Celebrity Shares Details on 2025 President’s Cruise

Celebrity Cruises has announced the cruise line’s 2025 President’s Cruise itinerary. Departing on May 17, 2025, the eight-night Norwegian fjords voyage onboard Celebrity Apex will be hosted by Laura Hodges Bethge, president of Celebrity Cruises.

For Captain’s Club members, the annual cruise offers an opportunity for Hodges Bethge and other executive team members to spend time with the line’s guests. The itinerary offers a mix of landscapes, wildlife and waterfalls of the Norwegian fjords with bucket-list opportunities for history buffs, foodies and adventure seekers alike. Destinations include Oslo, Alesund and Bergen with a range of soon-to-be-announced shore excursions, events and experiences.

This year’s six-night President’s Cruise in the Caribbean onboard Celebrity Beyond operated from June 23 to June 29.

Two days at sea were filled with activities, including a pool party with performances from members of the Team USA Artistic Swimming, entertainment from Guinness World Record-holding hula hoopers and the Officers vs Guests pool volleyball game, umpired by Hodges Bethge. “A Conversation with Celebrity” provided the opportunity to ask questions to Celebrity executives. Guests were also treated to performances from West End star Marisha Wallace and Celebrity Reflection captain Kyriakos Matragkas.

The voyage highlighted one of the line’s newest experiences: a stop at Perfect Day at CocoCay. A “Perfect Day” of surprises included jet ski and flyboard stunt performers, Caribbean Junkanoo bands, DJs, an afternoon soirée for Captain’s Club members at Coco Beach Club and more. In Grand Cayman, guests set off on shore excursions hosted by the line’s executive team, with Hodges Bethge hosting a private lunch at Grand Old House, the oldest dwelling in Grand Cayman. A day in Bimini rounded out the trip, where the President’s Cruise took over the island for a private beach club party, before the ship received a send-off with fireworks ahead of returning to Port Everglades.
