We booked our cruise for our 25th Anniversary on the Constellation sailing on March 12th from Fort Lauderdale on the Western Caribbean itinerary. We booked Concierge Class cabin # 7182 and we can honestly say, that everything on board was close to terrific.
The only less than positive comments we have about the ship were minimal, so I will get them out of the way early. The on-board Email account that we were issued in our cruise documents was cancelled because the service had been discontinued just prior to our trip. We worked around this by setting up a free Yahoo account the first day. Some of the excursions were not available as choices when trying to book them via the cabin TV, but that was resolved at the Shore Excursions desk. And a few of the entrees and the daily canapEs were very salty. That's it - that's all I can honestly say were the only negative comments of our 12-day Celebrity experience.
Embarkation was painless. From the time we pitched our luggage out of the car at Port Everglades to opening our cabin door was less than 15 minutes. The room was completely ready including the amenities such as flowers, champagne, ice, etc. Bedding was fine and the bed firm, but very comfortable. We met our stateroom attendant Analiza, and took off on a recon mission. As everyone knows, the Constellation is nearly identical to the Millennium (we were on her 2 years ago), so getting our bearings was easy. We hit the buffet for a little lunch and went to the excursion desk to book the tours that were not available on the TV.
