Celestyal has announced two new F1 sailings for its 2026-27 Arabian Gulf season, the company said.

On Nov. 27, 2026, the 1,260-guest Celestyal Journey will be in Doha for an eight-night Doha F1 itinerary.

The ship will stay in port for three nights, allowing guests to watch all practice sessions, qualifying and race day events.

The ship will then sail from Doha, visiting Dubai, UAE, for an overnight stay, Abu Dhabi, Sir Bani Yas Island, UAE, and Khalifa Bin Salman, Bahrain. Prices start at $839 per person.

On Dec. 4, 2026, the 1,360-guest Celestyal Discovery will be in Abu Dhabi, UAE, for a seven-night Abu Dhabi F1 itinerary.

The ship will stay in port for three nights, allowing guests to watch all practice sessions, qualifying and race day events.

The ship will then depart Abu Dhabi on a four-night Iconic Arabia sailing, calling at Doha, Qatar, Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, and Khasab, Oman. Prices start at $899 per person.

“Returning to the Arabian Gulf for a third consecutive season with both of our ships is a significant milestone for Celestyal, and a clear reflection of the demand we continue to see for this region,” said Lee Haslett, chief commercial officer at Celestyal.

“Our previous F1 sailings have been some of the most successful and talked-about itineraries we have ever operated, combining world-class sporting events with immersive destinations and the ease of a cruise holiday.”

“Building on that momentum, our new Doha and Abu Dhabi F1 sailings for 2026 offer guests even more time in port, seamless access to race-weekend action and the opportunity to explore the Gulf in depth,” said John Diorio, managing director and vice president of business development in North America.

All fares include meals, soft drinks, WiFi, port fees and gratuities.

Race tickets will be available to purchase via Celestyal.

The Celestyal Journey will continue her Arabian Gulf season, operating a new version of the seven-night Desert Days itinerary through March 2027, sailing roundtrip from Doha and calling at Dubai for an overnight stay, Abu Dhabi, Sir Bani Yas Island and Bahrain.

The Celestyal Discovery will sail the line’s three-night, four-night and seven-night Iconic Arabia cruises through March 2027, sailing roundtrip from Abu Dhabi, calling at Doha, Khasab, Dubai, Sir Bani Yas Island and Ras Al Khaimah.

The added cruises are based on the great demand in 2025-26 for F1 sailings.
