Celebrity Constellation Review
Relaxing and enjoyable transatlantic cruise on Constellation
Rating by category
Additional details
This was my 9th cruise, third with Celebrity, and only my second transatlantic.
I now consider myself thoroughly addicted to cruising in general, and longer duration repositionings/transatlantics in particular. I am ALWAYS looking for interesting ports with historic significance and beautiful scenery, but the very relaxing pace of numerous sea days is also appealing. Being retired and of modest means, PRICING is ALWAYS a very important consideration.
This cruise fit ALL of my requirements VERY nicely. I booked with my favorite online agency over five months in advance to assure necessary dates for my girlfriend's work schedule. I considered $609.00pp with $102.00pp for taxes to be an EXCELLENT rate for a 15 night cruise. The $150.00 OBC from the agency, along with the $250.00 OBC from rcl shareholder benefit made it OUTSTANDING.
Cabin Review
Inside Stateroom 10
3082 was exactly WHAT (quiet and no light) and WHERE I wanted. Standard Cat 10, Deck 3, starboard side passageway, just forward of the main lobby/guest relations desk. This allows you two completely separate escape routes in case of emergencies, as well as a VERY fast and easy embark/debark. VERY little noise from the cabins below and around, the passageway, or the Casino above. PLENTY of storage space in both closet and drawers. (BETTER than Solstice class ships!)VERY efficient layout with head of bed on opposite wall as you enter. That wall is one HUGE mirror that makes the room look and feel MUCH larger. The only down sides are the small, somewhat worn, rather cheap couch/pullout bed in the cabin, and the old fashioned shower curtain in the bathroom. I would choose the same (or similar/nearby) cabin again.
