Celebrity Millennium Tips

Get the Eggs Benedict, Shrimp Cocktail, and Cheesecake. Don't rely on the ship's computers; they're over-priced and unreliable. LIVE as much as you can on your balcony and soak up that scenery.

The waffles and dinner are the best parts of the day while the fitness center has a gorgeous view.

Splurge for dinner at The Olympic.

Hot tubs were warmer under the enclosed area and the pool there was great-very relaxing. We enjoyed sitting at the level 10 bar watching the sunset.

ask for early seating for dinner so you can go to show and still make it to hot tub and pool. Also, get the beverage package because charging every drink is expensive

Bistro on Five is a little specialtyplace that had wonderful Paninis. Well worth the 7.00 pp. Only two other people in there for lunch and the food was great. If you buy anything made of plants ie (fireweed jelly) or animal products (ox hair scarves) etc or salmon - pack it in your checked luggage

I would recommend the dining room for dinner every night. It had wonderful food and was the perfect ending to a busy day. The service was superb and the atmosphere was relaxing. There was a new menu each night with great dishes and marvelous desserts!

The Aqua Cafe serves very good lean-cusine lunch :-) The Sauna at the Men's changing room is great (have been told that the one at the Women's changing room is also great) with a very nice oecanview :-) Try the "Olympic" restaurant, it is definitely worth the extra charge!!

Book your own tours

The buffet was best for breakfast but we loved the service and food for dinner in the dining room.

For example: Go to the Lido deck for breakfast. They had the shortest lines!

Not the nice and upscale Cruise Line you had gone on in the past. Celebrity has fallen victim to corporate greed and a "rest on your laurels" philosophy. Pass on Celebrity if you know what is good for you!

The Martini Bar is the hot venue of an evening, while Cafe al Bacio is very popular through the day. If you can't find a deck chair immediately beside the pool, go up one level where it is easy to find many that still overlook the pool.

If you go on this Alaskan cruise, make sure you go to the Cosmos lounge on deck 11. The views from there are spectacular.

Take advantage of the first night discount at Tuscan Grille and eat there instead of the main dining room which had a 30 minute wait to get a pager to wait another 30 minutes to get in for a 9:00 dinner! Second night just as bad, then it eased up. Also, take the Inside Access tour of the ship!

It is a very relaxed and informal cruise. No need to pack formal clothes.

Just remember you staff peoples names like they do yours and they will remember you even more.

Pack extra Tee Shirts, for some reason I ALWAYS run out of shirts. LOL

The view from the Cosmos lounge was beautiful. The buffet was always good and no waiting in line.

Could never find coffee...had to go to several pots to find some; choices very limited especially in off hours. Wait staff was okay but we always seemed to be served our dinners very last of all surrounding tables. Really expected a much higher level of WOW and didn't get it. Prepaid drinks were nice but there was no incentive to have them ask for drink orders
