Kinda amazing how much more modern this looks than something like a Carnival or RCL ship from the same year. And how much more complete Celebrity renovations are. They literally gutted and rebuilt every stateroom last renovation.
We have sailed on most of the major cruises lines and hands down, the Celebrity Equinox is our favorite ship! Just the right size, great mix of people, and love all the little live music spots that pop up in the evening. So miss her! Thanks boys, for the wonderful tour of our grand old gal.
Thanks for the tour! I loved my cruise on the Equinox and have another planned for 2024. One of my favorite, less crowded lounge areas is the deck in front of the gym. It's very windy, but such a wonderful view and a nice area to cool down after and realx with a fabulous view of the sunrise after an early morning workout.
My Fiancé and I just booked a 10-day cruise from Fort Lauderdale with this ship; this will be our first cruise! Definitely have to thank you for your amazing content to help decide what we wanted! Looking forward to more content!
The Solsttice ships have both a Grand Foyer and an atrium. The elevator part is the atrium, the stairs and areas around them in the open 3 deck area is the Grand Foyer. The Millennium Class has only the Grand Foyer. The Edge class has the Grand Plaza. Sky Lounge is mostly open to all passengers, not just CC members. Maybe an hour or two it was open to just CC members but it wasn't a restricted area at any time AFAIK. The Retreat Lounge at one time was Michael's and it was open to everyone. It was a very English gentleman's club like atmosphere.
I am rewatching this video after knowing we are going on the ship with Ya'll on the group cruise next year. Beautiful and I can't wait. May is a long way away........LOL....
Thank you for the great tour! I love your tours as they are informative but always positive! We are going on the Equinox 9 day Mediterranean cruise in 7/24. I watched other reviews that said it was a let down after the Edge. I feel better now! Thank You! :)
HI GUYS !!! She’s almost identical to the Eclipse. ❤️❤️❤️Celebrity . My husband and I are cruising in November on the Summit out of Miami for 5 days in a sky suite. I CAN’T WAIT !! 😊
This cruise was unique for us as we had AquaClass. The food in Blu was some of the best food we’ve ever had at sea! At our end of year review, we gave Equinox’e Blu our Award for Best Specialty Dining Experience for the year! Delish 😋
We agree!! Although they are different, every class of Celebrity (minus the expedition ships) feels similar which is really great since they are so nice!! 🥳
Hi guys! ..heading out on equinox ABC'S nxt week.. really hoping celeb hasn't cut corners as much as rest of lines layely..🤞. Oct 4,23.. there taking tips off all inclusive pkg 😢. Thanx for all the info..!
REflection has some significant differences. SKy Lounge is smaller on the Reflection. There is no Quasars. Martini Bar is a little different. The REflection is bigger.
@@JJCruise though I think classic beverage package does include Cafe Al Bacio! At least it did when I was on Millennium this summer…when they all knew my order and name before I got there! 😂😂
Just got off of the Solstice and now have to wait 209 days to be on the Equinox. What to do during the 209 day wait!? Thanks for giving us something to look forward to.
Why no tour of the Luminae restaurant and The Retreat? Since those has to be added in the remodel, I was curious to see how they compared to the ones on the EDGE and APEX.
Thanks for the video, Jordan . Is the casino smoke free?? Thanks. We will be on the equinox in 5 weeks. Cant wait. Cigarette smoke bothers my allergies so i was just wondering. Thanks so much.
Great question! Equinox definitely had an older crowd for our sailing because it was 12 nights. We found the same on Constellation which was a 10 night sailing. For 20’s audience, we highly recommend 7 nights on Apex or Edge or 3/4/5 night sailings on any of the Celebrity Ships. They will tend to have a younger crowd and more activities per day. 😉
Why do you call it a bathroom instead of a restroom? If it's in public, it's not a bathroom. In English, it's either a restroom, washroom, WC, or lavatory... not a bathroom.
@@coffeefeind2220 This is a cultural nuance that differentiates societal and educational attainment levels. Higher socio-economic classes are more likely to differentiate between seemingly synonymous nouns such as “bathroom” and “restroom”, whereas lower socioeconomic classes, minority groups, and second generation immigrants are not.

We call it bathroom because that’s what we grew-up with. To you or someone else, you may want to call it a restroom. Either way, everybody poops and we use a bathroom/restroom to do so because we are all the same, human. 😉

Great point! They really focus on all aspects 😊
Your ship tours are always where I go to check out a ship! You do a great job.

We love her too!! Thank you for watching and commenting your thoughts!! 🤗🥳
Just got off this ship and O loved it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Really enjoyed watching this ship tour. Thanks for sharing the details!
Thank you for watching!! We love your channel! 🤗❤️
What a fantastic review of everything on Equinox. Thank youvery much
Thank you for watching and commenting your kind words!! 🤗
This ship looks gorgeous!
The renovations make it sparkle too!
This Revolution really did level-up this ship!!

