Been looking at some blowup stools. Thoughts and comments? We spoke with some passengers who had purchased portable inflatable footstools and they were complaining about the nuisance of trying to deflate and pack them to take home at the end of each cruise. It is much easier to use a large inflatable ball instead (as pictured in post #39). No need to deflate or pack it. It is so inexpensive that we just leave it behind after the cruise, or give it away to a child at our last port stop. Then pack another one for the next cruise.

Honestly, I feel if I have paid a premium to book a Concierge Class cabin, I should not need to bring my own footstool substitutes. The ideas are good, I just feel cheated to have to go to such means when I pay so much more for Concierge than I would for a regular balcony. Plus it is something I used to get as part of Concierge perks. Now that is gone, but not the premium price. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen haywood Posted July 30, 2019 #53 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Celebrity did away with daily water in the apply named Aqua Class. Luminae does not serve three meals every day or have locally sourced menu items as advertised when introduced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ghstudio Posted July 30, 2019 #54 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Wow...next time I will put a smiley face after plebeian. The reason for the reference was celebrity being so focused on their suite customers while removing, over time, perks and amenities for non suite passengers. We, btw, are plebeians ourselves... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need something to cool off up there. Maybe at least a shower or garden hose? Maybe someone will come by with buckets of cold water to dump on your head? I actually did that at a fair when it was 90 degrees. I asked the guy watering something to squirt me with it! It felt great! Maybe staff could come by with spray misters for all of the suite guests up on the Retreat.. 😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
