A grand total of 280 destinations in 75 countries are covered by the operator’s 2021/2 itineraries, with group bookings available.
The cruise operator has some ambitious plans for the upcoming season, such as the addition of new European ports of call in Taranto, Italy and Greek stops at Zakynthos, Hydra, and Thessaloniki. The latter is home to 15 UNESCO World Heritage Sites and more than 30 museums.
New overnight stays will be available in the cities of Porto, Portugal, St Petersburg in Russia and Reykjavik – the capital of Iceland.
“We’ll bring you to places that will stay with you long after you’ve left them, including new destinations in Europe, Asia, South America, and Alaska.”
Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, president and CEO of Celebrity Cruises
