I love Celebrity and have taken about 13+ cruises with them. However paying $579 for myself for "inclusive" pricing to pay for drinks, tipping and wifi for myself was hard to take because I only drink 1 alcoholic beverage a day and most of my wifi used to be paid for me as an elite member. HOWEVER, being required to pay $579 for a non-existent roommate is insulting.
I was told that the only way to not pay for for a non-existent roommate is to find a "single" room with a single bed. I do not mind paying the full price for a room. I use the room (just like in a hotel) and I want a veranda. I do not have a roommate so should not have to pay $579 for that roommate.
Even though I received a 125% credit from the same 2020 cruise that was cancelled, I had to pay an additional $1,200 on top of what was already paid and credited.
I stayed in a suite for the first time and it will be hard to go back to a PLAIN veranda after this.
