Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted February 22 #1 Share Posted February 22 Our last three cruises we were in aqua class and were always given our stateroom key holder and tote. My question, did we get these items because we were elite members or because we were in aqua class? Saturday we booked the Beyond, ABC islands which the only choice we had was to take an Oceanview guarantee (or a suite for 15k), just to get on the ship we chose the guarantee. Would we be provided the stateroom key holders having an Oceanview? Also, sometimes we were given one and other times two, are we allowed to get one each (there are two of us in the cabins and we found these quite useful, only we cannot find them in our house)?

gold1953 Posted February 22 #2 Share Posted February 22 How long ago was this as we cruise 5 times in the last year and there were none.. Aqua, veranda and inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mahdnc Posted February 22 #3 Share Posted February 22 We usually cruise in regular veranda category cabins (most recently on Constellation in Oct/Nov 2022) and have not gotten one of those keyholders in a long time. When we cruised in Aqua aboard Solstice this past Dec/Jan, we got a tan keyholder. So my guess is that you will not receive one if you are in an OV cabin.

Mr. Click Posted February 22 #4 Share Posted February 22 We are Elite, we were on Beyond in January in an OV. We did have bags waiting for us and another bag was left on port/beach days. No Sea Pass holders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ggo85 Posted February 22 #5 Share Posted February 22 We are Elite, sailed in suite earlier this month. Got (a nice) beach bag on Day 3. Holder for Seapass card. No keyholder. Nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celtic_Creation Posted February 22 #6 Share Posted February 22 We sailed Aqua Class in June 2023 and got the key card holders as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Virgo Posted February 22 #7 Share Posted February 22 we did 2 cruises in 2023 in Aqua and no holder for the seapass card. No tote. Had to ask. Maybe some ships were using up their supply of holders. Compared to what X used to give you, pretty much nada now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingTheWaves Posted February 22 #8 Share Posted February 22 Thanks for the reminder for me to bring one of my sea pass card holders from a previous sailing. We're in a suite so not sure if they'll give them out but regardless it was something I always used every sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahasamatman Posted February 22 #9 Share Posted February 22 We usually get one holder. The only time we got two was on the Xpedition. Totes are about 50/50 these days for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen a tan keyholder, it has always been grey. We were on the Solstice in Feb. '22 and it was gray. Last month on the Ascent is grey. I get them on every sailing and they are always grey. Very odd. What color was the tote bag? Edited February 22 by kwokpot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have black leather ones they gave out in 2015 or so. Then it was rubber ones that stuck to back of phone and last cruise was grey faux leather!

The keyholder we got on Xpedition last November was blue (and our key cards had two blue footed boobies printed on it).

wrk2cruise Posted February 22 #16 Share Posted February 22 If you ask your stateroom attendant nicely they might be able to find you a couple. I have a drawer full. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are wondering the same somewhat; I looked on this site to investigate. My subjective answer is that X does what it wants. We are Elite Plus Captains Club and on the cruise we currently are on, Sky Suite. We received key holders this go-around, but no fresh fruit, tote bag, flowers on arrival, envelope or acknowledgment of the discounts, canopies…but last cruise, same suite but no key holders; however, we received props for being Captains Club members. Cruises when we were in AQ, received these items. Usually, or in the past Captains Club communicated clearly about the nice additional items b/c of being Elite, or whatever CC status.

Carried_Away Posted February 23 #20 Share Posted February 23 I've gotten card holders and tote bags on previous Celebrity cruises, but I didn't get either on the Beyond in January, I am Elite and was staying in Concierge Class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
