Review of Celebrity Millennium Jan24th to Feb 4th.
This was the 6th cruise for my wife and I, 3 with Carnival, 1 with Norwegian and the 2nd with Celebrity. We had previously done a 10 day Southern Caribbean Cruise on the Celebrity Galaxy in February of 2009. Although we have enjoyed all of the cruises we have taken we found that the Celebrity cruise on Galaxy was just a step above the other lines in terms of service, friendliness of staff and overall ambiance. For this reason we decided to take the 11 day cruise on the Millennium and were joined by our friends who we have cruised with before on Carnival.
We always fly in the day before the cruise. Coming from Eastern Canada in the winter time you never know what type of weather you can get. We flew from Halifax N.S. to Philadelphia to San Juan on the 23rd arriving on schedule at 2:30 PM. I must say San Juan is the easiest departure port we have ever used. After collecting your luggage you just step outside to the curb where there is a taxi station. Just tell them what hotel you are going to and they give you a slip with the price you will be charged.
Cabin 2136 inside. We found it a bit small with not as much shelf and drawer space as you find on Carnival.
