Creator's Key Takeaways

After 39 Royal Caribbean cruises, I finally tried Celebrity for the first time.

The food was incredible. The ship was stunning.

Celebrity caters to an older crowd who appreciate the quieter, more refined atmosphere.

If you're a foodie, Celebrity is going to make you happier than Royal Caribbean.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Ask yourself what kind of vacation you are looking for before booking Celebrity.
If you don't have a drink package on Celebrity, prepare for sticker shock and consider getting one.
Give Celebrity a try, especially with the status match program.
