fozzybear1980 Posted April 28, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Hi everyone, I was hoping someone else would start a thread for this transatlantic cruise on the Reflection. This is my first transatlantic, and I'm really looking forward to it. I noticed on another gay forum-like website, there are a number of LGBT couples joining us, but I thought I would start a thread on here as well. I hope we'll get some good conversations going. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers! Hi there I am on the reflection for the previous cruise before the transatlantic. I am hoping to get a good deal to do a back to back. As I'm a solo it's a bit more expensive. I am hoping to join you on the one. Looking forward to celebrity :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to celebrity :) Well, it seems like there are good deals to be had, but space is becoming limited. The transatlantic cruises seem to be exceptional value, the only thing is you don't get any perks like the 1, 2, 3, GO promotion. I noticed on this other LGBT roll-call type website (can't mention it here but you could google), there are some others looking for other single travellers to share a room, if that's something you'd be interested in doing. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinagarden Posted April 29, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Well there is plenty of time. I am doing a transatlantic at the end of the year from Europe t-o the states but I will wait and see what is the cheapest. If I don't do this one I will go for an NCL or something. I would like to do reflection as I am already on her but at the moment the prices are very high. We still have time for some specials to entice me. I'm too fussy to share a cabin, unless he is super rich and super generous, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robnbill Posted May 31, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Hi, My husband and I will be on this TA too. Perhaps we can join up once on board. Pre-departure we are spending time in Rome - Tuesday thru Friday Noon - then off to the port. We've done a number of TA's since we started cruising in 2001. We've found the days at sea very relaxing. I'm Rob - my husband is Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might even be worth a meet up beforehand! We're being joined by another couple on this cruise from the UK (straight) but they're good fun! Looking forward to seeing you!

baypeople Posted June 10, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 10, 2016 So far this is a very quiet roll call. We'll be on the Reflection when it sails on October 21. We'll also get to Rome on Wednesday. Looking forward to our first TA. Lynn and Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndersonIslander Posted September 8, 2016 #17 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Hiya... Randy here ... I'll be on board... I'm back to back, originating on the Reflection's Eastern Med cruise on 10/10 also out of Rome and staying onboard for the T/A. Will be in 2160 with my friend Mike for the Eastern Med, then in 1696 solo for the TA. At 6'6" , I'm hard to miss...lol I do this TA every year and it usually has a very fun LGBT contingent, I trust this year will be no exception. Look forward to seeing everyone onboard!!

We're almost neighbors...I'll be in 1696 (center aft over looking the wake) just down the hall from you! I do the Reflection's westbound TA every year and it's always lots of fun!

AndersonIslander Posted September 18, 2016 #20 Share Posted September 18, 2016 I look forward to saying hello in person SOON Randy Hey Johnny and all...since I said I was in cabin 1696, I thought I should post that I have changed my cabin assignment. I'm back to back from the Eastern Med Reflection cruise immediately prior to the Transatlantic, and the Sky Suite (2160) that I am in for the Eastern Med became available for the Transatlantic, so I bit the bullet and bought the Sky Suite upgrade and thus won't have to move. Yaaay. Johnny, if you would like to move to 1696, it's available and a great C1 cabin and I don't think it would cost you much, if anything, to move (I think prices decreased a bit, so there may be no charge to move)...the cabins over the wake are always really great for the view and usually have significantly bigger verandahs. Looking forward to seeing you all onboard!! Randy :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to seeing you all onboard!! Randy :) Hi Randy, Thanks, I saw that there were a few sky suites still available, and was going to look at upgrading myself. I called Bruce at PP though and he said that it would have been about $2K additional, so decided against it. I am happy though that I was able to get a friend at the Celebrity Miami office to make sure I'm on the top of the list of reserving an alcove while onboard (for at least a few days). I absolutely loved those on Silhouette, and know I'll love them even more on Reflection. Such a great place to read, listen to music and relax and no worries about someone taking your seat. I can feel the bliss already. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNightDawg Posted October 4, 2016 #22 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I was visited by the Upgrade Fairy myself, so my humble Inside cabin has transformed into a Concierge Class Veranda cabin. Just about 10 days until I take off for Rome, then eventually on this TA. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
