The schedule of cruises from Miami has been updated at MiamiCruiseGuide.com, including all the cruises offered by Celebrity Cruises between now and the middle of 2013. Celebrity currently limits their departures from Miami to the period between October and April, with four, five and seven day voyages to the Caribbean. There are also a couple of “repositioning cruises” from Miami available that can take you to Europe or through the Panama Canal to San Diego.
For the 2011-2012 season, Celebrity will have Celebrity Millennium and Celebrity Eclipse based in Miami. Celebrity Eclipse was added to the fleet in 2010, the latest member of the “Solstice” class of cruise ships. Choose a cruise on Eclipse and you can enjoy unique amenities like the “rooftop” Lawn Club or the AquaClass staterooms. Eclipse starts making 7-night trips to the eastern Caribbean on November 12, 2011 and continues doing that every week through April 14, 2012. Eclipse’s last trip of the season with be a 13-night Transatlantic cruise from Miami to Southampton, England.
Celebrity Millennium will be making shorter 4- and 5-day trips from Miami to the western Caribbean during the 2011-2012 season. Starting on October 4, 2011 Millennium will alternate 4-night and 5-night cruises until April 16, 2012. Celebrity is moving Millennium to the West Coast next year – you can move with it on a 15-night Panama Canal cruise that departs Miami on May 12, 2012 headed to San Diego. Millennium will make the same Miami to San Diego trip again in the Fall of 2012, leaving Miami on October 7th.
When they start cruising again from Miami later in 2012, Celebrity will bring in two different ships – including the brand new Celebrity Reflection. Reflection is the last of the “Solstice” class ships to hit the waves, benefiting from some “last of the class” upgrades to the Solstice amenities. Reflection’s first couple of cruises will be in Europe, followed by a Transatlantic trip from Barcelona to Miami that sails on November 18, 2012. The first Celebrity Reflection cruise from Miami will be a short 3-night trip to the Bahamas, followed by a series of weekly 7-night eastern Caribbean cruises from December 8, 2012 through April 13, 2013.
Also departing from Miami in 2012-13 is Celebrity Constellation, taking over the 4- and 5-night voyages to the western Caribbean that include stops in Jamaica, Cayman Islands, Key West and Cozumel, Mexico. The first of Constellation’s 5-night western Caribbean trips from Miami leaves on December 5, 2012. The schedule alternates 4 and 5 day trips through April 11, 2013.
