Celebrity Cruises has confirmed it will expand the inaugural season of Celebrity Edge, as the new ship will be completed ahead of schedule and enter service earlier than planned.

The schedule change will now allow Celebrity Cruises to offer not one, but two distinct seven-night maiden voyages on Celebrity Edge’s alternating eastern and western Caribbean itineraries.

Travellers also have the option to book back-to-back sailings for a 14-night journey:

“Thanks to the amazing work of the STX France shipyard team, the industry-changing Celebrity Edge is now scheduled to arrive much earlier than anticipated, which gave us the opportunity to offer not one, but two maiden voyages,” said Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, president, Celebrity Cruises.

“Both of these maiden voyages, plus the taste of luxury preview sailings, will have all of the festivities one would expect from the launch of such a revolutionary new ship, and now even more guests will have the chance to experience these one-of-a-kind inaugural sailings.”

In addition to the alternating maiden voyages, Celebrity Cruises will also be offering four new Edge Preview Sailings, perfect for eager guests who simply can’t wait to get a taste of luxury.

Celebrity Edge will homeport in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, now making its first sailing on November 21st, 2018.
