Are you suggesting that Celebrity is going under? 😇

If that's the case how about Titanic?!

[little britain]

I thought the 5 were Edge, Beyond, Apex, Ascent and Pinnacle??

Pinnacle is a Steakhouse on HAL.

RIPOFF

"Ascent" appears to refer to the direction of fares so it's apt.

Pinnacle is the highest loyalty tier on RCI; equivalent to Zenith

I think it's a fine name.  Any idea if this would be an Edge class - and how many Edge class ships are expected?

 

Random fact - my favorite Celebrity ship name is Solstice.

Terrible choice.  It will soon wind up being called Ass-end, I predict

Does this mean the best cabins will be on the ‘Stern’???

Wow! the comedians have come out to play. I gotta say, these feeble attempts at humor will not get you sitting anywhere near Fallon or Colbert. Perhaps a gig deep in the Okefenokee or a stand-up routine at Mount Rushmore. Either way, you would certainly set a president.

I’ve been asked to be an opening act at Branson! And there are feeble humor and then very very bad puns!!!

5 Edge class ships expected. As of Dec 2020 Edge class #4/Ascent is expected in late 2023 and #5 sometime in 2025.

Seems that the M and S class days are numbered...cannot wait to see CC board if/when that happens, bye bye Connie and Millie

According to two diferrent sources (Trademarked names by Celebrity and the official calendar of Grand Cayman) it seems that the next ship for Celebrity will be called....

CELEBRITY ASCENT

 

Is that Cent or Scent?

I know right, S class cruisers are so passionate!

[NMTraveller]

Well at least they will have a new perfume to sell in the gift shop.   I wonder if it will be in a cruise ship bottle.

 

If I booked a cruise on this ship it may be difficult to get past my TA laughing and rolling around on the floor for 5 minutes or more.

For a new ship name, I suggest

 

Celebrity VACCAY

 

-----

Refers to taking a holiday, and the requirement to be vaccinated to be allowed to cruise.

Aaannnd cays are low, sandy islands.

[JackAms]

Very clever, Vaccay, I like it!

Unless Celebrity wants to run a cruise line with only 5 E-class ships, the S-class aren't going anywhere, which is fine with me, I like them. I can't see them getting rid of either class -- it makes the fleet too small and there are some economies of scale.

The Ascent.  Thanks for posting.  Those who are not a fan of E-Class will think a better name would be The Decline!😁

[SummmerInKefalonia]

Well Celebrity's management has seriously DECLINED in the recent years.

Making these mega ships and having them to go to small islands or cities without ports (see Beyond & Infinity in 2023), just because people on the itinerary planning team have origins from these places is ridiculus.
