When the newly transformed Celebrity Reflection begins sailing in 2027, guests will enjoy year-round Caribbean itineraries departing from Fort Lauderdale.

Cruise options will range from quick three- and four-night getaways to Key West and The Bahamas to longer six- and eight-night voyages visiting popular destinations including Aruba, Curaçao, Bonaire, Turks & Caicos, and Grand Cayman.

The refreshed ship will also host Celebrity Cruises’ 2027 President’s Cruise, sailing May 10–14, 2027, giving loyal guests an opportunity to experience the ship’s exciting new features firsthand.

“Celebrity Cruises is constantly dreaming up ways to innovate and elevate what we deliver for our guests, which is what makes this fleet modernization program so much more than a refresh,” said Laura Hodges Bethge, President of Celebrity Cruises. “With Celebrity Reflection, we’re evolving the guest experience in meaningful ways—introducing 13 new spaces designed to help guests relax, explore, and connect in ways that feel effortless and unforgettable.”

The extensive transformation reflects Celebrity Cruises’ continued investment in its Solstice Series fleet, bringing modern venues, enhanced dining, and redesigned gathering spaces to one of the line’s most popular Caribbean ships while preserving the elevated service and premium experience guests have come to expect.
