Review summary

The cruise wasn't too bad.  We ran into bad weather in the beginning of the week.  Celebrity cannot be blamed for this, but more should have been available to do while in the bad weather.  Dining room food was okay.  Time waiting for your food was long.  I almost prefer to go to the buffet instead of spending two hours in the dining room.  Prices on the specialty restaurants have increased to a point where it is not worth going.  Waiting at a bar for a drink was also a long wait...why bother with a package....you can't even get served quickly.  Nightly entertainment was very good.  Had to upgrade my beverage package because the liquors provided on a basic package really didn't do it for me....also no RedBull on basic package.

Ship tip

Ship is small and older. Not much to do on the ship, but the nightly entertainment was good. Too much waiting for drinks and food.

Good thing for the buffet. Not too many other positives. Sorry.
