Hope Floats in the Caribbean


Captain Kate McCue, first female captain of a major cruise line, is the skipper of Celebrity Edge, which is currently joined by several other ships in the "neighborhood" as she put it in her Instagram post. The captains from different ships and cruise lines joined together at 7:30 PM for a ship horn salute. Watch the video on IG. #HopeFloats

"On March 20th we started something special. With ships from different companies congregating in the same "neighborhood" it was a perfect opportunity to celebrate our solidarity."

We were fortunate to sail on Celebrity Edge last December, before the Coronavirus spread across the globe. Captain Kate is a bright example of the future. We wish her, all the captains, and crew calm seas. Stay healthy.   Our hearts are with you and your families as you are apart during these difficult times.

We look forward to re-booking our guests on cruise sailings once this health threat is over.





On March 20th we started something special. With ships from different companies congregating in the same "neighborhood" it was a perfect opportunity to celebrate our solidarity. As a sign that we're all in this and we'll get through it together, we invite all ships, (currently with over 250,000 crew members onboard around the globe), to join in a horn salute at 7:30 every evening going forward. We sound our horns, to let our crew and the world know that while we are strong, safe, and healthy on board, we are thinking of those at home and hoping the same for them. Until our safe returns to our home ports, we wish them fair winds and following seas. You can follow the nightly salute at #HopeFloats . ⚓πŸ”ŠπŸ’™πŸ™#wewillbeback #strongertogether @cliaglobal @celebritycruises @celebrityedge @royalcaribbean @azamaravoyages @meinschiffofficial @halcruises @carnival @princesscruises @msccruisesofficial @pocruises @norwegiancruiseline @maersk_official @cunardline @seabourncruise @aida_cruises @coscoshippinglinesnvrsk @cmacgm @ocean_network_express @hapaglloydag @hapaglloydcruises @evergreen_ships_official @hyundai_worldwide . 🚒Thanks to the following ships for helping to start the movement! #celebrityedge @celebrityreflection #navigatoroftheseas #symphonyoftheseas #harmonyoftheseas #oasisoftheseas #anthemoftheseas #marineroftheseas #zuiderdam #veendam #volendam #nieuwstatendam #nieuwamsterdam 🀜Thank you to our awesome Broadcast Team for this video: Bonnie, AJ, Maciej & @cruisedirectorsimon πŸŽ¬πŸ’™πŸŽ₯ #lifeintheSeaSuite #seastheday #life #sea #cruise #sail #captain #beyondborders #wonderawaits #celebritycruises

EdgeCited to Set Sail on Edge Again

Second Time on 
Celebrity Edge

November 2018 we sailed on Celebrity Edge for one of the Trade and Press Preview sailings. We immediately fell in love with the ship, and vowed to sail on her again. Two days just wasn't enough time to fully experience the ship.

 Celebrations at Sea 

After the cruise we checked upcoming sailings, and as luck would have it, there was a Western Caribbean itinerary during my birthday week. A cruise can enhance any special celebration, so we decided to book a Sunset Veranda cabin.   Last time we sailed on Edge, we were in an Infinite Veranda.  This way we could experience the difference in order to share with our guests.

We are especially EdgeCited that Captain Kate McCue will be the skipper for this sailing. Follow her on Instagram

We began our story about Celebrity Edge in our Post:

Most Anticipated Ship of 2018 Arrives Florida


The story continues here (we'll pick up where we left off).  For convenience, we'll combine both experiences into one.  We'll do more videos this time as well.  Be sure to follow our social media accounts so that you can sail along with us.
