Svetlana and I thought for a long time and looked at the situation in the world. And how in chats partners had already booked cruises 3 times and had them cancelled. And so we decided to spend the accumulated bonus points for their intended purpose. Our choice fell on the cruise company Celebrity Cruises, below I will explain why.
We watched a lot of videos about the most beautiful cities of Portugal, Lisbon and Porto. That is why the cruise route was chosen from Lisbon to Barcelona on the Celebrity Infinity liner. True, I have already been on my first cruise in Barcelona, now I need to show the city to my wife. Yes, to be honest, there are still a lot of places where I haven’t looked yet myself. There will be a chance, so to speak, to fill in the gaps.
Our cruise route
Although the route passes through only two countries, the cities included in it are not always found on the routes of standard class cruise lines.
- Lisbon, Portugal (night on board)
- Day two Lisbon, Portugal (departure)
- Porto, Portugal
- Day four at sea
- Cadiz, Spain (Svetlana’s birthday)
- Gibraltar, UK
- Malaga, Spain
- Day eight at sea
- Alicante, Spain
- Valencia, Spain
- Day eleven Barcelona, Spain
Several ports deserve special attention, for example: Porto, Valencia, Gibraltar, Cadiz. And very few cruise ships come to Lisbon itself. Since the route is not circular, you will have to arrive and depart from different countries, air travel will be more expensive.
We are not afraid. Last year, when a cruise to the Greek islands from Venice was canceled, we did not take the money and left the vouchers. Now they must be used by the end of the year, with flights only to Europe. So we already have tickets.
I will describe in more detail and show the cities along the route after arrival. This is just a preview of the upcoming cruise.
Celebrity Cruises
Now it’s time to tell you in more detail why the cruise line Celebrity Cruises was chosen. As I wrote above, this is a premium company. There are absolutely no additional costs on the ship. All inclusive.
No need to pay a tip, and on this line it’s $15 per day, by the way. A drinks package is also included in the price, with meals at several themed restaurants to choose from. And other delights for wealthy people.
You need to try it all on yourself! After all, with each cruise, appetites grow. I want even more fashionable interior, comfort in a cabin with a personal butler 24/7, gourmet food and an overall unique atmosphere.
How much does a cruise on the Celebrity Infinity ship cost.
How much does a cruise on such a ship cost ? I’ll answer: about half a million rubles if you book with a tour operator. Yes, this is madness for the average person, but not for a partner of the InCruises club.
Although you know, among our brothers there are people who prefer quantity to quality. They would rather travel on a standard class ship, in an inside cabin, but 3-4 times a year. Moreover, the package of drinks and tips will be paid in cash, and not, as we do, with bonus points.
Suppose you earn 200-300 thousand rubles. I wonder if you would spend that much money on a 10-day cruise? A toad won’t choke you?
And we easily part with bonus points!
Cruise ship Celebrity Infinity
The cruise line Celebrity Cruises promotes a relaxed atmosphere. On the liner Celebrity Infinity there are no noisy water slides, mass entertainment events, everything here is designed for an intelligent public.
Children under 18 years of age, as well as young people from 18 to 21 years of age, must be accompanied by an adult passenger. In other words, this liner is not for children..
Exquisite dishes will delight us every day. The theater hosts excellent evening performances with guest artists. The dates of our cruise will allow you to bask in the Spanish sun by the pool.
Towards the end
To be honest, I didn’t want to write this article now. Some prejudices suddenly came out unexpectedly. It was a very sad experience last year. But I always wrote an announcement before each cruise, and only once did it fail, and that was not our fault.
I didn’t write where we will go additionally after the cruise or before it. There will be a surprise for readers.
I really hope that the cruise will take place, there is still time before the velvet season. But in any case, we will not lose anything. If the liner does not go to sea, then bonus points will be returned to our account.
The mood will only spoil, but don’t be discouraged. Not this year, so we’ll go next year. And we’ll use our free air tickets for a holiday in Turkey, or maybe we’ll go to Abkhazia. It will be visible.
