We are very experienced travellers and have done a number of cruises, including with Celebrity. This June we sailed with Infinity up to Iceland. This was the end of 3 months of travel which began with a transatlantic on Holland America' Niew Amsterdam. Two ships of similar size and rating gave us a good point of comparison. Forget Infinity - pick Niew Amsterdam hands down!!

I blame the management for all of the oversight. Someone of authority needs to look at the stained upholstery on ALL of the seats in the Trellis dining room. The Constellation Lounge also has stained and frayed chairs.
The rooms need to be ...
Let me start by saying we had absolutely perfect weather. That always helps the experience. We started our cruise in Copenhagen. We arrived the day before so had some time to explore the city before boarding the ship. The embarkation was a little long (at least an hour) of standing in line. Once on board we had some lunch while awaiting for our stateroom to be ready. We had a balcony room 7187. It ...
