Mixed feeling about this cruise celebrity could and has done much better than this. The ship is understaffed and attitudes was poor at best in part due to the extra cleaning required due to previous cruise have a flu outbreak (not my problem)Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Luminae
It's a family style serving that was very good. We did lunch and dinner here and got great food and service. Unfortunately, you have to pay extra for this venue. The included venues are no where near the same as those you pay extra for which is disappointing
Onboard Activities
Fortune's Casino
Service was okay Randy was great! The machines didn't pay well and the table game were typical of cruise ships.

Ship tip
Stop nickel and dining us to death. Offer an inclusive package so it's not so irritating during the cruise. Would like to have gotten a message but your outrageous pricing turned me off. The excursions were pathetic. I won't ever book them again. Found the same excursion for 15% the cost on the dock. Several excursions were 3 hours driving and 20 minutes at the attraction
