DESTINATIONS

Celebrity Xcel dazzles in the Caribbean once she debuts in November  2025, sailing round-trip from Fort Lauderdale on 7-night escapes through the Bahamas, Mexico, Cayman Islands, Puerto Plata, St Thomas and St Maarten. Think sun-drenched beaches, vibrant cultural shore excursions and brilliant turquoise waters – a beach-lover’s paradise.

From May  2026, Xcel sails the Mediterranean, departing from port cities like Barcelona, Rome (Civitavecchia) and Athens (Piraeus). Highlights include calling at Cadiz – a charming seaside town with Andalusian character and centuries-old history – and Funchal in Madeira, where floral gardens and hillside cable car rides await. Explore ancient Roman ruins, savour tapas by the sea, or unwind in sunlit plazas – all in one holiday.
