Additional details
This was our eleventh cruise, third with Celebrity, third going to the Panama Canal, and we were celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary. We're from Pennsylvania, U.S.A. We're not going to bother with reviewing the ports or excursions here, since these are not exclusively specific to a Celebrity's Equinox cruise.
Port Everglades Embarkation:
We were advised before-hand via e-mail and phone messages, that the previous voyage had an significant outbreak of Norovirus, so the ship's staff was going to do a top-to-bottom sanitation of the entire ship, which would mean they would be delaying everyone's scheduled embarkation times. This was more than fine with us. We arrived within 30minutes of our newly assigned embarkation time, and we were walking over the gangway within fifteen minutes of arriving at the port.
Cabin Review
Deluxe Veranda 2B
We had a cabin and veranda a few doors forward of the forward elevators, starboard side, on the seventh floor, with a very spacious balcony, and the best cabin layout we've ever had. There were lots of storage spaces to stow our clothes and gear, and a very well ventilated and easy to use bathroom and shower. The bed was a little stiff, but there's room below it to stow your empty suitcase. The cabin temperature was comfortable at all times. It had a modern AppleTV flat-screen television. The digital stateroom phone was nice since it kept track of the changing time-zones. The cold water in the room was never really cool or cold, but shower pressure and temperature was consistent.
