It seems like a smart idea to have the life jackets at the muster station instead of the cabin. So in case If emergency you don‘t have to rush to the cabin.
With respect to cruise ship reviews, both of you are amongst the very best on UA-cam. My wife and I truly enjoy your humor, detailed explanations and indepth personal perspectives regarding the entirety of the cruising journey on various cruise ships!
I've watch so many of your videos and I still have a lot to go. I think one of the most fun things that separates you two from the rest are when you are getting ready to go somewhere and you "talk" to us telling us to get going and "pulling" us along! I always smile and feel like I'm really there with you!! Thank you!!
There is no question this is the most detailed and enjoyable cruise video I have ever seen. And your narration to accompany the tour was splendid. You had me ready to jump off my chair and go book a cruise - I have not taken one since the pandemic. Great video guys. 👍👍
i've been on the Beyond's sister ship, the Apex. It really does feel like a 5 star resort and not a cruise ship. Even the movements of the ship were like butter. You hardly could tell you were in the ocean and moving, it was so smooth. And we thought the food in the Main Dining Room (we ate mostly at Cosmopolitan) was the best MDR food we've ever had on a cruise ship. This is the newest class of ships from Celebrity. They're called E-class and highly luxurious.
Love that the life jackets are at the muster stations. When the Costa Concordia tipped on the rocks and then lost power - people had to go down and back up in tipped stairwells in the DARK to get their life jackets.
The mere fact that you 2 can be both entertaining and extremely informative, without any bias for or against any cruise line, a feat very few review channels can pull off, is GREATLY appreciated.
We just came back from Carnival Celebration and WOW! What a difference! This is definitely more of our style/vibes. We love Celebrity but have been cruising with other more kid friendly ships but now that our daughter is a bit older, this definitely makes us want to go back to Celebrity again!!
I have to say that I really dislike the balcony setup. I love to sit on the balcony with my feet on the bottom rail, snacks on the table and the wind in my hair. Why pay for a balcony cabin if you have to stick your head out of the window like a Labrador?
I found your video by accident but you two are precious! I have never taken a cruise in my long life but I have to tell you, your enthusiasm for this ship and cruising is infectious. That ship looks incredible and I hope you enjoyed your time together on the cruise! X
Your excitement is contagious! I've never been on a cruise and have been watching loads of cruise videos. I love the descriptions ("Bambi on stilts", "It feels like France is dancing around in my mouth!") - wonderful!
Because of their narrations is the reason I went on The Wonder. I watched those vlogs so many times I was very familiar with the ship when I actually boarded. Sadly, the food didn't live up to my expectations. But I still had a great time.
Haven’t sailed on Beyond or Edge, but Celebrity was always our chosen cruise line! Love the balcony set up! And that bathroom! Wow! Such a beautiful ship! And their food NEVER disappoints! Looking forward to all your vlogs from this cruise!
Celebrity is our new favorite. Been on the Edge, Apex, Equinox, Solstice, Constellation and Eclipse. Sailing on Beyond next June. Even the older ships are beautiful! It is a more mature crowd but not as senior as Holland!
Wow .. shocked to hear this is your 1st sail on a celebrity ship. It’s our go to! Haven’t been on the edge class ones yet .. love the older ships - normally choose itinerary 1st, then look at the ships/price points. Welcome to Celebrity - bet you’ll stay ❤
I was about to say the same. So much to live with Celebrity. Yhankyou for this lovely video. So well done. Some ship tour videos make me feel queasy, but yours is a joy. Dying to hear your view of Cafe Al Bacio! My favourite part of ant Celebrity ship.
I was about to say the same as well. I have sailed on Apex which is an edge class ship and it was my favorite cruise to date. I’ve also sailed on the millennium class and am going on solstice class this summer. I am a Celebrity fan through and through. The food is amazing and the four main dining rooms is a really innovative idea so it’s not as crowded and you can try different cuisines whether it be American, French, Mediterranean, or Italian. Looking forward to the rest of your series on Beyond.
