Celestyal completes fleetwide rollout of in-cabin guest experience tablets

Celestyal has equipped every stateroom aboard its 1,360-guest Celestyal Discovery with SuitePad in-cabin guest experience tablets, extending the digital platform across its fleet following its successful introduction on Celestyal Journey in January 2026.

The technology is designed to simplify onboard communication and allow guests to manage a range of cruise services directly from their accommodation.

Using the tablets, guests can request onboard services, make purchases through the ship's retail outlets, order room service, request cabin upgrades and reserve tables at specialty restaurants. The devices also provide access to essential voyage information, including deck plans and daily entertainment schedules, reducing the need for printed programmes and promotional material.

The deployment follows the initial installation of SuitePad technology aboard Celestyal Journey, where the system was introduced as the first fleetwide implementation of its kind by the cruise line. Janet Parton, Vice President of Marketing, Public Relations and Customer Experience at Celestyal, stated that the positive response to the technology on Celestyal Journey had led to its introduction aboard Celestyal Discovery, adding that the system had been implemented to provide guests with greater convenience, wider service options and more time to enjoy their cruise.

The rollout forms part of Celestyal's broader digital strategy to enhance the onboard experience by combining self-service technology with traditional hospitality, while streamlining access to information and onboard services throughout the voyage.
