Can’t wait to hear all about your cruise. Bye bye dry January 🥂

I booked in November 2023. This week I asked for Status Match and was told no Status Match for 2024 cruises. 

Can we use OBC in the casino?

I am a long time X cruiser and think the drink coupons are a better idea. 
Dont moan about it here, write to Celebrity.

Hi Jim,

 have always followed along with your travels. So glad you are considering Oceania. I light their O class ships. I plan on booking the Vista next year. I am a light sleeper so hopefully the thin walls won’t be a problem. 
I only have one more cruise on Celebrity booked for this summer in Alaska. 
I will also look into the Regent Grandeur. 
I still hold out hope for Celebrity after 35 cruises with them. 
We were in. CS suite las month and had great butler and service. 
Only downside is we don’t care for the menu in Luminae and enjoy Blu more. 
Cheers, Heather 

Have the complimentary and pay extra wine lists been updated? 

We are stopping in Kauai in April on Explora Journeys ship.

Paul, thanks for the review. Hopefully you shared your thoughts with Heike. 

I’m just short of 2000 points and Elite Plus. 36 cruises and not many in suites.
I would like to see 1500 points and above get the classic drink package. 

Our good friends were on the Vista in a PH 1 and raved about it. They have also been on all the luxury lines. They were on last month for the Christmas cruise. They said only a few children onboard. 

We have cruised most of the premium and luxury lines. In my experience Seabourn has the friendliest passengers. Of course things change and things could be different. 

Sorry,bored 

Our close friends just came off the Oceania Vista and raved about it. 
Hopefully we won’t be board on our Hawaii cruise on EJ as we do enjoy traditional cruises.We

 have been on 12 different lines and ready to try something new.

There will be taxis and Uber available.

I am very interested in comparison with Regents Grandeur. 

Hi Jim,

We have sailed on all the lines that have been mentioned above. We are looking for something new with great food. We have booked Explora Journey for April leaving from Honolulu.

They are a new cruise line owned by MSC. Check out their website. 
I think you would enjoy. Cheers, Heather 

Eclipse is in Northern Europe 

How long does it last? I’m watching now. Is there a questionnaire after ?

I think Heike will be on our cruise.

We are on the hnl to Yvr cruise. We love the sea days but the nine day cruise was enough for us. We have done this cruise many times with Celebrity.

So classic is now $13 a glass and premium is up to $20 a glass ? I can’t keep up with the changes.😟

We were on the Eclipse last week in a CS and Ronald was our Butler. Wonderful service!

I am enjoying following you along. We have tried most of the luxury and premium lines.

 We have only one X cruise to Alaska this summer and will hold off booking X until things improve. 
Our next cruise will be in April on the Explora Journeys. They have only been operating since August. The reviews were shaky to start but are improving very quickly. 
Heike Berdos is the hotel manager. We have cruised with her when she was with Azamara. 
She was wonderful. So excited to try a brand new cruise line. 
Jim, I think you would really enjoy this line so check it out. Their price range is very close to the other luxury lines. Cheers, Heather 

Can you please find out how long Heike will be on board?

Can you still book cruise only with no Simply More?
