BobbyBuoy Posted February 8, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I like the appearance of the "S" Class ships , such as the Reflection, with the beautiful bow and stunning white painted hull, etc. On the other hand, IMO Edge has little if any beauty. That "Flying Thing" hanging from the side and the blunt, retro bow certainly do little to enhance the appearance of the Edge. What do you think ?

BobbyBuoy Posted February 8, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I am only interesting in how other cruisers feel about the appearance (exterior) of the Edge when compared to other Celebrity ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think tee wants to know WHY you posted the same question twice, not why you asked it. For the record i agree, the edge is NOT a beautiful ship. Perhaps it will grow on me, but its not in the same league as S class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnorigionalName Posted February 8, 2019 #6 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I like the look of the Edge. The inverted bow is nice and distinctive. I guess I have no attachment to the standard cruise ship look. I like the color and the paint scheme. I like the rear and the asymmetric eden. Overall I think it's a handsome ship. I'm not too big of a fan of the giant x smokestack, a little ostentatious, but I guess not out of line with the modern like flashy vegas aesthetic.

Marelaine Posted February 9, 2019 #7 Share Posted February 9, 2019 (edited) I agree with you, BobbyBuoy. The Edge lacks the graceful look of the Solstice class ships. Edited February 9, 2019 by Marelaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are hundreds of posts about the Edge appearance from bow to stern, Magic Carpet, etc. if you do a search on the Celebrity board. It was quite a hot topic as Edge was being built.

BobbyBuoy Posted February 10, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Thank you for your assistance. Being new to the "boards", my questions may seem out of place, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted February 10, 2019 #10 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hate to pour water on the paint, but as the ships get "Revolutionized" they are painting the hulls dark blue, as is the Edge, and now the Millenium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyBuoy Posted February 10, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Thank you for the information. However, I still think this is a mistake; just like all the other Edge mistakes and now, you say, the Millie is going to change from white to blue. Is there a reason for this change ?

deliver42 Posted February 10, 2019 #12 Share Posted February 10, 2019 The Millie is already changed. This will be the new livery for all the ships thanks to the Edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorky Posted February 10, 2019 #13 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Personally I prefer the look of the S class ships but it’s no big deal. The most important thing for us is what it’s like when on the ship. I think in general modern cruise ships look like a big block of flats/apartments next to the style of traditional ocean liners which had a grace about them. However the two are a totally different beast offering a far different product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However the two are a totally different beast offering a far different product. You are absolutely right. Once inside, who cares about the outside . However, I know that I get a really positive feeling when I first see the "S" ship and not the Edge, when tied up at the pier. Big, bloated blocks of apartments , stacked in what seems an endless , rather reckless manner , vertical or horizontal, doesn't matter; just pack them in. However, the white "S' ships still look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the “S” Class ships have the most beautiful exterior styling of any cruise ships currently in service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
