Celebrity Summit Review

Background
My wife and I are in our early 60’s . This was our first cruise with Celebrity which sailed from San Juan on November 23, 2013. Having read the reviews of our itinerary which included stops at St. Croix, St. Kitts, Dominica, Grenada, and St. Thomas I had a feeling that I was going to be bored with some of our ports of call. What I learned is that what you do on these islands can really change these preconceived notions.
We flew from Chicago to San Juan on JetBlue the day of the cruise. I booked this reservation using Expedia. This is not a good idea because if the plane had been delayed and the ship has sailed, I would had to pay to get to the next island to catch the ship. I understand this happened to several individuals on our cruise. However, if you book your flight through Celebrity they guarantee to get you to the ship at no additional charge.
Cabin Review
StateroomWe had a Concierge room on deck 9. Yes we did hear some squeaky noises but nothing that kept us awake. We never had much contact with our stateroom attendant but the room was always promptly taken care of. If you had to find something wrong with the room the bottom of our shower had some paint peeling off. As far as we could tell the rest of the cabin was in perfect shape. The next class up from us was Aqua. The only real advantage we could see for going up in class was a slightly bigger cabin and access to the Blu restaurant.
