I couldnt comment on vodka or whisky prices however the were charging $10 15% service =$11.50 for a Martini in the Martini bar. A glass of not very special Merlot was $9.00 15%=$10.35 and I think the cheapest bottle of Merlot in the dining room was around $27.00 again 15%. The end result is that people simply dont pay it. Looking around the dining room there seemed to be very few people with wine on the table. Come on Celebrity surely it would be better to have a smaller mark up on something than a large percentage of nothing.

Having only ever sailed with Royal Caribbean in the past, we have previously purchased a 'wine package', which offered good choice and value for money. Do you know whether Celebrity offer something similar? (we have just booked to sail with them next year)

We have just booked a cruise on the Celebrity Eclipse this time next year,an Aqua class cabin with the Blu restaurant included. Its comforting to read as well travelled cruise passengers your review of the Solstice class ship. We look forward to reading your review of the same class of cruise at Xmas. Looking at the deck plan of the brochure I cannot see a lift or stairs near it. Could you please say how you found it on sister ship Solstice?

With regard to the proximity of stairs and elevators for deck11 Aqua class cabins, their are elevators and stairs forward and also midships at the Library, so its reasonably well served in this respect. Hope this helps.

"Whoops" - another "senior moment" Sorry what I meant to say is I cannot see a lift or stairs near to the Blu restaurant.

The Blu restaurant is an extra special restaurant. We ate there for breakfast and dinner each day. It is very friendly and the food is creative and delicious. All of the speciality restaurants are on deck 5. They are all in a group and are served by lift and stairs a little way forward of the restaurant. There is a short walk to get to these restaurants, I would have said it is about 50 metres.
