This thread was very informative for me.  I will be doing the NJ-Dublin_Boston in August 2020 on Summit, in a PH with two fellow cruisers.  I cannot wait to experience the Hoppinization of those once lovely penthouses.  I will try to reserve judgment until then; but I have already begun writing my post-cruise comments.

 

I'm getting ready for an Equinox cruise in October; then Antarctica in January.  When I set foot in Boston on August 30, 2020, I will be Zenith.  I probably should've kicked Celebrity to the curb years ago, but I have too much time invested in them to not reach Zenith with them, so I shall.

 

After that, I'll take my FREE cruise and ponder my options.  I will only have one other goal:  taking my 100th cruise.  I'll be at 91 next year, so some cruise line will have to deal with me for 9 sailings.  This is, of course, based on me still being alive and able to cruise....

 

I am hopeful that this Hoppinization crap will slow down, or even grind to a HALT.  This woman has NO SENSE OF STYLE OR TASTE.  She further doesn't grasp the fact that people willing to shell out vast sums of money want opulence rather than sparseness; cabinets and drawers rather than shelves; seating that is comfortable rather than stools.

 

I know that at times I need a filter; sadly, my filter last night was XO cognac, and this is the result....  But at least it is off my chest.  FLAME AWAY!!!!

 

 

Olive... you are one of a kind...keep on cruising with style!
