YouTube Video Description

Welcome to Mer Cruises Solo! Today is boarding day in Fort Lauderdale, FL and I'll finally be stepping foot onto the amazing Celebrity Beyond! After more than 25 cruises, this is an experience I have been anticipating for SO long, not just getting to try a brand new cruise line (for me!), but also a ship that I've had my eye on since before it launched - the beautiful Celebrity Beyond! I went into this trip slightly intimidated by the size of the ship and unsure what to expect from a line I've never cruised with before. I've heard mixed reviews about solo cruising on Celebrity, but I think I can lay my concerns to rest after day one! I am booked in a Solo Infinite Veranda cabin on this cruise, so I get to experience one of very few solo staterooms that Celebrity offers. I've got mixed feelings about the room, but I'll show you everything - good and bad - in the video! Come along as I board the ship in Florida for a 6-day Caribbean Cruise; I'll show you some of my favorite areas around the ship - the endless activities, entertainment and incredible food, and it's only day one! I had such an amazing first day, despite the finicky weather! :D If you're interested in the hotel I booked, check out the link below!
