YouTube Video Description

Patti and I sailed on the Celebrity Beyond in November 2024 as we cruised Grand Cayman and the A, B, C islands with Captain Leo and Cruise Director Alejandro. We had a wonderful time as we loved the new ship, crew, food, and ports of call. On our final sea day, we had the opportunity to attend a presentation with Captain Leo. He is a very personal, humorous, and informative captain who does not take himself too seriously, but his professionalism and friendliness give you such a welcome feeling of being part of the Celebrity family. Captain Leo covers the beginning of Celebrity Cruise Lines, his background and experience, the planning of cruise itineraries, an overview of the Celebrity Beyond and how it is handled. Captain Leo explains the Parabolic Bow, Azipods, Stabilizers, Bow Thrusters, and the Bubble Making Machine. The main question Captain Leo covers, “Is the Captain always on the bridge driving the ship?” I hope you enjoy this informative presentation from Captain Leo.
