Refined elegance
March
Pros: Good food, excellent service. Great entertainment. Stunning ship!
Cons: 2 rather than 3 elevators(the usual) can make for a long walk. The Infinite balconies is not for everyone. Smpunts yo more cabin space bs try being able to be outdoors. I also don’t like there being no Skypunge area in front of the ship to see ahead.
Recommended: Yes
Overall a very good, classy ship.

Excellent Destinations but Crowded
September
Pros: Beautiful Ports of Call
Cons: Too Many Passengers and Bad Wifi
Recommended: Yes
Re: Wifi - Celebrity should NOT even offer this Basic package, which meant nothing other than texts on WhatsApp worked. Texting through Kakao Talk, e.g., broke down for some folks. No video and no photos. What kind of useless Wifi is it in this day and age? It's a shame even to refer to it as "Wifi." You should call it WhatsApp Texting. Better yet, don't offer the Basic package. Food was generally good, but salty. Need to use less salt. In places like Portofino, releasing close to 3000 people from Edge into tiny towns like that really could not be managed well. At Palma, we had Edge and MSC, where passengers came off the ship almost the same time (8000 people?). Celebrity needs to rethink these ports and their ships and coordination w/ other cruise lines for crowd mgmt. Not sure what % of people from Celebrity went to Cinque Terre from La Spezia (we did), but some of these tiny towns were just being overrun by people. And, I suspect Edge played a fairly significant role in adding to the crowd issue. For these small towns like Portofino and Cinque Terre, Celebrity needs to offer smaller ships.

Southern Caribbean Panama Canal
February
Pros: Entertainment. Stateroom. Staff.Eden. Cruise and Director. Ship Activities.
Cons: Restaurant reservation system. Excursions that promote purchases, poor value.
Recommended: Yes
Cleanliness of ship exceptional. Entertainment was as good as we have ever seen. Friendly staff. Giuseppe stands out as one of the best cruise directors we have had! Excursion value in all ports on the ship should be addressed. Additional area to get speciality coffees.

Edge
February
Pros: New ship, very different in features and design
Cons: Way too many guests, did not like the fact you had no Verhanda
Recommended: No
I love Celebrity brand, however I did not enjoy this ship. Too many people, took forever to get elevators, food was mediocre at best, did not have a main dining room, 4 smaller restaurants requiring reservations. Could not find brochure in room that explained the ship and where to find things, charge for room service (other than continental breakfast), never saw SR leaders around the ship. Music in all venues was very loud.

Has the Edge
January
Pros: Food, entertainment, ship layout , friendly employees
Cons: Pre cruise reservations, hygiene
Recommended: Yes
Food was amazing! Entertainment was mostly great. Loved the ship and the employees. The pre cruise reservations for specialty restaurants was horrendous. They have to figure this out. Had sinks to wash hands going into buffet but no one washed. Have to force that.
