I bought one on the Symphony February 18, 2024

I was on the Symphony February 10-18th, bought one at Guest Services for $10. I was in a GS so they are not free for suite guests.

Just curious, with the DP340 promo code in use, do you still get an extra C&A point for cruising solo?

I was onboard February 10-18 also. I was surprised the casitas did not face the ocean. They are on deck 16 overlooking the pool. Here is a picture taken from the Coastal Kitchen.

Just used luggage valet on February 18th. I was tracking our two suit cases with Apple air tag. My wife’s suitcase made it to FFL then loaded on our Delta flight. When we got to ATL around 2:30, my suitcase was still at the cruise terminal. I called Royal while in ATL but they said a 3rd party handles the luggage and did not have a number. I got my luggage the next day. I’ll go back to walking off our bags. My idea of going to the CK in the morning for breakfast and not messing with our bags backfired.

I got that email today also. Our obstruction was the window washing apparatus. I’ve already sent an email to my TA to move our cabin. Lucky for us, there are cabins still available for February 2025.

We just got back from our first Celebrity cruise (10-day cruise). We enjoyed eating in the Blu restaurant, much like the Coastal Kitchen. I used the thermal suite daily, but my wife never went. We were able to lower the cost of our cabin by $1,000 after a few months by watching the prices. We had the “All Included” pricing. Make sure the veranda cabin has the “All included” pricing for your comparison. That said, we booked a B2B aqua class cabin for 2026. I still prefer Royal Caribbean but like some of the itineraries on Celebrity.

I’m on this cruise too

In order: 1. Symphony 2. Harmony 3. Freedom 4. Liberty 5. Independence

I’m going to Antigua on Celebrity Equinox November 30th, haven’t heard anything yet

I just booked a dive excursion in Roatan and Cozumel aboard the Wonder (I'm 68). They could cancel it when I board the ship next year, but for now they are happy to hold my money. Last year I did a ship dive excursion in Aruba on the Explorer, I was 67 at the time. Overall there are not many dive excursion offerings these days, I've been booking directly with dive shops. Just did a Bermuda cruise in August, no dive excursion offered.

We usually cruise 4 times per year and stay in a Junior Suite or Grand Suite. I’ve had a side job in real estate appraising that has funded our cruises over the years. Our future cruises are S2S or B2B to help cut down on airfare from Ohio.

I’ve brought a 14” electric fan with a travel extension cord with 110/USB outlets on 25+ cruises with Royal, no problems.

Also, ask your cabin steward for a mattress pad or a couple duvets to put on the sofabed. I’ve done this several times in the GS cabins, makes the sofabed more comfy.

We were at 357 points last cruise, don’t remember getting an invitation. Do we need to go to guest services to sign up?
