WE DIDN’T FIND YOUR HAPPY PLACE, WE BUILT IT.

21 January 2025

We didn’t just build a ship. We built the holiday your customers will always remember.

The restaurant they'll never forget. The date night so good it lasts all day long.

The pool day to outshine all other pool days. We built new ways for your customers to explore the world before they even get there. New chances for them to restore like never before. A new check mark on their bucket list.

We built your customers happy place. Say hello to Celebrity Xcel.

Celebrity Xcel is sailing her inaugural season from Fort Lauderdale, offering seven-night itineraries alternating between the Bahamas, Mexico, Cayman Islands, Puerto Plata, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten. In Summer 2026, Celebrity Xcel will set sail on her inaugural European season where guests can immerse themselves in the Mediterranean like never before on seven-to 11-night journeys out of Barcelona and Athens, including all new overnight stays in Madeira, Portugal.

Our newest ship debuts in November 2025, and we can’t wait to show you more. So, stay tuned...

XCEL DREAM MAKERS

Be part of creating the next ship on your customers bucket list. Join the Xcel Dream Makers, a team of holiday makers who will help us elevate Celebrity Xcel into a class of its own. This ship is going to be your customers happy place, so we can’t make all the final decisions without you. Test, try, vote, and share your thoughts!

In an industry first, Dream Makers will have the final say across key elements of the holiday experience to be offered on Celebrity Xcel when she sets sail. Through online polls and one-of-a-kind experiential in-person events, guests and agents will perfect the ship’s design, culinary and entertainment offerings.

Dream Makers will put their design, experiential and foodie skills to the test on Celebrity’s newest ship, making decisions across key spaces, including the ship’s seven, new, yet-to-be-revealed experiences. Dream Makers will make their mark on the Celebrity Xcel by:

Choosing textiles, managing interior design elements and curating service offerings;
Picking their favorite dishes and beverages, choosing table settings and shaping dining concepts; and
Providing input on headline shows, curate props and costumes, select playlists and partake in selections to appoint pivotal entertainment positions onboard.

BORA

We’re taking brunch through the roof at our new alfresco restaurant, Bora. With the best sea views from the top of the ship and an over-the-top Bloody Mary bar, this is more than a meal, it’s a celebration. After the sun sets, Bora brings the flavours of the Mediterranean to your clients table like never before. With the stars above, every table is the best in the house. Dinner is intimate and personalised with elevated cocktails and dishes prepared tableside. So, whether they're in the mood for a deliciously lively brunch or an elegantly romantic dinner, Bora is a must-do for their date night that lasts all day long.

THE BAZAAR

Celebrity Xcel doesn’t just bring your customers to some of the world’s best places. It brings those places along for the ride. With The Bazaar, we’re no longer just blurring the line between ship and shore. We’re erasing the line completely. From the culture, flavours, sights, and sounds of the destinations your customers will visit to the local festivals they’re famous for, the experience is so authentic, they won’t even know you’re not there, yet.
