I will keep you posted when I get a response....Here is part of the letter i sent..
And yes I have no shame.....I will market to anyone..LOL

Dear Captains Club..
It has come to our attention that Celebrity is in the process of closing out the Cova Café's throughout the fleet.

We are sorry and saddened to hear this and hope it isn't so. This is a favorite spot for us and we do enjoy the product as well...

We currently have two sailings booked .. the Galaxy this December 08 that Booking Number #######

And we are also helping lead a group from www.CruiseCrazies.com for the Constellation in November of 09 as "Connie Goes Crazie" that booking number #######

If by chance the rumors are true could you please confirm the following points...

1. When are they closing? Is there a time table?

2. Will the "Cova" be replaced with another "brand" or will Celebrity re work those areas of the ship...

3. Will the Venues that used to house these Cafés i be eliminated all together, or will they still be used for entertainment in the evenings..

Appreciate any and all information you can provide as others are awaiting "official "information and not just rumor..

Thank you

And here is their response

So as of today there is the "official word" ... tomorrow of course, it may change things...but as for today we have our answer!
