New Celebrity Ascent Preview Sailings Offered

Celebrity Cruises is offering two preview sailings prior to official maiden voyage of the Celebrity Ascent, giving travellers a chance to sample a taste of relaxed luxury at sea on board the brand-new ship, the fourth in the cruise company’s Edge Series.

The two new sailings include:

• A four-night Western Caribbean itinerary departing Port Everglades on November 22, 2023, and taking guests to Cozumel, Mexico over the American Thanksgiving holiday;
• A three-night Bahamas cruise departing Port Everglades on November 26, 2023 and visiting the lively street markets of Nassau, Bahamas.

Celebrity Cruises President and CEO Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, said: “This ship is going to be beautiful beyond words – truly the embodiment of a relaxed luxury resort at sea – and I’m thrilled to be able to offer travellers a sneak peek of all that she offers.” Lutoff-Perlo continued: “These sampler sailings will cement in our guests’ hearts that the experience onboard a Celebrity ship goes beyond being a traditional cruise line, and they will definitely leave them wanting more in the year ahead.”
