Frequently Asked Questions
The Silhouette measures 122,210 gross tons, 319 m by 37 m, with 14 guest-accessible decks numbered 2 to 16 and no deck 13. She is slightly larger than the Solstice, Equinox and Eclipse, with roughly 1,424 cabins for 2,902 guests at double occupancy. Meyer Werft delivered her on 18 July 2011 and her maiden voyage sailed on 23 July. She is the fourth ship of the Solstice class.
Celebrity's own fact sheet gives 1,424 cabins and 3,320 guests with every berth filled; CruiseMapper says 1,449 cabins and 3,475 guests. The gap most likely comes from cabins added or reconfigured during the 2020 Celebrity Revolution refit and the November 2024 drydock. Double occupancy of 2,902 is confirmed by the official site and is not disputed. Use 2,902 when comparing ships, and expect up to 500 extra people on board during school holidays.
The Silhouette and the Reflection are the only two ships in the class carrying The Porch, a small seafood room, and the Lawn Club Grill, where you grill your own cut. Her Lawn Club has eight private alcoves, more exclusive than anything on her elders, plus an outdoor cinema screen. Her main dining room is Grand Cuvée. She received the Celebrity Revolution refit in 2020, unlike the Eclipse, which never did.
After a spring in Bermuda from Cape Liberty, she reached Reykjavik in June on a thirteen-night crossing via Halifax, Sydney, St. John's and Qaqortoq. She has circled Iceland ever since on seven-night loops branded "Iceland Intensive", which call at Seydisfjordur, Isafjordur and Akureyri. The total solar eclipse of 12 August 2026 was watched from her open decks, off the Icelandic coast. Her final Icelandic loop closes on 22 August 2026, the day she turns towards Boston on fourteen nights through Greenland.
The pattern repeats: a crossing from Cape Liberty on 20 June 2027, an Iceland season through August, autumn out of Boston, winter in Fort Lauderdale. Reykjavik is a seasonal nonstop from Montreal at about five hours, making it the easiest European embarkation in the whole Celebrity fleet. Boston is a ninety-minute nonstop, and many of our clients drive or take the train instead. Watch the one-way itineraries such as Reykjavik to Boston: they need a multi-city ticket, never a return.
For Iceland and Greenland a veranda earns its keep less than in the Caribbean, since it is cold and windy; a Deluxe Ocean View without a balcony on decks 7 or 8 does the job. AquaClass cabins open the Blu restaurant and the Persian Garden, particularly welcome in cool weather. Retreat Sky Suites include Luminae, the Retreat Lounge and the deck 16 sundeck with hot tub and cabanas. If you want the Lawn Club alcoves, book them on embarkation day, because they go fast.
Grand Cuvée is the main dining room, alongside the Oceanview Café, the Mast Grill and the Spa Café, all included. Extra charge: Murano, Tuscan Grille, Le Petit Chef, Sushi on Five, The Porch and the Lawn Club Grill. Blu belongs to AquaClass cabins, Luminae to Retreat suites. Bars include Martini Bar & Crush with its martini show, Craft Social in the former Cellar Masters space, the reworked Passport Bar, the aft Sunset Bar and the Sky Observation Lounge.
Her last major modernisation was March 2020 and no date has been announced for her turn in the Solstice Series programme, so trust no site that publishes one. Recent reviews flag cabin service that varies from sailing to sailing and missing evening turndown on some departures. A steeply pitched embarkation ramp causes trouble for guests with reduced mobility in several ports. And the Iceland season stays cool and windy even in July, which catches part of the clientele out every year.
The Simply Sail fare covers the cabin, meals at Grand Cuvée, the Oceanview Café, the Mast Grill and the Spa Café, the shows, the pools and the gym. The All Included fare adds the Classic drinks package and Basic Wi-Fi. The Porch, the Lawn Club Grill, Murano, Tuscan Grille and Sushi on Five stay extra, as do Icelandic shore excursions, among the most expensive in the fleet. Blu and Luminae are included but restricted to AquaClass and suites.
Daily service charges are added automatically to your onboard account and vary by cabin category. The All Included fare covers gratuities on drinks, not that daily charge. On a fourteen-night crossing from Reykjavik to Boston the total mounts quickly, so prepay at booking. Tipping ashore is not customary in Iceland, which has no bearing on the ship's service charge.
On seven-night Iceland circuits there is a port almost every day and little time on board, so the maths is tight. On the fourteen-night crossing to Boston and the eight- to ten-night Caribbean runs from Fort Lauderdale, the Classic package pays off comfortably at the Sunset Bar, Craft Social and Martini Bar & Crush. The Premium package targets elaborate cocktails and cellar wines. Always count sea days rather than nights.
The Silhouette carries Starlink satellite connectivity, which Celebrity states on her official ship page. Basic Wi-Fi, included with the All Included fare, handles email, browsing and messaging; the Premium tier, needed for streaming, costs extra. Around Iceland and Greenland the high latitude still degrades the signal at times, especially deep in the fjords. In the Caribbean and along the US East Coast the connection is markedly more stable.
Camp at Sea takes ages 3 to 12 in three groups and the ship kept its teen space. The itinerary matters a great deal, though: Icelandic calls involve heavy walking and full-day excursions that exhaust young children. The winter Caribbean season, with Cozumel, Aruba and Grand Cayman, suits them far better. There is no nursery on board, children must be 3 and toilet trained, and infants must be at least 6 months old on day one.
Points accrue by cabin category and number of nights, so a fourteen-night crossing in AquaClass earns much more than a seven-night Iceland circuit in an inside cabin. Tiers run from Preview to Zenith, with two higher levels added on 11 June 2026, Double Zenith at 6,000 points and Triple Zenith at 9,000. The specialty dining discount applies at The Porch, the Lawn Club Grill and Murano. Status is reciprocal with Royal Caribbean.
The North Atlantic between Iceland, Greenland and Boston is the liveliest stretch of her year, particularly in late August and September. The Iceland circuit itself hugs the coast and stays more sheltered, except in a sustained westerly. The winter Caribbean season out of Fort Lauderdale is generally placid. A cabin on decks 7 to 9 amidships moves noticeably less than a forward veranda on deck 11 or 12.
