Just booked a 14 night solo Rome to Ft. Lauderdale on this ship. Food, music and best bev package. Where to eat? So many choices! It's madness! Madness I tell you!
Thank you. I always appreciate the hard work of making a cruise ship tour. I'm not looking at this ship through the eyes that others are. I'm not new to Celebrity and Celebrity is a defined product through the years. There are several types of cruisers. Some like spas and pools, some like deck activities, some like trivia, some like hanging out on their verandas for a significant time, some like eatery offerings and let's say gastronomic offerings, other like mix and mingle but that is based on a variety of tastes. It's immediately clear that who Edge is for and isn't. It's also clear that this ship has classes more than any other Celebrity ship. Regarding the ship, is it trying for a kind of Miami beach color palette? It's a lot of gray and beige and rose and champagne and soft hues compared to the bold and vibrant colors of previous classes. And style is, I don't know, I'm not sure where Celebrity has been very chic retro-modern up to and including the Solstice class. The relative strengths are for now it is high tech and new and that won't last after it's not the newest class of ship. It's full of food and really different venues and moods to take in. There are very romantic areas in the dining venues. Spa looks on point and solarium pool is really nice. Not sure of the deck areas. Suite pax get prime real estate in the upper decks. Verandas, well, that's an issue if you look traditional verandas. Meet and mingle, quite poor and maybe the worse of Celebrity class ships. 3 main areas to mix and mingle are the Martini Bar, a kind of glorified hotel lobby bar. I don't believe in the "heart of the ship" area. A ship should disburse moods and places for different types of tastes to meet and mingle, not try to condense it all into an "atrium," "foyer," or "plaza." The Club looks like a decent nightclub but is dark and uses tech to make it multipurpose. Eden is either a chill place with aft views or an activity center with shows but it is large and multitiered. So, where are the quiet or romantic lounges that are staples of ships found on Celebrity's competitors, older Celebrity classes of ships in the premium and other categories? I'm still looking for them (and they're not on the Beyond or Ascent either). Crafts Social is more a sports bar than music or mood/ambiance spot. Cafe al Bacio is a nice coffee eatery, hang out space. They're not an Ensembles lounge, Sky Lounge, Rendezvous Lounge. And if you like libraries, card rooms, dedicated comedy clubs or karaoke, there's no real dedicated space for any of that. Pick a condensed "multipurpose" social space because that's all you have, at least on the ship's interior. Ship delivers for some type of cruisers and it's new with soft-color, contemporary decor that's chic enough. For indoor mix and mingle types, sit on the veranda types, dedicated library/card game and purpose quiet spaces types, there are better alternatives. My conclusion is I prefer a more inclusive evolutionary approach with added "edge" features for new passengers vs. the shift in focus Celebrity took with these ships. They cut out some treasured areas from their previous classes and HAL and Princess did not do this in their newest classes of ships. They could have easily put in the areas that I point out are missing if they focused on it while keeping the new areas that may prove popular. I don't like all the open areas if they are the only choice. There's little charm or intimacy in them. I don't care for suite ship in a ship areas either if they take away prime real estate from the majority of ships' passengers and per the verandas (not in this video but in others), that's a deal breaker for many that prioritize traditional verandas.
Well done video. I've been on quite a few Celebrity ships but never an EDGE class. I'm considering one very soon and wanted a peek at the EDGE. I got that, and more. Now, I can't wait. Thanks.
The tonnage rating that you cite is not metric tons and not an expression of weight, which by the way does not come close to the displacement (or weight) of the USS Nimitz. The rating is Gross Tons, which is a measure of volume, not weight.
Really great review. Are you allowed to try all four main dining rooms? Do you make reservations? Will be on Edge in January on B2B and so looking forward to it.
Yes! You can try all of them. You can make a reservation for each but they do also accept some walkups. We really enjoyed the MDRs so you'll have lots of options, I'm sure you'll love it! Happy Travels Carol! 🦩
It is not EXPRESSO but Espresso. Thx for this good video. The kids area is not large as Celebrity does not really target families. The Normandy is not necessarily “Paris” inspired, but French inspired. Please don’t lump Europe all into one, There are many countries there and all are different. So the Cafe Baccio is Italian inspired. Hence the name.
It will depend on time of year / cruise length / etc so there is no single price. You can check it out on their website however for whatever dates you’ll be looking for.
We did! Not 1:1 but they did the "meet the captain" session and was great to see some of the places on the ship you can't normally go and get introduced to her and of course bug :). Have you gotten to meet her? Happy Travels Danee! 🦩
@@TravelingFlamingo ow ok because i saw most of the peoples doesn’t wearing mask, we just back from RCL cruise they still want us wearing mask in certain area, thks for your video someday i will try that cruise looks fancy n ellegant🙏🙏🙏
Happy to help! This cruise (as with many celebrity) are fully vaccinated only, so masks were not needed onboard (for those under age they had to wear them). That said you'll see at the ports you were supposed to, but I would say adherence was, low lol. Hope that helps Pearl! Happy Travels 🦩
It was fully vaccinated we also did try an unvaccinated cruise and have a comparison video. The crew of course was also fully vaccinated. Hope that helps, happy travels Marsha! 🦩
It really depends on the sailing that you are going on. Occupancy on each ship is priced for 2 so just be sure you identify how many people are going. Overall its not *that* much more expensive than others but keep in mind they tend to include a lot of things in their fare price. Hope that helps George, Happy Travels 🦩
Nice ship if you like a room with a window not a veranda. Infinate veranda is another way of saying room with a window that the ship controls. NO THANKS!

I am so envious!! That would be an amazing cruise! Thanks for watching and commenting.

The Luminea is really good as is the steak house. We even liked the buffet! If you like Indian food, it’s wonderful in the buffet.
@@Keep-on-ok Yes agree, but only for Retreat Suite guests.
@@chriswilliams6568 Exactly.
I would have loved to actually see inside the staterooms.

thank you for sharing
Can’t wait to book a cruise In 20/23
There is a lot of new great ships coming out. Happy travels 🦩
Hello, can you tell us please, the cost per person for this Cruise Ship?
Thank you, love your channel 🌟
It will depend on time of year / cruise length / etc so there is no single price. You can check it out on their website however for whatever dates you’ll be looking for.
please check on their web site.
did u meet captian kate and bug?
We did! Not 1:1 but they did the "meet the captain" session and was great to see some of the places on the ship you can't normally go and get introduced to her and of course bug :). Have you gotten to meet her? Happy Travels Danee! 🦩
were u on the edge when it was in st kitts
No we weren’t :(
This video made before pandemic or during pandemic?
During the pandemic, we were on the 2nd sailing of the Celebrity Edge once it restarted. Hope that helps. 🦩

Don’t miss the lobster in the Luminea restaurant. It’s the best I’ve ever had!
We didn’t have access to Luminea. I’ve heard great things. Maybe next time 🤞
Was this cruise fully vaccinated? I noticed only a couple staff wearing masks.
It was fully vaccinated we also did try an unvaccinated cruise and have a comparison video. The crew of course was also fully vaccinated. Hope that helps, happy travels Marsha! 🦩
I wonder how much it cost for a couple?

You said “this was my favorite appetizer “ but didn’t say what it was !
😬 sorry. I meant the saganaki was my favourite. Have you sailed with Celebrity before?
Nice ship if you like a room with a window not a veranda. Infinate veranda is another way of saying room with a window that the ship controls. NO THANKS!
That is a very good way to describe it, a room with a window. Thanks for watching and commenting. Happy travels 🦩
