I will quickly say that the cruise was great and not to get too negative as you read some of these reviews. Prior to leaving I read many reviews and almost convinced myself that I had made a mistake by booking this cruise. The food was great, the service was great, and the ship was great. I cant see how people nit pick some of these minor items, you're on vacation RELAX! We took an Uber to the ship from FLL and were on board in probably 30-40 minutes. Did we wait in line a little, yes, but thats normal when you need get 3000 people on board. The ship was clean and well kept, people were cleaning the ship around every corner. The stops on this cruise were great too, we especially liked the overnight. We arent huge drinkers other than a beer sometimes at the pool and a bottle of wine at dinner. The shows and performers were good too. I heard people rave about the tenors of rock in the end they are just ok. I also heard people complain about the production shows being hard to follow. They are actually pretty easy to follow its not that hard to understand the seasons changing. I also read that the songs were terrible, not true. We recognized almost every song as they are popular current hits ( i think the older age group doesnt know them). Overall the cruise was great and celebrity didn't disappoint. People also said they would push specialty restaurants and drink packages, yes they did as but you can say 'no thanks' and its a simple answer and they dont ask you again. It didnt happen that much. Anyway, i think people look for things to pick at, enjoy the cruise and stop the negativity.
