I chose this cruise for the destinations. We cruise several times a year & this by far was the worst embarkation experience! We waited in line for well over an hour. We really liked our cabin 8102 (directly below the bridge). It was very spacious! The draw back was the churning noise of the mechanics of the ship when docking. Personally, that did not bother us but could be a problem for others. The service throughout the ship was excellent. The food was good but nothing spectacular. The evening show were all high quality! I booked my excursions through Viator. They had many excursion options at a fraction of the cost if booking through the cruise line. My husband and I traveled alone on this cruise. In fact, very few children were on this trip. Fortunately disembarkation went much smoother. We enjoyed our experience on Celebrity and would not hesitate in cruising with this line again!
