You made a good choice in going with Celebrity. The area is called the hump. Have a good cruise.

With 3 Soltice W. Caribbean cruises under my belt, I can safely say - 'Welcome to Celebrity'. I've not cruised Princess but I have greatly enjoyed my 3 Celebrity cruises. I think you'll be happy with your decision.

 

Also, if you're remotely interested in diving or snorkeling then Grand Cayman, Cozumel, and Roatan are some great ports to visit.

We have cruised many Princess, Carnival, and once on HAL and RCCL. Cruised Solstice in April. By far the best unless you want constant kaos, head throbbing bands playing, and all day announcements plus smoke filled casinos you may not be happy.

 

Very laid back, classy, elegant, smokeless, and semi quiet. Nothing really being pushed except for the wine tastings.

We've sailed on Princess, and it is a nice line. Our first Celebrity cruise will be in the Fall. Looking forward to it!

 

Be interested to hear your comparison of Princess vs Celebrity. I'm considering a Princess cruise this summer to Alaska, but only if my preferred Celebrity Med cruise doesn't fall in to place.

Rehydra, You will have a lovely cruise!

 

I have cruised with many lines (3* to 6*) over the years and have always loved Celebrity as I think the service and food is better than the likes of Princess / RCI / (a lot) above NCL, and that is what appeals to me.

 

There was a gap of about 3yrs that I did not cruise with Celebrity, mainly because I am driven by itineraries rather than cruiselines and couldn't find anything we wanted to do; but I returned to Celebrity this May on the Eclipse, with another cruise booked on the Eclipse later this year, and I can honestly say that I really had forgotten just how good Celebrity are, and I am very pleased to be back!;)

 

Have a wonderful cruise!

Linda
