We upgrade every time. My spouse like KJ Chard and Mer So chard so no choice here. I like Belvedere and good burbons so no choice here. We have also and I cannot believe I am saying this but Avian water is better. And I agree with last post I like trying different wines at dinner. 

yes, that is what I said.

Last Friday I went to check on a new cruise on X Site. I went to CC tab and much to my surprise my points went from 3010 to 0, that's right 0. Having just been called by Celebrity last week and congratulated for turning Zenith. We then booked a free cruise over the weekend. Now we have 0. I was surprised. So yesterday day my spouse call to book another cruise and while on she told CC rep about points and she was going to take care of. Then I checked last nigh and again early this morning but still zero. Then I went to Facebook this morning and saw a solution. Someone, Nancy, suggested to go to settings on X site and delete your CC# and reenter number and it worked, all points returned. So if you account goes to 0, do not panic try doing this suggestion. 

another it and marketing combo that is awful. I do not think they ever test anything before putting it out to their loyal customers. 

At least when the try things aboard ships they generally test on ships like the summit or other ship to test reactions and interests. One good that I saw tested on summit was silent disco. it was expanded to all ships in a year. 

On our recent equinox cruise 10 days, we had 4 silent disco, a mama Mia sing along at 830 and a queen sing along early as well. there were other white out and sail away parties out on deck at 10. No special outfits. Great fun at all. 

It said it on the email. 

Just got on site. All it is a marketing ad. No need for further comments.

I did do another account but that did not work. Until this morning when I received an email to verify my email. Then I tried to click on account and it said temporarily unable to connect. Then I click on second link and that did not work either. 

I believe this only went to Zenith and then will roll out to all CC members. 

Yesterday we received an email from Celebrity asking us to join this new celebrity experience. I think tried to register and they did not recognize my email. As we all know X systems are not the best. So I stopped trying. This morning I received another email confirming my registration. So I clicked on the link. Now nothing on the page. Has any other Zenith tried to register or link to the site? For the record, I tried on my Mac and my iPad. The experience looks interesting, so if someone was able to get connected I would be interested on what you think. 

Hi, we brought large clamps used for paper reports. We saw this suggestion on cruise critics. Works well when you have a curtain problem. Every room is different depending on ship and age of curtains. 

I took survey. Terrible survey, but I was so angry at them for treatment during Covid and loosing 800 dollars. The interface between X and BOA is none existent. So I will be cancelling this card after all charges clear. 

Just off the Silhouette last week and the Equinox last month. Silly had it three times and one in the retreat. Equinox had it at least 5 times on a 10 day cruise 

We were on Equinox in Oct in MDR and Equinox in July in Blu(our waiter got anything off MDR Menu). We usually do Blu on most cruises. When in MDR in Oct we had a great table for whole cruise, outstanding service and great food. We like the Blue service and view in restaurant. It really is a toss up depending on what you like and table you get. In May we were on edge blu and that was not good, no view, and service was not as good. I would either do retreat or mdr on Edge class. M class is another story, I agree with others Blu or MDR is good. Any choice is great other than E class Blu, not worth it. It depends on what you are willing to pay and what table and service you get. 

It is supply and demand. Aqua is preferred on S class ships and not so on E class ships and so so on M class. So price diff between CC and A is affected because of that. 

We once thought we would never get to Zenith, but during our next cruise starting on Nov 21 on the Silhouette we will cross the 3k point mark and become Zenith. So there is hope. I have no idea what will happen and when, but we will enjoy the benefits on the next cruise in January .

We will be sailing on the Silhouette on Nov 21 and have a lot of OBC, does anyone know if they have replenished stock in the APPLE ILounge yet. When we were on Equinox in July the person in the lounge said they were expecting stock in September. Thanks in advance for the information. 

I use promo chips on every cruise. I usually do 100 dollars at a time, last cruise I did 150 at a time. all $1 chips. At the roulette table you bet $5 minimum. Also, you cannot play red/black, you must use real cash $5 for that match play for elite on up.

I have been told on several ships that you have to use elite plus minutes before using the free minutes. On one of our cruises used the minutes first because they are for the fast internet and could watch a game and use FaceTime.. Then I used the all internet, regular speed rest of cruise.

Maybe it is related to new wifi? at least for al.

Internet discount can be done on cruise. 

Sale price will not. 

In this time of celebrity I do not think it is worth it. you can buy elevate and get Bev package etc. if you do not every get the beverage package then it is a different story. 

I always use computer to cash in points. Never had an issue with that part of program. I used for both X and RCL cruises. Sorry for not answering original question. 

We were on the Equinox last month. We left in Terminal 25 and returned to 18. Infinity was in 25. I always use the parking garage. I have a walker. I drop off my wife and luggage and go park. I take my time and it usually takes 15 minutes. Wife gets a wheelchair for me and meets me at entrance. On the return last time my wife and I got a porter which takes us to the curb. I then went to shuttle van and I was only one on and he took me to parking garage. Took 5 minutes and I went back to wife and luggage. 

I have also experienced many problems with this card. I was planning on getting rid of the card and then they, X, inadvertently used it when I was on the last cruise. I did not even give it to them as the X card to use. now I must keep for another couple of months until it clears.

The main issue was when I had several cruises canceled in March of 2020. At that time I had over $800 dollars of OBC credit on two cruises. Much of it was lost when the cruises were cancelled. I spent hours of phone time with CC, Boa, and X's department that handled cancellation problems. I vowed never to use the card again. Again this year, a cruise on RCL was cancelled due to us getting Covid. On this cruise we had $150 of OBC that had to be moved back to our credit card as a credit. However, they then took credit back as to the amount of the cruise value because the cruise was cancelled and we took cash. I know they have the right to do but they never tell you anything about what would happen. Lets just say the process is not one. 

The auto tipping for specialty dinning started a few months ago. I was on the equinox last month. We went to Tuscan and Murano and in both cases we did not get a bill. Charges are now just charged to your room with gratuity included. We booked on board and got our CC discount at least. I do know that to get special price of CC you must call ahead of time, otherwise you will not get it. If you go to restaurant or GR you might get it but they could turn it down. 

We have a cruise next month and I booked an excursion and they charged me on my credit card instead of using our OBC which I did not give them. They had it from our last cruise I guess. We have not checked in yet. I will have to call or cancel to straighten it out. All I know it is not right to do this.
