Celebrity Cruises · Premium · Edge-class
Celebrity Apex sits at 6.2 of 10, inside the top quarter of the 176 ships CruiseIndex grades. It is unusually roomy: 45 tons of ship per guest against a fleet median of 41. Crew cover 2.2 guests each, about the fleet norm.
Passengers rate it highest on entertainment, which sits beside the grade rather than inside it.
Graded against every other ship we track, on one curve. The method.
On today’s fares, yes — the best sailing we can currently price scores 7.5 out of 10 for value, a genuinely good deal for a ship of its class.
That is a 7-night Caribbean sailing departing 31 October 2026, from $554 per person in an interior cabin — about $79 a night. A Value Score of 5.0 means a sailing costs what genuinely comparable cruises cost: same class of ship, same region, similar length. Above 5.0 the fare beats that going rate; below it, it does not. Celebrity Apex grades 6.2 of 10 on vessel class, and 4 of 5 from 343 traveler reviews. How the score is built.
Sister ships share a hull, so they differ only in condition. A newer sister is the same vessel, less worn.
Every fare is the line’s own price. Zero markup: the line pays us if you book through CruiseIndex, you never pay more.
