I'm sailing on the Equinox in 3 weeks and from this video I'm sure I won't be dissapointed....looks like the typical, high class, comfortable Celebrity ship. They really do it right!!!! This is my 16th cruise with Celebrity....wonderful cruise line.
Getting ready to take our very first celebrity cruise next week on the equinox so happy I found this! Some great information! We are very seasoned cruisers but only through Disney so really looking forward to the other things this ship offers!
Thanks for a great vlog! My husband and I will be traveling on the Equinox in 26 ton the South American/Antarctica cruise. Really looking forward to it.
First went on Equinox 2016 so I’m amazed to see they still have the glass blowing feature ! We sail in July on the Italian Riviera cruise. Will certainly take in the glass blowing.
Great video, thanks! So the Persian Garden doesn't have any kind of water features like jacuzzis or hydrotherapy pool? Or I may have missed it? We have only been on Edge class ships with Celebrity. How does Solstice class compare, would one be "underwhelmed?"
Wondering how the cocktails are on Equinox? We sailed Reflection in October and the drinks were weak and disappointing except for at the Martini Bar. Worst pina colada ever at the pool bar😢
We enjoyed the drinks on Equinox - what we noticed was what appeared to be fewer crew/servers on our sailing. We hope that has since been resolved - it was when we sailed on the Beyond and most recently on the Infinity - we had great service on both!
@@DocksideTravelyes! I just happened upon this video as we are trying to decide about booking this ship for March 2025 and as soon as I heard you guys said Newfoundland. Great walk thru!
Thanks. AFAIC, Celebrity ships end here. The Edge class are something else that is not the same spirit or elegance of this class of ship and previous. Usually I'm not an older is better type and embrace change and find something good in newer ships but the Edge ships I don't like one bit. So, I hope these ships stay well maintained and the level of service and food remains high so that people that don't want anything to do with the Edge ships have these to go to. Maybe after the Edge they'll bring back some of the character of these lovely Solstice ships but I'm not holding my breath. Favorite part of the Equinox (Solstice class ships). The Martini Bar. It's chic, elegant, evocative, intimate. Great space. Ruined on the Edge ships IMO.
What are peoples view on the cabana’s? I can’t see the point of paying to restrict yourself to that one small area. I know you can go off and do something else, but then you’re not getting value for money. So can anyone here that has used them comment?
We tried a couple of different cabanas on Equinox and Reflection. For us we did it on port days (in ports we have been to many times) when the cost was less. Given the very attentive service, amenities and private space we thought it was great value. But we’d also be interested to hear other’s experiences!

That itinerary is definitely on our bucket list! Should be such a great cruise!
Thank you for the walk through . I’m going on the Equinox for the Christmas 2024 cruise
Holiday cruises are so special - the ship is decorated for the season and lots of great meals! Enjoy!
So am I
Great video 🎉Thank you!
Thank you too!
Very informative, professional and and well-done video….watched the whole thing and subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
Great review. Wife and I look to take the Equinox next summer out of Barcelona! Thanks for the information.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, we're picking up the Equinox in Barcelona Aug 2024, really looking forward to it!🍻🍹
Thank you! You will have to let us know how the trip from Barcelona goes - the Equinox is a lovely ship!
Lovely review and so helpful! Will be sailing on the Equinox this month from Barcelona! Thank you for sharing. 🙂
Glad it was helpful - you will have to let us know how the Mediterranean cruise goes!
I sail on the Equinox march 2024
Was absolutely excellent
We love the Solstice Class ships!
Positive and sincere review. Thanks!
Thank you!!

It’s a great ship and should be a great way to tour the Med!

No - unless you count the rainfall showers. There’s not jacuzzi or hot tubs in that part of the ship.
Wonderful video! My partner and I are going on this ship in February 2025.
Thank you! It’s a great ship and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Heading out on this ship in January. Can’t wait.
Loved the video. See you July 20
We are on the Beyond on the 26th
Thank you for a great review of the ship, looks great all of it. Could you clarify for me, do you pay for the different coffees in Cafe al Bacio?
You have to pay for the coffees but it is covered on all drink plans. Hope this helps!

Informative video! Question about the casino. If you are playing the slots and do not have a drink package, do they charge for a beverage?
We can't speak for the slots - but we have seen players at the tables get comped drinks! Perhaps one of our other viewers can chime in on the slots???
Where are you guys from? I can't place your accent.
Newfoundland, Canada

We love the Martini Bar on the S Class ships too!
