With so many great cruise lines from which to choose, why Celebrity?

The answer comes down to you.

Are you someone who demands the coolest new ride?  Perhaps a laser tag arena, go-kart racetrack, sky diving wind-funnel or roller coaster?

If yes, then Celebrity may NOT be for you.

Do you prefer to wear swim trunks and a tee-shirt to dinner, choose a fun pizzeria over a nice restaurant with attentive waitstaff every time, and brightly colored decor with lots of fun touches over sophisticated elegance?

If yes, then Celebrity is NOT right for you.

Do you enjoy the finer things in life, as long as you don't have to pay a lot more?

Then Celebrity probably is right for you.

With elegant decor, outstanding service, delicious meals and country club casual attire always the order of the day, many of us feel very comfortable aboard Celebrity Cruises, but may not be perfect for everyone.

The dining room experience is excellent.  Then again, the classy buffet serving stations by menu have perhaps the best layout of mainstream cruise ships, so wanting to dine casual is not a hard no.

Celebrity Entertainment shines, whether in the showroom or in lounges.

Celebrity has always been a line that would comfortably fit into an "Architectural Digest" pictorial about large cruise ships with class, and their newest ships are no exception.

The Edge-class innovation of Infinite Verandas takes a page from French Balconies on river cruise ships to allow the stateroom itself to open up to the great outdoors.

Suites are treats, but for those who aren't quite ready to fork out the big bucks, there are Concierge Class and Aqua Class Verandas.

These Veranda rooms are in the preferred Veranda locations, plus they have extra touches that make them special.  In addition to a Concierge to handle things like booking tender tickets, alternative dining reservations or shore excursions for you, there are nice touches in your room, such as a pillow menu, fresh cut flowers, fruit and other nice items that are usually found only in suites.

Aqua Class is for people who want special access to spa services.  Aqua Class guests have their own private dining room, Blu.  Exclusively for Aqua Class, you have a table available every evening, whenever you choose to dine.  Blu replaces the main dining room for Aqua Class.

But if you have the main dining room, that is a treat in its own right.

And if you want a Suite, Celebrity has several excellent choices.

The only question --- if you are someone who Celebrity would fit like a glove --- is where to cruise?

Celebrity has wonderful itineraries around the world.

If you are a past guest of Royal Caribbean, then your equivalent benefit level applies at Celebrity, but the points are not merged. 

An advantage Celebrity has over Royal Caribbean currently is the ability to roll Classic Beverage package and Wi-Fi into the price with "All Included."  You will know if this is right for you based on relative pricing for the cruise you choose.

Let me help you find the right trip for you.
