Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm actually with the Greeks. Give me Celebrity any day.

I paid $937 for two people for a week on the Celebrity Eclipse. That's US dollars. US dollars. $937, which is a steal.

The Edge class is perhaps the perfect cruise ship interior wise.

I would say that that a cheaper cabin on Edge is going to be a far superior experience to going on to a lot of the other lines and a lot of the other ships.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book an ocean view cabin on deck 3 of Celebrity Edge class for a great value experience.
Consider inside cabins on newer ships; they are spacious and often have virtual balconies.
Stick with a favorite ship and line to build loyalty benefits.
