<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">With the launch of its new brand platform, "Designed for you," last  month, Celebrity Cruises reinforced its commitment to delivering the  ultimate combination of ship design, service, cuisine and programs for  cruise lovers. And today, it announced plans for a new venue whose  design, products and programming are sure to appeal to today's cruisers. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">When Celebrity Eclipse - the third in Celebrity Cruises' stylish  Solstice Class fleet of ships - launches in April, guests will find the  first "Celebrity iLounge." Designed to not only offer a hip, modern  lounge ambience, Celebrity also created the space to offer what its  guests said they wanted most in an Internet cafe: easy access to the  Internet, inspiring classes and new products. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Celebrity iLounge is composed of three main areas: a series  of 26 contemporary workstations where guests can check their e-mail,  retain their social media connections, or print boarding passes; a  retail space offering cruisers the opportunity to see and try out the  latest MacBooks&reg;, iPods&reg; and accessories; and an enrichment center where  certified staff will offer guests tips on Mac or iPod usage. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">"Our new Celebrity iLounge is a direct outgrowth of our 'Designed  for you' brand platform, and our commitment to listen to our guests and  offer experiences and programs expressly designed for them," said  Celebrity's President and CEO Dan Hanrahan. "Our surveys show that our  guests rely heavily on the Internet for research, learning and staying  in touch, so we think this new offering will be a big hit, as will the  contemporary online classes offered through the 'Discover' series of our  inspiring and enriching 'Celebrity Life' experiences." </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Enhancing the "Discover" component of its "Celebrity Life" series  of inspiring enrichment and entertainment experiences, Celebrity will  offer in the Celebrity iLounge a series of engaging new courses designed  to suit its guests' interests - including do-it-yourself photo books,  movie editing and web design, through programs including iPhoto, iMovie,  iDVD and iWeb. And whether guests are savvy or novice users of Mac or  iPod products, Celebrity's certified staff will be well-equipped to  assist, following more than 125 hours of training in operating systems,  applications, and products. They also will be poised to illustrate to  guests the differences between Macs and PCs. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Guests eager to expand their collection of merchandise will find  the Celebrity iLounge an enticing venue, too. As an Authorized Apple  Reseller, Celebrity will have products available for guests to purchase,  including iPods, MacBooks, and essential accessories. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">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. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Celebrity iLounge also will be presented on Celebrity  Silhouette, which launches in 2011, and the fifth ship in the Solstice  Class fleet, which sets sail in 2012. </span></p>
