Review summary
Beautiful well appointed ship, easy onboarding and off-boarding, friendly and attentive staff, great food and service, spacious room and balcony, large number and wide variety of engaging lounges and bars, activities and entertainment with high quality talent.
Wide demographic of people ranging from early 30's to 80's..most seemed to be in the 50-60 years range.
Classic drink package is solid but there is a disconnect with dining room offerings which seem to be 95% oriented to premium package users leaving minimal choice for others. Cruise excursions were not exactly as described but not bad. Guest relations and excursion staff addressed a couple of issues we had quickly and effectively to our full satisfaction.
We had a fantastic time. There was always something we wanted to do with a well packed cruise defined agenda of activities to choose from. Somehow we were both incredibly busy and well relaxed at the same time.
We were skeptical first time cruisers but will no doubt be planning our next one soon.
Celebrity was an excellent choice.

Ship tip
use the stairs as much as possible to offset the amount of food and drinks you will have. leverage the daily agenda to plan you day activities ..plan an earlier dinner rather than later as most of the activities/entertainment you will want are in the evening.
