This was our third cruise on Celebrity Cruise Line and our third cruise on the Constellation. This is the second most cruise line we travel on. We live in Staten Island only 13.5 miles from the cruiseport.
Embarkation-This went very smoothly. Got there processed in then they put us on a bus and we went right to the ship. Got on and dropped off carry-on luggage to the stateroom.
Dining-The food was its usual far above most cruise lines. It was very good to excellent. My wife really likes the waffles and could hardly wait to have them. The wait staff was very good in the dining room and buffet. Our Assistant Maitre 'D Miss Lorita really outdid herself. Our waiter Jesus (pronounced Hezeus),he wanted to make sure we knew that, and Celvin were very good at what they did. When they worked in the buffet were very cordial as well. The grill provides a good afternoon lunch place and you could sit outdoors weather permitting.
The rooms are somewhat small, the bathrooms are smaller too. Room service wasn't as fast as it was in the past.
