One of the best ways to make sure that your dream vacation is as relaxing as possible is to pre-book as much as possible to streamline the experience, leaving nothing to chance. 

Celebrity offers a number of options for guests to pre-arrange, such as flights, hotels, ground transportation, and activities onboard. Here are some tips on what to do: 

Book Flights Through Celebrity

Booking your flights through Celebrity can provide peace of mind. Flights By Celebrity bookings mean that travelers have 24/7 backup should anything go wrong with Celebrity Specialists monitoring flights to ensure that you arrive on time for your cruise. 

Add a Stopover

It can be fun to break up the journey and plan a stopover in an idyllic vacation. Flying to Australia? What about a pause in Dubai or Fiji? When traveling to Europe what about stopping in a city like Madrid for a Barcelona sailing or stopping in a hub such as London, Amsterdam or Paris for cruises departing from Athens. 

Extend Your Stay

Planning ahead and pre-booking a hotel a day before your cruise departs has many advantages. Travelers buffer themselves for transportation delays and also adds to the experience by including more time in the departure city. Extending the stay after the cruise is another great option. Celebrity can arrange all of this with its City Stays program and its Celebrity CruiseTours program.

With everything in place before you depart, you’ll have the space to unwind completely.
