Creator's Key Takeaways
Premium cruising isn't a slightly better version of a mass market. It's a completely different product.
I found a seat by the floor to ceiling window at the back of the ship, watching the ocean go by. And something dawned on me. Nobody had tried to sell me anything in days.
On Celebrity Apex, I never once felt pressured to reserve a chair. I simply walked up and sat down.
The coffee on Celebrity, I was actively looking forward to my next cup. Actual grinder, actual beans, real coffee included, no charge.

Why would anyone pay more for a premium cruise when there are so many cheaper options? After spending a week on Celebrity Apex, I finally understood. What surprised me most is that premium cruising isn’t just an upgraded version of a mass-market cruise. It’s a completely different experience. It’s not one big upgrade. It’s 50 small upgrades. The luggage I'm using throughout this cruise is from Level8. I've found it durable, lightweight, and ideal for cruise travel.

The coffee is better. The food is better. The cabins feel more refined. The public spaces are quieter. The ship feels less crowded. The entertainment is more unique. The atmosphere is calmer. The service feels more personal. Even the design, artwork, and finishes throughout the ship create a different feeling. On Celebrity Apex, those small improvements add up to something much bigger than the sum of their parts. In this video, I take you around Celebrity Apex and explain where the extra money goes, what makes premium cruising different, and whether I think it’s actually worth paying more. From the cabins and complimentary dining to the entertainment, atmosphere, service, and over 4,000 pieces of art displayed throughout the ship, I’ll show you why Celebrity Cruises changed my mind about premium cruising.
