You will probably love Celebrity. I can’t say if the excursions are more or less expensive though, because it would be hard to have two equivalent ones to compare head to head. You should be able to request table side….four being easier to request than two. Solstice is a great ship, so don’t hesitate to book it.
you will be Elite so be sure to set that up before you go since it isn’t automatic. No welcome gift in the room though.
what itinerary are you looking at?
