Norovirus was on previous cruise. Extra disinfectant precautions taken. Was on this cruise also. There were people sick with it. Squirted with hand sanitizer by crew in common areas. Up to you to use yourself from hand sanitizers all over the ship. Covid on cruise also. My husband tested positive when we returned. Fortunately vaccinated and boosted so mild case. We were careful. No buffet for this reason. Used the stairs to walk from deck to deck as much as possible. However crowed, packed elevators with people coughing were unavoidable at times. Celebrity should have put limit as to how many people are allowed in elevator. Yes, I know covid restrictions have been lifted. Yes, I know probably should have had mask on. That is my main recommendation…wear a mask especially in elevators.

Ship tip
Make shore excursion and dining reservations online before cruise.
Can walk around area easily from the ship. Rained and rough seas first day there, boat shore excursion was cancelled. We toured the fort and had lunch there. A few pubs/restaurants can be walked to with free internet.
Too little time in Charleston. I don’t believe Celebrity is going back there on any cruises. Pity. Beautiful city. Can easily walk to everything from the pier.
