Review summary
A great cruise on a sensible size ship with a fantastic staff and crew. The entertainment ranged from very good to average, with Tenors of Rock and the Simon and Garfunkel tribute duo being outstanding. We found the food to be good if not 5 star in both the main dining room and the Ocean View Café. Regrettably on occasion is was delivered only warm and not hot. The only down side was the almost continuous and very annoying up selling of Celebrity very expensive excursions, products, services and dining & beverage packages. This is now getting out of hand and is impinging on the enjoyment of cruising. I did notice that throughout the cruise almost 24/7
there was smoke emitted from the funnel something I have never seen before
