Introduction:
After several cruises with Carnival and Royal Caribbean, my wife and I decided to give Celebrity a try. We found a little 2 night trip on the Century out of Miami would serve that function and also not require us to take any time off of work. We were accompanied by my wife's parents, and it was her father's first cruise.
We live in Central Florida so we drove down the morning of the cruise. After getting parked we began the embarkation process. It went smoothly up until the check in desk. Our attendant's computer crashed, so we had to wait a while as she rebooted it. She had to swipe our card several times, and didn't seem at all confident that it had worked when we left. As it turns out it didn't work, we would have to go do the guest relations desk the next day to fix it. That was the only hitch, and we were on the ship in less than 45 minutes after parking.
Lots of storage, nice balcony, Concierge perks, flat screen, desk, couch, massaging shower head, flowers in room, fruit basket, champagne bottle in room, pay extra mini bar.
