Consider this for those of you who don't buy medical insurance . I'm a travel agent and this story was going around the office. There was a young lady (in her 20's) who booked a cruise to Europe. She felt she did not need to get insurance due to being young and in excellent health. While crusing she had an a accident at poolside and subsequently broke her neck. She ended up in coma for many months and I'm not even sure if she recovered yet. The family is now trying to figure out how they are going to afford paying for the hundred of thousands dollars in hospital bills. Had she bought med. insurance they could have avoided this very unfortunate situation. Not trying to scare anyone but I'm the kind of person who would rather be safe than sorry.

Sorry I was editing my post and it seemed to post both of them. Tried to delete the old one but it wouldn't let me.

Still fairly new to the boards so please be patient with me.

We are young grandparents (50's) and took our 6 and 8 year old granddaughters on Celebrity. We are both foodies and I need peace and quiet so Celebrity was good choice for us.

I was a bit worried that the children wouldn't enjoy themselves because of the age group this line caters too. There's no slides, kids areas or other activities you would find on RCL, Norwegian etc.

We put the girls in the kids program and they absolutely loved it. They hardly wanted to spend time with us. We would go dancing in the grand hall after dinner most nights they*enjoyed*the attention they got from the older cruisers. Everywhere we went people would stop us either asking us if they were in dance class (no formal training at all) and saying how they loved watching them performed. Yes they are not shy and loved to party like their grandma. LOL.

For myself being picky with stuff I found Celebrity met all my needs. The food was delicious, the girls ate from the adult menu, the service exceptional and they made you feel like a VIP.

Both cruises we took surpassed our expectations and that is saying allot since I am not easy person to please.

We just came back from another Celebrity cruise and had an even better experience as we had more time to meet people and made some friends along the way.
