I checked with Captains Club when they made the public announcement and they said it would flow down to RCCL in by 2009....of course, it wouldn't be the first time I've been given incorrect info from them. Like when I booked my 4th Celebrity in one year for December, and they assured me there would be NO change in the smoking policy. Now I don't believe anything until they make it public news release. Naturally, I cancelled the sailing and won't be rebooking. Again, I'm sure you'll love Celebrity. I always did.


I do know the story you are referring to....it wasn't exactly the entire side of the ship (see below)....however I never understood how a small fire wasn't contained by the sprinklers EVERYWHERE....it wasn't like an accelerant was used or anything....always struck me odd that it wasn't contained before spreading to a fairly big area.


"The ship was not seriously damaged and would sail back to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., on Friday, Peterkin said. "


And not to be argumentative, but do you remember the MGM Grand burning down? If fire were such a concern, smoking would be banned in all hotels as well. After all, a cruise ship is nothing more now than a floating hotel. I really think the only reason they did it was to make the new ships for a different demographic
