Of the over twenty cruises we have taken since 2000 (including 8 on Celebrity and 2 on Azamara), this was probably our least favorite. We experienced a marked decline in the quality of food and service since sailing on the Constellation in 2002.

Upon boarding, we usually head for the library to find reading material - the selection of books available was very limited and the volumes were old and in shabby condition.

One of our favorite memories of the Constellation was the time spent over a pre-dinner drink in the popular Martini Bar outside the Marco Polo restaurant. Alas when the Constellation was remodeled, the bar was moved to a very narrow, public corridor with little atmosphere. The apple martini too had changed: the waiter brought a cloudy concoction to our table, without a shaker and with sugar on the glass rim. When asked about the change we were told that Celebrity was now adhering to the Royal Caribbean model. Fortunately we found better martinis served in other bars on the ship.
