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.

@InvisibleVisible793 Жыл бұрын

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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

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.

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!

Hey Ben and David. Happy Sunday. Sailed Celebrity 1992 and it was amazing so could imagine these Edge class ships. Beautiful ship and staterooms and love the infinite balconies. Have watched every Harr Travel tour for the past year and a half. The seating at the pool is amazing. Oh yes. Captain Kate. Beautiful huge buffet. Love the Spanish party in your mouth Ben 😂😂. Great seating throughout the garden area indeed. Beautiful soft inviting color scheme of your spacious cabin and bathroom. Yes David. Artwork rare in bathrooms. The hanging space in the closet looks a little tight for 2 but lots of shelf and drawer space. A long retractable desk. The art above the chaise lounger is beautiful. Look at the size of the tv. Love this balcony. Open the top for air or close for A/C while still on your balcony. And blackout blinds too 🙌🏼. Oh wow. Glad they worked out the flight situation. Not all so lucky when booking the flights with the cruise line. Norwegian in particular. Love being close to the elevator. The meal looks yummy in the MDR. Unfortunately I’ve seen in vlogs folks walking around in spa robes 🫤. Wonderful 1st day. Thanks for sharing and see you next video. Beyond here I come. 🛳️

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.
