A strong ship by most measures. No category rates below the middle of the fleet.

Celebrity Equinox rates higher overall than 90% of the ships we track. Disembarkation and value are exceptional.

Nothing to warn you about

No category on this ship rates below the middle of the fleet, and reviewers named no consistent complaint.

That is what the reviews show, not a guarantee — see what we can’t tell you below.

Everything else, in three lines

Three categories rate in the top tenth of the fleet — value, disembarkation and public areas.

Eight are good without being remarkable: embarkation, dining, service, fitness, ship quality, cabins, entertainment and activities. They rate higher than 75% to 89% of ships.

Family falls below the fleet too, but only 67 people scored it, so treat it as a hint.

Cabin grade barely matters here. The inside, oceanview, balcony and suite grades all score between 8.86 and 9.10. Pick on price and position, not on rating.
