  1. We go on around 1 cruise a year and have been on Carnival, NCL and Royal so no high levels for us. We are never in the cabin so we book a inside cabin
  2. On Royal, we are looking at the Oasis. For Celebrity, it is the Reflection and Equinox. I understand that the Oasis is much bigger than the other 2. For you comment about Celebrity having a more adult quiet vibe, does that mean that it turns into a sleepy ghost town after 9:00? We are looking for things to do after going to the late show.
  3. On Royal, I have sailed on Freedom and going on Harmony in Dec. I know that the size of the ships of Royal are much bigger. That is not a big concern for me.
  4. What about a nightlife? Especially after going to the late show. On Royal, there is a sing along piano bar that is fun along with other bars and activities going on . I want to know if Celebrity quiets down quite a bit later in the evening. I don't want to walk around a ghost ship with everyone in bed. Of course, if there is a port the next day, people may go to bed earlier since they have to get up early at the port. I am talking about when the next day is a sea day and you can sleep in a little bit. With the entertainment, especially the live music, what type of music is being played? Contemporary, 80's, classic, oldies, jazz, etc.
  5. We are starting to look at some cruises for Feb and have it down to Royal and Celebrity. We have sailed on Royal several times but not on Celebrity. Wanted to see if people can give their opinions about the 2 cruiselines. Looking for information to be able to compare food, entertainment and appearances, etc. Would be helpful if there is feedback from people that have been on both cruiselines. I know that I will get responses from the Royal diehards which I would love to hear but not negative comments about Celebrity just to put them down. I am going to post the same thing on the Celebrity Forum to get their "side" of the story. Thank you

Wanted to see if people can give their opinions about the 2 cruiselines. I know that Celebrity is a step up but wanted to know in what way (food, entertainment, service, etc.) Would be helpful if there is feedback from people that have been on both cruiselines.

  7. Was is Revolutionized? Is that the same as refurbished? I know that Reflection was in dry dock in 2022 and Equinox in 2019.
  8. Hello, I have not yet sailed on Celebrity. Been on Carnival, NCL and Royal. Looking at 2 cruises in Feb. Trying to decide between an 8 day on the Reflection (ABC islands) and a 9 day on Equinox (ABC islands and Grand Cayman). I was able to get very good prices for both cruises. Small difference in price between the 2. Which ship do people prefer? Please give pros/cons for either. Thank you for your help!
  9. Hello, I am looking at 2 different cruises in Feb. They both go to the same ports (Great Stirrup Cay, Puerta Plata, St. Thomas and Tortola) Encore leaves from Miami and Escape leaves from Port Canaveral. Looking at an inside cabin on either ship and the price difference is only $50. Wanted to get opinions on which ship to go on. Would be nice if there was anyone that was on both ships and could give pros/cons for each ship. Thanks for your help
  10. Tey did a great tour. Well worth the price. Saw many things and had a great tour guide.
  11. I just looked and there are several rental car companies in La Marque. 17 miles away. Would it make sense to take an uber there and get the car and have it until we need to be at the airport?
  12. Hello, I am looking for options to rent a car after getting off the cruise since our flight does not leave until 4:30 pm and don't feel like sitting in the airport for 6 hours. I looked and there is an Enterprise on the island but they are closed on Sunday. Thanks for the help
  13. Hey! I'm on the cruise with you... See you in a few days
  14. We did the tour a few years ago. Definitely worth doing the rum tasting option. You try many different types which included a few very expensive one's.
  15. We have a tour booked for next week with RV Tours. They customized a tour for my group doing what we wanted to see. Great communication and very fair price. Contact Rene @ https://www.rvtours.info/
  16. use WhatsApp. I have a tour booked with him next week and he has responded to my messages. may take him a day to get back to you
  17. Check out RV Tours. They have several different tours to choose from. Very good prices. https://www.rvtours.info/
  18. How can 4100 be accurate? The capacity of the ship is 3963 (double occupancy) per the NCL website
  19. We are sailing on the Getaway in 21 days. Last night went to check in at 12:00 AM and it was not active. Finally, at 1:00 AM I was able to go in and do the check in. Must have been on a different time zone
  20. We have booked for next month for our stop in Puerta Plata an tour with RV Tours. I liked that he was willing to customize the tour to what we wanted to do. Very good price. https://www.rvtours.info/
  21. Next month we will be on the Getaway for a 10 day cruise. Anyone know how NCL will be changing the daily activities and show schedule to turn the posted dailies into 10 days? Will anything new be added or some things repeated?
  22. Check out RV Tours. We are booked with this tour company for our visit in DR next month. They were able to personalize our tour with what we wanted to do. Very good communications and a very good price. https://www.rvtours.info/
  23. Here you go. The owner's name is Rene. Let him know that Howard told you to contact him. He will take care of you https://www.rvtours.info/
  24. We were able to swap out going to the Rum Factory instead of going to the Cigar factory. Contact him and you might be able to set something specific up on what you want to do. He is very flexible.
  25. I have seen conflicting reports from people that say it is not unlimited appetizers, sides and desserts. Only 1 of each when you use one of the specialty dining credits. which is it?
