Celebrity already expanding river fleet

The cruise line has already doubled its fleet to 20 ships, before the first even takes to the rivers.

CELEBRITY River Cruises will welcome 10 additional ships to its fleet, which will double in size to 20 by 2031.

The announcement of the new order of ships also marks the start of construction for the cruise line’s first river vessel, which will be named Celebrity Compass.

She will launch next year alongside Celebrity Seeker, and will be followed by Celebrity Wanderer, Celebrity Roamer, and Celebrity Boundless, which will join the fleet in 2028.

The announcement comes as Celebrity opens its 2028 season for booking, which will be its second on the rivers.

This program will feature an 80% increase in European destinations compared to Celebrity’s inaugural 2027 deployment, with more than 160 sailings to over 50 destinations across the continent.

Guests can sail the Rhine to the vineyards of Alsace, follow the Danube to Budapest’s centuries-old market halls, and visit other highlights, including Prague and Vienna.

Itineraries will take guests to 24 new ports, including journeys into the wild beauty of the Lower Danube with a Celebrity-first overnight land stay in Bucharest, tulip-season sailings, and Christmas market cruises.
