Celebrity Cruises is to roll out Xcelerate, its high-speed wireless internet infrastructure across its entire fleet.
Already available on Celebrity Reflection, Xcelerate will soon roll out to the remainder of the line’s large ships. However, the 100-guest Celebrity Xpedition, which sails year-round in the Galápagos Islands, is not scheduled to receive Xcelerate.
Xcelerate offers four times the ships’ existing internet bandwidth, allowing guests to benefit from faster web browsing, accelerated page loads and more reliable video streaming capabilities.
“Xcelerate is going to give our digitally connected guests a new opportunity to share their amazing travel experiences with the world in real time, whether docked in Europe’s sought-after ports of call or gliding through the ocean on all of our large ships, anywhere in the world,” said Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, Celebrity Cruises CEO and president. “We know that this is what our guests expect – it’s what we expect when we travel too – and we are thrilled to be answering that expectation with Xcelerate, which offers some of the fastest access at sea.”
Guests will be able to choose from various Xcelerate packages, all of which can be pre-booked before departure or purchased onboard for the same rate.
