It has been a long time (17 yrs) since the DW and I have cruised, and we won't be waiting that along again. The Celebrity Eclipse was wonderful! Thoroughly enjoyed the entire cruise. No vacation is ever perfect, and a few minor issues occurred, but nothing serious to take away any of the fantastic memories of the time aboard the ship and on the excursions.
EMBARKATION:
Flew in to Miami from JFK on the morning of the 14th. Booked the transfer with Celebrity, and everything was handled smoothly. Landed in Miami at 12:20pm and was walking onto the boat receiving Champagne, Mimosas or OJ by 2:00pm. Very easy process. We had checked in on-line for our X-Press Pass and that made everything smooth. The worst part of this day was airport parking at the Parking Spot at JFK as they were overwhelmed with cars at 7:00am. The 30 minute wait to park was the longest wait of the day, including airport security at American Airlines.
8110 and 8112
Adjoining rooms in front right side of ship. Right underneath wing bridge, which they clean daily, causing the balconies to get wet. Rooms are all the way forward, so very quiet. No noise from nightly performances in grand foyer area. Good access for kids and teens up to the kids club area which is also in front part of ship on level 15.
