First and last cruise

First Time Cruiser • Age 30s

My wife and I were not the typical cruisers on our recent sailing. We’re both in our late 30s, have traveled the world independently, and are interested in really getting to know a place and its people. I was really disappointed in both the vibe onboard the ship in tandem with the extreme tourist-ification of our ports of call. We did not partake in any of the shore excursions, instead planning ...

Terrible and daunting support process.

The ship was fine. It was the process to sign up that was daunting, exhaustive and frustrating. I will never sign up with Celebrity again. The cruise started in Seattle and ended up dropping us off in Vancouver. This was plain stupid. Our car was in Seattle. Don't consider this as a final destination point if you depart from Seattle. Celebrity does not help you get back to Seattle. The ...

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 ...

I've been on other AK cruises with Holland and Princess, but we decided to try Celebrity this time. The AK cruise is easy from Northern CA, at least it was before Covid. This time we flew to Seattle 2 days early, because there have been so many delays on airlines. We stayed one night in Tacoma and one night in the Belltown area of Seattle. My 41 year old daughter was traveling with me, this was ...

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 ...

This cruise was rescheduled from the summer of 2020. This was my 4th Alaskan cruise on the Solstice with previous cruises 2016-2018. I was told there were 2600 passengers on the ship not quite full capacity. We completed all of our onboard information online in advance of the cruise. This was our 7th Alaskan cruise out of Seattle. Embarkation was very chaotic. We arrived at our scheduled time. Our ...

My daughter and I were with a group of 74. I am an single leg amputee and a full time electric wheelchair user. The embarking and disembarking process was very efficient. The staff in the buffet was extremely helpful in carrying and filling your plate and locating a table. The food was great in the MDR and the buffet. Specialty dining with Le Petit Chef was outstanding and the filet mignon very ...

Disappointing Solstice, poor food, poor service, covid concerns

We boarded Solstice with a group and looked forward to an amazing trip. While Alaska was fantastic, the ship was hardly adequate and there was little concern about service and food. We should have known it was an omen when we checked in at the pier for our Concierge Suite. The kid checking us in knew little about how to go about it. He NEVER asked for our negative Covid test and when I asked if he ...
