Celebrity Apex was launched in 2019 and entered service in 2021 as the second Edge-class ship. She quickly became a favourite among premium-market cruisers who prioritize design, cuisine, and service. She balances modern style with practical comfort: high-quality dining, serene adults-focused spaces, and well-executed entertainment without an over-the-top atmosphere. Seasonal Caribbean and European itineraries make Apex a versatile premium option year-round.

✦ The standout feature

The Magic Carpet platform, which moves between decks and transforms from lounge to tender embarkation space to specialty dining venue depending on time and itinerary.
