Celestyal has signed a three-year agreement with the Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority.
The multi-year partnership, agreed at Arabian Travel Market in Dubai, will promote Ras Al Khaimah as a key destination among Celestyal’s guests.
The agreement also sets out plans to work in partnership with Ras Al Khaimah to offer immersive, exclusive shore experiences to Celestyal guests, beginning in December this year.
Following its inaugural season in the Arabian Gulf, where bookings exceeded targets by 35%, says the cruise line, Celestyal will return to the region with two ships in December this year. It will offer weekly calls to Ras Al Khaimah on Celestyal Discovery over the winter, for the next three years.
The recently refurbished 1,360-guest ship will homeport in Abu Dhabi from 12 December 2025, sailing three-, four- and seven-night ‘Iconic Arabia’ cruises.
The four-night itineraries will sail roundtrip from Abu Dhabi, calling at Doha, Ras Al Khaimah and Khasab in Oman. The seven-night sailings add calls to Dubai and Sir Bani Yas Islan.
Prices start from £698 for two people on a four-night cruise, and £1,138 for two people on a seven-night voyage, with meals, soft drinks wi-fi and gratuities included.
