This link that was previously shared earlier in this post does not have that disclaimer that I can see. https://www.celebritycruises.com/things-to-do-onboard/staterooms/suite-class/royal-suite

I think the problem is as usual Celebrity website isn't clear because the same page for the Royal Suite with this same section has the * but then is missing the disclaimer below that section.

If you look at my last post you will see even if you book with a special fare which is what I assume to be no perks or a Move up they do state the 4 perks are not then included.

The link below is for ALL Retreat benefits, I think the little added disclaimer is missing from the Royal Suite page. https://www.celebritycruises.com/things-to-do-onboard/staterooms/suite-class

Where is the screen shot of the RS Moveup description? I am only seeing links to what the Retreat includes.

But I believe you already had the premium beverage and wifi with your Sky Suite, that is why you still got it with the Penthouse. If they only have the classic beverage then that is all they get with move up even to a Royal.

Also just to expand the same rule is in my fir single passengers in a suite. Also those in a suite can bring guests to Luminae for a fee if there is availability. So it isn’t against the rules.

Are you seriously worried about a warranty on a $35 toiletry bag?

I think you are over stressing. Your itinerary has only 3 seas days and all the rest are long port days. You probably will not even use your balcony that much. As for storage minimize what you plan to bring if that is a concern. I have never on any ship had an issue with storage, and I sailed on Millie years ago in Asia for 14 nights in an Inside room.

I have had the burger at the Mast on Equinox and I thought it was pretty good. That was over a year ago. Recently on Beyond I thought it was not so good. The Luminae burger was very good.

We started using air tags for checked bags. Haven't needed them yet but good peace of mind.

Sorry maybe you meant LAP not LAPS??😁

How did you swim laps in the retreat pool on Beyond? That pool is not very big, you can probably push off and hit the other side.

I also do not believe they have all availability on the app. I think they save some bookings for suites and onboard reservations.

Yes sorry, when I clicked my link for my cruise in October nothing happened the first time. I just tried again and it is working.

If you bought a dining package you cannot book your date and time in advance. If you are just purchasing a dinner then on the Celebrity website in your cruise planner you can purchase and select date and time at that time. I do not think the app lets you do much in advance of the cruise.

This is what is on the Celebrity website, I would be very surprised if there were not servers on this deck. They also have a dining section to order lunch.

As far as I know you can still easily get a prices adjustment before final payment if the price goes down. As far as retreat didn't you already ask this on another post? They have drink service and I would assume it is probably better than any other bar on the ship. Again how much you use this area is going to depend on your itinerary. Asia cruises are very port intensive with long days. You will probably then only use it on sea days.

I still do not understand this, the Itinerary will also impact the price greatly. So just comparing the same ship with any sailing is not going to be completely relevant. Also the length of the cruise can change the price, sometimes it is harder for them to sell longer cruises so the price can be better.

I agree, either they need to decide where they want to go and then depending on that the most important thing would be the itinerary with the least amount of sea days. If you are cruising in Asia I would assume you want to see the most that you can and ship should not matter.

You are going to get so many differences in price based on cruise length, ports, demand ect. You need to just decide what you are comfortable with. You are the only one who can decide what is important to you. I think you are really over stressing about what cabin to pick.

You also need to consider the SS gives an additional $400 obc per room, you get premium drinks not classic and more Captains club points per night. Also for 12 nights that might not be too bad. We are doing Japan this October in the SS on Millie and can't wait. Another nice option on Millie is you can order in the Luminae from both their menu and the main dining menu. I have heard they will also consider allowing orders from Blu.

What cruise are you looking at? Is the $5000 for 2 passengers, how many nights?
