Help, Last minute booking question on Silhouette

[20165]

Hi, we are looking at booking on Silhouette this coming thursday, 11/3 and have the option of aqua class or concierge class for the same price.  Any recommendations on which would be a better choice?  Looks like aqua has access to the persian garden, have no idea what that is, and a private resteraunt, and the concierge class has access to a concierge.  Both rooms and other perks seem the same.  And sorry if this has already been discussed, but have to book tonight so really in a time crunch.

Thoughts? and thanks in advance.

You will be able to eat three meals a day in the lovely Blu restaurant which is open only to those in Aqua class cabins. My sister, her husband and two friends had Aqua class cabins, but didn't like Blu.  None of them were interested in the spa either. I, myself have never eaten in Blu, so I can't comment. 

 

 We usually stay in Concierge class cabins. Having access to the concierge is not that that big a perk, at least for me, especially if you are in the Captain's Club and have access to that person's help. 

All that said, I think I'd give Aqua class a try. If you don't like Blu, you can eat elsewhere.

Blu is not open for lunch.

What is the price difference between Aqua and a regular veranda?

Thanks everyone. We went with aqua with the recommendations.  One question though, on our email confirm is make no mention of the all included drinks, tips, etc.  It definitely said it on checkout.  Is that listed somewhere else?  We booked directly through celebrity online.

I would’ve taken Aqua also. On one of our future cruises, Aqua was actually cheaper than a Veranda so we booked it. Thought we would give it a try for less $$. We are on Reflection so I understand we can order from the MDR menu, as there are items on that menu that we really like. I think we can also eat in the MDR if we choose……but please correct me if I’m wrong.

You can eat in the MDR but remember that you don’t have a table assignment there so make arrangement with the staff of Blu who will tell you the best options for a night in the MDR

You can't book Aqua currently without perks so I wouldn't worry about it.  Your invoice should have something like "Always Included" either as a line item or in the Promotions section.

email invoice was very vague so we called and there was an issue with the gratuities which they corrected and sent us a PDF which looks more in line with the receipt we are use to getting with other lines.  it does say AI so i think we are good.  thanks

Not a difficult decision in my opinion, as Aqua class now comes with the AI(All Included).

Any cabin below Aqua you have to pay extra for AI.

Oops..  Sorry I goofed..always thought AQ Class garnered more!

If the same price, while I am not a super fan of blu, I would book AQ.  Just make sure your location is good.  Enjoy your cruise.

Thanks Everyone.  we booked last night so now im asking a bunch of dumb questions on here that im sure have already been answered, but we are in panic mode.  Booking this close to the sailing is way outside of our comfort zone...

Thanks again.
