Rare PinkSandGirl Posted July 17, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Hi! For anyone that's sailed AquaClass recently, since cruising restarted, can you offer any insight on current amenities? The included amenities look slightly different than they previously were...for example the current list on Celebrity's website doesn't mention daily iced tea, canapés, or tote bag with lip balm etc... Just curious. I'll be on the Equinox so I am aware there are differences in the spa on the E-Class and Millennium Class. Thanks! 😃 Edited July 17, 2021 by PinkSandGirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmas gran Posted July 17, 2021 #2 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Haven't sailed Aqua since Nov 2018, but didn't get lip balm for sure - iced tea is available most places and afternoon canapes are delivered to Concierge rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Yes, I have usually been in Concierge and know the canapés are delivered there but AquaClass also had them. I noticed it isn't currently included under Concierge or AquaClass amenities so I was wondering if it's just an omission for the write up. I like to get fresh brewed iced tea at Cafe Bacio. 😃 You can choose from any of the teas and just ask for it to be iced. Iced Tea at most other venues isn't good...I've had that same kind at other places besides Celebrity...not sure if it's a powder or fresh brewed with tea that is not good...it is so dark, it looks like soda. I stay clear of that iced tea. I have, when Cafe Bacio is closed, made my own by visiting the buffet for hot water and brew my own to make iced tea. 😉 AquaClass is supposed to have a different flavored tea daily and since I like iced tea, interested in what they will have. (If it's still offered) Curious as well as to what the Iced Tea will be like in Blu. With a 'clean cuisine' concept, they should have fresh brewed. Don't get me wrong...I enjoy cocktails...not just iced tea. 😉 I always have evian with me and I will usually order iced tea, as long as it's good, the same time I order a cocktail. I like beverages, what can I say? 😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmandjay Posted July 17, 2021 #4 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Just off Silhouette in Aqua Class. We had two bottles of water each day plus afternoon canapés. There was no offer of iced tea as far as I know. Blu was as good as ever, and with only half capacity on the ship there were no queues for anything. We had a great time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megatwin07 Posted July 17, 2021 #8 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I'm interested in this as well. Sailing AquaClass on July 31st on Edge. On the website it says "Complimentary fitness class" - does that mean you can go to all fitness classes complimentary? Also, I see "Welcome bottle of sparkling wine (upon request)" - How do I request that? When I get there? And lastly - "Exclusive welcome reception" - I'm assuming an invite arrives for that? Does anyone have details on that? Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbryant Posted July 17, 2021 #9 Share Posted July 17, 2021 We board Edge in a couple of hours in Aqua cabins. We found this online Aqua 2.0 https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Celebrity/General_Info/CEL_04_28_FlyerAquaClass.pdf 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see daily water is back in AQ Class...it was recently reduced to a welcome bottle. Even with the classic drinks that includes water..nicer to have it delivered daily. The tea was never that good..we asked not to receive it, but did like the canapes..esp if we could request cheese, fruit, shrimp or other substitutes What type of shampoos, soaps and gels are now in AQ class.? Loved the CO Bigelow..we use that at home. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emmandjay Posted July 17, 2021 #13 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Yes, the footstools are back on the balcony. The Bigelow soap, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion are in the bathroom. There are bathrobes, slippers and lip balm, too. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted July 17, 2021 #14 Share Posted July 17, 2021 For the sparkling wine just let your cabin attendant k ow when you want it and they will bring it in a wine chiller. The expanded Room Service Breakfast menu used to be in tge cabin, not sure if they are using those anymore. You might find it on the app. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeaBag Posted July 17, 2021 #16 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I think if you don't ask your attendant for the sparkling wine you don't get it. So many have the bev. pkg now, they don't seem to want it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conodor Posted July 18, 2021 #19 Share Posted July 18, 2021 I've sailed in concierge class a couple times in the past. Does Aquaclass have a separate boarding area similar to concierge class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emmandjay Posted July 18, 2021 #20 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Individual bottles, but large size. Body lotion is by the basin, others are in a rack in the shower. One square of hand soap is also supplied. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
