I love Bigelow products. Not uncommon to see them in hotels like Kimpton's and other boutique properties. I know the Cosmopolitan Las Vegas used them for their hotel. It's definitely a quality product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely M class. The canopies over the balconies have not been replaced by slats. That's the Sunset Bar you're thinking of. The picture was taken from the Sunset Bar.

They had a hard time renting them as many saw the overhang to be an obstructive view. Marketing to the rescue! The re-branded them in about 2005 as AquaClass with the Persian Garden they then became a "desirable" cabin. I believe CC were always there but had no real benefits except priority. About 2 years ago they finally gave them a dedicated concierge due to many complaints. Actually, most of the AQ cabins were formerly CC cabins. The benefit of CC cabins on the M class has always been that they're larger than other balcony cabins. As for the concierge, It's my understanding that the concierge has always been available to anyone on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Flame Posted April 10, 2019 #1004 Share Posted April 10, 2019 These are photos of the three new inside cabins on deck 7 (ones on the other decks look similar). It shows the wall between the glass elevator lobby and the newly created corridor. The second photo is taken from the elevator lobby looking toward the new wall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted April 10, 2019 #1005 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Good photos Interesting..they extended the hallway..still leaves a nice elev lobby. Our balc cabin is on the other side...but we'll still have the hallway through to the elev Thnks for posting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can tell it is an S class by the indentation of the railing in the middle, the M class ships the railing goes straight across.

It makes sense that they wouldn't have cabins opening into a public space like that and they still left a decent lobby space for the elevators. I really don't have a problem with the addition.

The S class aft balconies are more stacked, and not extended the way the M class is, plus the M class balconies look down on the Penthouse balconies.

Luv2Crus40 Posted April 10, 2019 #1012 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Not only are the slats unfunctional for shade, they look even uglier and messier from below. Might have looked better and been better for shade if slats were closer together. They just look bent and broken when viewed from the back. What was Celebrity thinking when they approved this change?

I found it easily using my tablet..guess my old phone was the problem.. Would not want an inside stateroom located there . ( we are book elsewhere on 7 in a balc cabin) While these new ones are Convenient to the elevator for those who may have limited mobility, the doors seem to open right at the elev landing. They could have made it a nice lobby or lounge area...greed! Well, seeing as I'm booked in two of those cabins right now for the Aug 2, 2020 Iceland and Greenland cruise, I'm glad that @Blue_Flame is spot on about the addition of a wall! I was originally booked in a pair of insides on Deck 9, directly dead center under the pool, and believe me when I say I think this is definitely a better location! 😁 9 hours ago, 2Long2NxtCrz said: But I will say that having more inside cabins does mean that some folks who might never have considered Celebrity before because of the cost might now. Assuming that the prices go down following the logic of supply and demand: more cabins should keep the prices lower. At least on the aforementioned sailing, that's a big ol' NOPE! Inside cabin prices are actually higher than since I've booked; though to be fair, the ship is almost completely sold out at this point and supply vs demand is probably working very strongly in the opposite direction right now.

If it's already almost sold out, yeah, there's clearly not enough supply for that demand. I suspect Iceland and Greenland are becoming the new "it" destinations. I know I've had some friends go and if it wasn't so darned expensive to get there, I'd be there in a heart beat. It's just gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite who is supposedly posting pictures from where, the picture with the white canopies is an S class ship. Either they have not yet or will not be replacing them with the slats. In any case, it is the slats...in several pictures above...that have replaced the white canopies on M Class, not S class ships. And they are what people are objecting to because they make the Deck 11 AQ cabins much less private, and do not provide the shade that the solid canopies used to provide to the bar below. They look like something we made out of popsicle sticks when we were kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly, that is not the case. The photos are clearly from M-Class. The people in Aqua deck 11 cabins are complaining because the "slats" allow people to look UP to their balcony whereas before, there was a canopy over the Sunset Bar. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The canopies over the decks of the aft cabins on Decks 9, 8, 7, and 6 remain. The picture is portraying the canopies over the aft cabins on Decks 9, 8 7 & 6 on the SUMMIT - Which is an M class ship. The picture that is posted is NOT from an S Class ship. Edited April 11, 2019 by jcpc 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also like that they changed the flooring on the balcony and it also looks like they went from the translucent side walls to solid. And, looks like they STILL have great furniture.
