Review summary

We loved this cruise, the ship, and the staff.  The only issue is related to smoking.  Celebrity designated a smoking section on the jogging track, which is used to walk and run.  There are plenty of other spaces for smokers but no other space to jog.  Request to close the jogging track smoking section for a few hours early in the morning was denied by Celebrity staff.  Note that there are smoking sections on almost all levels of the ship.

Wow, that's a change! Have been on Equinox 6 times since 2014 and will sail again in January 2017. Smoking areas were small sections aft on decks 5 and 10 only,not interfering with thru traffic. Will be interested to see what we encounter. Love the Equinox!

Yeah that's a pretty bad spot to have smokers. Kind of defeats the point of exercise.
