I know it's a lot of work, but you made it happen. A couple of questions: For the Cocktail Hour 5 - 7, when you order a drink (from the specific menu) do you give the server the sea pass and get a slip to sign when they return with the drink ? Is there a 3 drink limit per day ? Also in the Cafe Al Baccio when you get a specialty coffee, there is no charge for Elite Plus. But if you want one of the Coffee drinks with alcohol (like Aspen Coffee) do you get charged the full price or just the difference in price. Quite sure that you pay full price for your alcoholic drink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I originally booked it and even joined the roll call. But once our Dec 2022 Asia cruise on Solstice got shifted to Dec 2023, I cancelled the Nov 2023 Connie TA and booked the one we are now on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mahdnc Posted November 4, 2022 Author #439 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Here is a breakfast menu card we filled out about a week ago: For this one breakfast, we hand wrote Eggs Benedict and received it. We ordered room service for breakfast at each of the five ports. Each time it was delivered on the front end of the time slot we selected. For example, if we picked 7:30-8:00 am delivery, it would be delivered at 7:30 am sharp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mahdnc Posted November 4, 2022 Author #443 Share Posted November 4, 2022 The ship will be setting it's clock back an hour tonight. There is no time zone change between Nassau and our next destination, Tampa. We are simply switching away from Daylight Stavings Time 24 hrs early.

WeBcruisingMN Posted November 4, 2022 #445 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Excellent review, David, and a nice sailaway pic from Nassau! That is one of our fav sailaways. I’ll attach my two recent pics from November (Reflection) and January (Silhouette). So glad that you’ve had a successful return to cruising and a wonderful crossing of the Atlantic. All the best to you and your wife, Marcia 😊 Sharon (& John) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best to you and your wife, Marcia 😊 Sharon (& John) Sharon, that's a very nice composition of the lighthouse and background. I completely missed that as I was more interested in watching Infinity sailing behind us. On our sailing, the ship's photography department is holding a passenger photo contest. Each cabin is allowed to submit one photo which is printed out and displayed on a wall for other passengers to see and vote for their favorite. The winner gets a free digital photo package for the cruise. That's a pretty shrewd idea by Celebrity because in theory, if you're a serious contestant, you are going to be motivated to have your photo taken by the ship's photographer frequently during your sailing to maximize the value if you win. And so if you don't win, it puts pressure on you to buy the photo package because of all the photos you worked hard to put in the package! The contest is poorly run in my opinion. Apparently there are no rules and when or where your photograph is taken (e.g. it can be taken ten years ago of your dog at a family picnic). It would make sense that the photo should be taken during your cruise vacation. And you have to ask an employee on how to vote. And so I imagine that few people do. You might want to submit your photo on your next cruise. Edited November 5, 2022 by mahdnc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ship's program on Day 1 wrongly had us changing our time last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
