On the up and up Down Under

The wait is finally over. For the first time in over 930 days, we've returned to Australia and New Zealand. Making its debut earlier this month, Celebrity Eclipse® is sailing Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific's shores for the first time ever. We’re thrilled to show you photos of this momentous occasion. After a three year sailing hiatus in this region, it’s great to be back.

For our 2022/23 season, you can choose from a selection of 3 to 13-night itineraries visiting Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific—all sailing from Sydney and Auckland. There are plenty of opportunities to discover New Zealand (which officially welcomed back their first cruise ship earlier this month) with 9 of the 17 itineraries visiting this spectacular island country. For those of you looking for a Transpacific sailing, we’re offering an incredible 18-night journey that takes you from Sydney to Hawaii. Many of these sailings feature new onboard and shore side experiences that focus on luxury, relaxation, destination highlights, and culinary exploration.

We can hardly wait for the exciting 2023/24 season. For the first time, you can explore one of the most popular travel destinations in the world aboard our award-winning Celebrity Edge®. The first of our revolutionary Edge® Series ships will sail from Rome to Sydney, offering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to combine four back-to-back sailings for an incredible 52-Night Grand Journey. The Grand Journey will take you across 11 unique countries, covering some of the most breathtaking landscapes and diverse cultures in the world, before landing in Darwin as the first port of call in Australia. After the 52 night sailing from Europe, Celebrity Edge will kick off its Down Under debut offering 6 to 12 night itineraries. You’ll get an opportunity to visit Kangaroo island (a new port for us) and enjoy overnight stays in Cairns, Hobart, and Auckland. Plus, half of the itineraries visit New Zealand. Celebrity Edge’s innovative outward-facing design offers 360-degree views of the sea and the destinations you’ll visit—so, there's really no better way to see the world. 

Australia and New Zealand Webinar

Our latest webinar was all about Australia and New Zealand. We talked with Tim Jones, Vice President and Managing Director, Australia, New Zealand & Asia; Captain Leonardo Palaiokrassas, Captain of Celebrity Eclipse®; and two of our esteemed destination specialists. We discussed what it was like to be back in the region after our three year hiatus and what’s in store for the upcoming seasons (2022, 2023, and 2024). You can check it all out here.

In September, we kicked off one of our exciting new events— Music + Mixology—on board Celebrity Equinox℠. Those of you who attended told us you had an amazing time watching our bartenders server up delicious cocktails with the sound of our amazing live band as the backdrop. Likewise, we had a blast watching you all have fun, and we’re sharing the photos here for everyone to enjoy. We’ll be rolling out this event for Elite members and above to experience on additional ships. So, be sure to stay tuned.
