After traversing the Caribbean, Celebrity Edge will transport guests to various destinations in the Mediterranean in summer 2020. Stopping in incredible ports such as Barcelona and Rome, cruisers will be able to explore the many sights of the historic Mediterranean in the day, before retiring to a truly luxurious and welcoming ship in the evenings.
