Celestyal Discovery Launches with New Look and Enhanced Guest Experience

Maiden Voyage of Celestyal Discovery

On March 22, 2024, the Celestyal Discovery embarked on her maiden voyage from Lavrion, Athens, marking a new chapter for the cruise line with the unveiling of its fresh livery. Captain Panagiotis Giakoumatos, alongside his seasoned crew and Celestyal’s global leadership team, extended a warm welcome to guests boarding the inaugural journey.

The vessel’s debut passengers are experiencing the ‘Iconic Aegean’ itinerary, which includes stops at Mykonos, Kusadasi, Patmos Island, and Santorini. The three-night sailing adventure will soon be enhanced with the addition of Heraklion (Crete) starting April 1st. Throughout the season, running from March to November, Celestyal Discovery will alternate between this three-night course and a four-night option that incorporates an extra day in Rhodes.

Having joined the fleet in November 2023, Celestyal Discovery has undergone an extensive multi-million-euro refurbishment. The revamp includes a total stateroom refresh and significant enhancements to the onboard social spaces. Noteworthy additions include Café Nation, a new coffee shop serving illy coffee, a Pizza Oven eatery, and the Discovery Lounge, which will host various brand partnerships throughout the season.

The new livery features an updated Celestyal logo with a modern design, a distinctive blue wave hull inspired by the operations team’s collaborative effort, the signature Celestyal stars, and a unique funnel design that accentuates the ship’s elegant lines.

Celestyal’s CEO Chris Theophilides expressed his delight at welcoming 1,100 guests aboard Celestyal Discovery, emphasizing the company’s dedication to enhancing customer experience. He highlighted Celestyal’s commitment to offering premium, destination-immersive holidays that are unforgettable both at sea and ashore.
