Joined "Century" using frequent flyer points from Australia which involved 29 hours flying time via Hong Kong with 2 nights stop over en route to Fort Lauderdale for the 14 day trans Atlantic cruise to Amsterdam.
Positives: Embarkation was unbelievably prompt thanks to pre-registration of details via internet & the fastest in 9 cruises we have done to date.
Dining in the Grand Restaurant was excellent as anticipated & reminiscent of our fabulous experience aboard Celebrity "Millennium" in 2003 when we cruised between Venice & Barcelona while casting aside the worries of Sars & the Iraq war which then caused so many to change their travel plans.
