Thread: Cruising on Celebrity

Yes! We've cruised them many times and have cruises booked. This April we'll be on the Eclipse transatlantic and Norwegian fjord cruises and in April of 2013, we'll be on the Solstice from Sydney to Honolulu and then Honolulu to Ensenada.

Ditto here, our favorite cruise line and it will continue to be until I can afford Regency and Crystal.

Yep, definitely our favorite.

Their new ships are awesome and we can't wait to do them again!!

We'll be trying it for the first time in May, going to Bermuda.

Getting on the Solstice this Sunday for a Carib. B2B. My favorite line in this price range. Like Solstice class, did the Aqua once, did not like it, no Aqua next week.

My favorite, just wish they would send a ship to the west coast again.

My vote is for "other" because while it is obviously a good cruise line, judging by comments by veteran cruisers, nobody seems to say anything about the daytime activities, entertainment, food, or standard balcony cabins when they list the reasons they like CC. If I am going to board a Celebrity ship someday I need to know if it is right for me because the only times I relax on vacation are at the beginning and end of the day. So my answer is I don't know if I want to sail on a Celebrity ship or not.

Most folks don't give loooong answers to posts.

PS...CC is Carnival...X is what is generally used to shorten "Celebrity Cruises". Before it was sold, Celebrity was originally called Chandris. It was founded by a Greek family named Chandris and the X is from their logo, which is the Greek letter Chi. Since it was a recognized logo they kept it.

I also love music by itself, acrobatics, and musicals I understand. (Often stories are confusing, but I love the songs and costumes.)

My concerns are about where I eat, where I sleep, and what I can do between meals. After those questions are answered I need a good itinerary - not just the ports, but also the hours in each port. That does not look so good on the Hawaii cruises, which are on the old Century, so I will keep looking.
