The passenger ship is berthed at Cruise Terminal 2 (CT2) of the Admiralty Pier's three docking areas with the MS Balmoral, a Fred Olsen Cruise Lines ship, occupying Cruise Terminal 1 (CT1) out-of-shot to the right.
The Celebrity Constellation had called at Dover prior to going into drydock in Hamburg, Germany, from April 24 until May 9, to be fitted with some of the most popular venues found on Celebrity Cruise Line's Solstice-class ships: "From the minds of the world’s top designers and architects comes a class of ships that defy the imagination".
The first Solstice-class ship, Celebrity Solstice entered service in November 2008 and is the namesake of the class. All Solstice-class vessels have post-Panamax dimensions (the criteria for traversing the Panama Canal).
