BrianAlt Posted August 30, 2017 Report Posted August 30, 2017 Since the other area ignores non-Royal Caribbean cruises, I figured I'd start one for Celebrity and Azamara. So, what cruises do you all have planned on Celebrity and Azamara? If we get enough, I'll set up a list like is done for Royal Caribbean cruises. Quote
BrianAlt Posted August 30, 2017 Author Report Posted August 30, 2017 I have the following cruises booked on Celebrity: Celebrity Reflection: May 28, 2018 Celebrity Edge: March 3, 2019 Quote
Boston Babe Posted August 30, 2017 Report Posted August 30, 2017 I am on The Equinox January 26, 2019 and again on Equinox April 27, 2019!!! Wanted the Edge, but the category I wanted had obstructed view so I wasn't going to spend all that money for an obstructed view, hoping to get on her in August in she's still in the USA. Eventually I will! Would love to see Celebrity Blog!! MamaShark and BrianAlt 1 1 Quote

rjweber3 Posted September 3, 2017 Report Posted September 3, 2017 Celebrity Infinity, 15 night Panama Canal. Really looking forward to it. This is our first Celebrity experience. Infinity appears to be about the size of Radiance Class. True? How are these ships? We like Radiance class on Royal. Eaglelover 1 Quote

Yes, that's about true in terms of size and passengers. I've been on Summit, not Infinity. I like the ship a lot! Shows some wear, but still does a great job. Quote
janza Posted November 8, 2017 Report Posted November 8, 2017 Booked Edge for Jan 6, 2019. Got Infinite Veranda as all suites were booked WE are mostly RC too, but Love that you started this! Prefer this site over CC. Quote

As @JLMoran mentions we've got quite a bit of coverage on the podcast (and the blog), plus more to come covering specific topics and venues. Overall we loved it and can't wait to go back in 25 days!

rjweber3 Posted December 21, 2018 Report Posted December 21, 2018 Just booked a 10 day England and Ireland cruise on Reflection. But its not until May 2020. Snagged a Sky Suite facing aft on Deck 12. We love to sit on the balcony and watch the wake. Boston Babe 1 Quote
JLMoran Posted January 5, 2019 Report Posted January 5, 2019 I will be on Celebrity Summit on August 2, 2020 for my long-hoped-for and dreamed-of 50th birthday celebration trip. It's a 14-night transatlantic voyage (8 port days, 6 sea days) going to Nova Scotia, Greenland, and Iceland before ending in Dublin. It will encompass a number of firsts: First time on Celebrity First transatlantic cruise First time in Iceland (bucket list item!!) First time NS, Greenland, or Ireland (not bucket list, but way cool) Really looking forward to this, especially as Summit will only be a year post-refurbishment; not exactly "new ship smell", but exciting to think about! And we may stay a few extra days in Ireland, as none of us have ever been there and my wife has cousins there who she hasn't seen since the last time they came to the US; but we'll figure that part out down the road. We've got... 575 days(!!!) until boarding day. A new personal record! It will be another six days before I actually have it booked (waiting for my card to cycle), but given that my whole family is on board and I have the cabin selection figured out, I'm fine with saying it now. And if you can't start the countdown until it's booked, it'll still be a record at 569 days. melski94, Eaglelover, mom2mybugs and 3 others 5 1 Quote
JLMoran Posted January 5, 2019 Report Posted January 5, 2019 @Matt, can we get this post pinned the way the other "When Is Your Next Cruise" post in People Connect forum is pinned? We're actually getting a decent number of items here, now. FlowBro Ty 1 Quote
Lovetocruise2002 Posted January 5, 2019 Report Posted January 5, 2019 Awesome news @JLMoran. That is a great itinerary! If only it wasn't cold...the word "Ice" is not doing it for me JLMoran 1 Quote

You have enough ice now where you are anyway! LOL The Iceland people are some of the most beautiful you've ever seen, it's scary really, like Stepford Wives! No one is unattractive there! LOL Quote

KathyC Posted January 6, 2019 Report Posted January 6, 2019 Our first Celebrity will be the Summit in October 2019. She should still have the new smell, I hope! We're doing a repo from Bayonne to San Juan. We booked Aquaclass for a super cheap rate - less than an inside on RCCL so we are very excited to try it and Blu. Quote

Will get a hold Thursday ahead of my card cycling Friday. Thankfully the two inside rooms I’m looking at are in a location that most people probably aren’t in favor of taking because of noise risks. If you look at my other thread “Would you book these inside cabins” on this board, you’ll see a pic of where those rooms are plus the discussion around them as “likely safe”. If date decides I’m not to get those two rooms, I’ll deal with the (probably small, in the end) annoyance of being on deck 2 mid-ship, or I’ll take a more forward inside cabin on deck 7. I’ll still be on the cruise and enjoying all those ports! The Cruise Junkie 1 Quote

Jedi Jason Posted February 12, 2019 Report Posted February 12, 2019 I recently booked my next one for January 4, 2020. It's a 5 night western Caribbean with stops in Cozumel and Key West on Equinox. My only other Celebrity cruise was one of the 3 night Bahamas preview sailings on Edge this past December 6. Quote

KathyC Posted February 17, 2019 Report Posted February 17, 2019 Summit has picked up her construction crew and is heading toward Freeport for her total refurb. Can't wait to see pictures of the progress! Loving the little bits and pieces we're getting from Millennium as she's having her first sailing. Quote
