Celebrity Cruises has revealed its 2026-27 itineraries, with the highlight being a summer season in Europe for the newly launched Celebrity Xcel.

“Our 2026-2027 season offers exciting new and expanded experiences for Celebrity guests to indulge their sense of curiosity across all regions of the world. Edge Series ships continue to sail our four key regions, including the European debut of Celebrity Xcel which will offer guests exciting new vacation experiences in the region,” said Laura Hodges Bethge, president of Celebrity Cruises. She also emphasized the "110-night Grand Voyage," which spans 55 destinations across 15 countries with no repeated ports, inspired by the high demand for extended sailings.

After its debut winter season at Port Everglades, Celebrity Xcel will embark on a Mediterranean summer journey, followed by a winter season sailing out of Miami for 2026-27.

Other noteworthy updates include Celebrity’s expanded presence in Iceland, a return to South America and Antarctica, and new overnight stays and port calls across Europe and Asia.

For the first time, guests can experience the 110-night Grand Voyage, visiting 55 unique destinations across 15 countries, from Canada to Hong Kong, on the Celebrity Solstice.

Highlights of the deployment include:

  • Celebrity Millennium sailing out of Narita, providing easier access to Tokyo.
  • Celebrity Beyond offering year-round Caribbean voyages from Miami and Fort Lauderdale.
  • Three ships - Edge, Solstice, and Summit - sailing in Alaska for the summer season.
  • Eight ships heading to Europe, including three Edge Series ships: Celebrity Xcel, Celebrity Ascent, and Celebrity Apex.
  • Celebrity’s return to South America with new voyages to Patagonia and Antarctica aboard Celebrity Equinox.
