Check your sailings to see if your cruise qualifies! 3rd and 4th guest in same stateroom sail for free (just pay taxes and fees) Just saved $2400 for my upcoming cruise. Time to book another one with my savings 😂

Got mine too! I’m one point away from Elite now 👍🏼 Stay warm today! Signed, fellow Ottawa resident shivering today

Darn… I don’t even see them in my history. I’m checking to see if they show up in my family’s history because I added all our numbers to watch and I wonder if they caused a glitch? I watched it twice to make sure I got the points 😂

I wonder if I don’t have my points yet because we are in Canada… any non-Americans receive their points yet? I’ve been having issues with the website staying in “visiting from Canada” mode so hoping it is just an IT issue and I’ll be given the points soon. 6 points shy of becoming Elite before our next cruise so i REALLY need this and hopefully another opportunity for one point soon!!

May I ask what drinks are available to be taken from Elite hour? For example, is there a limit on how many bottles of water we can request?

We just got off 14 nights on the Silhouette and I can’t say enough amazing things about the kids club. The first was a 4 nights cruise, which had 44 kids ages 0-17 and the second was a 10 nights cruise, which had 22 kids ages 0-12. Depending on the number of kids in each age group, they will combine them. My 3yo was with my 8yo at all times. We had gotten off the Disney Dream before boarding the Silhouette and while my kids loved the Disney kids club (due to the Disney experience aspect) they LOVED the Celebrity kids club experience more. The activities were well planned and the staff really got to know them well (remembered their names, what they liked to do etc) Solstice has two outdoor pools: one is the “family pool” which is 3ft-4ft deep. We did Alaska on Solstice in 2017 and Hawaii in 2018 when our son was 2. Had a great time! If your kids don’t need all the bells and whistles, Celebrity is a great cruise line for families 🙂

Hello, Concierge guarantee is now cheaper than the veranda guarantee that I have booked. I am past final payment. i know in the past I was able to change categories as long as it was more expensive. Is this still the case? Has anyone been able to change categories after final payment if the price is LOWER than your booked category? TIA!

Thank you for answering!

Hello, Hoping someone can answer my questions 🙂 1. If you have a drink package, can you sit and just order drinks? Are they covered (up to the allowable amount)? 2. My husband, kids and I will have the dining package but my sister will not. Can she still sit with us and order a la carte? 3. With the dining package, do you have to order the fixed menu? (On Silhouette) 4. Can my children order food to go using their dining package even if we (the adults) don’t dine with them? Reason is because hubby and I want to dine at Murano one of the nights for a date night 🥰 5. Is there a separate children’s menu or do my kiddos get to order the same as adults? Thanks again for your assistance!

Did the drink packages/internet/excursions go on sale?

I’m sorry to say this happened to me as well months ago. It took weeks to sort out and executive office had to get involved. All the payments/FCC/OBV have now been applied but none of my current invoices show that I have the all inclusive perks. I am hoping and praying everything is ok on their end and I won’t be at guest services all night to try and sort this out.

Flying seems to be so stressful these days! Can you share your recent experiences booking through Celebrity? Specifically, in the FAQ, it states: “If the flight gets cancelled or delayed and Celebrity Cruises is unable to get the guest to the ship, we will offer a Future Cruise Credit and refund the cost of the flight.” I would like to know if you or anyone have had any issues having them honor this policy. Thank you!

Is this a new policy? It happened to me when I changed my booking to a new sail date and I called them and they reapplied it… this was about a month ago.

Yes, I will call to get the price reductions before final payment. I meant that I will give them a call after final payment and request that a new FCC be provided so that I don’t end up requesting it after every price reduction.

Thank you. Will give them a call after final payment in case there are further reductions…

Thank you. It is an active booking that this has happened to. I was wondering if I needed to do anything or if the negative amount will automatically be issued as FCC

Anyone use their FCC to pay for the cruise in full, but applied price reductions which has now resulted in a negative balance? Will they issue a new FCC for the negative balance? Or will it be converted to OBC? TIA!

Same thing happens to me RIGHT after I changed our dining from anytime dining to early sitting. Funny enough, I made the change to 2 other staterooms for the same cruise and there were no issues. I called Celebrity and they confirmed that all discount codes and OBC was dropped from the booking. From now on, I will never make or add changes to the booking online!

Hello, I was advised that it is $20USD plus 20% gratuity per day to upgrade the package onboard and that I can request my captain’s club discount. I thought in order to get the discount applied, I have to do it before we sail? Please advise and I will call back if I need to… Thank you!

As a family with young kids who prefer Celebrity ships, this is fantastic news because we were sailing with RC exclusively because of Cococay! We LOVE that there are so many choices of beaches and a pool (without having to pay) and the food options are great. Once the adults-only section is open, I’m sure it will be a favourite among Celebrity cruisers too 🥰 As a RCI investor, I think this is fantastic news because it will encourage other families like mine to sail on Celebrity. We don’t like “amusement park” ships and prefer to stick with one brand due to loyalty status.

We haven’t sailed yet but I booked hubby and I in a 4 person balcony room so everyone will sleep in the balcony room and the inside room will be our closet and bathroom 😂 Unlike Royal, Celebrity doesn’t charge more for the 3/4 passenger cabins so there is no price difference if there is only 2 passengers booked 👍🏼 I believe they allow this as long as there is availability

Unfortunately, I was told no by everyone I spoke to. I ended up booking a balcony room with the AI for myself and hubby and kids across the hall in an inside with the cruise only rate (age 7 and 3). This still worked out cheaper than 4 in a cabin with AI. I also priced out booking 4 in a cabin (cruise only rate) and then adding drink pkg etc and that came up the highest. At least with two cabins we will have two bathrooms which is a plus 👍🏼

Oh interesting!!! So there are no backdrops or photos done at ports anymore?

Hello, I only see an option for a private photo session. Does Celebrity still offer a package for regular photos? Do they still have photographers set up each night/roaming around the ship? if you can let me know how much photos or packages were onboard, it’ll be much appreciated! thank you!

Hello, are we able to go to the same restaurant for the 2 dinners that is included in this package? Is Le Petit Chef included as one of the choices? Specifically for those who have sailed on the Silhouette: which restaurant do you recommend for lunch? Which restaurant for dinner? We are travelling with 2 kids 🙂 Thank you!
