* nice sized room for an updated interior
*very comfortable bed with nice sized flat screen tv
* small ship
* nightly entertainment in the theater was decent.
CONS:
* horrible food that made most passengers sick ( my husband got food ...
I chose the Celebrity Summit out of Bayonne because of the itinerary(Rhode Island, Martha's Vineyard, Charleston, and 2 days in Bermuda). I live in New York and I love sailing out of Bayonne. This was my second sailing with a celebrity(the first was on Beyond), I knew this was an older ship so my expectations were limited. I couldn't book my usual balcony so I was a little concerned about being in ...
We chose cruise because son and family had week off, requested us to join him and it was no fly for us, We made our reservations a couple of months before sailing date and were unable to secure early dining so relegated to anytime dining. And they would not take reservations so scheduling dinner each night with a 3 year old was a major annoyance. But we never had to wait more than 15 minutes. ...
Our 9 day cruise was much better then expected. We chose Summit because of the ports and we can drive to the terminal.
Embarkation- We arrived at the terminal around 11:30 for our noon boarding time, scanned boarding pass then walked onto the ship. The process took under 10 minutes.
Dining- We ate in the MDR 7 nights and the experience was very good. The food was well ...
As always Celebrity delivered a good cruise. We were in a Celebrity and sure lots of perks and they were great. Ship is clean and well maintained since it refurbed not to long ago but she is aging and you can see.
Officers were all over the place making their presence seen to all passengers. Seem genuine in asking what our thoughts were.
Luminae was great. You can order off any menu. ...
we choose this cruise because of our dear friends of 35 years. They had reserved this cruise several years ago and my DW and I thought we would rejoin our adventures with them. It was difficult to book a cabin 9 months out. Little did we know this itinerary was the inaugural cruise for Celebrity's to visit Greenland. Our last Inaugural cruise was the Infinity cruise to Antarctica in 2010! ...
We chose this cruise because it was an easy drive from the NE and we loved the itinerary. We have sailed with Celebrity many times but felt they missed the mark on this one. Embarkation was a breeze. We arrived 15 mins prior to our scheduled time and were able to get right onboard. We had completed the online check-in (which was very easy) and were able to get right into our room. This is where ...
Wanted to be able to drive to port and see Bermuda again so we chose this 7 day from Bayonne to Bermuda. Embarkation and debarkation went extremely smooth. Sent you to muster station as you boarded very quick check in. Dropped off bags and picked up sea passes. Started to explore ship and wanted to get a drink(non alcoholic) and noticed shortages right away. No diet soda or ice tea at the buffet, ...
My husband and I have sailed on Carnival, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian Cruise Lines. We felt it was time to experience the Celebrity difference.
We chose this itinerary because we fell in love with Bermuda when we sailed on the Norwegian Gem from Boston pre-pandemic. We flew from Toronto to Newark and stayed three nights in Manhattan prior to this cruise. We did our proctored rapid tests in ...
We had not been to Bermuda in years, so this was appealing to us. After being Diamond + on RC, we have started to lean to Celebrity after sailing The Edge. We are casino members and our casino host was delighted to book us into the Aqua Class. Although we were excited, we quickly became disappointed. Aqua class may be the top of the cake, but certainly not on the Summit. Rooms were small and ...