@@pamelabrauer9450 we are Elite with Celebrity and have now tried each class of ship. Our least favorite is M-class, mainly due to the spa and outdated common rooms (Constellation and Infinity, but not Millennium). Our last cruise was on the Apex (E-class). We thought it was the best MDR food on any Celebrity ship to date. We really liked the solarium (so much nicer) and the theater. We didn't like the layout of the ship, compared to the S-class ships. Seems to be a lot of wasted space on the E-class and hard pass on The Club area. No windows?? Lack of cute lounge spaces was a tad disappointing. S-class ships are our favorite. While we didn't hate the infinite veranda, we prefer a normal veranda like the M and S class ships. And we love all the little lounge spaces on S-class. It's also much more modern in decor and tech than the M-class ships.
@@pamelaschumacher5471 We love Cafe Al Bacio 4th deck. I always get a couple of quadruple espressos with very tasty pastries. Concierge class is the way to go.
We became experts continually mending the infinite balcony blind!! This must be an ongoing problem for the maintenance staff. We did not like the infinite balcony which was very small. Felt like an ocean view with a window that you could open. Lovely ship and excellent staff but I doubt if we would go on the Beyond again as we like the open feeling of a normal balcony.
I had no idea you hadn't been on Celebrity before! We'll be on our third Celebrity cruise, travelling on the Beyond in the Mediterranean in May after two previous cruises on the Solstice to Alaska and New Zealand. I loved both our cruises before and my favourite lines are Celebrity and NCL so I am really looking forward to hearing what you think of your inaugural Celebrity cruise. Warm Regards from Australia.
Welcome to Celebrity - we sailed on her sister Apex for 19 nights in a very spacious interior and had a wonderful time. Rooftop Garden was one of my favorite outdoor spaces and Eden was a peaceful place to read a book or play a board game during the day. We sailed from Akureyri, Iceland enjoying the view from one of the deck 16 hot tubs - amazing sail up the fjord.
Thanks for showing us so much of this beautiful new ship. After nearly 80 cruises, it is surprising that you missed Celebrity until now . . . and your loyalty-status with Royal Caribbean counts all the way, I have heard. Diamond? Diamond Plus?
I love the balcony! My favourite cabin that I’ve ever had was a floor to ceiling window on MSC, because I love the views and the light, but not so much the water, spiders and weather of a traditional balcony! It’s not for everyone but personally I think the infinite concept is brilliant.
Superb video and very enjoyable as well as informative. I cannot help wondering how the light colours used on carpets and furnishings throughout the ship will stand up to wear and tear, given the way some people treat things that are not their own. The very spacious buffet will hopefully encourage other operators to follow Celebrity's lead.
Love your videos! I’m living vicariously through you guys until we can get on a cruise haha My first ever cruise was on Celebrity Solstice, I loved it!
This is the best cruise ship I have seen in a long time. The colour scheme I exactly to my taste and the room!! That balcony I LOVE IT! Thank you both for doing what you do, without you (and sweet Stef) I would be lost on which cruise ship to choose, but now you have definitely made my mind up 😁
You both are amazing. Never been on a cruise ( live in FL, go figure). Love that you provided honest options of each cruise carrier . Now I feel better about selecting a first time cruise. Thank you !
You may not want to be on that big ole orange bar when they're in a busy port or leaving a busy port cuz a chance of a ship accidentally sideswiping the ship that your on, it is greater when the port is crowded forty ships to accidentally collide with and most collisions in Port are sideswipes so for safety reasons I would keep it closed and uninhabited until out to see
Hi Ben and David, I couldn't be more excited about this 😀 My husband and I are booked on the Beyond in March and I can't wait to hear your honest opinion on everything! Thanks for the great content and entertainment you provide to us. Love you guys 💕
I’m so glad you finally did a Celebrity cruise. It’s my and my husbands favourite cruise line. We just got off the Apex last month and it’s a sister ship to the Beyond. The crazy hallway to Eden on the Apex I called the snowball hall, so much fun.
