Celebrity Cruises will become the first cruise line to resume cruises to the Caribbean when one of their cruise ships departs from St. Maarten later this evening.
Celebrity Millennium will sail a seven night cruise to the Southern Caribbean marking the return of large ocean cruise ships to the world’s most popular cruise destination. The cruise ship will sail two different itineraries on week long cruises to the Caribbean this summer.

Celebrity Cruises’ President and CEO, Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, said that this is a significant moment for their guests, crew, and communities in the Caribbean as the cruise line officially sets sail again.
This sailing is the first large ocean cruise ship to embark on a Caribbean cruise since March 2020.
