. The changed happen with the Celebrity's Revolution. Photo of the library cart from The Edge 2019.

We have cruised Asia 4 times, 3 times with Celebrity. Personally I liked Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia over Vietnam. So I would pick Millie, 14 Jan 2025. I like Millie over Solstice for Asia. While Vietnam is nice the tours where long 8 hours or more.

We sailed on Millie last summer. Seward to Vancouver BC. I rented a car and we stayed in Seward for 2 days before the cruise. It was a nice vacation.

I use a label marker for last name, then add to printed LT.

I did hear that Butlers get an alert when you check in.