So excited to see your Beyond review. I watched it while on the second week of our Beyond cruises the past two weeks. We happened to be in the cabin 2 doors from yours. I spoke to your cabin steward who remembered you but didn't know about your You Tube channel. She was very excited to go watch your videos. We also had two amazing weeks onboard!!
I was so glad to see that you guys were staying in an Infinite Balcony - I’ve heard SUCH mixed reviews about the experience of those rooms. Personally, a HUGE upgrade from my usual inside cabins, but not sure I’d prefer it to a balcony. Fab video from you both as always! 🎉
The infinite balcony is similar to a Scenic river cruise ship in Europe which we liked a lot. Agree that the ship generally seems sophisticated and grownup. Wonder how outdoor areas would be if the weather wasn’t great? Looking for something comparable to Holland and this may fit the bill.
I was in one of those rooms with the infinite balcony. I like a little light coming into the room in the morning so I know I didn't wake up in the middle of the night. So, I closed the blackout blinds almost all the way. I left about 3 inches at the bottom open, so no one can see in in case you wake up with another ship next to you. And, that helps me to not sleep in so late. Just a thought for anyone who cruises on Celebrity in the future.
Yous 2 cud be genuine bona fide presenters. Your videos are very professional with lots of useful information. Plus yous have a great sense of humour Probably my favourite cruise channel atm
Maybe there is a safety reason for the new balcony idea ? It’s just a thought ? Celebrity appeals to me. It’s on my Bucket List. I sailed Chandris twice around the World in the 70s Northbound and Southbound.
I just booked a Tokyo cruise on Celebrity today! Prices are too good not to. Of course it’s. It until summer 2024 😂😂😂 . It will be my first non Holland America cruise. I’m excited to try out Celebrity
Thanks guys! We just booked an Eastern Caribbean cruise from San Juan on Viva from NCL. with our kids and new son in law for next April! Expensive but can’t wait. Just watched your Prima video.
Greetings guys ! Celebrity is more upscale so the clientele skews a bit older . I went on the Solstice when it first came out and loved it . The Celebrity ships are more classy and elegant than Royal or trashy Carnival lol . I enjoyed the video 😎😎😎
I so look forward to your videos. You both always make me smile. I’m going on my first cruise in 3 plus years as I’m immune compromised. So excited. But yes I will still have to mask. But this is my life. I have lived vicariously through you Thank you for always making my day.
I love the orange outside floating bar/dinning thing!! So sorry weather will not cooperate. I would have loved seeing you din on it. What a modern ship. Not sure about the infinity balcony. I love sitting outside. You’ll have to update me on your options of it. I’ve heard Eden dinning is wonderful. And the top deck with the live trees looks beautiful. Have a great cruise!!
I think I would rather have a balcony..Much prefer the feel of being out in all weather's.Then just go back in our room if it's raining..Apart from that..The ship looks amazing..We will definitely put it on our ships to try...cheers lads for the info.
Viking Cruise Line is AWESOME. We love them, both River and Ocean. We have two on the books for this year. We love the explore suite, so now we’re hooked. You owe it you and Jenny B to give it a try.
As much I appreciate Celebrity Cruises for their luxurious ships I don’t like the new balcony concept, I prefer open balconies which are separated from the cabin by a transparent door.
Hi guys - we missed you by three weeks, exactly the same cabin two decks below you - it was stunning. It is a beaauuuutiful ship, and the food across the board was spectacular. Cap'n Kate is just the best. Stunning. cannot wait to sail on the Beyond again. So glad you enjoyed it.
Big cruiser here! Typically, always cruise with my fav cruise line but trying out Celebrity in December after seeing your videos! You are so informative and entertaining! Appreciate your honesty and class!! Now my favorite channel!! Thank you Ben and David!!
Norwegian and Celebrity are two cruise lines that I’d like to try. This ship looks like a very boogie hotel! ❤ Such a beautiful ship. I love the earthy tones, including how they also decorated the ship to look quite posh as well. 😊
Ben and David, you know someone tested the system by coming down in a spa robe. haha. That is probably why it is on the sign. Thanks for a video on my favorite line. We are going on the Beyond in December 2023 and January 2024. We can't wait to get onboard and hopefully our favorite Captain will be at the helm for one or both of our cruises.
