We'll find out soon enough if this is a problem or if they are going to anything at all. We always book AQ or Sky Suite cabins. Specialty restaurants are always part of our cruise experience. In fact Celebrity encourages, with nice offers, the first night to use specialty restaurants. Not sure I can agree with your use of “Generally”.

Rare hcat Posted January 7, 2019 #27 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Agree..we have always booked AQ in the past and also on upcoming EDGE...and always book at least 2 specialty nights out...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There really is no room to expand Blu though because of where it's situated. I don't think they will expand Blu. It will just be crowded and there will be some waiting, especially on days at sea. We'll all get to see Millennium reviews soon enough. The best thing about Blu was enjoying a nice slow paced meal with free flowing wine (if you had the drinks package). I hope those days aren't over. Maybe less opportunity for suite guests to visit BLU??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why I stated above that X are obviously hoping that the specialty restaurants will be utilised more. But unless they add more there are only 3 specialty restaurants on M class ships. Tuscan Grill, Qsine and Sushi on 5. For us Qsine is a one and done. Sushi on 5 is ok for lunch. Tuscan runs hot and cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICCruisers Posted January 7, 2019 #30 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Agreed that M Class ships need an additional Specialty Restaurant. LPC and Raw on 5 are not appealing to us. We’ve been to Tuscan several times and agree that it is somewhat inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiveToCruise99 Posted January 7, 2019 #33 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I'm sure someone has thought of this but I haven't seen anything so I'll say it at the risk of repeating. I know there is a general dislike of the new IV rooms and most don't want to see the S class ships converted from a true balcony to an IV BUT.....What if they could turn ocean view rooms into IV rooms? I think most of us would agree that we'd prefer and IV room to an ocean view. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question. Here is a quote from the gent who posted the actual plans to the M class ships: " Well - I have seen an advance sneak peak at the Millennium deck plans and the iLounge, acupuncture and library areas midship on deck 6,7,8,9 are all GONE and replaced by inside cabins!" So, it appears that new staterooms might be on 9, as well, but I've not seen any plans for them and have no idea what their number designations might be. I will do some checking and see if I can come up with something that might make sense. Actually, no. It appears there is no place on deck 9 on M class to add staterooms. I'm not sure where the poster came up with deck 9 as adding cabins. The plans show new cabins on decks 3 and 10 on M class ships.

We are passing on AQ/BLU for our second EDGE cruise in Nov, when we have an SV..Already booked dining times in the 4 mdrs.. plus specialty We are also not doing AQ/ Blu on our M class booking...The interior Thermal suite not worth the upcharge, looks like it is not moving, and we are hoping the Select dining works more like it does on EDGE..

Pushkin Posted January 8, 2019 #45 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Does anyone know if there are plans to retrofit any of the M class cabins into Panoramic Oceanviews? Also, will the new cabins on 3 Portside be comparable to the deck 3 cabins on the starboard side that were added a few years ago? thanks for all the information posted here.

This is our first Celebrity sailing so appreciate any advice! 9121 currently shows as S2 ADA room and there are NO stateroom additions on deck 9 on Summit after the Revolution. You will have nothing above you other than maybe a crew storage room, and deck 8 is all staterooms. Only decks 3 and 10 will be getting additional staterooms. ALL staterooms will be getting a complete overhaul from metal walls out. I hope that helps! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
