Celebrity Flora due to blossom in 2019

A new and custom-designed ship, Celebrity Flora will mark an evolutionary turning point for Celebrity Cruises. Complete with environmentally-friendly design and luxurious amenities, this ship will make her maiden voyage in May 2019.

She will feature all-suite accommodation for 100 passengers and comprise operating systems designed to have minimal impact on the environment, mainly within the Galapagos archipelago.

Sailing into a new world of cruising

Celebrity Flora is designed to have as little impact on the environment as possible, promoting a 15% reduction in fuel consumption and fewer air emissions thanks to an advanced propulsion system. She also features anchorless technology, with dynamic positioning used as an alternative – allowing the ship to maintain its position whilst also protecting the sea floor.

The ship’s nod towards the Galapagos and its history will make your journey even more immersive.

The Observatory can be found on deck 7 and is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows. It also features a library stocked with books about wildlife and background on the region. Darwin’s Cove on deck 3 houses the guest relations area and is where groups gather before heading out for shore excursions, as well as being where passengers can find the naturalist team to discuss the Galapagos and their daily activities. Visit the shores of this isolated paradise for a chance to peer at the unique tropical wildlife including the Galapagos tortoise, marine iguana and Sally Lightfoot crab.

With so much packed into this luxurious vessel, 2019 can seem a long time to wait. Fortunately, Celebrity Cruises has another member of the fleet due to join in 2018. Celebrity Edge will launch in December 2018, with innovative features, expert technology and playful indulgences to satisfy your cruising needs beforehand.
