When Celebrity Cruises’ Celebrity Eclipse launches in April, guests will find the first “Celebrity iLounge” onboard.  

Located on deck six of Celebrity Eclipse, the Celebrity iLounge will house the 26 MacBook Pro’s, classroom and retail area, in addition to display pods, a 56-inch flat-screen TV for use during classes and an accessible workstation.

Designed to offer what guests said they wanted most in an internet café: easy access to the internet, inspiring classes and new products. The Celebrity iLounge is composed of three main areas: a series of 26 workstations where guests can check their email, or print boarding passes; a retail space offering cruisers the opportunity to see and try out the latest MacBooks®, iPods® and accessories; and an enrichment centre where staff will offer guests tips on Mac or iPod usage. “Our new Celebrity iLounge is a direct expansion of our new ‘Designed for you’ brand platform, and our commitment to listen to our guests and offer experiences expressly designed for them” said Celebrity Cruise’s President and CEO Dan Hanrahan.

The Celebrity iLounge will offer a series of engaging new courses designed to suit its guests’ interests – including do-it-yourself photo books, movie editing and web design, through programmes including iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and iWeb. And whether guests are savvy or novice users of Mac or iPod products, Celebrity Cruises certified staff will be well-equipped to assist, following more than 125 hours of training in operating systems, applications and products.
