We wanted to see the new Celebrity Edge. We were disappointed in the "new" balcony design. The balcony area has hard walls and a hard ceiling that goes all the way to a glass wall, the top half which can be lowered halfway. With this design, one does NOT get the effect of being outside. Also if you have friends/family in an adjoining cabin, you can't have a conversation with them.
I thought the "Magic Carpet" would move up and down while you were in it, but it does not move when people are in it. On the plus side, food & service were great.
The entertainment was just so-so. Very few costume changes
Did not like the balcony design.
I am a Celebrity fan, however on the Celebrity Edge, the Infinity Balcony is NOT a balcony in the usual sense; it is just a room with a large window that can be opened. Bad, bad design!! The shopping on board is only for the very, very rich. A T-shirt goes for $50!! No sales at all! The Magic Carpet is a waste of time--way to windy at most times and it only moves when NO ONE is on it! One positive, the food and service were very good.
Will never go on the EDGE again, or any sister ship.
