Celebrity Cruises’ Celebrity Apex Sets Sail From Southampton

Beginning this summer, Celebrity Apex is the first ship from Celebrity Cruises’ Edge Series to homeport in the United Kingdom. The ship features an innovative outward-facing design that sets it apart from its competitors. Itineraries departing Southampton explore locations spanning Northern Europe to the Canary Islands. Travelers can select from four-to-thirteen-night sailings, including the 12-night Norwegian Fjords and Arctic Circle cruise or a trip to Ibiza. 

“We’re bringing one of our most innovative ships, Celebrity Apex, to Southampton, providing guests the opportunity to sail in style directly from the UK,” said Laura Hodges Bethge, President of Celebrity Cruises. “It’s an exciting time as we elevate cruising from the region, enabling our guests to explore and restore with premium facilities, elevated food and drink experiences, and exciting activities and entertainment.”
