CELEBRITY Cruises recently held the coin ceremony for Celebrity Beyond, the third ship in the cruise line’s Edge series.
Placing two coins under the keel of Celebrity Beyond to bless the ship as a symbol of good fortune, Celebrity chose a coin from the American Innovation dollar series honouring astronomer Annie Jump Cannon, who was also the daughter of a shipbuilder.
“This is a proud and exciting moment because Celebrity Beyond will continue to elevate an already incredibly innovative and transformative series of ships for our brand and the industry,” said President & Chief Executive Officer Lisa Lutoff-Perlo.
“We have some special surprises planned with Celebrity Beyond and I really can’t wait to share her with the world.”
Pictured holding the ceremonial “good fortune” coins to be placed under the keel of Beyond are Edge Series Project Managers for Celebrity and Chantiers de l’Atlantique respectively, Tobias King and Sebastien Le Boulluec.
