Review summary

Many more people cruising therefore staff doing there best to keep up! Celebrity needs to think twice before they make cuts & drink changes!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Had to go back downstairs due to check in putting wrong picture with the wrong person

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
We had just cruises this ship in February! Lots of menu & quality cut backs! Ocean view actually was serving bologna sandwiches! No longer meat & cheese so you can make your own sandwich! A lot of dishes were on last nights menu! Total menu revamp for World Class bar menu! No longer serve the strawberry fields drink! Myra I was the only venue they haven’t made cuts on yet! Hope they leave that alone! Who decides to make these changes have to be the accountants!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Captain club events still are going on but very limited snacks! Gifts for wining activities were really cheap!

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Went to a few shows but times conflicted with dining times!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Room stewards, waiters and wine stewards were great and doing there best to keep up! Martini bar lacked enough bar tenders & servers! They were making the drinks in the back room! We finally found the sky bar had the best bartenders and drinks!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Obviously sick passengers on board! Need to go back to COVID testing to get on board!

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Overall good cabin. Liked the bed by the window. Really nice large balcony. Would recommend!

Ship tip

Be prepared to get sick! Too many passengers notably sick!
