After sailing with Royal Carribean 17 times we saw a South America itinary and chose the other side, Celebrity Infinity.
We used the pre cruise hotel and transfer that was great hotel and slick smooth transfer of approx. 1 hour 30 min.
On arrival there were orderly lines and clear instruction to leave luggage. A short walk to the pre boarding hall and booking in process. Plenty of seats, ...
+++++Value.
I Love Celebrity and the Infinity is an older ship but so comfortable for us! Let's start from the beginning: March 14th:
We choose to break up our trip and fly from Fort Lauderdale to Bogota, Columbia. It was a 5 hour flight on Avianca Airlines (an airline we haven't traveled). The flight was great, I would definately fly with them again. We booked the Marriott Bogota Airport. ...
It was a great way to get home from Chile! Certainly better than flying. Smile! We were Aqua class, which enabled the use of the BLU restaurant. We certainly enjoyed that restaurant, not only for the selection of food, but the quiet atmosphere. The team serving us, led by Marcel, deserves recognition for extra ordinary fine service. If traveling on Infinity, we would select Aqua Class again. The ...
This cruise was back to back around South America and thru the Panama Canal on to Ft. Lauderdale. We went to several countries and seen everything from desert to glaciers. Amazing views and narrated thru the Panama Canal. A must try was the Pisco sour. The meals on this ship were excellent, and a large selection of dishes. Anything you wanted you can ask for within reason. The shows on this ...
The infinity is definitely showing some age, some rust here and there, some fraying fabric on chairs and probably the most obvious is the state of the cabin bathrooms which are really in need of some overhaul. On the other hand, the crew is outstanding...friendly, always say hello when passing. The food has actually, IMHO, improved....the food on the infinity is actually spiced so if the dish ...
We usually cruise with Royal Carribean, but this itinerary appealed to us as a way back from a South America trip, so we decided to see what Modern Luxury is all about while wearing our Diamond Plus Royal Caribbean goggles. We have four previous cruises with Celebrity, the first ten years ago, and we thought we knew what to expect.
EMBARKATION:
Embarkation in San Antonio, Chile, was ...
We chose this cruise as we were a group of 10 persons who have all travelled widely and were looking for new destinations. The Panama Canal cruise with South American ports of call ticked most of the group's boxes.
The ship's facilities were excellent as were the entertainment on sailing days and evening theatre. The state room cabins were excelent and were perfectly serviced by the cabin ...
Friends were going, we decided it looked like fun. It was in some ways, but the previously mentioned issues with the engine system slowed the ship down to the point that shore stops were cut short.
Exceptional - entertainment was very good, our cabin attendant was incredible, dining experiences were excellent.Going through the canal for the first time was incredible. I enjoyed the days at sea, ...
This was our second leg of a B2B. The first leg was Buenos Aires to San Antonio. My review has disappeared, however; at least I can't find it.
We had no embarkation issues, since we were already on board and stayed in the same cabin. Getting new cards and accounts was very easy, especially since we waited an hour or two from the announced time.
Concerning food, we ate all of our meals in the ...
Embarkation went smoothly enough. Meals in dining room not to my taste most nights so we ate in ocean view cafe. Mainly the stirfrys which were freshly cooked to order and were excellent,
We found the ship activities to be lacking. Guest speakers... poor for trip what did Alaska act have to do with this Cruise? Very little info on ports except for a short talk on first sea day. Panama canal ...
