Trip Bacon β€” The secret ingredient to the perfect getaway logo

Key Moments

Editorial Summary

The creators evaluate the value of booking Concierge Class on Celebrity Cruises, noting that it is often misunderstood as a suite category or a wellness-focused tier like Aqua Class. They clarify that Concierge Class is essentially a standard balcony or infinite veranda room with specific added perks. The video highlights several potential drawbacks, including the fact that priority boarding is merely an earlier check-in window rather than a dedicated lane, and that certain in-room amenities like sparkling wine must be explicitly requested from stateroom attendants. The creators also warn that the dedicated concierge team can be understaffed, leading to long wait times that may exceed those at guest services and making it difficult to book exclusive onboard events via telephone. Ultimately, the creators conclude that Concierge Class is worth the upgrade only if the cost is approximately 200 dollars more per person than a standard veranda cabin. They base this valuation on the increased Captain's Club loyalty points earned per night, which they find to be the most significant benefit of the category.

Creator's Key Takeaways

we just got off a 14 night Celebrity Cruise in coner class and there are some things that celebrity isn't telling you

there are no more canapes there are no bottles of sparkling wine some of these things that are amenities that have been concierge class for a while but where are they

those two or three coner are taking care of anywhere from 50 to 80 people and we have personally found them very difficult to get a hold of

we say conier class is worth it only if it is $200 per person more expensive to do than a veranda cabin