I absolutely love U two - the other subscribers are correct - you should both host a tv show. If ever possible, could you please film spa treatments offered by cruise ships. Would love to see if they are worth the exorbitant prices charged for these services on cruise ships. Also, another question: would love to know what destinations you recommend. Favorites, cost/price, favorite cruise lines, whatever you think should be considered when determining which cruise to select. Thank you both!!!
Each of your videos is better than the last. Really enjoyed the pace of this video and as always the details you share. Outstanding work, Ben and David!! Much luv to you both.
Loved watching this, as always, you both keep it real ❤️ Talking of dress codes, we were on the Majestic Princess in December (Xmas/NY cruise to New Zealand) and was in the buffet restaurant and couldn’t believe it when there was a couple in there for lunch in their bathrobes 😩😳🙄 Why do people think that this is acceptable 💁🏻♀️😞
Glad to see an actual power outlet by the bed. I have a CPAP and I hate having to run an extension cord from the desk area to the bed. Definitely a plus Celebrity.
So excited to sail on this ship in September!! I have any time dining and all of the restaurants appear to be booked up already! Will they open up more spots on embarkation day? I'll be in a solo balcony, so no sofa, and a queen sized bed, which doesn't break apart, so no seam down the middle. Yay!
I could have SWORN you've sailed Celebrity before! We've been loyal to this line for over a decade now, and while we've cruised with others for family and friends, Celebrity will always be our first choice. We were on the Beyond in December and it's now our favorite ship! Also - Celebrity is proud of its modern art on ALL its ships. You can take an iPad art tour on all of them!
Just love your channel! You gents do a bang up job, it's so warm, funny and above all, genuine! Thanks for sharing your travels, such a pleasure to find this really good channel!
Ben & David - I subscribe to your channel and like the authentic enthusiasm you bring to all your cruises. I am so glad you finally get to experience Celebrity. It is my preferred cruise line with its more premium experience and I am pleased that you had a good time on the Celebrity Beyond (one of the Edge class ships). If you want to try a more traditional cruising experience on Celebrity, I encourage you to try one of their Solstice class ships. Different experience but amazing as well.
Beyond impressed us so much that we booked an 11-day on her for next year for my birthday. I'm so excited to be back onboard. We have Disney and RCCL cruises scheduled before then, but I'm already dreaming about Celebrity. The Celebrity App is the best cruise app I've used yet. It's fantastic. Watching a SpaceX launch from the top deck, even though it was really, really cold that day (Florida had a major cold snap that weekend) was a big highlight of the trip. So amazing to watch.
I love watching you guys. You make me smile and happy. I am so glad this one turned out well for you :D . This cruiseship looks wonderful, need to see if you've done anymore on Celebrity Beyond. I am also curious if all Celebrity ships are this nice? Anyone know?
I'm still shocked this is your first Celebrity cruise, but you certainly did it well! We've only cruised with Celebrity but will branch out a bit soon. We have four Celebrity Cruises currently scheduled --one on the Beyond this winter to Grand Cayman, Panama and the ABC islands. I can't explain how excited we are! I truly hope being on the Beyond with Captain Kate has left a positive lasting impression of Celebrity Cruises with you both. We adore you guys!
How great to find you two wonderful guys and Stef too going on Celebrity. We are going on Celebrity Equinox end of May and its our first Celebrity too. Looking forward to seeing how you enjoyed this, especially the food. Have a great sail!
@@lindabushyager5402 The Equinox is lovely, Linda! You will love it! She was our first Celebrity ship so we have some fabulous memories from that cruise. We've been on her twice now! Have a ton of fun!
I went on my first cruise last month with Celebrity, and I LOVE them!! The drill was easy and done on the smart phone. I loved all of the various art pieces scattered throughout, there were very few children, and the only downside was the show "Topper" (dear God, that's 90 minutes of my life I can't get back). However, food every where was fantastic, and the staff were the best. I can't wait to go on another cruise, but also afraid that it won't live up to the first one.
