"What a nice staff from customer service to the people who helped you on and off the ship
We missed the first stop due to the hurricane and the next two due to the quarantine.We quarantined for 5 out of the 15 days in our room but we were so impressed with the medical staff and Kenneth who manages room service that we were grateful for the care and concern...."Read More

1-10 of 12 Panama Canal & Central America Celebrity Millennium Panama Canal & Central America Cruise Reviews
This ship is definitely for the older generation - 45+. NOT a ship for kids. I think there were only 6 kids on our cruise, so warning...if you want the kids to have fun, not a good idea to select this ship. The destinations are not for kids/teens either. It is an older ship, but upgraded with nice decor and is very well maintained. ALL employees were extremely great! When you cruise please ...
chose this cruise because of the destination and the excellent pricing. Ship is older but well maintained and the newer furnishings are soft colors and interesting. Ship was less than one half full and that made for open elevators and less congestion all over the ship
We had all shots and boosters and pretest but still got Covid on the ship. We quarantined for 5 out of the 15 days in our room ...
Overall it was a great trip, but there were some warts.
But first about me:
I am a 51-year-old guy. I have been on over 10 cruises. I am a good cook so I know good food. I am married. We travel with another couple that is also well traveled.
I expect good service and I am vocal when I do not get it.
Now about what we booked:
We booked an Aqua Class (A2) cabin, 9114. Aqua class has a few ...
We just returned from the 15 day Millennium cruise from Ft. Lauderdale to San Diego. For us, it was a great success. We thoroughly enjoyed the cruise and had few negative comments. Here's a brief review.
Because we were leaving from one city and returning to another, we used Choice Air. I did a price check; Choice Air offered the best price and a good variety of flights. No problems at ...
Sailed twice before on Millenium. Not a noticeable difference except for a couple of bars and the small movie theater is gone. Food has finally improved after a dramatic deterioration over the past several years. Dining room for "anytime dining" was efficient. In buffet, same food every day but plenty of variety so who cares? Lines too long for sandwiches at lunch. Only 2 sandwich makers. ...
Embarkation in San Diego was flawless. The cruise terminal is within sight of the airport, and a Rite-Aid drug store for last minute Cokes and forgotten toiletries is just a short walk away.
The ship itself is nice. It never felt crowded- much different than the feel of Carnival's Magic (for example). Food service was fine, with the quality and delivery of food in the dining certainly ...
The ship left San Diego late with no explanation. It was time to dress for dinner and we still had not received our luggage. Call to room attendant went to operator and never got call from attendant. Finally I called guest relations who said they had a few pieces of luggage with no tags. We went and they weren't ours. We had lost luggage forms thrust at us. I told them I wasn't doing 15 days with ...
Embarkation - We drove down from Orlando in a rental which we dropped off down town and grabbed a short taxi to the port. Check in was nominal with a little wait that appeared more due to the timing of arrival than Celebrities efficiency checking people in. Once checked in it appeared as though we had to walk the length of the ship 3 times before finally boarding, not Celebrities doing but still ...
We stayed at the Holiday Inn in San Diego for 2 days before we set sail. Visited Cobos San Lucas and Senior Frog Restaurant-great fun and pictures.
Due to Hurrican Hillary we were not able to go to Acapulco so went to Puerto Vallarta Mexico instead. Did a private tour with the cruise line who rented us a private van for our party of 9 and we toured the city.
Puerto Quetzel, Guatamala-Did the ...
This was our first cruise with Celebrity. We have gone on other cruises but it was with different lines. This time, we traveled and paid for concierge service. Unfortunately, we feel the embarkation process catered to the other passengers. The check in process for concierge service was extremely slow. There was only one check-in station for concierge service while there were at least 10 ...
