CELEBRITY Cruises has confirmed Celebrity Equinox will begin sailing from Fort Lauderdale on 25 Jul.
The deployment follows approval of Equinox’s restart plan by the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, and will follow the landmark 25 Jun recommencement of Celebrity Edge, which will be the first large cruise ship to operate in American waters.
The Equinox announcement means nine of the 14 ships in the Celebrity fleet now have plans to resume sailing by mid-Sep.
Equinox will sail with at least 95% of crew members and guests vaccinated against coronavirus, and from Aug, all guests aged 12 and over will need to have been jabbed.
Other health & safety measures include staggered arrivals and departures, contactless transactions and face coverings in the terminal.
Equinox has recently undergone a makeover as part of the “Celebrity Revolution” program, and features redesigned staterooms and suites, reimagined restaurants, bars and lounges (CW 05 Jun 2019).
Importantly for Equinox’s Aussie clientele, she also features more than 40 handcrafted boutique beer selections.
