Celebrity Cruises Invites Guests to 'Fall' for Northeast in 2009
MIAMI, March 27, 2008
Featuring 10 unforgettable ports and an overnight stay in Quebec City,
Celebrity Cruises' 2009 Canada/New England sailings are a must for
cruise enthusiasts who swoon at the sight of autumn foliage. The
cruises open for booking today.
Although just three sailings comprise Celebrity's 2009 Canada/New
England season, each itinerary offers spectacular views and
Celebrity's signature service with style. The first sailing is a
14-night cruise on September 19, followed by a 13-night voyage on
October 3, and a 14-night cruise on October 16, all on Celebrity
Constellation, round-trip out of Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey.
All three sailings feature an overnight stay in one of Celebrity's
past guests' favorite ports, Quebec City, Quebec. Known for its French
heritage, cobbled alleyways, and the scenic St. Charles and St.
Lawrence rivers, Quebec City offers Celebrity's guests a host of shore
excursions that range from a romantic horse-drawn carriage ride with
dinner in the old quarter to a bicycling tour to the cascading
Montmorency Falls. Each sailing also includes a full-day visit to
Sydney, Nova Scotia, where guests can embrace the local culture
through shore excursions such as "The Heart of the Island," which
takes guests to picturesque Cape Breton Island, highly rated by
National Geographic Traveler. The excursion weaves through rugged
countryside to the Nova Scotia Highland Village, a 50-acre historical
site overlooking the "Great Inland Sea," or Bras d'Or Lakes region.
The three voyages also feature calls on Newport, Rhode Island, and
Boston, Massachusetts, which Celebrity Constellation hasn't visited
since 2007, as well as Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, and
Portland, Maine, where Celebrity offers a shore excursion showcasing
the beauty of White Mountain National Forest and the world's first
mountain-climbing cog railway. Other ports in Celebrity's 2009
Canada/New England season include Bar Harbor, Maine; Halifax, Nova
Scotia; and Saint John, New Brunswick.
Celebrity Cruises offers comfortably sophisticated, upscale cruise
experiences with highly personalized service, exceptional dining, and
extraordinary attention to detail. Celebrity sails in Alaska,
Australia/New Zealand, California, Canada/New England, the Caribbean,
Europe, Galapagos Islands, Hawaii, the Pacific Coast, Panama Canal and
South America. The line also offers unique cruisetour vacations in
Alaska, Australia, Canada, Europe and South America. Noted for "The
Top Cruise Ships in the World," as voted by the readers of Conde' Nast
Traveler (February 2008 readers' poll), Celebrity's current fleet will
be joined by Celebrity Solstice in 2008, Celebrity Equinox in 2009,
Celebrity Eclipse in 2010, and a fourth Solstice- class ship in 2011.
