Rare mahdnc Posted August 26, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Thank you for posting. Such impressive footage about such a depressing subject. We got to sail on her once and very much enjoyed it.

Oceangoer2 Posted August 26, 2022 #7 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Thank you for posting. Reminiscing ..... a wonderful cruise on her many years ago....my teen daughter and myself being part of a fashion show around the pool....dancing in the small cabaret....enjoying the close at hand shows and fine dining. Intimacy that's gone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damcruiser Posted August 26, 2022 #8 Share Posted August 26, 2022 How sad to be euthanized at age 30. This was our first Celebrity cruise in 1993. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirlppp Posted August 26, 2022 #9 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Thank you for posting, we sailed on the Horizon twice in the late 90's. Our first cruise with Celebrity was on the Meridian, a beautiful old ship which also had a sad ending. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Mrs_Tiki Posted August 27, 2022 #11 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Horizon was one of our first cruises in 1994, and we still talk about our amazing waiter Nenad! Sad to see her go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She set the bar very high!!!! 30 Celebrity cruises later, I have yet to have a meal that was the quality of what we first ate in the MDR (no specialty restaurants then) in 1992. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailaway Girl Posted August 27, 2022 #18 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Meridian, Horizon then Zenith. Classy ships with great food, met wonderful people, horse races, skeet shooting, great crew and staff. Made you feel like you were important and not just a number. Banana Foster and cherries jubilee, made over a flame right near your table. What elegance!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surfguyxxx Posted August 28, 2022 #20 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Celebrity Horizon was my very first cruise in December of 2003. I marveled at how huge she was and it seemed endless as it was about 11 nights or so. Absolutely loved that ship! And now, after almost 50 cruises on various cruise lines, Horizon is still my absolute favorite. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising89143 Posted August 28, 2022 #21 Share Posted August 28, 2022 She has made it to her final destination. If you look closely, you can still see the X on her funnel. Photo credit: Serkan Deniz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venicecruiser Posted August 28, 2022 #22 Share Posted August 28, 2022 It's funny, but I always liked Horizon better than Zenith which I also did a couple cruises on. They were sister ships, but I just liked Horizon a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