Thank you for the video! We'll be sailing on Celebrity for the first time too in less than 30 days. I was wondering what embarkation would be like, so thank you for the info. We have an infinite veranda also and we're looking forward to the extra space that's added to the room. We're excited for the new ship and new cruise line experience. Please let us know about the Royal Caribbean and Celebrity loyalty matching program if you can.
Thanks for this. I'm booked on the Beyond in November, heading to Grand Cayman and the ABC's. I also have an Infinite Balcony booked. Really looking forward to it.
Omg guys l was on the Apex Feb 25th to March 4th! Amazingly similar, beautiful and my single infinity balcony was fabulous! I had a bigger shower than yours!!! And the price was fantastic with lots of OBC. They treated me like a queen! What a fabulous cruise. Can't wait to try the Beyond!!
Our family's sailed celebrity for 20 yrs always a cut above.. love the Edge class. Can honestly say it's the only line that doesn't have noticeable cutbacks. Even princess has lost ground. ENJOY!

It seems like a smart idea to have the life jackets at the muster station instead of the cabin. So in case If emergency you don‘t have to rush to the cabin.
I always thought keeping them in the cabin was dumb. Emergencies dont all happen while you sleep

Is it wrong that I absolutely just love listening to you guys talk? I've never been a big fan of cruises but you are making me want to go!
Love that the life jackets are at the muster stations. When the Costa Concordia tipped on the rocks and then lost power - people had to go down and back up in tipped stairwells in the DARK to get their life jackets.
I’m a new subscriber but I absolutely love you two! I really believe you should be offered a show 😂 you’re so natural on camera 🩵
Agreed; not enough talented gay couples in TV. More please!❤
The mere fact that you 2 can be both entertaining and extremely informative, without any bias for or against any cruise line, a feat very few review channels can pull off, is GREATLY appreciated.

😂😂😂100% in agreement. Yes. I don’t want to be a Labrador…as adorable as they are
I love relaxing on the balcony chair and foot stool on RCCL. These chairs were not to my liking at all.
It's more of a sunroom, not a balcony.
They have a small number of traditional aft balconies called sunset verandas and cove balconies called porthole verandas.

Love Celebrity. Cruising with elegance and class.

Celebrity is my favorite cruising company! They’re also super LGBTQ friendly which my wife and I love. We can always meet queer folks our age ❤
That is a gorgeous ship! I love the art 🎨 😍
It really is!
This is my favorite decor, so far.
@ameliaerin1544 i think mine too! Such beautiful pieces!
I do love a balcony the black out blind is a nice idea. Love the bathroom and how spacious the cabin is.

We just love Celebrity!! Just got off the Summit two weeks ago. Our favorite place to relax is Cafe Bucio. Great coffee/tea and yummy pastries!!!
this just had to be the best video i have seen on celebrity- you made me want to book the Beyond now.
Hi Ben and David,
I couldn't be more excited about this 😀
My husband and I are booked on the Beyond in March and I can't wait to hear your honest opinion on everything!

Virtual Muster is such a W. Disappointing that other lines are reverting.

I've been on the Celebrity Flora, with same balcony style. Loved it. Makes the room more spacious. Only opened the window a few minutes at a time.
I love the orange outside floating bar/dinning thing!! So sorry weather will not cooperate. I would have loved seeing you din on it. What a modern ship. Not sure about the infinity balcony. I love sitting outside. You’ll have to update me on your options of it. I’ve heard Eden dinning is wonderful. And the top deck with the live trees looks beautiful. Have a great cruise!!
What category were your in? Great video & your explanations. Made us feel that we were there with you. Thanks for taking us along.
Infinite Verandah Cabin
I think I would rather have a balcony..Much prefer the feel of being out in all weather's.Then just go back in our room if it's raining..Apart from that..The ship looks amazing..We will definitely put it on our ships to try...cheers lads for the info.
Viking Cruise Line is AWESOME. We love them, both River and Ocean. We have two on the books for this year. We love the explore suite, so now we’re hooked. You owe it you and Jenny B to give it a try.
