Review summary
The food was excellent.
The dining room waitor was excellent.
Oleander Cycles Rental in Bermuda was excellent.
The ship was clean.
Customer service was great.
Check-in (boarding) and check-out (diesmbarking process) quick and easy when compared to other cruises we have taken.
Ship photographers did not pester you if you said you did not want any pictures.
Parking at the pier in Bayonne, NJ was excellent and 1/2 the price of parking at the pier in New York city.
The shows on the cruise were excellent as were the "Celebrity Life" presentations made by the chief enginer and the captain of the ship.
The captain of the ship was extremely approachable and made effective use of humor to communicate with the passengers.
The WIFI Internet access on the ship is outrageously expensive and extremely slow. The prices make airline internet access look like a great bargain (even though it is not). VPN access, Skype and remote desktop are blocked.
Also, you do not get notified when the block of time you purchased has expirded. They simply start charging the per minute rate of $.75 wihtout warning.
Bermuda will tell you that the Dockyard is a WIFI hotspot. That is a myth.

Ship tip
Get to the theater early to get a good seat. If your are driving to the pier, you should consider using the self-disembark option (walk of ship with your luggage). This option is a fantastic option versus the interminable wait time encountered with the default disembarking process.
