Our favorites onboard Celebrity have been Toscana Pian Di Nova Il Borro (Italy), Puligny Montrachet (Chardonnay - France), Chiarello Family Estates - Bambino (Cabernet Sauvignon - Napa), Grgich Hills (Chardonnay - Napa) and Craggy Range (New Zealand). Overall, we've been quite impressed with the wine selection onboard Celebrity. The Sommelier on our last cruise (Reflection) said that Celebrity carries 10,000 bottles on each ship with 480 different selections.

Nice! We are in a Sky Suite on Equinox in May, but I believe Luminae will be completed and operational by then. It will be nice for you to enjoy Ocean Liners and Tuscan Grille on your cruise!

Sounds fabulous! We loved the Lawn Club Grill, but it was much warmer that your experience. Love the food on Celebrity.

We enjoy sail away on the Lawn Club with a glass of wine or champagne in hand. Great views from both sides of the ship!

We recently saw a new 9 night Pacific Coastal Wine Cruise sailing roundtrip from San Francisco on Celebrity Infinity September 4, 2015. It was evidently created when a company chartered the ship for 5 days in San Francisco and the 14 night Alaska roundtrip became a 9 night Coastal cruise and 5 night charter. So says my travel agent.

Cruise advice from a hologram? Check out what Celebrity Cruises displayed yesterday at the LA Times Travel Show!

Yes, we purchased the book this summer and love it! But I'd describe it as more of an entertaining or lifestyle book than just a cookbook. It has great entertaining tips, recipes, wine tips, and behind the scenes insights. Very enjoyable coffee table book.

I agree with you. I couldn't in good conscience share a beverage package any more than justify my wife and I sharing an all you can eat buffet. I just want to enjoy my vacation, not try and figure out how to cheat Celebrity out of their onboard revenue. I don't complain about paying $17 for a martini while at the Ritz Carlton even though I know it costs them a fraction of that for the liquor.
