You do have other benefits all Classic through Elite Plus. One complimentary scoop of gelato under Classic for example. The PDF is dated Aug 2022.

Our last Caribbean cruise was on Edge March 2019. The cruise was more about checking out the new ship. We only got off the ship at one stop. We are done with the Caribbean also.

I guest I could have been clearer. The OP was asking about "discounted drink and internet packages". To get those discounts you must call. See pdf below under Elite Plus "20% discount on drink package or 15% discount on premium drink package upgrade when purchased pre-cruise" https://www.celebritycruises.com/content/dam/celebrity/pdf/captains-club-tiers-and-benefits-chart.pdf

To get Elite discounts with Celebrity Captains Club. You or your TA must call Celebrity to get the discount. Cant be done on website or while on board.

You must have at least a Classic level with Celebrity Captians Club. When you book your cruise you have to ask for 1 category up. To get drink package or WiFi discounts. After booking you or your TA must call Celebrity and ask for them. You can pay for the upgrades with credit card or OBC you get from Celebrity. But must be done before your cruise. Added note if you have 100 shares of RCL you can get OBC depending on the length of your cruise. https://www.celebritycruises.com/content/dam/celebrity/pdf/captains-club-tiers-and-benefits-chart.pdf

We were just on Solstice Nov 5th. We dined in Blu and we were able to order off the MDR menu. We avoid the 2 tops near the windows. When I comes to the E class ships. We have only done Edge in a suite and Luminae had very limited food choices. As to Blu at least on Edge the window tables did not have a nice view. I was told that Celebrity did make changes to the view in Blu on one or other E Class ships.

We have sailed Alaska on many cruise lines. We cruised Alaska in Oct 2021 Seattle/Seattle on Millie, June 2022 Seward/Vancouver on Millie and Sept 2022 Seattle/Vancouver on Solstice. Personally Hubbard is my favorite glacier. I also like the ziplining at ISP. While we have not done the X's Hubbard Glacier Wilderness Exploration (small boat). I have talked to many suite guest that said it was great. You can see the small boat in the photo below at Hubbard glacier.

One of the decks has the window washing machine. Others dont like deck 12 because of noise from the Oceanview Bar above.

"Guests are only permitted to bring alcohol onboard under the following circumstances 1.) Embarkation day when each guest is permitted to bring onboard with them up to two (2) bottles of wine (which are subject to a corkage fee) per guest. A corkage fee does not apply to guests with the Classic Beverage Package or Premium Beverage Package. Security may inspect containers (including water bottles, soda bottles, mouthwash, canteens, etc.) at any time and will dispose of alcohol concealed in such container." My uncle bought 4 bottles of tequila on our tour in PV this month. Celebrity did not take the bottles when we returned to the ship. We new they might hold the bottles.

Great pic's. I saw the ones I always get. Saw some that I might try. My favorite dessert is creme brulee or the sphere. Just a thought have dessert in Luminae and have creme brulee sent to the suite.

This is from Summit Deck 11 Aqua cabins 1114 & 1116. What I remember is when Solstice Class added Aqua/Blu. Celebrity retro fit deck 11 to Aqua and added the dividers from the S Class builds.

So we have done 3 cruises this year. Two in sky suites and one in Aqua. Each cruise we got the heavy bags. In our Aquaclass cabin this month I did see lip balm on the bathroom counter. We did not get the white tote bag.

We were on the same cruise. We had a great time. It had been years since Celebrity has done Mexican Riviera. We had booked Millie, but the ship changed. We were able to keep our original cost for our Aqua cabins. Great service in Blu. For myself the Blu menu is fine, if we can order off the MDR menu also. I made 2 pieces of blown glass. Yes the clocks going back and forward was a pain. Oceanview Café was very good. We ate our lunches outside near the Oceanview Café Bar. Also drinks at 5pm at the Oceanview Café Bar before going to Blu. I was told we had 1300 guest on our cruise.

I agree with your post. Also, yes that Daniel Boulud Moroccan Chicken was just horrible.

The inside has the hallway and the balcony has a door in the suite. Re watch the video. It is not very clear, but he talks about it in the very beginning.

Our friends from the UK asked their butler for a kettle setup on our June Alaska cruise on Millie. It was not a problem.

Personally I like my cabin mid ship aft. We have stayed in a mid ship sky suite in the Edge. For me it is about location. E Class Retreat and Luminae are all the way forward. Sunset suites are all the way aft. With the S Class ships sunset suites are closer to the Retreat and Luminae.

We have sailed once on deck 11 on the Summit. We had cabins 1114 and 1116. I liked the location very much. Down the back stairs to the aft Bar or Oceanview Café. I would not book the cabins near the exit doors. Their is not much shade on the deck, if you dont get one of the aft Aqua cabins. You can open the dividers between the cabins.

We are in a Aqua A2. Starting bid for a CS was $550pp. Website calls it a Promo CS is $385pp.

I did hear about Andy and the Beyond today online.

Our 2 cruises this year had FoD meeting at the Martini Bar.

Here is the breakfast table we were given to use on the Edge in a mid ship sky suite.

2 of our last 4 cruises we did not have PDP, so both times I had our TA call and upgrade our drink packages and internet with our CC discount.
