Celebrity Edge unveiled

EXPANDED staterooms, a “magic carpet” and a rooftop garden are just some of the features which will be on Celebrity Cruises’ first new class of ship in ten years.

This morning the cruise line unveiled details of the 2,918-passenger vessel Celebrity Edge and its new Edge class, which it said “set a new standard for ship design” and will debut in the Caribbean from Dec 2018.

Accommodation on board Edge will be “transformational”, introducing the new Edge Stateroom with Infinite Veranda (similar to a French balcony).

The design of the Edge Stateroom offers 23% more square metres and 10% larger bathrooms than the Solstice class.

Celebrity has doubled the number of available suites, adding two new two-bedroom, two-bathroom Iconic Suites, situated above the ship’s bridge and spread over 792m2.

Another new suite class is comprised of six split-level Edge Villas, offering private plunge pools and direct access to The Retreat Sundeck.

Celebrity Edge will feature The Magic Carpet - a movable platform the size of a tennis court which scales the 16-deck ship, providing a different experience at four different levels.

The space will offer “Dinner on the Edge” for 90 guests at Deck 19; be an open-air expansion of the main pool area at Deck 14; offer more seating for a specialty restaurant on Deck 5 and be an embarkation station at Deck 2.

Guests will also be able to enjoy live music and movie-and-meal pairing, “A Taste of Film”, by night and games and activities during the day at The Rooftop Garden.

Bookings are open now.
