Celebrity Constellation Review
Celebrity Constellation, the last in Celebrity's Millennium-class series, is not much different than Millennium, Infinity and Summit, its ever-so-slightly older siblings. These ships have long been the fleet's biggest and most innovative (though they've lost that title after Celebrity Solstice, the line's new-style vessel, launched in fall 2008) -- and years after their debuts they continue to impress.
The design of these ships is reminiscent of the grace and style of the great ocean liners, offering signature features such as a genuinely gorgeous atrium with a sweeping polished stone staircase and the grand San Marco dining room. Yet the amenities -- refreshingly innovative when the first Millenium-class ship debuted -- still offer that wow factor: an expansive spa (along with the AquaSpa cafe, the first-ever dedicated healthy fare eatery), a multi-million dollar art collection, a high balcony ratio and an outstanding, retro liner-themed alternative restaurant.
If Constellation doesn't distinguish itself from its siblings as far as design and layout are concerned, the ship's decor is fresh and unique -- even on our most recent cruise in spring 2008.
What's ultimately most interesting about Constellation -- as well as the other vessels in its Millennium family -- is its commitment to creating an ever-so-slightly superior big-ship experience.
Luxury big-ship operator Crystal Cruises has said many of its new passengers are trading up from premium lines like Celebrity and, while the two brands are nowhere near on a par, Celebrity Constellation is a good "everyday" choice for travellers who like to cruise in style -- but can't afford to join a luxury line on every trip.
