Celebrity Cruises Takes Delivery of Celebrity Eclipse

Last week Celebrity Cruises celebrated achieving “a perfect 10.” Richard D. Fain, chairman and CEO of the brand’s parent company, Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., and Celebrity’s President and CEO Dan Hanrahan participated in a shipboard ceremony marking the transfer of ownership of Celebrity Eclipse from shipbuilder Meyer Werft to Celebrity Cruises, bringing the fleet to a total of 10 stunning ships.

The stylish new ship will offer Caribbean sailings from the Port of Miami beginning this winter.
