This was our third cruise on Celebrity having gone on 2 last year. If you check those reviews we were not pleased with the cruise line but we had a worse experience on Holland America. We chose this week knowing that it was a bad week due to the large number of ships at the port since it was the week that was available in March for us. Also we hoped the other ships would attract the younger children and that guess turned our correct.

On our previous cruises, we always left from Miami and the first time at Fort Lauderdale was a mess. The arrival at the port was traffic mess since there were too many ships in port and the traffic flows were not organized. It took almost 20 minutes from the port entrance to get to the unloading point. The rest of the embarkation was relatively fast except for the long line up the gangway.

As usual we boarded after the time specified but the cabin was not ready. The lunch in the Oceanview Cafe was barely ok, which turned out to be the same for the rest of the trip. I got the impression that they just recycled the leftovers until the next day. The only good point was that we learned how to stop waiters trying to get you to order additional drinks. Turn the drink menu sideways on the table.

The storage space is interesting but if you are tall enough you can reach the storage above the beds. Bathroom is of reasonable size. Cabin location was great since it was a short walk to elevators and far enough away not to hear them or the passengers.