As much I appreciate Celebrity Cruises for their luxurious ships I don’t like the new balcony concept, I prefer open balconies which are separated from the cabin by a transparent door.
Hi guys - we missed you by three weeks, exactly the same cabin two decks below you - it was stunning. It is a beaauuuutiful ship, and the food across the board was spectacular. Cap'n Kate is just the best. Stunning. cannot wait to sail on the Beyond again. So glad you enjoyed it.
Big cruiser here! Typically, always cruise with my fav cruise line but trying out Celebrity in December after seeing your videos! You are so informative and entertaining! Appreciate your honesty and class!! Now my favorite channel!! Thank you Ben and David!!
Thanks!
Thank you for your super thanks!
The Atrium reminds me of the UFO scenes in Close Encounters… without the colours … so lovely to see Stef …
The infinite balconies look like an extended cabin with a picture window. I think I prefer an actual outdoor balcony.
Very similar to Apex, including the mirrored tunnel to Eden.
Thanks for the look around. Its a BEAUTIFUL ship but I think the other ship balconies are much better I really enjoy sitting outside.
One of the best I´ve seen in your vlog. So much class and alegance, so many details and art!! Beautiful !!
Celebrity is our favorite cruise line ! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Norwegian and Celebrity are two cruise lines that I’d like to try. This ship looks like a very boogie hotel! ❤ Such a beautiful ship. I love the earthy tones, including how they also decorated the ship to look quite posh as well. 😊
I’d advise against Norwegian. Just five my third and last cruise with them. Service has really gone downhill with everything.
You got me even more excited !!! I will be on the Celebrity Reflection in 3 weeks. Thank you for the review!!!
Rumors say they are still looking for that guy who sat on the most expensive art piece on the ship.
Ben and David, you know someone tested the system by coming down in a spa robe. haha. That is probably why it is on the sign. Thanks for a video on my favorite line. We are going on the Beyond in December 2023 and January 2024. We can't wait to get onboard and hopefully our favorite Captain will be at the helm for one or both of our cruises.
Hi , May I give you slight feedback. Perhaps add a small title showing when the ship was inaugurated. I’ve been binge watching your channel. Thanks 😊
I absolutely love U two - the other subscribers are correct - you should both host a tv show. If ever possible, could you please film spa treatments offered by cruise ships. Would love to see if they are worth the exorbitant prices charged for these services on cruise ships. Also, another question: would love to know what destinations you recommend. Favorites, cost/price, favorite cruise lines, whatever you think should be considered when determining which cruise to select. Thank you both!!!
Each of your videos is better than the last. Really enjoyed the pace of this video and as always the details you share. Outstanding work, Ben and David!! Much luv to you both.
Loved watching this, as always, you both keep it real ❤️
Talking of dress codes, we were on the Majestic Princess in December (Xmas/NY cruise to New Zealand) and was in the buffet restaurant and couldn’t believe it when there was a couple in there for lunch in their bathrobes 😩😳🙄
Why do people think that this is acceptable 💁🏻♀️😞
Glad to see an actual power outlet by the bed. I have a CPAP and I hate having to run an extension cord from the desk area to the bed. Definitely a plus Celebrity.
So excited to sail on this ship in September!! I have any time dining and all of the restaurants appear to be booked up already! Will they open up more spots on embarkation day? I'll be in a solo balcony, so no sofa, and a queen sized bed, which doesn't break apart, so no seam down the middle. Yay!
I could have SWORN you've sailed Celebrity before! We've been loyal to this line for over a decade now, and while we've cruised with others for family and friends, Celebrity will always be our first choice. We were on the Beyond in December and it's now our favorite ship! Also - Celebrity is proud of its modern art on ALL its ships. You can take an iPad art tour on all of them!
Theres another cruise couple who you may be thinking of. JJ cruise maybe?
Just love your channel! You gents do a bang up job, it's so warm, funny and above all, genuine! Thanks for sharing your travels, such a pleasure to find this really good channel!
