Smoking is not permitted in the casinos, although it’s allowed in designated outdoor areas.

Smoking with cigarette, cigar, e-cigarette and pipe smoking is permitted in designated outdoor areas of the starboard side of all ships; with the exception of Oasis-class ships that will allow smoking on the port side of the ships. To assist in locating areas where smoking is permitted, guests will find visible signage posted within all smoking areas and ashtrays that are provided for use. Outdoor areas near restricted areas, food venues, and kids play areas and pools will not allow smoking. On Oasis-class, smoking is not permitted in Central Park or the Boardwalk neighborhoods.

Currently, Celebrity Cruise Line doesn't have as straight forward of a point system as Royal Caribbean does. Celebrity doesn't have the clear onboard certificate program either. BUT, that's something to expect a change in Q1 of 2020. Royal Caribbean and Celebrity are owned by the same company, but they operate very differently on different programs.

Celebrity and Royal are starting to work closer together, so they're going to have to have their programs become more similar. I would expect at the beginning of the year 2020, we're going to get a lot more clarity on Celebrity Cruise Line's point system.

As we receive more information, it will be shared!

No, but it does depend on the market dynamics like in anything. There are different factors that could cause the price of a certain sailing to go down or up. Typically Celebrity cruises are a little more expensive and so criteria is a little bit higher. But sometimes, like when the Celebrity Edge first launched, we got some amazing offers. The criteria is pretty similar but Royal Caribbean is a little bit more aggressive.

Yes, Always Included will begin on November 17th, 2020. Note, that it is not included with all casino reservations. Certain criteria must be met for it to come with your reservation. 

It is Celebrity's new pricing strategy, which includes three amenities (Tips, Surf Wi-Fi and Drinks, Classic Beverage Package) in your cruise fare, with the ability to upgrade amenities with the purchase of Elevate or Indulge package. Please note that not all guests are eligible to receive the Always Included perks with casino reservations. You must meet the criteria set by Celebrity. 

This will be a long-term change in pricing strategy, not a promotion, therefore no booking window.

Yes, the fees are waived in the casino when you book through URComped.
If you happen to run into any issues with that, please speak with the casino host onboard and they should be able to update your reservation to remove the fee.
