Celebrity Constellation Ship Tour 

I’m sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your cruise or have a good cabin steward. On our sailing there was food in the buffet (including the pizza and pasta stations) until 1am which is typical of Celebrity Cruises. If you enjoy a more lively night life, you probably would be better on another cruise line. Virgin Voyages, MSC, Carnival, and NCL all come to mind.

@@travelingwithrebecca RCI as well. I think the cabin not being clean is a cabin steward issue, not a ship issue. Food and service and such is subject to the personnel you encounter on your cruise. The ship is the platform and hardware and I think as hardware, the Millennium class is very good. I still like the Century class more due to one more lounge in the aft of the ship. But there have been big enhancements to this ship since its original design.

The best was Celibrity Soltice Concierce Class in 2014. Greetings from Norway

Thanks for your comments. She is an older ship and missed her revolution because of the pandemic but from all I could see she has been really well maintained. And although she isn't the most modern, I'm among those that love her traditional charm. The S Class (such as the Solstice) are also great ships. We'll be on the Celebrity Eclipse again next year.

It has to do with perspective. 2001 is not an "old" ship. Today's view of how long ships should last is IMO warped because so many people want the newest and think anything older then 7 years is old. However, ships should last 40 plus years. They'll get refurbished from time to time but they are floating buildings and some aspects of them are timeless. This ship is more middle-aged than old before all of these newbuilds came along and people now expect and looking forward to newer. This ship has most of what the newer Solstice class ships have as it was retrofitted into it. I don't see anything outdated about it because it is a "retro-modern" design in many areas so it is, in a way, timeless in design. Yes, the theater doesn't match the Edge but those will be "outdated" by another class of later ships. But a lot of the charm and intimacy and richness of the spaces work in any time from the dining room, to the Martini bar to the foyer staircase and elsewhere.

@@travelingwithrebecca Honestly, maybe it is good she did. I don't like some of the changes made to the Millennium, particularly the dining room. The original one fits the style of this particular ship better than lightening, brightening and having it lose its grandeur. I'm not so sure I like the changes to the casino on the Millie either. Or Michael's.
