We read all the reviews well before taking this cruise to Iceland, Faroe islands, Geiranger Fjord, Flam, Stavanger and Kristiansand, so we were really looking forward to that 'modern luxury'. We had already been on various RCI cruises and are Diamond so wanted to retain that, and Celebrity lets us use that status as Elite which is why we decided to try them out.

The on-line check in is pretty much the same as we were used to, but did notice that we now have to print our own tickets (more cost cutting?) but no matter all the paper work was done in advance of the day (including ordering the luggage tags) so we were prepared.

We did find the Cruise Critic boards a great source of not just information but a very good way of 'breaking the ice', organisation and a great laugh.

Cabin Review

Inside Stateroom 9

Cabin 09

Quiet location, the largest inside that we have had. Good bathroom with nice amount of space. Small drawers for you smalls, with only two cupboards above the bed for the rest of the non hangerbles... fine if you are tall. Not a lot of space on the vanity units and only the one chair. It seems a lot of space not used. Tea and coffee making which was topped up daily, but with that long life milk. Nice choice in the mini bar if thats your thing, but again expensive way to do it. Hair dryer was ok. Ample space under the beds for the empty luggage cases.
