Celebrity is going to disrupt river cruises with a bold entry into the market

It's official: Celebrity Cruises is bringing its beloved upscale brand to Europe's most iconic rivers. 

Celebrity is known for its luxurious, modern approach to cruising, particularly with the line's Edge Class. Celebrity Edge debuted in 2018 and redefined premium cruising with innovative features like the cantilevered Magic Carpet. 

Celebrity wants to bring its brand to Europe, so passengers can experience inland destinations without sacrificing the best parts of a Celebrity cruise vacation.

My parents paid more for an obstructed balcony, but our cheaper inside cabin was the better choice

Is it always worth paying extra for a balcony cabin, or could booking the most affordable interior cabin be the smarter choice? In my experience, opting for the cheapest option can be the better decision.

I sailed on Celebrity's three newest ships. The one with the Instagram famous Captain was the best

Of all the cruise ships I’ve sailed on, few compare to Celebrity’s Edge Class ships. Even after 50 cruises, these revolutionary cruise ships continue to be my favorite vessels to sail on.

I sailed in different cabins on a new cruise ship. Here's how they compared — and why I'd book the cheaper one next time

I sailed on Celebrity's newest cruise ship twice. The first was a 7-night cruise to the Eastern Caribbean from Fort Lauderdale, and the second was a weeklong cruise around the Greek Isles. Though I preferred the latter's itinerary, the expensive cabin wasn't worth it on a port-intensive itinerary. 

Is a Celebrity drink package worth it? I tried it to see whether it was worth the money

As someone who enjoys a few cocktails on vacation, one of the most annoying things about booking a cruise is that alcohol is rarely included. 

For many cruisers, savoring a glass of wine over dinner or a tropical cocktail by the pool is a must-do while onboard. As such, drink packages are among the most common add-ons. However, they aren't cheap.

Captain Kate announces her Instagram famous cat has passed away

One of the most famous cruise ship captains has experienced unexpected heartbreak this holiday season.

Kate McCue, also known as Captain Kate on social media, announced on Instagram today that her beloved cat, Bug, has sadly passed away. According to Captain Kate’s post, Bug had complications from a routine dental surgery the day after Christmas.

I tried Bahamas cruises on Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, and Carnival ships, and there's one I wouldn't choose again

I love cruising, whether a port-intensive sailing to Greece or a short getaway to the Bahamas, so within the past year, I sailed on Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, and Carnival ships to try and uncover the best cruise line for Bahamas cruises. 

Each line is known for something different. Carnival, for example, is known for its fun, lively atmosphere with plenty of activities geared toward partygoers and families. On the other hand, Celebrity provides a more refined and sophisticated experience, with an emphasis on fine dining and world-class service. 

I took my first cruise to Australia. Here are 13 lessons learned, including 4 mistakes I won't make again

Flying across the world for a cruise might not be everyone’s idea of vacation. With a 17-hour time change and more than 24 hours of travel time to just reach the cruise embarkation port, this vacation might not appeal to anyone.
