Cruise for Charity 2024

Jan 21, 2024 to Jan 28, 2024
Celebrity Ascent - Western Caribbean
Join Rainbow Getaways Events for our Cruise for Charity aboard the Celebrity Ascent on January 21, 2024, as we sail to the Western Caribbean to support an LGBTQ+ Charity.
 
During this week-long adventure, you will sail to the Bahamas, Mexico, and Grand Cayman while supporting an amazing LGBTQ+ Charity. Relax in the pool with your included drink package, eat gourmet food in stunning restaurants, and attend private Bears Getaway events throughout the week. 
 
The fourth ship in the revolutionary Edge® Series, Celebrity Ascent, takes the innovative outward-facing design further than ever, creating an even closer connection between you, the sea, and every exciting place on the horizon. Soak up the sun, salt breezes, and stunning scenery in newly expanded open-air spaces. Savor fine dining that rivals anything you’d find on land. And discover even more ways to relax and renew.
 
Higher ceilings. Airier venues. Flowing architecture so every deck, every experience, is seamlessly connected. From the mind-blowing Eden to the sea’s only Magic Carpet®, each Edge Series ship leaves traditional thinking in its wake.
 
Book by September 1, 2023, to lock in the best rates. This is one cruise you don't want to miss!

Health Acknowledgement:

Exposure to pathogens (such as the virus that causes COVID-19) is an inherent risk in places where people may result in severe illness or death. Exposure may occur at any point during your voyage, onboard or ashore. Remaining on board at all times during your voyage will not prevent exposure because pathogens may be brought on board by others, including passengers who choose to participate in shore excursions or activities ashore in our various ports of calls or private destinations. Celebrity's health and safety measures mitigate the risk of exposure but cannot eliminate it entirely. Before booking or sailing on a cruise, all guests should consider their individual risk level for severe illness resulting from pathogen exposure and make an informed travel decision on that basis. We recommend guests with a higher risk of severe illness consult with their doctor prior to booking or sailing with us. 

By booking a cruise with us, on behalf of yourself and/or others for whom you are acting (collectively "you" or "your"), you acknowledge that you understand the risks related to exposure to pathogens and their resulting illnesses while cruising with us, including those relating to guests who are at a higher risk of severe illness. 

Further, you agree to review and comply with the Celebrity Guest Health, Safety, and Conduct Policy, as well as any other health or safety instructions, or other posted signage. Failure to do so will lead to you being denied boarding or may constitute cause for your removal, as well as the denial of boarding or removal of your traveling party, from the vessel.

A deposit of $350 per person is due at the time of booking. Your final payment is due by October 9, 2021. Cancellation penalties may apply:
