Since its inception in 1989, Celebrity has held true to its original commitment of taking the very best aspects of classic, elegant cruising and updating them to reflect current lifestyles. In 1997, we merged with Royal Caribbean International to form Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd.
What sets Celebrity apart from other vacation choices today is the cruise line's passionate dedication to providing guests with a cruise experience that exceeds expectations. This extraordinary performance level has become the definition of Celebrity Cruises, and has set the worldwide standard for today's expression of what first made cruising famous -- high quality, superior design, spacious accommodations, grand style, attentive service and exceptional cuisine.
The excellence of Celebrity's existing cruise product continues with the cruise line's Millennium-class ships, which embody even greater technical achievement and meaningful innovation, while retaining the distinctive style, sophistication and service elements that have become the hallmark of a Celebrity cruise.
Celebrity Cruises has recently announced a new “Extend Your Stay” program. Providing guests with convenience and relaxation, it will appeal to those facing waits at the airport before long flights home. In addition to the benefit of a leisurely last day onboard, the program allows guests to stay in their stateroom until 9am on the day the cruise ends - one hour later than the standard time by which the guest is typically asked to depart. Guests who participate in “Extend Your Stay” also can enjoy some of the ship’s services until as late as 90 minutes before the next cruise sets sail.
The program includes a benefits such as non-alcoholic specialty coffees and teas from Café al Bacio; a meal in the creperie-focused specialty restaurant, Bistro on Five; the opportunity to watch a first-run movie in one of the ship’s theaters; and access to the pool, fitness center and locker rooms. The AquaSpa will be available for spa services at an additional charge. Bar purchases can be made on the last day of the cruise using a credit card.
“Extend Your Stay” is being offered for the remaining 2011 Europe season on Celebrity Constellation, Celebrity Equinox, Celebrity Solstice and the brand-new Celebrity Silhouette. The program also will be available for future Europe seasons. Extend Your Stay departure times may vary by ship and itinerary based on local immigration regulations.
