We had never cruised before cruising the Celebrity Century to New Zealand last winter. We were hooked, and made a (for us) last-minute decision to take a cruise on the Celebrity Infinity to Alaska. Late July and early August is a good time of the year to trade Texas for the far north.
We enjoyed being a larger ship this time, with more space to move around on days that were too chilly to walk around on the deck.
The Infinity's public areas are immaculately maintained, and our stateroom was in good shape except for a sour smell from the shower drain. Our attendant worked and worked on this, and improved matters a bit, but really, it was only a matter of leaving the bathroom door ajar, to air out a bit. I do appreciate that the Infinity has diagonal bars on the bathroom doors so they will stay open despite the movement of the ship.
We were in 7187, a C3 cabin. It's above one of the suites and there's a bit of awning directly below the balcony. Comfortable room, lots of storage space, a sour stale smell in the shower drain. A quiet location, and a quick two flights of stairs to the main dining room.
