Rare ladylemondrop Posted June 12 #1 Share Posted June 12 (edited) Hi, long time no see... (or no SEA!) I have just booked a cabin on the Apex (first time on this class of ship) with my future DIL. We sail 4 nights 23rd August. I cannot wait to explore a new style of Celebrity ship but its all very different to what I am used to - can anyone help me understand the dining? We have early dining slot. Any shows that are not to be missed? Any other tips? Thank you. Edited June 12 by ladylemondrop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iandjm Posted June 12 #2 Share Posted June 12 I am new to Edge class as well but will be on your cruise. Really looking forward to a nice long weekend away 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted June 12 #3 Share Posted June 12 There are 4 MDR's and all are Anytime seating. First night will be busy at the door. If you like you can ask to reserve a table and time. Each dining room has specialties linked to the theme of the restaurant: However, you can order any of those specialties while in any of the 4 dining rooms. The main menu is the same for each venue each evening. We quite enjoyed this recently on Beyond. As far as shows, I suggest you go to any of the production shows as the theater has state of the art equipment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StopTheWorld Posted June 12 #4 Share Posted June 12 The production shows by the celebrity cast are all worth going to, and very popular. Go early to the theatre to guarantee a seat. And the shows in Eden by the cast are great too 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted June 12 #5 Share Posted June 12 My favorite production show of all their ships is Rockumentary. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer321 Posted June 13 #6 Share Posted June 13 I've heard – but have not seen yet – that "Caravan" offered in The Club by the Eden cast was outstanding. I'm looking forward to seeing it when I do Apex's fall transatlantic cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another one worth queuing for to get a seat ☺️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riredsox Posted June 13 #9 Share Posted June 13 If only they would add a World Class Bar. I sailed Edge and Apex just once because I missed the WCB. They have my favorite cocktails. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ducky_01 Posted June 13 #10 Share Posted June 13 Street Curling in the club was good fun, if looking for something to do on a sea day. Also, the lunchtime soups, sandwiches and salads at Eden cafe are excellent. On a nice day, there's outdoor seating on the starboard side of Eden, adjacent to the cafe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have our dining booked for our Dec cruise but hope, this will fit into our schedule.. ours is a short cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StopTheWorld Posted June 13 #12 Share Posted June 13 There were 2 shows. We went to the later one which I think was at 10:30pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Ducky_01 Posted June 13 #13 Share Posted June 13 On the four day short cruise leaving Southampton, Caravan was on Day 3 and Rockumentary was on Day 4. There’s always a later showing so you can make it even if dining late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDPCruisers Posted June 13 #15 Share Posted June 13 Have sailed on Edge, Apex and Beyond but was the first time on Beyond that we attended the Eden production cast shows and they were both outstanding. We will not miss then again when we sail Apex next spring. As others have pointed out, get there early if you want a good seat (the seating arrangement is not ideal in Eden while the Club is good though early birds get the best seats.

They had it during the day in the Club on Ascent..very popular. Every indoor space was taken up with sports...curling, putting etc And the Rooftop had Pickleball...plink plink plink! And non sports areas had loud music. .bass bass bass! Loved the ship but thought they could have a few Quiet spaces..not taken over by the card players!

Rare flyerbrp Posted June 15 #22 Share Posted June 15 Just walked off Apex this morning and sitting at Heathrow waiting to fly to EWR. 7 day Norwegian Fjord and Bruges. The entertainment was wonderful. Comedian Paul Boardman was pretty funny. Savanah and Jesse HamiltonJunior were very good. But the biggest thrill and experience was Tribute to the Beatles the last night. Do not miss the show if you like the Beatles. Go even if you don’t. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola2013 Posted June 15 #23 Share Posted June 15 I don’t remember that show when I sailed on Apex this past December. Hopefully it’s available when I return this December 🤞🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
si_boy Posted June 15 #24 Share Posted June 15 Agree, @flyerbrp great atmosphere last night on Apex watching Beatles Tribute band in the Theatre. We were at the earlier show, hope the later show was as good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare flyerbrp Posted June 15 #25 Share Posted June 15 We went to the 9:30pm show. Sat in the second row. Incredible show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
