Morecruises1 Posted January 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Is our fare cruise only or do we have premium drinks/wifi etc included? We made that mistake of putting in captains club number does it still mess up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted January 1, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Cruise fare only is just that. No beverage package, no prepaid gratuities, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like you have the retreat not refundable deposit…to me it looks like you have premium drinks, WIFi and tips…but I would call and ask to confirm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbfb Posted January 1, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Isn’t retreat always all included unless it’s a move up bid? Good to know if it isn’t. I wouldn’t want to make that mistake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s non-zero, they probably don’t have premium drinks and wifi either. Edited January 1, 2023 by RichYak 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jelayne Posted January 1, 2023 #9 Share Posted January 1, 2023 (edited) Our looked like this you can see the Retreat OBC and we have the beverage package, wi-Fi gratuities.

Northern Aurora Posted January 1, 2023 #13 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Just now, DaKahuna said: How did you do this booking? Is it through BlueChip? Good point. In any event, I am looking at my invoices for an upcoming B2B2B2B series. All four legs are in suites and none are bookings through BlueChip. In our case the numbers after the "TC__" and "YV__" codes are different numbers than @DaKahuna's invoice, but they are indeed listed. These were bookings made onboard a Celebrity ship using a future cruise salesperson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DaKahuna Posted January 1, 2023 #14 Share Posted January 1, 2023 That's interesting. I would. call Celebrity and ask them as normally Retreat cannot be booked without the Drinks, WiFi, and Gratuities included. I have always received those when booking the Retreat except one time when the booking was within the 90 days of sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare markeb Posted January 1, 2023 #15 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I would call. The OP has a different code for Retreat than I've seen before. RETREATBO75. Is that a new master code for Retreat? I don't know what's included under that code. But they normally list the components separately. OP, you understandably cut off the pricing information, but is there a separate charge to the left of the Gratuities? If so, I'm reasonably confident you don't have the standard Retreat package with drinks, Wi-Fi, and gratuities in the price. If you just booked that, it's a good time to get on the phone and get what you want. But odds are the fare will go up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beverage & wi-fi can take awhile to show however the OBC for booking a suite should show in the cruise planner within 24 hrs. If that doesn’t show then that would indicate you don’t have the other items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgparent Posted January 2, 2023 #17 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Ours that I just booked 2 weeks ago looks like this, better have everything included. we also have 800 OBC as part of the booking. The change fee is because I accidentally booked the wrong week called right away and changed it and they waived the fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latest offer is the Biggest Offer 75% off second guest and that is the code shown. You can’t book a cruise only fare for the retreat on the website at this time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morecruises1 Posted January 2, 2023 Author #19 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Thanks the codes are so confusing and on the last trip we had that bug where when you put in your captains club number it went to a cruise only fare. I appreciate everyone looking as I can't figure out the codes at all and I wish it listed somewhere plainly what we have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I got to the screen just before paying the Summary it did not show the normal Retreat perks. It only showed the $50 New Year bonus OBC, no drinks, wi-fi or the normal suite OBC.

I. have had that happen as well when using the Military Discount. I always make sure that when I book The Retreat that all the perks are included.

It’s the same problem as booking Aqua and then seeing select dining. It’s an artefact of the booking system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
