I have been on both of these lines. Likes or dislikes in food are a personal thing. Many cruisers claim Celebrity has the best food but for me it was the worst. It is the only time I had to return many meals. I have never had a bad meal on Princess but like I said it is a personal thing.

What I find is the big difference between Princess and Celebrity is that Celebrity is more formal and totally all business. Princess is elegant like Celebrity but a more friendly atmosphere. Celebrity crew did an outstanding job but just not as outgoing and friendly as Princess. I enjoy a crew that is more relaxed and friendly. Princess crew also does an outstanding job and don't misunderstand that they are just a party crew, because they are not.. They just seem more open and friendly. JMHO

Princess has cruised Alaska much longer than Celebrity and I enjoy them there, however when you cruise Alaska the ship and cruise line play second fiddle to the beauty of Alaska.

The truth is that either line will do a good job in Alaska. You must decide if you want a elegant and more formal atmosphere or a elegant and friendlier atmosphere.
