Celebrity Cruises has introduced a limited-time End of Financial Year sale for Australian travellers, offering up to $1,000 off per booking plus 75% off the second guest on select itineraries. The promotion applies to new reservations made before 30 June for cruises of three nights or more departing through 10 May 2028. This gives agents and their clients a broad window to secure pricing on both short-haul and long-haul voyages.
EOFY Sale Itineraries and Pricing
The sale covers more than 300 destinations across 70-plus countries, with round-trip options from Sydney as well as fly-cruise departures in Europe and Asia. Key itineraries include:
- 12-night New Zealand Holiday (round trip Sydney) – From approximately $4,599 per person on Celebrity Edge, visiting Dunedin, Christchurch, Auckland, the Bay of Islands, and Milford, Doubtful and Dusky Sounds. Six port days and five sea days allow guests to explore 29 bars, restaurants and lounges.
- 12-night South Pacific (round trip Sydney) – From about $3,389 per person on Celebrity Edge, calling at New Caledonia, Loyalty Islands, Vanuatu, Vila, Mystery Island and Lifou.
- 7-night Greek Isles & Italy (Barcelona to Athens) – From $2,729 per person on the new Celebrity Xcel, with stops in Sicily, Rhodes, Santorini and Mykonos.
- 7-night Norwegian Fjords (round trip Southampton) – From $2,999 per person on Celebrity Apex, visiting Haugesund, Alesund, Nordfjordeid and Bruges, with views from the Magic Carpet and Rooftop Garden.

For agents looking to expand their cruise portfolio, the sale aligns with broader industry trends. Princess Cruises Sets Record with 291-Departure Europe Season for 2028 and Holland America Line Commits to Year-Round Europe Cruises from Late 2027 both signal growing demand for European itineraries, which Celebrity also addresses in this sale.
Why This Sale Matters for Travel Professionals
Celebrity Cruises positions itself as a modern, resort-style experience that combines intimate service with varied dining, entertainment and design. For Australian agents, the EOFY sale offers several advantages:
- Stacked savings – Up to $1,000 off the fare plus 75% off the second guest on eligible sailings.
- Extended sail-by date – While bookings must be made by 30 June, departures run through 10 May 2028, giving flexibility for school holidays, milestone trips or future European summers.
- Three distinct ship classes – The cutting-edge Celebrity Edge, refreshed Celebrity Solstice, and brand-new Celebrity Xcel cater to different client preferences.
Agents should note that the promotion requires checking that the sailing is marked as part of the EOFY or current savings promotion when pricing. Reservations can be made via celebritycruises.com or through preferred travel advisors, ensuring the discount and 75% off second guest are applied before deposit.
For those advising clients on 2026–2027 travel, the sale presents an opportunity to lock in pricing on popular itineraries. Whether clients prefer New Zealand fjords, South Pacific escapes, or Greek Isles and Italy summer sailings, the EOFY offer provides meaningful savings. Celebrity Cruises Overhauls Captain's Club with New Milestone Tiers and Perks also enhances loyalty benefits for repeat guests.
With the booking window closing 30 June, agents should act promptly to secure the best availability for their clients.
