Thank you all so much. This is helpful. I was originally leaning towards the 11 night Adriatic but then wasn’t sure if the 3rd night at sea was ideal and saw that the Constellation tends to get better reviews than the Infinity although that might be a minor difference. I really appreciate hearing everyone’s experiences. I was also trying to decide on balcony or just ocean view. I’ve never had a balcony and like the idea but also wasn’t sure how much it would be usable this time of year and there are limited selections available. It’s about $1000 cheaper for the oceanview vs balcony. Thoughts on that?

I haven’t been on a cruise in a long time and my husband has never been on one. I’m looking at 2 different Celebrity European cruises and trying to determine if there’s a reason to do one over the other. I’ve been on RC, Norwegian and Disney and we prefer good food although don’t need gourmet, solid entertainment and aren’t partiers. We’re mainly looking at a cruise ship as a moving hotel with dining included;) https://www.celebritycruises.com/itinerary-details/11-night-adriatic-med-from-athens-piraeus-greece?groupId=IN11ATH-1039355710&packageID=IN11M281&sDT=2024-11-04&cCD=CO https://www.celebritycruises.com/itinerary-details/10-night-rome-to-barcelona-cruise-from-rome-civitavecchia-italy?groupId=CS10ROM-987288726&packageID=CS10M346&sDT=2024-10-28&cCD=CO Prices are very similar, the Infinity has an extra sea day which I don’t know we need but it is cheaper. Any reason you would chose one over the other? I’ve also considered this Norwegian. The couple of Norwegian cruises I’ve been on I thought the food was mediocre compared to RC and Disney so was leaning toward one of the Celebrity cruises. https://www.ncl.com/cruises/9-day-mediterranean-round-trip-barcelona-italy-france-and-spain-ESCAPE9BCNCEQLIVCIVNAPCAGPMIIBZBCN?destinations=4294949354,4294949395,4294949385&sailMonths=4294949362,4294949361&numberOfGuests=4294949461&stateroomcategorymeta=4294949452&sortBy=price&autoPopulate=f&from=resultpage&itineraryCode=ESCAPE9BCNCEQLIVCIVNAPCAGPMIIBZBCN
