This was our 2nd time on this exact ship and itinerary. We took it a 2nd time because we had a cruise credit which had to be used, and it was convenient for us. We really enjoyed the Dawes Glacier experience (turning that big ship around in the middle of a Fjord; no easy trick) as well as Zip-Lining Grizzly Falls and the Bering Sea Crab Fisherman's Tour!
The OnBoard experience was a very ...
We chose the itinerary (which was the Pacific Coast, not Japan) Originally we chose the Millinium, but the ship was changed to Solstice. Big disappointment. From a revolutionized ship to one who is just worn out. I choose a cruise for the whole experience and this did not deliver. The service overall service was great, the staff was friendly, we did not experience any of the shortages ...
We have used Celebrity before in the Med and enjoyed them. Booked this cruise and was disappointed with the following: stateroom had a broken drawer, makeup was left in the cabin from a previous guest, carpets were frayed and dated, furniture in lobbies were stained very dated and worn, menus for the main dinning room very severely frayed and worn, some menus had food stains. We found the main ...
Pre-Cruise: To facilitate travel to Seattle from North Florida, we drove to Atlanta and flew to Seattle on a direct Delta Flight. Prior to driving to Atlanta, we completed our COVID testing via Leon County Health. We arrived in Seattle the day before the cruise and stayed at the Westin Hotel in downtown Seattle. Taxi fare from the airport to hotel was $40. The Westin is a luxury hotel ...
We chose this cruise for my daughters 30th. We wanted to go repelling in Skagway as that’s what we did with my dad on our last cruise together. When we boarded the cruise we learned that our excursion had been canceled. I was on Equinox and Reflection in last year and Solstice was definitely in need of an update. The air conditioning was not functioning well in our cabin. They installed new ...
This is my second and our parents fifth Alaska cruise since the restart so I think I have some perspective. Overall, this was a good cruise, and everyone in our party agreed that we would be open to cruising with Celebrity again. The biggest plus with this cruise were the employees. They were all, without exception, friendly and (importantly) competent. We have been on many cruises over the years ...
In order to use up covid credits, I took my oldest daughter on this cruise. I have taken many cruises and used many cruise lines including European river cruises. It was my third trip to Alaska. There were issues with dining room seating and a rude lady concierge that took a Captains Club desk to help solve, and one excursion that refused our going because my daughter uses a walker although ...
This was our 4th cruise with Celebrity, our 5th overall (the other with NCL). It was our first post-pandemic trip, we were basically forced to book because our FCC was going to expire. I wanted a domestic departure to avoid any covid travel issues that might occur with an international departure. Hubby has always wanted to go to on an Alaskan. This cruise fit the bill.
Food is a big deal ...
I selected this cruise for my annual summer vacation with my two grandchildren (both 6 years old). My grandson has Autism and I was searching for a vacation that would be appropriate for us all. I read that Celebrity Cruise had a Autism friendly program. I was excited to find out the details, so I contacted Celebrity direct and got the details. I was impressed that they were including a much ...
I chose this cruise because I wanted a roundtrip cruise to Alaska from a US port. This cruise checked the boxes. This ship was recommended by a travel agent friend who frequently cruises. This was a second cruise for my companion and me.
My stateroom was spotless.
The ship was beautiful. My companion and I LOVED Captain Tazos. We were obsessed and we wanted to talk with him every time we ...
