Millennium alongside Celebrity Solstice will then transport guests to some of Southeast Asia’s most iconic destinations including new ports Hanoi (Vietnam), Bangkok and Phuket (Thailand), Penang (Malaysia), Bali (Indonesia), and Mumbai (India).
New ports will also be on Celebrity’s 2024 itineraries visiting Fiji including new stops in Samoa, Fiji Islands, American Samoa and Tonga.
Celebrity Edge to Alaska
For the first time, one of Celebrity’s popular Edge’-class ships will head to Alaska. The first in the series, Celebrity Edge, will sail seven-night cruises from Seattle with stops in Victoria and Ketchikan and sightseeing at Endicott Arm Fjord and Dawes Glacier.
Largest Caribbean Season
For the 2024/25 season, a total of eight Celebrity ships, including three Edge-class ships, will sail to the Caribbean. Itineraries will range from three-night weekend sailings to 12-night voyages. Highlights include Celebrity Ascent’s inaugural Caribbean season with rotating seven-night Western and Eastern Caribbean sailings.
Year-Round Europe
