Celebrity Cruises is celebrating a series of firsts in 2024, with its four Edge Series ships located in top destinations for the summer season and beyond. For the first time, cruisers can experience the Caribbean on new three- and four-night itineraries, or board the newest Edge Series ship, Celebrity Ascent, all while reaping savings with the brand’s new Semi-Annual Sale. 

The premium cruise line is now offering up to 75% off the fare of the second guest on all sailings from now until April 30, 2026.  Those booking on select dates will also receive $200 to spend onboard, which can be used to access a variety of experiences; from spa treatments to the interactive culinary spectacle of Le Petit Chef, alongside exhilarating shore excursions.  

Eligible itineraries for these savings include Celebrity Cruises biggest Caribbean season yet, with more options for travellers to enjoy the region’s tranquil blue waters and sunshine. 

Nine of Celebrity’s resorts at sea, the most ever in the Caribbean for the brand, will sail the region on itineraries ranging from brand new three-night short getaways to 12-night elevated vacations giving travellers more options than ever before for escaping the winter blues. In addition, select sailings will call on the highly rated Perfect Day at CocoCay, providing access to an exclusive private island experience.

On top of Caribbean escapes, this year Celebrity Cruises guests can explore Alaska like never before, soak up the history and romance of Europe’s cultural hotspots or take in the breathtaking views of the Norwegian Fjords  -- all from the comfort of a revolutionary Edge Series ship.

Trend-setting destinations in their own right, the Edge Series ships have a unique outward-facing design, creating an even closer connection between the sea, guests and every new destination on the horizon. The iconic Magic Carpet -- the world’s first cantilevered lounge at sea - sits on the edge of the ship, offering a new way to drink, dine and connect with the destination guests are experiencing.
