Creator's Key Takeaways

This is our first time ever on a celebrity cruise ship. And she is bougie and beautiful. World class.

I am so excited right now. This does not feel real.

It is Christmas on Celebrity Beyond or Celebrity Excel. Sorry, wrong cruise ship.

This is definitely a lot less people than the Oasis class ships. Definitely less crowded.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Book a room with a balcony for a better view during sail away.
โœ“Try the chocolate lava cake for dessert at Normandy restaurant.

Hey Girl, I vlog Boarding the Celebrity Xcel in today's video. I recently took a trip to Celebrity Xcel this winter and absolutely loved the brand new cruise ship! It also made it extra special that we loaded for the first ever Christmas cruise. Today I get to show you many incredible things like what it looks like at the port of Fort Lauderdale, the incredible inside cabin, the brand new theater, eating at normandy and so much more! As an avid Royal Caribbean cruiser I was so excited to try out their sister line and we compare the two a little in this video. I highly recommend this amazing brand new cruise ship and can't wait to show you the rest of the holiday vacation! Hey girl! Welcome to my channel, CayCayette. Come and follow along as I talk about cedar point, cruising, makeup, and everything else in between. Come join along as we go through my crazy life!
