LIVE silhouette 14 February — have questions? Ask away

[CHEZMARYLOU]

We are also on the sailing on the 7th. Can you find out what night the Taj dinner is in Sushi on 5? Thanks.

 

[mari10]

We’ll be back on the Silhouette on March 28th. 
Can you ask if Murano’s menu is changing ? 
Some have mentioned that the Dover sole is being replaced .
There is no menu posted on the Celebrity App and a footnote states that menus are subject to change. 
Thank you & hope you have a great cruise !

Last night I needed to stop at guest relations for something. There were two people in line behind me and they were loudly complaining that passengers were not wearing masks.  They got up to the desk and the guest services staff explained that they were no longer required.  So the loud complaint changed to “why didn’t anybody tell us”. They were determined to complain about something. Loudly.

Something is happening but I am not sure what. I think our call on Bimini today has been scrapped. We have had no announcements. But from 7 o’clock on we were approaching the island and I heard all the usual pre-docking noises but now we are back at sea..

Did you find out how many people were onboard?

 

Were on the ship on the 25th - Looking forward to it

Bimini has been scrapped.  High winds of 75 kt made the approach unsafe

Perhaps I misheard him so I will check that.  It was very rough all night.  He said that the winds plus the currents added together to make it unsafe.  I don’t know why anyone would consider that Covid was involved in anyway. But if you’re looking for conspiracies, you can make up your ownI don’t know why anyone would consider that Covid was involved in anyway.

Hi, cruisestitch,

 

We are onboard and I was in the gym when I realized that the stop in Bimini was cancelled due to weather.  We’ll have three sea days until Bonaire.  Fine with me!  The cruise has been excellent so far.  Lovely dinner in Luminae with friends we met two years ago on this ship, entertaining comedy show at 9:00 last night, room service breakfast on balcony this morning, treadmill walking in gym, and now relaxing in the Solarium since it’s too windy up at the Retreat sun deck.  Life is good.  20 more days of this.  😀🚢

Thanks for doing this cruisestitch!  Do you know what deck and room type they are using for guests that are moved in to quarantine?  

[cruisestitch]

One of the hallways on deck three is closed off, but I don’t know what the reason is. It could be for new crew who are coming aboard and need to be isolated, it could be for passengers.

[cruisestitch]

One person on board  has tested positive according to the captain.

Curious if you could post the SpotLight of the Captain and Senior Staff if you happen to still have it.

[cruisestitch]

There was no printed spotlight on this cruise. There was last week on reflection, but not here

[CruiserFromMaine]

@cruisestitch We’re onboard as well, in Aqua class. We really like Blu and it was good to be back. Nice dinner last night. Blu was quite crowded when we arrived around 7:00 which was surprising. Our sommelier, Raja, was quite good; we’ll ask for his section again. Our cabin steward told us he has 8 rooms to attend to instead of the usual 15. 
 

The Solarium is nice today. Coolish and windy on the pool deck.
 

Much older pax complement than usual, probably due to length of cruise which also covers two work weeks.
 

So far, so good onboard!

Hello - really pleased to see a live review from the Silhouette we are joining on 25 Feb for the Southern Caribbean.  We are new to cruise critic but are very grateful for your posts. Our grandchildren are joining us on the cruise are there many children on board?

 

Thanking you in anticipation.

[cruisestitch]

I believe that there are no children on this cruise.  I will confirm that tomorrow 

[SandyKnits]

I haven’t seen any children on board, which is a first!  Hope the weather improves for our next two sea days.
