Celebrity Infinity Review

Review of Celebrity Infinity

The 2001-built Celebrity Infinity cruise ship is the second of the Millennium-class Celebrity liners, with sisterships Constellation, Millennium, Summit. Celebrity Cruises Infinity ship underwent a "Celebrity Revolution" drydock refurbishment in February-March 2021.

The vessel (IMO number 9189421) is currently Malta-flagged (MMSI 249048000) and registered in Valletta.

History - construction and ownership

Celebrity Cruises was founded in 1988 as the Greece-based Chandris Line (cruise shipping operations between 1974-1996). In 1997, Royal Caribbean International (RCI) merged with "Celebrity Cruises Ltd" to become "Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd" (RCCL). The "X" on ship funnels is the Greek letter chi (standing for "Chandris").

Common features of Celebrity Cruises ships include aft located glass-walled dining rooms, signature alternate dining venues, bars and lounges, spacious Atrium lobby areas, a large number of balcony staterooms, large sundecks with swimming pools, The Retreat (adults-only sundeck with full-size swimming pool, Jacuzzi, cabanas, poolside full bar service). Rooftop Terrace (top-deck outdoor lounge-restaurant-cinema), large Spa (with Thermal Suites), premium retail shops selling top-brand merchandise.

Celebrity Infinity cruise ship

The 2200-passenger ship Celebrity Infinity started with novelty special features like a 2-story Library, a retro ocean liner-themed restaurant and a lovely bank of all-glass sea view elevators. Amenities and new tech things like grass cover and solar power, as well as the company's basic dedication to art, natural woods, and sleek Scandinavian styling, make Celebrity Infinity stunningly elegant. Celebrity Cruises considered that a significant problem with Infinity was a recurring pod propulsion issue on the Millennium-class vessels that led to a number of canceled and shortened cruises. In 2010, Celebrity's parent company RCCL settled a longstanding lawsuit with Rolls-Royce, one of the creators of the faulty pod system, for USD 65 million. An RCCL press statement from the time noted that the two companies have been "clever in improving the reliability of the design".

Decks and Cabins

Celebrity Infinity staterooms (1085 total, in 28 grades) include 50x Suites, 573x Balconies, 244x Oceanviews, 212x Inside cabins. Most staterooms are sized 170 ft2 / 16 m2. Around 60% of all passenger accommodations have a private step-out balcony. Most cabin balconies are sized 40 ft2 / 4 m2. Wheelchair-accessible cabins are 26. The largest are the Penthouse Suites (1430 ft2 / 133 m2 with wraparound terrace sized 1100 ft2 / 102 m2).

During drydock refurbishment 2024 was introduced the new cabin category "Sunset Suite" (with aft-facing terraces) replacing the "Family Balcony" category. These staterooms offer unobstructed stern views from their extra-large balconies. The new category provides as complimentary amenities The Retreat services (by dedicated Butlers), exclusive dining (at Luminae) and unlimited access to The Retreat Lounge (Deck 4 midship).

The boat has 12 passenger decks, of which 7 are with cabins.

Shipboard dining options - Food and Drinks

Trellis Restaurant is Celebrity Infinity's main dining room. It offers formal breakfast, brunch on one of the sea days, lunch on select days, and dinner. The highlight of the 2-tiered restaurant is its huge, paned showcase window, extending from floor to ceiling. The Oceanview Cafe is the Lido-buffet restaurant, situated aft on the pool deck. Tea, coffee, and juices are available 24 hours a day. Food is served from 6:30 a.m. to 1 a.m. Set up in one long U, the buffet also has three stations that are hidden away at the back, and are easy to miss: these sections feature different from the regular buffet offerings. The Pool Grille is forward of the buffet and offers veggie burgers, hamburgers and hot dogs from 12-noon to 6 pm.

Itineraries

Celebrity Infinity itinerary program is based on Antarctic cruises in South America, Alaska roundtrip deals from Vancouver BC, and some Caribbean sailings with departures from Fort Lauderdale/Port Everglades Florida.

Due to the Coronavirus crisis, the Celebrity ship Infinity was paused for 2+ years (March 2020 thru June 2022). Operations were scheduled to restart on June 25, 2022 (Caribbean itineraries from homeport Fort Lauderdale), followed by a South America winter season (2022-2023, with homeporting in Buenos Aires Argentina and Valparaiso Chile) and a European program (2023) with deployment in the Mediterranean.

The Mediterranean program (2023 thru 2025) was largely based on homeporting in Barcelona (Spain) and Piraeus-Athens (Greece). The Med itineraries (6- to 12 days in length) included exotic call ports in Morocco (Tangier, Casablanca/Marrakesh), Spain's Canary Islands (Arrecife/Lanzarote, Las Palmas/Gran Canaria, Santa Cruz/Tenerife), Holy Land voyages (visiting Ashdod Israel and Alexandria Egypt), as well as popular destinations in Turkey (Istanbul, Kusadasi/Ephesus) and Greece (Santorini Island, Mykonos Island, Rhodes Island, Hydra Island, Volos/Meteora, Thessaloniki, Kavala).
