Bahamas Escape – Key West & Freeport

About this cruise

3 nights, 2 ports, one very easy decision. This one heads out of Fort Lauderdale on December 18, 2026 and visits Key West and Freeport. Every single day is a port day. 2 stops with no sea days in between. You're busy from start to finish. Lighthouses, clam chowder, and cold Atlantic air. The East Coast at its most itself. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Celebrity Reflection takes the food seriously, with 12 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. If you like having options (restaurants, bars, activities, entertainment), a big ship delivers that. Pro tip: fly in the day before. Fort Lauderdale has plenty to offer, and you'll board relaxed instead of rushed. The timing adds to it: swapping cold weather for sunshine and sea air is the whole pitch for a winter cruise. If you've been thinking about a cruise, this 3-night sailing is a strong place to start.
