A NAMING event ceremony was recently held for Celebrity Cruises’ new 2,918-passenger Celebrity Edge – the first new ship for the brand in six years.
The event saw 3,000 guests gather to commemorate the official naming of the vessel, with Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai present to wish Edge luck on her many journeys ahead.
“I am so very proud to have Malala Yousafzai as godmother of Celebrity Edge,” said Royal Caribbean Cruises Chairman and CEO Richard D. Fain.
“Malala embodies our commitment to opening the world through education and gender equality,” he added.
Celebrity Edge will make her inaugural sailing in the Caribbean from 09 Dec.
