Creator's Key Takeaways

So far, we are absolutely loving it. Loving the Celebrity brand, but also the ship itself.

I think that this is probably the most beautiful ship that we've ever been on.

It's probably better than Royal Caribbean.

We have heard that you can ask for mattress toppers. I just don't want to make our guy do that.

βœ“Book your cruise with Cruises.com using promo code 'Sisters50' for $50 onboard credit.
βœ“Get to shows early to secure good seats, especially for limited-seat performances.
