Celebrity Edge - Alaska Dawes Glacier
A 7-night Seattle round-trip that pushes deep into Endicott Arm for a morning face-to-face with Dawes Glacier before docking in Juneau the same afternoon. Ketchikan, Skagway, and a southbound day of Inside Passage scenic cruising round out the route, with Edge's outward-facing Infinite Verandas built for exactly this kind of coastline.

What Travelers Say About Celebrity Edge
Reviews of the ship itself — the same for every Celebrity Edge sailing. Based on 9,000 discussions.
Celebrity Edge was the ship that redefined the Celebrity Cruises brand when it launched in 2018, and it still feels strikingly modern. It's the lead vessel of the Edge class (Apex, Beyond, Ascent and Xcel followed) and carries roughly 2,900 guests in a design that leans hard into contemporary, adults-oriented sophistication rather than the quiet, classic feel of older Celebrity ships. The signature spaces — the multi-level Eden venue full of living plants, the cantilevered orange Magic Carpet, and the Rooftop Garden — give it a distinct identity. The crowd skews couples and adults wanting an upscale-but-not-stuffy experience, and that vibe is the single most praised thing about the ship.
What People Love
- Genuinely groundbreaking design that still feels modern years after its 2018 debut — the Eden venue (three decks of living plants that shift from quiet daytime cafe to intimate cocktail-and-performance lounge at night) is the standout space cruisers rave about
- Strong specialty dining, especially Le Petit Chef, where an animated 4D tabletop projection shows tiny characters 'cooking' your dish before the real plate arrives — a gimmick almost everyone enjoys at least once
- Four full main dining rooms (Tuscan, Cosmopolitan, Normandie, Cyprus) instead of one giant hall, each with its own menu and ambiance, so you get variety without specialty upcharges every night
Common Complaints
- The Infinite Veranda splits opinion hard — it is NOT a true outdoor balcony but an enclosed room with a window that opens halfway; guests who want to step fully outside or sneak out for morning coffee are frequently disappointed
- The Magic Carpet — the orange cantilevered platform that moves between decks — is widely viewed as more marketing gimmick than useful venue; many check it out on day one and rarely return
- The Oceanview Cafe buffet draws steady complaints: very crowded and noisy at breakfast and lunch, and food repeatedly described as bland and sometimes lukewarm
