CELEBRITY Cruises looks set to tap into the frenzy around the new Netflix show Friends: The Reunion, with US travel agency Fana World Travel operating a special Celebrity Equinox voyage for fans of the beloved sitcom.

The series, which ran for 10 seasons between 1994 and 2004, will be celebrated on board with specially themed events, trivia contests and cooking demonstrations aboard the Caribbean sailing from Fort Lauderdale on 15 May 2022.

“Get ready to eat like Joey, joke like Chandler, cook like Monica, shop like Rachel, yoga like Phoebe and dig like Ross,” prospective cruisers are told, with space limited to 1,000 die-hard cruisers – about a third of the ship’s total capacity.

Bookings must be made via the group’s special website at cruisewithfriends.net, which also interestingly carries a disclaimer noting that “Cruise With Friends Fans At Sea is not endorsed by NBC, Warner Brothers/Warner Media Studios or any entities associated with them”.
