Celebrity Edge has officially arrived at its new home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

The ship is now at Port Everglades’ Terminal 25 following the ship’s first-ever, 15-day transatlantic crossing.

Chairman and CEO of Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., Richard D. Fain, said: “The arrival of Celebrity Edge today book-ends a major chapter in the growth of Celebrity Cruises.

“It’s the culmination of years of dreaming, designing and dedication to bring this magnificent ship to life. A new era is truly upon us.”

President and CEO of Celebrity Cruises, Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, added: “The completion of her first-ever transatlantic crossing and arrival at T25 marks such an historic moment for Celebrity Cruises. This has been more than four years in the making.  The collaboration and effort between teams across the world all comes together in this incredible moment.”

Celebrity Edge begins her inaugural season sailing alternating seven-night eastern and western Caribbean cruise itineraries, with her maiden Western Caribbean voyage departing on 9 December, and her maiden Eastern Caribbean voyage departing on 16 December.

In spring next year, the ship starts a range of seven to 11-night sailings visiting cities such as Barcelona and Rome.

Celebrity Edge will be joined by her sister ship, Celebrity Apex, in 2020, and two additional ships in the Edge class will follow in 2021 and 2022.
