Celestyal Cruises has launched a new functionality for its trade portal, the company announced in a press release.

According to Celestyal, the new tool will allow its travel agent partners to book cruises and land packages for their clients.

Available via the company’s trade booking system, the function also gives the ability to book pre- and post-cruise hotel stays and land transfers.

All hotels offered are four-star and above, Celestyal said, with private transfers to and from the airport, hotel, and port available.

“We’re thrilled to introduce this new tool allowing our trade partners to offer even more comprehensive and personalized experiences for their clients,” said Brandon Townsley, Celestyal’s Vice President and Managing Director North America.

“By allowing agents to seamlessly book cruise and land packages, including high-quality hotel stays and private transfers, we’re enhancing the overall value and convenience of the Celestyal experience,” he added.

The service is currently available for a number of 2024 and 2025 sailings departing from Athens, which include the three and four-night “Iconic Aegean,” the seven-night “Idyllic Aegean,” the seven-night “Steps of Paul” and the upcoming seven-night “Heavenly Adriatic” itineraries.

Plans are in place to eventually expand the offering to its new itineraries in the Arabian Gulf, Celestyal explained.

After introducing two new ships, Celestyal Cruises completed a full fleet upgrade in 2024.

Now operating the 2003-built Celestyal Discovery and the 1993-built Celestyal Journey, the company is also planning a deployment expansion with the introduction of new itineraries in the Middle East.

Marking the company’s debut in the region, the Journey is set to offer a seven-night itinerary in the Arabian Gulf named “Desert Days.”

The vessel will be joined by the Discovery for the 2025-26 winter, with both ships sailing to destinations in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrein and more.
