Frequently Asked Questions
She measures 130,818 gross tons and 306 metres long by 39 wide, with 16 decks and 1,467 staterooms. She carries 2,918 guests at double occupancy and 1,320 crew, a little over two guests per crew member. She is the smallest of the five Edge-class ships, 21 metres and one deck shorter than Beyond, Ascent and Xcel.
The 2,918 figure is double occupancy, two people per stateroom, and it is the industry's standard basis. The 3,521 figure counts every berth filled, including sofa beds and pull-down bunks in family staterooms. That 603-guest gap shows up during school holidays and summer, and it changes the line at the Oceanview Café buffet and access to the ship's single main pool. Ask your advisor to check the actual booked load for the sailing you want.
She is the first of the series, in service since 25 November 2018, and she never received Le Voyage by Daniel Boulud, the restaurant fitted on Beyond, Ascent and Xcel. She is also the only one of the five without Premium Wi-Fi over Starlink, which is reserved for the four later ships. Her only dry dock was in October 2023 at Chantier Naval de Marseille. In exchange, she is the only ship of the class deployed to Alaska and Australia.
From May to September 2026 she runs 7-night Alaska round trips from Seattle, 22 May to 11 September, calling at Ketchikan, Tracy Arm Fjord or Dawes Glacier, Juneau, Skagway and Victoria. She then repositions from Honolulu to Sydney between 28 September and 17 October 2026. From October she works out of Sydney for the southern season.
From October 2026 to April 2027 she runs 4- to 14-night voyages out of Sydney to New Zealand, the Great Barrier Reef, Tasmania, Fiji and Vanuatu, then returns to Seattle for another Alaska season from May to September 2027. The flight changes completely: Seattle takes one connection through Toronto or Vancouver from Montreal, while Sydney takes one connection through Vancouver and close to 24 hours door to door. For Australia, plan two nights on the ground before boarding; for Alaska, one is enough.
For Alaska and New Zealand, the aft Sunset Veranda gives a genuine open balcony and a wake view, which the Infinite Veranda does not. AquaClass opens the Blu restaurant and the thermal suite, Concierge Class adds dedicated service, and The Retreat covers Sky Suite, Celebrity Suite, Royal Suite, Penthouse, Iconic Suite and Edge Villa with butler and private sundeck. Avoid deck 3 behind the Martini Bar and deck 6 above The Club for noise. Be wary too of starboard staterooms where the Magic Carpet parks.
Four main dining rooms are included: Normandie, Tuscan, Cosmopolitan and Cyprus, along with the Oceanview Café buffet, Mast Grill, Eden Café and Café al Bacio. Extra-charge venues are Eden Restaurant, Fine Cut Steakhouse, Raw on 5, Le Grand Bistro with the Le Petit Chef projection dinner, Rooftop Garden Grill, Magic Carpet on 5 and Dinner on the Edge on deck 16. Luminae serves Retreat suites and Blu serves AquaClass. Bars include the Martini Bar, Sunset Bar, Eden Bar, The Club, Pool Bar and Retreat Lounge.
The Infinite Veranda is complaint number one: the air conditioning cuts out when the window is down, the stateroom heats up when it is closed, and real outdoor space disappears. Reviews from 2025 and 2026 also flag a frequently lukewarm buffet, visible wear on an eight-year-old ship, and a shortage of activities that leads several guests to say they were bored. She has only one main pool, which fills fast on sea days. The absence of Premium Wi-Fi also surprises guests used to newer ships in the fleet.
The four main dining rooms, Normandie, Tuscan, Cosmopolitan and Cyprus, plus the Oceanview Café buffet, Mast Grill, Eden Café, the shows, the pool and the gym are included in every fare. The All Included fare adds drinks, Wi-Fi and gratuities, but on this particular ship the Wi-Fi tier offered is Basic, with no streaming and no video calls. Extra-charge restaurants such as Eden Restaurant, Fine Cut Steakhouse and Dinner on the Edge remain payable in every case. Shore excursions, the spa and overnight room service are also extra.
A daily service charge per guest posts to your onboard account, at a different level depending on whether you are in a standard stateroom, Concierge Class or AquaClass, or a Retreat suite. All Included fares cover it, as do AquaClass and Retreat bookings made on or after 14 July 2022. A separate gratuity is added automatically to drinks at the Martini Bar and the Sunset Bar and to paid meals at Fine Cut or Eden. You can adjust or remove the daily charge at guest relations during the cruise.
On an Alaska season where days are spent at Tracy Arm Fjord and in Skagway, consumption drops and the package pays off more slowly than on an itinerary with many sea days. On the Honolulu to Sydney repositioning, with long stretches at sea, the arithmetic flips entirely. The package covers drinks up to a per-item price ceiling, and the Martini Bar and Café al Bacio are both in scope. Bottles at dinner and premium wines stay outside it.
Celebrity Edge is the only one of the five Edge-class ships without the Premium Wi-Fi tier: connectivity stays at Basic, built for light browsing and email, with no streaming and no video calls. The line confirms on its official page that Premium is available on Apex, Beyond, Ascent and Xcel. In the Alaskan fjords coverage drops in the narrow passages regardless. A guest who has to work at sea should look at another ship in the class.
Camp at Sea takes Shipmates aged 3 to 5, Cadets 6 to 9, Captains 10 to 12 and a teen club for 13 to 17, at no charge during regular hours. There is no nursery aboard and no drop-off care for children under 3; a child must be toilet trained to take part. The ship has no waterslide and no rock wall, and one main pool. The Alaska season, built around glacier days, suits children of about 10 and up far better.
The programme runs Preview, Classic, Select, Elite, Elite Plus and Zenith, with Double Zenith and Triple Zenith milestones added in June 2026. From Elite up you get the daily gathering with drinks from 5 to 7 p.m. and an internet discount, which partly offsets the lack of Premium Wi-Fi on Celebrity Edge. Zenith members receive complimentary Premium internet, which does not apply here since that tier is not fitted. Points accrue per night and by stateroom category, so a Sunset Veranda earns more than an inside stateroom.
Alaska's Inside Passage, between Ketchikan and Skagway, is sheltered and ranks among the calmest cruising anywhere. The picture changes on the Honolulu to Sydney crossing, in open ocean for close to three weeks. Book a midship stateroom on decks 8 to 10 and keep the Infinite Veranda window slightly open: fresh air helps more than any wristband. At 306 metres with stabilisers, the ship absorbs most of the roll.
