Question
Hi Curtis,

We've crusied only twice, first time on the Celebrity Century to the Eastern Caribbean and then on the Grand Princess in the Mediterranean. We prefer Celebrity. We just booked a Christmas cruise on the Celebrity Constellation to the Southern Caribbean departing December 21st. Have you been on this ship? Any pointers, if so?

Thanks,

Sam

Answer
Well Sam, since the ship has not yet made it to the states, I cannot say anything about her. she is currently heading this way and scgeduled to arrive in Lauderdale in the first part of Nov.

She is the sister ship to the Infinity, Summitt and Millennium. I have sailed on all of these ships and found them to be a wonderful experience. I must admit though, I feel the ships are larger than I care to sail on. I prefer smaller vessels that seem to cater nore to customer service.

I did sail and the Grand Princess and too felt she was tooooo large for my tastes.
I would suggest going to cruisecritic.com and visit the ports of call area message boards which are a wealth of knowledge for you to experience.

Have a great cruise