Yes! Great spot indeed! Thanks for sharing! 🤗
Thank you! It was a comprehensive tour. I feel as though I can get on this ship and be comfortable.
Love the Equinox! I hope to be sailing on her this year. Thank you for the visual souvenir! My God the blue water with the green grass! 😍😍
Isn’t it gorgeous!! 😍 Thanks for watching 🤗

The ship is gorgeous. I miss seeing the ocean from a ship. So jealous. Enjoy your cruise.
Thank you!! We love the view as well! 🤗🥳
You both give the best tours!!!!! I always check out what you have posted before I go on a new ship. Thank you!!
We are so glad to hear!! Thank you for the kind feedback! 🤗🥳
Thank you so much! We are on the Equinox May of 2023 and greatly looking forward to it! Very much enjoyed your tour.
Thanks for watching!! Equinox is one wonderful classic cruise ship! 🥳

Thanks Mary! The Edge Class is our favorite class of cruise ship ever. So it was a let-down in comparison, but still a wonderful cruise. ☺️
Thank you fir this full tour of the Equinox! Helping me get psyched for my cruise on Equinox next month!!
Thank you for watching! Enjoy your cruise!! 🚢🤗👍🏽
haven't even watched it yet but THANK YOU!!!! thanks jj cruise just finished and it was worth all your hassle!!!
Yay we are so glad to finally get it working!! 🤗🥳
HI GUYS !!! She’s almost identical to the Eclipse. ❤️❤️❤️Celebrity . My husband and I are cruising in November on the Summit out of Miami for 5 days in a sky suite. I CAN’T WAIT !! 😊
I don't think Eclipse has been refurbished like Equinox.
It was suppose to be revolutionized but Covid reared it’s ugly head 😔
Hey Guys , thank you for another great tour video ! Safe travels to New Orleans
Thank you!! 🤗🥳
unless something has changed since lockdown I have always been able to get Most of the speciality coffees on my classic package ?? .Great tour thanks
Thank you for posting this video. We are sailing on the Equinox in September. What did you think of the dinner in the Main Dining Room?
This cruise was unique for us as we had AquaClass. The food in Blu was some of the best food we’ve ever had at sea!
At our end of year review, we gave Equinox’e Blu our Award for Best Specialty Dining Experience for the year! Delish 😋
Love the Equinox! My favorite ship!
The ship is looking great. Thank you so much for the tour.😎
Thank you for watching and commenting!! 🤗🥳
Celebrity adult solarium is our favorite!! Plus the martini bar!!!! We went on the Edge and I would love to explore some of the other Celebrity ships
We agree!! Although they are different, every class of Celebrity (minus the expedition ships) feels similar which is really great since they are so nice!! 🥳
So glad to see this going on her in 300 days. Was just on Silhouette. Pretty similar.
300 days will be here before we know it 😉
A lounge opened to Captains Club members, wouldn't be restrictive since people become members on their first cruise.
It isn’t just for cc members .. only restricted between 5-7 otherwise open for all.
Hi guys!
..heading out on equinox ABC'S nxt week.. really hoping celeb hasn't cut corners as much as rest of lines layely..🤞.
Oct 4,23.. there taking tips off all inclusive pkg 😢.
Thanx for all the info..!
Was this one crowded? Or were they still booking low capacity? We are headed there in July
Great video, I feel like I am on Reflection, except for the color decoration, it is exactly like the Reflection!
That’s what we hear! Thanks for watching! We love this ship
REflection has some significant differences. SKy Lounge is smaller on the Reflection. There is no Quasars. Martini Bar is a little different. The REflection is bigger.
Now I want Cafe Al Bacio!!
Right!?! Such an underrated part of every Celebrity Cruise 🚢
@@JJCruise though I think classic beverage package does include Cafe Al Bacio! At least it did when I was on Millennium this summer…when they all knew my order and name before I got there! 😂😂
@@JJCruise - SHhhhhhhhhhhh - It is busy enough
Included w/both packages.. however all the treats are free with cruise purchase 😋
Just got off of the Solstice and now have to wait 209 days to be on the Equinox. What to do during the 209 day wait!? Thanks for giving us something to look forward to.
Awesome ship your we will be headed to the ABC islands for 10 days
That will be amazing!! 🥳
@@JJCruise to me all cruises are amazing. Hopefully soon we will get to cruise with both of you now that will be amazing
Have a 9 day cruise in March where the B is Bahamas instead of Bonaire
Why no tour of the Luminae restaurant and The Retreat? Since those has to be added in the remodel, I was curious to see how they compared to the ones on the EDGE and APEX.
The beds on the pool deck, with red cushions...like a day bed...are they first come first serve, or are they by reservation?
Can not wait to sail in December
Have a blast!!
Thanks for the video, Jordan . Is the casino smoke free?? Thanks. We will be on the equinox in 5 weeks. Cant wait. Cigarette smoke bothers my allergies so i was just wondering. Thanks so much.
All Celebrity Cruise ships have smoke free casinos 🎰 😁 🥳
@@JJCruise good to know! Thanks for letting me know 😊
Thank you for the great tour! Is the gelato included with your cruise or is that an up charge?
Gelato is an upcharge 🍧
However, if you are part of captains club, I believe it’s a perk and you get a free serving 😋
Did you find equinox had an older crowd? Group of 4 in 20’s. Wondering if we will be bored
Great question! Equinox definitely had an older crowd for our sailing because it was 12 nights. We found the same on Constellation which was a 10 night sailing.
For 20’s audience, we highly recommend 7 nights on Apex or Edge or 3/4/5 night sailings on any of the Celebrity Ships. They will tend to have a younger crowd and more activities per day. 😉
What NCL ship you sailed on or r commend in 2002 from Florida?
Encore would be our recommendation based on our vlogger friends reviews 😊
Did they do the Silent Disco on any of the Celebrity ships?
Yes! Silent Disco has been on every Celebrity ship we’ve been on - Edge, Apex, Constellation and Equinox. 🥳🎧🎶
Yes we were just on equinox 1 week ago.
👍🏼

Must be a cultural thing in the U.S. that’s not the same in the U.K. 😅
@@JJCruise I'm from the U.S. too.... so, no it's not a cultural thing at all
@@coffeefeind2220 the US is a big place. I know lots of people in the southern US who call it bathroom, so yes, it’s a cultural thing.
