Review summary

i do not feel it's right that i could not smoke on the balcony in the open air and i was told that i could not, but on other cruise lines i was told if i did not have balcony i could not smoke and i respected that so i would book balconies from then on, and the placies they had us smokeing at had no view and it was not a nice area and when it rained you got wet, and a lot of the people who did not smoke took the chairs where you were to be smoking at and they would be where you were and a lot of people complaned and they would drink and waste it all over and a lot of people don't drink but we had to deal with that and you didn't even have a place in the casino to smoke so you stayed out of the casino and other places and because of this, but you can smell all the beer and alcohal and you don't drink and that takes away our rights as a person also, plus they could have a set floor just for smoking on the balconies and one side of the ship just for smoking they could also have ships just for that and you would have a lot more satisfied customers and maybe even more people traveling and not be so inconsiderate of those who do, but they will also sell them the carton of cigarettes to take home so now just what do you think of that, so i will not go on celebrity again unless they change there rules and then i did not find out until i got there and checked in and seen the flyer lying on the counter that i had to pick up and read, now if i had not notice the flyer, then i could have been fined thinking i could smoke on the balcony and that was not right

you were able to see a little bit more but you see more from the ship then when you go to town, because they always take you straight to shopping centers
Don't Miss: pick a different places to cruise to were you can see their customs along with shopping

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

i would quess the shopping center
Don't Miss: don't know not much to see unless you pay a arm and leg a lot of people would rather walk like me it's much better and you can take your time

San Juan, Puerto Rico

3 out of 5
only seen shopping centers not enough places to walk and see old area
Don't Miss: only the coblestone streets

Pros: the people

Cons: the fact i book a room with a balcony so i could smoke and i could not
