OVERVIEW
Constellation is an elegant and sophisticated ship. The interior is restrained good taste. For the most part, it is a contemporary design but there are some rooms that were inspired by styles of another era. However, even in those areas, the atmosphere is one of conservative refinement. With the exception of the casino, there is nothing gaudy about the decor. The primary target market for this ship is the accomplished, successful baby-boomers. Consequently, there is an emphasis on service with the ship having a low crew to passenger ratio of 1:1.9. The fourth and final ship in Celebrity's Millennium class, Constellation incorporated some advanced maritime technology. She has two azimuthal pods (azipoda), rather than the traditional propellers and shaft propulsion system. In addition, her engines are powered by gas turbines, which are a cleaner system than the diesel engines used by most ships. However, because of the high cost of running gas turbines, an additional diesel engine has been retrofitted into all the ships of this class, In 2010, Constellation became the first ship in the Millennium class to be "Solsticized." This involved taking a number of features that have proven popular on Celebrity's Solstice class ships and weaving them into Constellation. Celebrity managed to do this while still retaining the overall atmosphere of the Constellation. In 2014-15, the ship underwent another major refurbishment, which added, among other things, the Lumnae restaurant for guests in the new Suites Class. 
Constellation has an extensive. high quality art collection, featuring primarily modernistic works.