Ben & David - I subscribe to your channel and like the authentic enthusiasm you bring to all your cruises. I am so glad you finally get to experience Celebrity. It is my preferred cruise line with its more premium experience and I am pleased that you had a good time on the Celebrity Beyond (one of the Edge class ships). If you want to try a more traditional cruising experience on Celebrity, I encourage you to try one of their Solstice class ships. Different experience but amazing as well.
Beyond impressed us so much that we booked an 11-day on her for next year for my birthday. I'm so excited to be back onboard. We have Disney and RCCL cruises scheduled before then, but I'm already dreaming about Celebrity.
The Celebrity App is the best cruise app I've used yet. It's fantastic.
Watching a SpaceX launch from the top deck, even though it was really, really cold that day (Florida had a major cold snap that weekend) was a big highlight of the trip. So amazing to watch.
Great video as always and how nice to see Steph. But no no no to those balconies. I get claustrophobia and that window did nothing to alleviate that.
I love watching you guys. You make me smile and happy. I am so glad this one turned out well for you :D . This cruiseship looks wonderful, need to see if you've done anymore on Celebrity Beyond. I am also curious if all Celebrity ships are this nice? Anyone know?
My favorite was the Big block of cheese with Ceasar Salad in it!! That looked awesome. Makes me hungry.
I did have the virtualisering balcony and really loved it!!
I'm still shocked this is your first Celebrity cruise, but you certainly did it well! We've only cruised with Celebrity but will branch out a bit soon. We have four Celebrity Cruises currently scheduled --one on the Beyond this winter to Grand Cayman, Panama and the ABC islands. I can't explain how excited we are! I truly hope being on the Beyond with Captain Kate has left a positive lasting impression of Celebrity Cruises with you both. We adore you guys!
How great to find you two wonderful guys and Stef too going on Celebrity. We are going on Celebrity Equinox end of May and its our first Celebrity too. Looking forward to seeing how you enjoyed this, especially the food. Have a great sail!
@@lindabushyager5402 The Equinox is lovely, Linda! You will love it! She was our first Celebrity ship so we have some fabulous memories from that cruise. We've been on her twice now! Have a ton of fun!
I’m loving the look on the inside of the ship! The different artwork is amazing!!!
I went on my first cruise last month with Celebrity, and I LOVE them!! The drill was easy and done on the smart phone. I loved all of the various art pieces scattered throughout, there were very few children, and the only downside was the show "Topper" (dear God, that's 90 minutes of my life I can't get back). However, food every where was fantastic, and the staff were the best. I can't wait to go on another cruise, but also afraid that it won't live up to the first one.
That infinite balcony looks very interesting 🤔. Color me curious 🤔
Thank you for the video! We'll be sailing on Celebrity for the first time too in less than 30 days. I was wondering what embarkation would be like, so thank you for the info. We have an infinite veranda also and we're looking forward to the extra space that's added to the room. We're excited for the new ship and new cruise line experience. Please let us know about the Royal Caribbean and Celebrity loyalty matching program if you can.
Guys, This is the best video we've seen of Celebrity Beyond!! Thanks so much for this excellent video!
The ship reminds me of the Cosmo in Las Vegas.
Thanks for this. I'm booked on the Beyond in November, heading to Grand Cayman and the ABC's. I also have an Infinite Balcony booked. Really looking forward to it.
Love your videos, Ben & David! We've seen more than 20 so far, since we found you a few weeks ago!🎉
Very excited to hear your thoughts! I think we're in the cabin next door to this one when we are on in the Mediterranean in May! =D
Omg guys l was on the Apex Feb 25th to March 4th! Amazingly similar, beautiful and my single infinity balcony was fabulous! I had a bigger shower than yours!!! And the price was fantastic with lots of OBC. They treated me like a queen! What a fabulous cruise. Can't wait to try the Beyond!!
You guys just make me feel so happy 😊 enjoy your cruise!
Yay! Thank you!
Our family's sailed celebrity for 20 yrs always a cut above.. love the Edge class. Can honestly say it's the only line that doesn't have noticeable cutbacks. Even princess has lost ground. ENJOY!
