This was our first Celebrity Cruise. In our younger days, we were on Carnival and NCL. This is our first time on a cruise ship in 8 years, and figured that since Celebrity was more expensive, their would be fewer kids, less noise, and better service.

We booked an Aft AquaClass cabin, #9276, directly through Celebrity's 800 number. We were traveling with another couple who was a few cabins down. Our booking included the Classic drink package and basic wifi. We upgraded to the Premium wifi package.
