That sounds lovely but the website keeps saying nothing is available on the night before our cruise (24/3/17). Surely it's not booked out already! It would be just my luck [emoji20]

Email or ring them. They sometimes don't have rates for next year yet. :):)

According to the Celebrity web site "The Suite Class experience will also include a daily high-end afternoon tea service served in the guest's spacious and beautifully-designed suite." Does anybody have any experience with the tea service? I haven't seen anything posted about it.

The Butler would arrive at the door with a tray of cakes etc so you can choose what you like. Even when we were out for the day the butler would leave us a tray of my favourite picks and I always felt bad when I didnt eat them. We had Cappuccinos to same as we had delivered each morning at 7am.:):)

Thank you all, I booked Omni car

Good Choice we use Omni Car in Sydney all the time for transfers etc. not expensive and good vehicles.:)

Loved the Coffee delivery every morning at 7am from Elivis our butler on Reflection. Wish we could take him home he was so thoughtful.:)

Having done the train to Rome a few times, I have to ask what is a "private train"?

I can't imagine! I can see a private car or bus, but a train?

How does that work?

It is a train that you book in the excursions on the ship"Rome On Your Own" the same as using a coach shuttle. It drops you at St Peters and you meet back at the station at a certain time to go back to the ship. We have used it on 2 other Europe cruises. The price is more expensive than the normal train of course. Mainly used it as port is far from city and our friends were worried about getting back on time.

Has anyone used the Private Train into Rome excursion recently as can't find it on my cruise May 31. Have used it previously.

We always go for the forward Aqua cabins due to overhang. We usual get 1521 or 23 no noise and no overhang. 😀

We were on a private tour in Istanbul. Had just left the ship area when trouble started there was tear gas being let off and crowds surrounding our van our driver acted quickly and turned off air con etc. There we shop windows being smashed. That was scary enough and they were protesting over a park being built on. I would rather miss a port and be safe. :)

God I hope it don't be like that for us, I'll be a bit green I'd say, I'd be more than green, lol I was never on a ship before this will be my first,

Thanks for all the updates your great for keeping us posted,

Don't worry We had a big storm last year around this time didn't feel a thing and we were on smaller ship.

Thank you!

Wrinkled clothes I can live with, but not my hair without straighteners lol!

I have used my straightener to get wrinkles out of clothes it works :)

Hotel Jazz stayed there last 3 years:)

Will be on Allure in May 2015 and in a Suite. Can the concierge book specialty restaurants for you or is it best to book in advance before the cruise?:)

We did private tour of Ephesus with another couple off the ship. We told our guide we didn't want to go to leather factory etc. We went to a local restaurant for lunch which was great. He was the best guide we have ever had and worth every cent.:)

In a related matter, we would like to use the cameras on our iPhones only! AT&T has instructed to simply put our iPhones in airplane mode and there would be no data used or possible data charges and also no roaming fees. Can anyone confirm this?

 

Thanks

Just turn off Data Roaming:)

Not searching for cruises but tried to change my password all I got was a picture of the blue ocean. Interesting but typical of the website :confused:

All my cruises have been on Celebrity and loved the food and the service. I have also stayed in a suite and the perks are so much better butler, free specialty restaurants etc. Will be going on our first Royal Caribbean Cruise on Allure in May in a Crown Loft Suite which cost more than Celebrity so it will be interesting to see the difference but I am sure we will enjoy ourselves whatever the differences:)

Yes same thing happened to me last week when I paid for May cruise. The money came out of credit card and my cruise documents came 2 days later to my email. So I wouldn't worry.:)

The ATM on board is in Euros when in Europe. The fee was 6$.

May I ask what type of dining you guys have? Has anyone been offered traditional?

We are on the May 31st cruise on Allure and have 6pm dining waitlisted for 6.30pm. On my booking page it lists early and late dining options.:)

If you want to be a smart ass go and be smart somewhare else, *******,

Good quote gave me a laugh this rainy morning in Sydney :):)

Hi Harry loving your cruise review and great pictures of Allure we are going end of May. Just a question are all the power points in the cabin for USA or is there a European one as well. On Celebrity they have both. Thank You.:)

Last time when we left the ship in Barcelona our driver was waiting but without his vehicle. We had to walk to his car but it was a short walk and we were hurrying to get to airport. I am now going to check for our transfer this May from Barcelona.:)

I have used it to get Euro on another ship and it was $6 but got out whatever the limit. But my Ozforex card was already in Euro.

We usually choose Celebrity to cruise with and have a suite. We are going on Allure after the dry dock on May 31 in a Sky Loft Suite. I am not liking the reviews on food and service, but I will be going there to enjoy the cruise an all the Suite Perks ;) whatever they will be:D

Can anyone tell me how the Casino on Celebrity Reflection compares to the casino on RCL's Liberty (or any Freedom Class ship)?

 

Have cruised lots on RCL but only once on Celebrity (Constellation). The casino was very small and cramped. So many players around the Black Jack tables they pushed right into the slot players nearby.

 

We would like to do a Christmas cruise and the Reflection is a very good price right now (for a Christmas cruise) however 7 days on a ship with a cramped casino -- not good.

 

Thanks for helping

Kathy

My husband plays poker and he thought Casino was not cramped. Reflection is a great ship and a lot bigger and newer than Constellation:)
