Celebrity Cruises continues to make a difference in the premium cruise industry with its innovative approach to service, quality and sustainability, taking care of every detail to the fullest in order to offer everything you want from a vacation.
The company, with a fleet of 15 award-winning ships, has become synonymous with unforgettable experiences and personalized attention, offering intimate service on its smaller vessels and the variety and excitement of its larger ones. Now, with the addition of its newest ship, the Celebrity Xcel, the cruise line reinforces its commitment to providing the ultimate vacation at sea.
The Celebrity Xcel reached a significant milestone on January 18 when it left dry dock at the Chantiers de l'Atlantique in Saint-Nazaire, France. This ceremony marked the completion of the ship's exterior and brought it one step closer to its passenger debut. Furthermore, this innovative ship will be a pioneer in sustainability, featuring the world's first tri-fuel engine, a revolutionary technology that is part of Royal Caribbean Group's strategy to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
The Celebrity Xcel will begin its inaugural season in November 2025, sailing from Fort Lauderdale on seven-night itineraries with stops in the Bahamas, Mexico, the Cayman Islands, Puerto Plata, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten. Then, in the summer of 2026, the ship will cross the Atlantic to explore the Mediterranean on seven- to eleven-night voyages from Barcelona and Athens, with additional overnight stays in Madeira.
