Review summary

After 18 cruises we have come to the conclusion that the benefits that you once received have been slowly eroded away. While the staff is so delightful and the ship so grand, it's the things that have disappeared that come to mind. Celebrity use to be at the top when it came to their food. That has slipped to the middle of the pack. I have never seen so much fatty + gristly beef. Portions are very small. If the intent is to force you into the specialty restaurants then make sure that what they serve is of a better quality than more fatty + grisly beef. The internet is slow and expensive, include it in the pricing of the cruise. Internet is a way of life.

The itinerary was very nice with many great ports of call and with many expensive shore excursion options.

My very first cruise with Celebrity was on the Horizon,11n. The Absolute Best Cruising experience EVERR!!! Nit long aftr that, RC acquired them,and it was all downhill from there. They still are tops in service and have beautiful ships. But, the food is just ok. They used to fly into just about every port, the entertainnent for the nxt night or do. Thats down to a minimum, if not completely done away with. The little things that made Celebrity stand out so far above the other main stream cruiselines, are all gone.
