Normally I advise cruisers drop luggage in the cabin to run to the spa to book beauty treatments once they board.   But if you’re cruising with Celebrity Cruises you won’t have to do that any longer.

Celebrity is adding spa, salon and personal fitness appointments to onboard activities that may be reserved prior to the cruise to be booked online in advance of the departure.  Over 100 AquaSpa, salon and fitness offerings such as massages, facials, men’s barber services and hair styling

Like other cruise lines, Celebrity is adding to the roster of services and activities which may be booked at their website.  These include beverage packages, shore excursions, specialty dining reservations, and complimentary “Celebrity Select Dining” main dining room preferences.

By mid-November, guests will be able to book spa, salon and personal fitness appointments prior to their cruise on six of the nine Celebrity ships that will offer this option. The first ship to offer this option is Celebrity Solstice, the flagship of the premium cruise line’s stylish new Solstice Class ships. Guests sailing on Celebrity Solstice can currently book and pay for spa, salon and personal fitness appointments up to four days prior to their sailing date. Guests booked on voyages departing on August 21 or later on Celebrity’s newest Solstice Class ship, Celebrity Eclipse, can also book these appointments. On August 26, guests sailing on Celebrity Equinox’s voyages of September 9 or later can book these appointments. The rollout will continue through 2011, when Celebrity Cruises will launch its fourth Solstice Class vessel, Celebrity Silhouette.
