Celebrity Cruises is changing four itineraries in the Eastern Mediterranean that are scheduled to depart between early September and late October 2025.

Sailing onboard the Celebrity Eclipse, the ten- to 12-night cruises were initially set to visit destinations in Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, Egypt and Israel.

Cruising roundtrip from Piraeus, the ship was poised to visit ports including Santorini, Mykonos, Kusadasi, Limassol, Alexandria, Haifa and Ashdod.

According to change notices being sent to booked guests since late July, the sailings will now operate as open-jaw cruises between Piraeus and Ravenna.

In addition to the Aegean Sea, the new itineraries will sail to the Adriatic, with visits to destinations in Greece, Croatia, Montenegro, Malta and Turkey.

While keeping the original cruise lengths and sailing dates, the voyages added several new ports of call, including Chania, Rhodes, Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar, Kotor and Valletta.

The new itineraries for the four sailings are already available on Celebrity Cruises’ official website.

After completing its fall season in the Eastern Mediterranean, the Celebrity Eclipse is set to offer a ten-night repositioning cruise to Spain ahead of a trans-Atlantic crossing to Fort Lauderdale.

The open-jaw cruise sails from Piraeus to Barcelona on October 20, 2025, and feature visits to Greece, Italy, France and Spain.

The Eclipse then sails from Barcelona on October 30, 2025, kicking off a 13-night cruise to North America that also sails to Portugal and Bermuda.

During the 2025-26 winter season, the ship offers a series of six- and eight-night cruises to the Caribbean departing from Celebrity’s homeport in Port Everglades.

Celebrity joins a growing list of cruise lines that are changing itineraries for the Red Sea and the Middle East scheduled to sail in 2025.

Over the past few weeks, MSC Cruises, Seabourn and Crystal announced plans to replace voyages to the region.
