Weekly Roundup From Celebrity Infinity + CAPTAIN HUDSON IS AVAILABLE NOW

Published 2 months ago • 2 min read

I found it I found it! The sun! It does still exist, it’s in Greece onboard the Celebrity Infinity.

Luckily for me… I’M HERE TOO, taking a very cheap last minute out of season cruise.

Our journey started at 3am so I haven’t explored the ship properly yet but I can confirm my ‘Celebrity has the best buffet’ statement 100% still stands.

If you have seen pictures of Cruise Ships and Ocean Liners in dry dock undergoing renovation, or being built in the shipyards you may have wondered why they are painted a different colour – often red – below the water line.

I went under one (MSC Bellissima to find out why).

Why Are Ships Red Below The Waterline?

MONEY-SAVING CRUISE TIP OF THE WEEK:

If you don't mind where your cabin is located, book a 'guaranteed' cabin where the cruise line picks. They are almost always cheaper and I've never regretted the decision.

NEWS:

Captain Hudson V4 is ready to order!
Last year we raised over $81,000 for the charity Mercy Ships (all profits donated), can we beat that this year? I hope so!

LIVESTREAM SCHEDULE:

  • Next Live: I'm not entirely sure because it depends on cruise ship WiFi/4G signal strength but I do hope to go live from the ship!

ONBOARD:

I’ve been on lots of cruises but even amongst the never-ending list of extras you can pay for, there are a few money can’t buy things that I’d love on a cruise!

These things are very specific, but I don’t think I’d be the only person who would like them.

WEEKLY DISCOUNT:

EASTER

Each week I share a discount code that is valid for my merchandise store (all designed by me), it'll work for 24 hours only so please don't miss out.

This week's discount is on the new Easter range!

I'm often asked which cruise I've taken had the roughest seas, and without a shadow of a doubt that goes to my Fred Olsen cruise into the Arctic Circle.

Fred Olsen are a traditional British cruise line and very different to the type of line I normally pick.

Hey hey hey! This winter has been long and cold hasn't it? I'm convinced I'm sun-powered like a lizard, and that's why I booked a last-minute break onboard Celebrity Infinity. 🌤️🕶️I've just got home and I can confirm, the sun does still exist. Greece is keeping it for a while longer though! 😂☀️ Infinity is a little ship built in the year 2000 and I loved my time on her. I was so lucky that just by pure chance, I was docked by the brand-new Sun Princess in Athens. My friend Don managed to get...
