We love transatlantic cruising. Only having to fly one way is a big plus and cruising this way is usually cheaper than flying. You can't eat, drink and be pampered on an 8 hour flight! We chose this cruise because we wanted to spend some time in southern Italy post cruise. We had previously been on another Celebrity transatlantic 6 months earlier (see my Silhouette review) that was not very ...
I went on this cruise with my wife and this was my 27th cruise, but my first transatlantic. We flew in FLL the day before, rented a car and drove to our hotel in Boca Raton, the Marriott Boca Center. The next morning I dropped the wife and the luggage at the pier and I returned the car at FLL. I then grabbed an UBER and went to the pier. The embarkation was extremely easy and fast and we ...
We thoroughly enjoyed our 15 nights aboard the Celebrity Constellation. We (2 adults and 2 teenagers) had the time of our lives. The ship was just fantastic - having recently been refurbished. Our cabin on level 8 (with balcony 2 B) was very comfortable and in a great spot on the ship, at the front near the lifts but not to close. Our kids were in a separate cabin on level 2 (inside cabin). We ...
Another great Celebrity cruise with specialty restaurant providing the wow factor..........The veranda cabin was 2 feet shallower than the concierge cabins. The only downside was the smaller vanity and as such it was less used. The option to upgrade to concierge of $700 pp was not worth the extra. The ship was full because of the time of year (over Christmas and New Years)The Constellation was ...

We were quite excited to book a second cruise on Constellation, since we had fond memories of our Baltic/North Sea cruise of last year. The embarkation process went smoothly, and we were pleased with the ship's new color scheme, as well as with the 'fresher' look of the furnishings in our cabin. We found the staff as friendly and helpful as ever, so we looked forward to the pleasant 15 day ...
This was our second time sailing Celebrity and our first on the Constellation. We are in our mid-forties which is definitely young for this ship.
The embarkation process was fast and efficient. We arrived at 12:00pm and were on the ship within 40 minutes with a glass of champagne in our hands.
The ship: The Constellation is beautiful. It is well laid out and has diagrams at every elevator ...
This was another excellent, not perfect cruise on Celebrity - our seventh on Celebrity and 19th overall. You will read below some comments about the disappointments we encountered, as well as some very satisfactory things. Overall we had a very relaxing time, and would recommend this ship and this itinerary, with advisement. We are seniors, newly retired.
We flew two days early from ...
We just got in and I wanted to write my review while my thoughts were fresh. This was the first time cruising with Celebrity, however we have done 15 cruises in the last 8 years with Princess, NCL, Royal, and Holland. We arrived at the ship around 11:30 and were onboard by 12:30 and at the buffet. Nice selection and things went well. The ship left on time for Grand Cayman.
Rough day at sea and ...
My husband and I are in our 30's; no children. We were looking for a cruise to see new ports we haven't been to, as well as to relax and celebrate our 10 year anniversary. We've been on 6 other cruises with RCCL, Carnival, NCL and MSC. This was our first Celebrity cruise experience.
Overall experience:
Celebrity touts themselves as a "premium" cruise line. While we had a nice experience and ...
