Lack of pre-cruise notifications
1 We were not told of the covid infections on previous cruise and only found out from back to back passengers and crew, although we could be sent multiple emails about things for sale
2 We were handed a sheet as we boarded that mask where required at all times
3 Some ports where pay to get off ship (you had to buy a Celebrity excursion to leave ship and ...
Having had a lovely cruise in Sept aboard the Millenium we were looking forward to this B2B in the Caribbean. There was a bit of confusion at the port with times not being well marked until port personnel started calling by entry time. After that a breeze, we were in our cabin 28 minutes from Uber drop off. Our cabin changed from deck 7 as we had anticipated, we were placed in a lovely cabin on ...
After much deliberation, we decided to take this cruise, having booked it after we received our booster shots but before the latest omicron outbreak. We seriously considered cancelling after reading several articles about the health risks of cruising, along with the real possibility of our stops being cancelled. The CDC warnings, an article in SFGate and one posted on Cruise Critic caused us ...
I had heard that Celebrity Constellation had good food, great entertainment, and offered a grand experience. Yes! All of my high expectations were met. We traveled with another family, and we all found different adventures to enjoy. The fitness trainer was excellent. The spa was perfect. The restaurants had such variety, the food both beautiful and delicious. The entertainment was Broadway ...

We were a party of 6 that has often cruised together. We all had the Classic Beverage Package.
Embarkation
We had stayed at the Crowne Plaza on Rte. 84. We all took a shuttle to the ship. This was easy since we were the only ship sailing out of Port Everglades that day. A storm knocked out the power to the terminal, which was terminal 4. This terminal in the past was used by a ...
We just came back in mid October from a fantastic Mediterranean cruise aboard the Celebrity Reflection. The ship was perfect, the itinerary was great, and the customer service was superb. When we contacted guest services because we heard a banging sound outside the balcony of our stateroom, the problem was investigated, determined that the sounds were coming from the kitchen of the restaurant ...
Although we have cruised many times over the years, this was our first trip with Celebrity. We usually prefer the newer, mega cruise ships for the greater variety of amenities & entertainment, but the Constellation didn't disappoint. The not-so-small Constellation holds approximately 2,449 passengers & 941 crew. It entered service in May 2002. We had a short delay boarding due to Public ...
This was my third voyage on the Constellation and she continued to please. In fact, I sailed on the new Silhouette in December 2011 but prefer the Constellation for warmth/ambience and easy of getting around.
Arrived on the AutoTrain from Virginia the day prior to the cruise. Stayed at the Hyatt Place, Dania Beach. Package provided one night's stay, parking for two weeks and round-trip ...
Members of our group flew independently to Ft. Lauderdale and most overnighted before the cruise at the Comfort Inn. My girlfriend and I stayed at the Rodeway Inn near the airport. It was so-so with a nice sports bar restaurant but check-in and airport pick up were rather poor although the shuttle to the airport was timely and well organized. The vans pulled luggage trailers and each went to a ...
