We almost always sail Celebrity. This was our first time on an Edge Series (newer, more modern) Celebrity ship. We chose the Apex for the itinerary, and sailed Aqua Class. You could tell this ship was more luxurious the minute you boarded. This was the first time we had an infinite veranda which makes a big difference in your balcony view and cabin living space. The stateroom had a lot of hidden storage space--which we had never experienced on any cruises before. You can alternate complimentary dining rooms, instead of eating in the same one every single night. We definitely had a couple favorites. We ate in Cyprus, the Greek restaurant the most. My husband enjoys sailing Aqua Class so we can eat breakfast in BLU. We also used the Spa, with the salt room, heated loungers, and swings. It was very relaxing. The electronics and LED screens used on the ship were impressive...especially in the theater. Edge Series cruises are more expensive, but WOW! What an experience. We usually look for a deal on a cruise since we live in Florida. We will now be willing to pay a little more for luxury.
