Creator's Key Takeaways

I travel a lot on Celebrity and I know exactly what I will not be purchasing on my next Celebrity Cruises

the food on Celebrity is just phenomenal

I'm done with them no more done bito I want to do small group excursions from now on

I'm not paying extra for alcohol since I already have a package

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Skip the unlimited dining plan on older ships due to limited specialty restaurants

✓Avoid the photo package as it's hard to use 300 photos and photographers are inconspicuous

✓Don't pay extra for mixology classes if you already have a beverage package

✓Choose small group excursions instead of bus excursions for a better experience

✓Consider if premium access is worth it based on your loyalty status and package

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Not knowing which excursions are bus-based — Stay away from excursions labeled 'destination highlights plus' as they are usually bus excursions

Wasting money on premium access without loyalty status — Only consider premium access if you're not in a loyalty tier and don't have the all-included package
