The Edge class with the volume turned up — a longer, larger 2022 evolution on Caribbean and Mediterranean seasons.
Celebrity Beyond is the Edge class after a growth spurt. Delivered in 2022 at around 140,600 tons for 3,260 guests, she runs noticeably larger than the class's opening pair, with the added volume spent on the public spaces and open decks the class is bought for.
Her deployments keep to the Caribbean and the Mediterranean — the two regions where premium megaships compete hardest, and where her scale is easiest to sample on a short flight plus a week aboard. The signature kit survives intact, Magic Carpet included, alongside the Retreat suite enclave for guests who want the size with a buffer.

Winters in the Caribbean, summers in the Mediterranean — the classic premium rotation, run here at the class's enlarged scale.
The Retreat concept scales up with the ship, giving suite guests a private ecosystem inside a hull with room to spare.
She is the stretched evolution — around 140,600 tons and 3,260 guests, larger than the class's first two ships. The concept is unchanged; the proportions grew, mostly to the benefit of open decks and public venues.
Caribbean and Mediterranean seasons form her rotation. That puts the class's enlarged design in the two most bookable regions on the premium calendar.
Yes — the movable platform remains a class signature, and Beyond carries it. Expect it to operate as a venue on sea days and, in some ports, as part of tender operations.
They are effective twins, with Ascent the more recent delivery. Condition and content are near-identical, so decide on itinerary, date and fare — and if everything ties, take the sailing with the better stateroom position.
