Celebrity Alaska Cruise Reviews

This was our third attempt to do this with Celebrity...COVIDS caused the cruise to be canceled year after year. We lifted and shifted our reservations, with Celebrity being quite amenable after a bit of balking. Japan is one of the places DW and I had never visited before, and the idea of sailing across the North Pacific was intriguing. The ship gets *****. Our first trip on Millie, ...

We sailed from Vancouver on August 27, and as other reviews have mentioned, the embarkation process is a complete mess. With 3 ships in port there was upwards of 7,000 passengers all snaking thru the same line and it took us almost 2 hours to board. Someone definitely needs to look at this process. We’ve had 8 cruises in total and have never gone thru something like this! Being from Vancouver, I’m ...

This was our 7th Celebrity cruise, but the first since 2017 due to you-know-what-global-disaster. A couple of weeks before departure I ventured back to Cruise Critic and read so much doom and gloom about how bad Celebrity has become, and all the loyal passengers moving to better and more luxurious lines etc etc. I understand this particular demographic and their mindset, but it was a little ...

Unfortunately the official survey sent by the cruise line focused mostly on the staff, but I have a few other things to mention. The luggage took 6 hours to get to the cabin, although my check in was the earliest. Meals could be slow in the main dining room. One night it took an hour and a half to get our entrees. Dinner in the Murano, a specialty restaurant, was very good, but certainly not ...

This was our 3rd cruise to Alaska (first 10 years ago with Celebrity, and second 4 years ago with Holland, both Inside Passage). We decided for this one as a way to visit Denali. The good things: A) Celebrity did a major refurbishment of the Millennium. And it is not just some makeup: the ship got a major rejuvenation rework (we travelled in the Infinity a few months ago and the ...

We have sailed on Celebrity the last 7 cruises we have taken. This was our third time reserving in the Retreat. The ship is good for cold weather sailings, however, with no Retreat Sundeck, private pool and bar, would not spend the money for the Retreat. Suite service was excellent. Our butler, Orsa, was fantastic. Always there when you needed something. Bar Service at the World Class ...

We are just back from a 7-day Alaska cruise aboard the Celebrity Eclipse – our twelve or thirteenth cruise throughout the world. It was mostly good but things have changed in the cruise industry – the good ‘ol pre-pandemic days are naught but a pleasant memory. Here were the things about the cruise that tainted the overall pleasure of it. 1. We embarked at the cruise ship terminal in ...

The people in the Corporate offices, who have never worked for a cruise line should not be making decisions about the food in the main dining room. Menu is the same every night except for the second to last evening. Gone are the days of lamb shanks, duck & osso bucco. Be prepared for chicken, salmon and NY strip every evening. Which is great but no other variety as in the past. We have ...

Just took the Celebrity Millenium cruise to Alaska, but just returned from our vacation – in total we were gone over 2 weeks (and one week was the cruise). We like cruising Alaska, so when some we were with our friends last July 2022, we said ‘what should we do in 2023?’ The answer that hot July was go somewhere not so hot! The cruise, which left from Vancouver and ended in Seward, was more ...

Enjoyed the ship, the people, and the employees. These folks work hard and pull off a logistical feet and make it look easy. Met most expectations and exceeded them in a number of areas. Enjoyed the MDR; food and service were great! Yes, the portions are small, just order two if you need to. Entertainment was very good; not necessarily my style but very good nevertheless. Music ...
