Celebrity Cruises' has announced that its last Solstice-class ship is to be called Celebrity Reflection.
The ship, the fifth in a series that has cost the cruise line $3.7 billion, launches in November 2012. Celebrity says the ship will have new features, but is keeping mum on what they are for now. Probably because they don't know yet.
However, the cruise line has confirmed it will have that famous half-acre real grass lawn, an iLounge where you can play with - and buy - Apple equipment and Qsine, which they bill a "food-as-theatre dining experience" because it's all about weird and wonderful presentation (sushi lollipops or spring rooms in springs).
"It's a fantastic restaurant," someone told me at a glitzy industry awards gathering last night, where Celebrity walked off with a best cruise line award. "The only problem is you order everything and eat too much."
Celebrity Reflection will join sisters Celebrity Solstice, Celebrity Equinox and Celebrity Eclipse, which are in service, and Celebrity Silhouette, which launches in August next year.
