CRUISE CONTROL: Celebrity Commits to a revolution

13 OCT 2017: We’re talking about a revolution, but it’s one that’s being meticulously plotted. Starting in 2019 Celebrity Cruises has committed to spend $400-million renovating and upgrading their fleet to give all nine ships the feel of the new Celebrity Edge, launching in 2018.

All staterooms will be reimagined by designers Hirsch Bedner Associates and reconfigured. This will include the installation of over 11,579 cashmere-covered mattresses and bed sets and a more efficient configuration of the storage spaces in the cabins.
