Celebrity Summit - Panama Canal
Panama Canal Transit
The Marvel that is the Panama Canal was outstanding! To witness, as it made its way through the docks was all we had hoped. The transit started before sunrise and we were able to enjoy an audio presentation that was piped throughout the ship as we proceeded through the canal.
We thought this was a very nice touch.
If you are on a voyage through the Canal and your ship has a bar or a room at the top of the ship facing the bow try to get there EARLY, as it fills up quickly.
There is a lot of humidity so it is best if you can be in an inside position with air conditioning, for the transit. For this event, the Summit opens the helicopter pad area, which is located behind the Celebrity Theater on deck 5.
Summation and Ratings
This cruise on the Summit as a whole fell well short of our expectations. Towards the end of the cruise. Towards the end of the cruise, we did notice that there was an increase in cleaning activity and it seems the management team on board took advantage of my observations. The dust that was present through ought the first 10 days of our cruise was beginning to vanish. The stateroom was finally at the level that it should have been at day one. The biggest disappointment, for us was that we had to experience this inconvenience, and the fact that we did not get the full advantage of a 14 days of sailing in the standard we have come to expect from Celebrity
In all probability, we will sail on the Summit again; however, it will be with trepidation.
