Just returned from a 12 day European cruise on the Celebrity Equinox out of Barcelona- which in general was a wonderful trip. Having sailed on the Equinox 2 years ago on a 10 day Italy/Greek Island Cruise, I think we have a good frame of reference about the ship, and some changes.
Our background: We were a group of 6 in our late Forties to early Sixties… several are in the Food business, so this was a particular area of interest for us. We have cruised together in the past on both Celebrity, last year we did a Silversea cruise, as well as sailing on Princess, Cunard and several other cruise lines.
Overall Impression: The ship is in good shape, a tiny bit of wear and tear, but pretty much what I expected overall. There were some slight changes as I think the makeup of the staff and some of the promotions they are doing has made a bit of a difference in service.
