cruise chef 865 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Just seen a press release to say the brand new ship will be in Europe in 2019 sailing from the UK TO ROME in May, I'm sure this will be a popular sailing as the ship looks amazing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sammy sun 1084 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 I cannot wait to sail on this ship. It's a certainty for me. I've loved every Celebrity cruise I've done and I think they'll do an excellent job on the new-build. If the edge is half as good as the Solstice Class design, I' sure I'll enjoy it.

Davybe 529 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 And looking at the prices we will be paying top whack to sail on her?? Love Celebrity but not that much....Davybe bigrog and B&M 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bumble Bee 107 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 The itineraries look really lovely for her. It's my Mum's big birthday in the Jan of 2019, i think she will be eyeing up one of these for sure, trying to get her to try other company's other than P&O! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leave your car at home and do a one way car rental which also saves on parking charges. Enterprise have a depot just outside gate 8, which is about 150 yards from City terminal.

I'd never thought of doing that, especially if like with this itinerary, you're flying back into the UK. I can't imagine it being too much to hire a car for the day either.

BrianI 85 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 The hire cost will probably be less than two weeks parking. Brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Davybe 529 Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 Just got an offer for the 10 day cruise from Southampton .on Edge. At £2615 pp for a balcony cabin not a hope in hell of us going .....Davybe bigrog 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afcandrew 361 Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 I also had a mail-out and inside prices started at around £1600. Maybe they have already sold a lot of cabins on the US market? B&M 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vamp23 77 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 just wish it would do round trip Southampton Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oldworldtraveller 2222 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Certainly Celebrity are excited about 'The Edge' but will the public share the same enthusiasm. Personally I question the appeal of a moving platform on the side of the ship and what enhancements it brings. When I saw the artists impression I thought it was ugly and looked like an add on. The prices are sky high and agents are trying hard to sell the balcony cabins. Lets wait until nearer the time to see what happens. There is a lot of new tonnage out there offering different experiences so it will be interesting to see how it fares against the competition. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afcandrew 361 Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 A very minor point I know - but - what a stupid name for a ship! 2torts 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
