Celebrity Cruises · Premium · Edge-class
Celebrity Edge sits at 5.9 of 10, inside the top quarter of the 176 ships CruiseIndex grades. It carries 45 tons of ship per guest (median 41). Staffing is generous at 2.1 guests per crew member, against 2.4 across the fleet.
Passengers rate it strongest on the food and weakest on entertainment — reported separately, and not part of the grade, which measures the ship itself.
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 6.8 out of 10 for value, better than the going rate for a ship of its class.
That is a 11-night Australia & New Zealand sailing departing 1 December 2026, from $3,576 per person in a balcony cabin — about $325 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 Edge grades 5.9 of 10 on vessel class, and 3.8 of 5 from 842 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.
