Celebrity Infinity Cruise Critique.
We just returned from a 14-day
voyage aboard the Celebrity Infinity. Beginning March 28th,
2010 Ft. Lauderdale, and passing the Panama Canal, Costa
Rica, Columbia and Mexico completing our journey on April
11, 2010. We are somewhat disappointed with the experience
in many ways. We’ve been on a number of cruses on Princess
and Royal Caribbean and we enjoyed the cruise experience
with those cruise lines.,
The crew and staff were professional and welcoming second to
none. To a person they couldn’t do enough for you!
The veranda rooms were tired: dirty couches and unstable
tiles in the bathroom. The balcony carpets were stained and
old. .
All food service and
entertainment was geared to the Super, super, senior
demographic. 75+ We are in our 60’s and young contemporary
progressive spirits. We would have enjoyed more
contemporary entertainment as well as menus. Big Bands, Show
Tunes, Trivia Games were greatly enjoyed by many of our
fellow travelers. Entertainment was generations in content.
Movies were at 6:30 and 9:00 …. the dinner hour. I would
have enjoyed a film in the late am or early pm.
Food service… Yikes!. The food was spotty in quality. The
menus were repetitive. Flavors and texture were bland, over
salted, and many times overcooked. I lost a few pounds on
this trip! Food service availability was highly structured
i.e., prior to shore excursions lunch was not available.
For example: excursion meeting time at noon, late
breakfast ended at 11:30 and lunch started at noon. This
was annoying. This ship is not geared for select dining
(any time between 6-9:30pm) They are geared for the
traditional two dinner seatings.
We contacted the Noro Virus and were confined to our cabin
for 24 hours. We were very pleased with the medical
attention and care given at the ship’s infirmary.
In summary I wouldn’t ever consider traveling on this cruise
line again.
