Celebrity Cruises will go big with a new cruise in 2026 – or grand, rather.
The cruise line will offer its first Grand Voyage from Canada to Southeast Asia over more than three months. The sailing will visit 55 destinations in 15 countries over 110 nights, marking the line’s longest cruise without repeating any ports.
“The Grand Voyage offers the ultimate way for guests to indulge their sense of wanderlust, all while enjoying the award-winning service and amenities that Celebrity is famous for,” the cruise line said in a news release Tuesday.
Laura Hodges Bethge, the line’s president, said the itinerary was inspired by its customers’ “love of back-to-back sailings.”
When is Celebrity’s Grand Voyage?
The cruise will depart from Vancouver on Sept. 13, 2026, aboard the line’s 2,852-guest Celebrity Solstice ship. The vessel will be refurbished before the sailing and will have “just come out of dry dock,” according to the release.
Where will the cruise sail?
The itinerary will begin by exploring Alaska, including Hubbard Glacier and Icy Strait Point, before setting off for warmer locales.
“After soaking in the sun on the shores of Hawaii, guests will sail to French Polynesia and Fiji where, in the serenity of the South Pacific, they can snorkel over coral reefs, visit eco-parks with rare protected species, trek through tropical jungles, and explore the rich culture of these island nations,” the cruise line said. Passengers will then head to stops, including in New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia and Thailand.
Singapore, Vietnam, and Hong Kong will round out the trip. Other activities include visiting beaches in Ko Samui; seeing temples; learning to make local recipes in cooking classes and more.
