Celebrity Eclipse to Sail from Southampton

Celebrity Cruises’ Celebrity Eclipse, the third ship in the new Solstice class, will be first of the line’s ships to sail from Southampton for a full season. The ship will offer five European and Mediterranean cruising itineraries from April 2010 designed for travelers who prefer to depart from the U.K. Celebrity Eclipse will offer 26 cruises with a combination of short and longer itineraries. Sailings will range from four-night Cork cruises to 16-night Eastern Mediterranean cruises. The first season of the Celebrity Eclipse features new ports of call for the line, including Toulon (Provence), Cagliari (Sardinia) and Malaga (Spain). In addition, the 2010 summer season of the ship includes overnight stays in Palma de Mallorca on a 14-night Spanish Mediterranean cruise and St Petersburg and Copenhagen on a 14-night Scandinavia and Russia cruise.

During summer 2010, Celebrity Cruises will base all three of its new Solstice-class ships in the European region as the brand seeks to continue growth outside North America. The Celebrity Solstice and Celebrity Equinox will operate from Civitavecchia (Rome).
