Last day on the Constellation

[llawrence]

This is an update on the first sailing of the Constellation……the ship has been updated to some extent. We are in Royal Suite 6142…new furniture, carpet, wall panels, and a new bathroom.  The balcony has all new furniture, loveseat, side hair, table with two chairs, two lounges, and of course the whirlpool (not updated). There are small glitches in billing as many of the crew are very new.  Guest Relations has been great at sorting things out….. like double charges etc.  The only real problem with the restaurants was Tuscan Grill….Cold food and for the first time in years…steak that  had to be sent back.(the aged porterhouse up charge)..The first day had some problem with brown water in a few of the suites….was fixed in a timely manner…and cruisers were compensated. Everything else was on par for celebrity….The crew was great, ports on par, Officers mixed and mingled well with the guests…The “Connie” is beginning to look good and going strong….Next cruise is the Beyond.

Awesome. Can you tell me who the retreat hosts/butlers are on the ship.  Can hardly wait for 11 nights in the Retreat starting on the 22nd

Liz and Palo are the Retreat hosts in Michael’s club…..No real Retreat yet….our butler is  Sebastian……..Excellent……I’ll find out who the others are…..Luminae was great..Russell is the lead there….Surraj was our waiter…..again excellent…..It seems most of the staff is brand new to cruising…none of our old standbys are aboard…but you will have a great cruise.Also….loads of great buys onboard …they are clearing merchandise left over from the last two years…..who doesn’t need a$1.49 watch….lol
