Why did we go? To cruise again & for some sunshine.
Paperwork dealt with, excellent coach service to port with Evesway, embarkation smooth. Delighted with space in our Accessible Concierge cabin, no. 1028. As expected a bit bumpy thru Bay of Biscay.
There had been changes to whether we might/not explore Canaries on our own by bubble prevailed. Those who hadn’t booked cruise excursions ...
Picked this cruise as it was from Southampton so no flying.
Great thing about this ship is the crew,all helpful and happy, great stateroom on deck 10,food very good in the MDR, not the usual choices in the buffet,which was disappointing ( perhaps because there were only approx 1300 guests onboard ), precautions taken re covid were very good ,but there was four cases, three of these were taken ...
There should never have been the amount of stress pre cruise that we (English) and especially the Americans were put through. The lack of communication from Celebrity was a common theme. We all jumped through hoops to get on this cruise.
Pre- embarkation we had to arrange for PCR tests within 3 days of leaving. The choice was use Eurofins, recommended and linked to Celebrity who then forward ...
We have done several Celebrity cruises and had two booked this summer. We cancelled the first in July (still waiting for our cruise credit) and took the sailing on the 14th 8nts booking an Aqua Class stateroom. I don’t want to ramble too much so here are my likes and dislikes.
Blu Dining was fantastic, every meal top notch although the menus were dated 2018 so a refresh is needed. Staff were ...
Unfortunately the cruise was not as good as we’d hoped and we were disappointed at how our disabled child was largely ignored.
Our son is 11 and has cerebral palsy and is a full wheelchair user and cannot speak or eat but can understand. During the cruise only 4 members of staff spoke to either him or to us about him. In the main dining room our servers only asked for our names not our sons. ...
I booked this cruise as a safe option after having a couple of holidays cancelled. After the worry of getting the PCR results getting on the ship was very easy though I would advise taking hard copy of all your documents and don't depend on the apps etc for you vaccination and PCR results. The ship is okay, though I generally dislike the layout of Celeb ships. Next bit of advice is if you are ...
Booked a standard double balcony - room was fine. Only slight grumble would be the lack of UK plugs, easily overcome with the loan of an adapter from Guest Relations. It's a slightly older ship so don't expect USB chargers.
Embarkation was easy as were the tests. Don't forget to bring QR codes if your child had a PCR test preboarding but is not double jabbed. Easy to park right by the ...
From start to finish the process of booking our cruise was great.
This was our first cruise and so I didnt know what to expect.
Prior to the crusie date my husband booked a VIP package online which included internet, Priority Embarkation and disembarkation (cases off first) inside tours, wine and food pairing, laundry amongst other things.
Unfotunately this package (Just under $500) didnt ...
4 stars again for the cruise.
Staff give excellent service and for us the S class is about the right size. We have not rated fitness or excursions as we do not use them. Our cruises are all about enjoying the ship and meeting people.
Check in is excellent. We park on the dockside and typically take around 25 minutes from the car to being on the ship with a welcome drink.
Azores was ...
As a retired London travel agent I researched this cruise ship and knew the food would be very good. We booked 6.30 pm in Main Dining Room. Only went for first night as awful.
Requested table for two for 50th anniversary. Put on table for six but with just four people on it. The noise from our floor and the one immediately above which was a sort of mezzanine floor was appalling. The ...
