paulaud Posted February 16, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Jus back this morning from a week on the Celebration. Our first time on this ship although we have cruised the Spirit in past years. Will post a full report post jet lag but suffice to say we had a fantastic time. For an old ship she brushes up well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gillhalfpint Posted February 16, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 16, 2015 So pleased you had a good time on Celebration. We are thinking of trying her soon. You were visiting some of my favourite places too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulaud Posted February 16, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted February 16, 2015 A friend was on that cruise and she has just emailed to say they had the Dreamliner to Manchester :) Your friend was correct, quite a surprise as we were scheduled to fly back on a 767. The Dreamliner was only 3 weeks old. The 767 out flew at around 480 mph whereas the 787 flew at 680. Reduced the return journey to about 7 hours. Mind you we did have a 100 mph headwind going and a 100mph tailwind on the return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had read some reviews about the 767 which came back a couple of weeks ago and was in a rather disgusting and destined for the breakers yard in a few weeks!
