Celebrity Cruises
Celebrity Millennium
Celebrity Millennium, a mega-liner that debuted in 2000 (I was among the passengers on her maiden voyage and again in 2014), more than holds her own today after a refurbishment in in which the ship emerged with many exclusive features of Celebrity Cruises' Solstice class ships.
Highlights
- Dinner at quirky Qsine, whose unique, delicious fare costs $45 a person
