Another amazing week spent aboard the Celebrity Reflection! This was our third cruise on Reflection and our fifth cruise aboard the solstice class of ships. My husband and I are 40-50 range and have traveled all over the world. We live in Florida so we choose to cruise for the ship not the destination. We usually go with family or our children but this time we went alone.

Checkin- Since we live in Florida we drive and park at the parking garage . The garage is $20 a night and we never have trouble parking. We chose to carry our bags on since we booked a sky suite and could go directly to Luminae for lunch. We usually arrive at the ship at noon, and the addition of the tunnel makes getting there a breeze. Checking in is always fast and easy- not just because we had a suite, but the lines seem to move quickly .The other two times on this ship we were on concierge and everything was just as fast and efficient. We never wait more than five minutes for our sea pass and are able to walk right on the ship.

Sky suite - My husband and I decided to try a sky suite this cruise to treat ourselves since we were going alone. We booked a big, better , best package choosing the best option. That includes - Premium beverage package for two( premium because of suite otherwise it's classic) pre-paid gratuities for two, on board credit of $300 and unlimited internet- which was a great value , Celebrity upgraded their internet and it was a huge improvement since our last cruise. We were able to FaceTime our son even when we were out to sea with no interruptions! The most amazing part was he was vacationing in New York with my family and I facetimed him while he was on the train going to Mahattan and it worked just fine. It really helped me relax knowing I could chat with him anytime. Read more
