The experience has definitely gotten worse. After the restart tried Royal, twice. Never again (bad food, too crowded). We also tried Celebrity Summit and it was OK. Nothing great however we enjoyed ourselves. Good enough that we booked a cruise on the Constellation. If the cruise on Constellation is as good, we will continue booking Celebrity. We will also try Cunard. If not, we will try Oceania (our favorite) before we give up cruising altogether.
