Review of the Equinox Jan 17th sailing
It would be good to start with a little bit of info about who is writing this review. We are in our 50's and have cruised Celebrity a bunch of times over the last 10 years. I am an Italian trained Chef and a certified Sommelier. My wife of almost 30 years is disabled.
We arrived in Ft Lauderdale a day early so we could enjoy our first day on the Equinox and not be tired from the flight. Embarkation took a whole 20 minutes from dropping off the bags to being on the ship. I was impressed. We went to the Aqua Spa Cafe for a light lunch. I then headed to Murano to make dinner reservations. The wife unpacked the carry on and I went to explore the ship. We normally cruise M class ships so the exploring was important. I did not want to get lost. It would be embarrassing to have to have the Coast Guard rescue me. All of the luggage came but 1 so I went to Guest relations and was told that they were holding the bag because there was a restricted item in the bag. As it turns out the wife had packed a travel iron. I filled out the paper work and was handed a claim ticket stating that I would get the iron back some time after 10pm on the last night. It was delivered by a security agent right on time.
