The three groundbreaking Edge® ships (also including Celebrity Apex®  and Celebrity Beyond®) have taken Celebrity’s outward-facing design even further, to enhance your connection with the sea and your destinations. The length of the ships were extended to create even more room for incredible outdoor spaces.
