SHIP We have been cruising since the early 1990's long before Cruise Critic appeared and the Equinox is the largest ship on which we have sailed to date.
EMBARKATION
This was very efficient and stress-free. Our flight left Toronto a little after 07:00, and we were enjoying lunch in the AquaSpa Cafe at 12:30! Transfer from Fort Lauderdale Airport was fast and efficient, and the cruise check-in was very smooth. Celebrity has photographers on duty if you feel the need to have your picture taken, but unlike those from other cruise lines, Celebrity's photographers are polite and willing to take "No thank you" for an answer. They never bothered us on this trip.
Our cabin was spacious and conveniently arranged. One nice touch; the light in the bathroom has a night-light feature, which helps you navigate the cabin safely without disturbing your partner after lights-out. There is plenty of storage space and a small safe. Height of storage space over the bed makes it difficult to access. Prepare for long walks to access dining facilities in the aft decks.
