Review summary

The staterooms were very comfortable and clean including all public areas. The food was very good.

Guest relations were very acommodating if there was issues.  

We were told formal nights required a jacket and tie..after renting a jacket we saw numerous men entering the dining room without ties and jackets.

The checkin process to get on the ship was chaotic and unorganized..people weren't funneled correctly to appropriate lines.

Thank you for posting your review.  I'm wondering who told you about the jacket and tie... Celebrity shifted to evening chic in the MDR months ago.  Always consult the cruise line directly for information rather than relying on other sources because things change and the cruise line is the best source of accurate information. The FAQs include detail about Evening Chic at http://www.celebritycruises.com/frequently-asked-questions#faq478. 

Formal Night gets a modern luxury reboot. Say goodbye to Formal Night, and hello to Evening Chic. It’s your time to shine—your way. Get glamorous. Get chic. Be sophisticated. Now, on up to two nights on every cruise, Evening Chic activities have been introduced, and Evening Chic attire has replaced Formal attire. While dressier than Smart Casual, Evening Chic is intended to be less dressy than Formal attire.

Women should feel comfortable wearing:

A cocktail dress Skirt, pants or designer jeans with an elegant top

Men should feel comfortable wearing:

Pants or designer jeans with a dress shirt, button-down shirt or sweater Optional sport coat or blazer

Evening Chic means that you can get glamorous and be sophisticated in your own way. If you would like to still wear a tuxedo or formal gown on Evening Chic nights, you absolutely should.

All cruises that are 7 nights or longer will feature two Evening Chic nights. Any cruise 6-nights or shorter will feature one Evening Chic night. All other nights of the cruise will feature Smart Casual attire. Celebrity Xpedition will continue to feature casual attire for the entire cruise.

Smart Casual attire can be enjoyed every other night of your cruise.

Women should feel comfortable wearing: 

Skirt, pants or jeans with a casual top

Men should feel comfortable wearing:

Pants or jeans with a sport shirt that has sleeves

Note: T-shirts, swimsuits, robes, bare feet, tank tops, baseball caps and pool wear are not allowed in the main restaurant or specialty restaurant at any time. Shorts and flip-flops are not allowed in the evening hours. The dress code will be enforced at all restaurants. And guests are asked to follow the Smart Casual or Evening Chic dress code in the Celebrity Theater for all evening performances. The daily program, delivered to your stateroom and available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening.

Hopefully that helps for your next cruise :)
